@GoNuclearSeries • @CornwallSpeedway •CORNWALL, Ont. (July 3, 2016) – Charlie Sandercock drove from the fourth starting position to take the lead from Adam Turner on lap 10 and led the final 25 laps to win the Valley Automation and Control Cornwall Clash presented by Guillevin International on Sunday night at Cornwall Motor Speedway. The win is Sanercock’s second straight on the Go Nuclear Late Model Series tour.

Andy Mayhew (No.1 A&A Haulage) and Turner (No.92 Village Variety) started on the front row for the 35-lap main event and battled side-by-side for the opening seven laps. The two drivers exchanged the point position four times before Turner claimed the top spot on lap eight.

Sandercock (No.57 Bellevue Fabricating) took advantage of the two cars separating and passed Mayhew for second on lap nine and one lap later took the lead from Turner exiting turn two.

“The track was great. We took the green and it was a pretty good run between the top three,” Sandercock said. “I had the option to go through the middle a couple of times but I backed out of it. I knew it was a long race. The opportunity came along later and we took the hole, then carried on from there.”

“I get nervous running up there,” Turner said of his ability to run the top lane early on. “I think I should have been even higher getting in to the corner and I would have been in better shape, but you had to get to the bottom first and Charlie did that.”

Phil Potts (No.29 Vanderlaan Building Products) drove to third on lap 13 and was part of a three-car breakaway from the rest of the field. On lap 15, Sandercock hit traffic, but was not slowed as he navigated both the high and low lanes without much difficulty.

At lap 25, Sandercock’s lead was two seconds over Turner, which equated to about a straightaway on the racetrack. Potts began to pressure Turner for second at the same time, but never got closer than a car length of the runner-up spot.

With two laps to go, Turner mounted a charge and reduced Sandercock’s lead to 0.8 seconds as the leader caught another group of lapped cars. At the white flag, Turner was attached to the rear bumper of the No.57 and appeared to have an excellent run entering turn one. A bobble in turn two, however, set Turner back three car lengths down the backstretch for the final time, eliminating his chance of victory.

“I thought I was going to have a chance on the last lap, but I don’t know if somebody kicked up some water in turn one because I thought I blew a left-rear. The car turned sideways and I had to regather it,” Turner explained. “I think if I could have got a run, I would have been in good shape and I might have got him off turn four.”

Sandercock’s win was his 10th in series history, breaking a tie with two-time series champion Dale Caswell (No.118 Predator Racecars), making him the winningest driver in series history. The win was also Sandercock’s first at Cornwall.

Potts completed the podium with his third-place finish, his second-straight top-three finish with the tour.

“We might have made the wrong change. We didn’t have enough forward drive off. Good in and good in the middle, just not enough off (the corner). Still, it was a blast. The track is always so fun to run here,” Potts said in victory lane.

In qualifying heat race action, Chris Fleming claimed the opening heat win before Charlie Sandercock edged Chad Homan by just 0.009 seconds at the start-finish line.

Up Next

The Go Nuclear Late Model Series will be back in action on Sunday, July 24 at Humberstone Speedway in Port Colborne, Ont. and Monday, July 25 at Ohsweken Speedway, near Brantford, Ont., for the $2000-to-win Northern Crate Nationals.
