EDMONTON, AB- Following a disappointing finish to an otherwise stellar outing in the inaugural NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil1 event at Edmonton International Raceway on July 11th, veteran Mark Dilley is focused on a strong run at Saskatoon’s Auto Clearing Motor Speedway.

Dilley acclimated himself to Edmonton International Raceway almost immediately, during the ‘Alberta Has Energy 300’, pacing the field across two afternoon practice sessions before timing in second quickest in qualifying.

“We had a phenomenal car at Edmonton”, stressed Dilley when reached for comment. “These Micks Motorsports guys really outdid themselves. It was one of the best cars I’ve had in years”

The Barrie, ON veteran ran in the runner-up position for the first 40-laps of the race, before a rear-end failure on lap-40 sidelined his Leland Industries/Johnsonville Sausage No. 02 for an extended stay on pit road.

“I’m proud of my guys for getting us back on track after we lost the rear end”, said Dilley. “We could have given up, loaded the car and moved on, but they worked through it. They changed the gears and we were able to make some laps”

“We were better than our 19th place finish. There’s no doubt about that. But, given the circumstances, I’m incredibly proud of our team”

Following his run at Edmonton International, Dilley is eager to return to action on Wednesday, July 16th at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway for the ‘Velocity Prairie Thunder 250’.

“If our car at Auto Clearing is half as good as it was at Edmonton, I think we’ll have an excellent chance to run at the front”, smiled Dilley.

“They have a beautiful facility in Saskatoon”, continued Dilley. “I’ve always loved racing there. The track’s been good to us – we finished 2nd there last season – so hopefully we can build on that and get this team their first win of the season”
