Peterborough, ON (July 03, 2017)- It promises to be the biggest event in the history of the Trailers Plus Eastern Ontario Legends Series. Saturday, July 8, at Canada’s Toughest 1/3-Mile Paved Oval, the popular tour will award a trio of guaranteed starting spots for the US Legends Asphalt Nationals on October 13 and 14 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Bullring.
“This will be the first time that Peterborough Speedway has hosted a National Qualifier,” said Jeff Drimmie, who along with Andrew McFadden, Geordie Ledson and Kevin Foisy make-up the team of EOLS officials. “The top finishers in the Pro, Semi-Pro and Masters divisions will each advance to the big show. Teams will be running a 30-lap main event, with increased prize money throughout the field.”
With Matt Haufe already owning a fist full of feature event wins on this year’s tour, he’ll definitely be one of the cars to beat, but Drimmie says he expects every driver in the starting line-up to bring their best run to the table with so much on the line. Series officials have also arranged to have an open test session for Legends drivers – Friday, July 7th, from 4:00 ‘til 7:00 – at Peterborough Speedway. Teams can test (one car on the track at a time) for just $10.00.
On raceday – Saturday, July 8th – pit gates will open at 2:00, with the spectator areas unlocked at 4:00 and the night’s first green flag at 5:00. Because its also Fan Appreciation Night, general admission grandstand tickets are just $2.00.
