MILLGROVE, ON – Despite losing power steering around Lap 60, Treyten Lapcevich muscled his way through the second half of the June 30 JRS Auctions OSCAAR Super Late Models presented by Just Foam It Gold Rush 126 to score the checkered flag at Flamboro Speedway.
Lapcevich took the The Car Guy green flag from the second row and remained in the fight at the front of the field throughout the night. He avoided an incident ahead of him on the Lap 58 restart following the fuel break, then used the ensuing restart to take the lead from Dustin Jackson. From there, the driver of the No. 16 paced the field the rest of the way en route to Hoosier Racing Tire / Bicknell Race Products Victory Lane.
Jake Sheridan earned the Shepherd Media Fastest Qualifier Award and appeared poised to dominate the early stages of the event. However, contact with Glenn Styres on the previously mentioned restart sent him pit-side for repairs. The driver of the No. 52 wasted little time charging back through the field, taking over second on Lap 90, but was unable to mount a late challenge to Lapcevich.

Andrew Gresel’s return to the driver’s seat resulted in a smooth and consistent night as he finished third to complete the podium ahead of Dustin Jackson and Glenn Styres. Trevor Monaghan overcame a pair of incidents to finish sixth, while Blake Childers came home seventh after making contact with the outside wall in Turn 3 while battling for a podium position. John Owen finished eighth ahead of Ryan Dick and TJ Edwards. Edwards’ night came to an end on Lap 58 following contact with Monaghan and the outside wall in Turn 1.
Brandon Passer finished 11th, followed by Jaden Cretacci, Scottie Lamp, Dwayne Baker, Dario Capirchio, John Baker Jr., Glenn Watson, Brad Pearsall, and Todd Campbell. Unfortunately, several drivers saw their evenings end early due to mechanical issues.
Adrian Foster was also in attendance but suffered an engine failure during qualifying, while Mike Miller experienced a mechanical issue in practice.
