In the October 3rd edition of Spencer Lewis’ Inside Track Motorsport News Short Track Notebook, Mike Nelson tells us about the final Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup event of the season, and Matt Pritiko, Gord Shepherd and Tommy Robb offer their previews of the Peterborough Speedway Autumn Colours Classic.
2014 Delaware Speedway Pro Late Model champion Matt Pritiko has announced he will return to the Peterborough Speedway Autumn Colours Classic this season. The London, ON star has only made one previous ‘Classic’ start, securing a podium finish at the event in 2012. We asked Matt his thoughts as he prepares to head back for the 114-lap Pro Late Model event. Click here for Matt’s predictions and be sure to follow on Twitter @MattPritiko.
2014 Barrie Speedway Ltd. Late Model champion Gord Shepherd (above, by Ashley McCubbin) recently took the time to chat with us about the upcoming Peterborough Speedway Autumn Colours Classic event on October 10th, 11th and 12th. ‘The Smoke’ will stay busy throughout the 3-day event, fielding entries in both the Ltd. Late Model and Pro Late Model division, in search of his first career ‘Classic’ victory. Click here for Gord’s video preview and follow the Oro-Station, ON standout on Twitter @GordShepherd10.
