Jordan Thomas of Harding, PA, Pete Richardson of Verona, NY and Dane Lorenc of Lancaster, NY are also expected to be among the Patriot regulars in attendance.

They’ll battle Ohsweken’s best, including last week’s feature winner and current point leader Jim Huppunen of Fenwick, Ont. Sophomore Dylan Westbrook of Scotland, Ont. currently sits second in the standings ahead of brother Cory and Ryan Turner. Glenn Styres completes the current top-five in Ohsweken points.

Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Cars
Through two races, Ryan Hunsinger is perfect in Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Car competition with two wins.

In total, 28 different drivers have raced with the Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Cars in 2017.

Middleport Mechanical Thunder Stocks
Like Hunsinger, Dave Bailey has been the only driver to find victory lane with the Middleport Mechanical Thunder Stocks. The Hagerstown driver’s strength over the first two weeks of the season has built an 11-point advantage at the top of the standings over Jim Lampman of Caistor Centre. Derek Lemyre, Ken Sargent and dirt rookie Shawn Chenoweth complete the top-five entering Friday’s action.

HRW Automotive Mini Stocks
The HRW Automotive Mini Stocks have a tie at the top of the standings with Mark Bazuin and Jon Janssens knotted at 166 points apiece. The two drivers each have a win and second-place finish through the first two nights of competition. Behind them, Brandon Janssens, Matt Nuell and Aaron Rewutzsky round out the top-five in the standings.

Gale’s Auto Aftermarket Bombers
Lucas Smith leads the Gale’s Auto Aftermarket Bombers into the third race of the season. Smith won the season opener on May 19 and holds a five-point lead over last week’s winner Jerry Burnham in the standings. Dustin Longboat, Paul Longboat and Jake Maas round-out the top-five in the championship standings.
