Kool Kidz-Corrak 360 Sprint Cars Dylan Westbrook extended his lead last Friday night with his seventh Kool Kidz-Corrak 360 Sprint Car win of the season when he held off a hard-charging Scott Kreutter. Westbrook, the defending division champion, now holds a 76-point lead over Caistor Centre driver Cory Turner with five scheduled points features remaining. Jim Huppunen is currently third, but there are just 13 points separating him, fourth-place Mack DeMan and fifth-place Tyler Hendricks. Ryan Turner sits sixth in the standings ahead of Steve Lyons, Chris Steele, Mike Thorne and Shawn Sliter, who round out the top-10.
Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Cars The Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Cars have a new point leader as Shone Evans took over the top spot last week following a pair of runner-up finishes. The lead is a slim one though, just eight points over St. Thomas, Ont. native Jesse Costa. Holly Porter is third, but just holds only a 12-point advantage over Aaron Turkey. Lucas Smith sits fifth with only a two-point advantage over sixth-place Hannah Ferrell. Jacob Dykstra, Dereck Lemyre, Jerry Hill and Josh Hansen complete the current top-10 with four points nights remaining.
Middleport Mechanical Thunder Stocks A smooth and consistent week for Dave Bailey saw his point lead atop the Middleport Mechanical Thunder Stock standings grow to 47 markers over Logan Shwedyk. Ken Saragent sits third and is just nine points back of Shwedyk. Trevor DeBoer and Christopher Hale round out the top-five. The Middleport Mechanical Thunder Stock division is the only one at the track where each of the drivers in the top-five have earned a win already this season. Billy Bleich Jr. sits sixth, just four points back of Hale while the most recent winner Ryan Beagle is seventh. Mark Bazuin, Jim Lampman and Blake Bomberry Jr. occupy the remainder of the top-10.
HRW Automotive Mini Stocks A strong run last Friday night cemented Gillian Hils’ lead at the top of the HRW Automotive Mini Stock standings. Her advantage is 39 points over Matt Nuell, who earned his first Feature win two weeks ago. Nick Masi has slipped to third in the standings, but is only four points back of Nuell. Sean Iftody is fourth and Jonathan Ayrton currently hold the fifth spot. Behind them, Dusty DeBoer, Tristan Da Silva, Kyle Wert, Mike Sarantakos and Tim DeBoer complete the top-10 with five races remaining.
