Concord, NC-July 26, 2010-

When short track speedway promoters put together their yearly race schedule, they do so with the knowledge that weather could throw a monkey wrench into their best laid plans. For 2010, Kawartha Speedway officials promised their drivers, teams and fans that they'd do everything possible to make-up any shows that may have been cancelled or delayed due to weather. When this year's edition of the NAPA Auto Parts ACT Late Model Summer Sizzler was rained-out Friday, July 9th, Promoter and General Manager Derek Lynch and his team went to work to find a new date for the popular event.
“It took a bit of time, a few phone calls and an e-mail or 2 but I'm happy to announce that we've finalized plans to make-up the 7th Annual show,” said Lynch. “The $3,000.00 to win invitational race - to be run in three 50 lap segments - will now be scheduled for Friday, September 10th. Other schedule revisions were required to make everything fit.”
Here's a look at how everything has been arranged:
- Friday, September 3rd (addition to the announced schedule)
NAPA Auto Parts ACT Late Models, Better Carpet Thunder Cars, Hasiuk Trailer and Container Rental Mini Stocks 50 lap invitational and Ontario Legends Series. Gates open at 3:00, racing at 7:00.

Kawartha Speedway Announces Make-up Date for Late Model Summer Sizzler
By Jim Clarke, Kawartha Speedway PR/Clarke Motorsports Communications

Mack DeMan had a 'perfect' night as he finished first in everthing he raced as the Lucas Oil Can-Am Midgets were at Grand Bend Speedway (Ont). They ran their show on Sunday night because of the potential of severe storms on Saturday cancelled that race.
DeMan was quick out of the box, fastest car in practice, won his heat race, started on the pole and lead all 25 laps. Thanking sponsors Crown Steering and Brake and Lucas Oil, DeMan said 'finally all the pieces fell together tonight' and the car was great. With only one caution at this tight 1/4 mile track, the field couldn't catch up as DeMan extended his lead.
The green flag flew and before the first lap was complete, four cars made contact exiting turn three. David Balych had front end damage and was out of the race. Todd Cresswell, James Gray and Kent Turnbull went to the back of the field at the restart.
DeMan was quick at the restart as Chris Holman, Greg Smulders and Darren McLennan ran 'elbow to elbow'. Current points' leader Rob Neely ran 5th but motor issues took him out of the race on lap 5. Holman continued to fight off Smulders and McLennan, both veterans of this small track, until lap 13, when Smulders made a great move around a lapped car and McLennan followed, forcing Holman to 4th place. Daniel Bois rounded out the top five. DeMan had 'checked out' with large lead over the field.
Hard charging Barry Dunn started 11th and moved into the top five two laps later.
Corey Moesker made his way through the field from the 14th starting spot to catch Bois and pass him and Cresswell on lap 20. McLennan passed Smulders for second place with 3 to go but there was not enough laps left to catch DeMan.
The checkers flew for DeMan, followed by McLennan, Smulders, Holman and Moesker.
Heat were won by Cresswell and DeMan. The 'B' feature was won by Dunn.
The Lucas Oil Can-Am Midgets head to Sauble Speedway (Ont) for the Canadian Holiday double header for the Home Hardware Series.
Final finish for the Lucas Oil Can-Am Midgets at Grand Bend is....1. MACK DEMAN, 2. Darren McLennan, 3. Greg Smulders, 4. Chris Holman, 5. Corey Moesker, 6. Barry Dunn, 7. Todd Cresswell, 8. Daniel Bois, 9. James Gray, 10. Stef Haas, 11. Tom Kyle, 12. Kent Turnbull, 13. Earl Caine, 14. Carey Hickson, 15. Rob Neely, 16. David Balych. DNS. Rob DiVenanzo.
Top ten in points for the Lucas Oil Can-Am Midgets as of July 25th....1.ROB NEELY...1208, 2. Darren McLennan...1096, 3. Greg Smulders...1066, 4. Todd Cresswell...1037, 5. Corey Moesker...1032, 6. James Gray...1015, 7. Barry Dunn...983, 8. Chris Holman...963, 9. Daniel Bois...944, 10. Mack DeMan...942

Mack DeMan 'sweeps' Lucas Oil Can-Am Midget Event

For Immediate Release From Jim Irvine
Merrittville Speedway Public Relations

Thorold, Ontario (July 25) - “We've really got to thank our fans … it was a tough night,” expressed Merrittville Speedway co-owner and winner of the 50 lap Jerry Winger Memorial L. St. Amand Enterprises 358 Modified Feature Pete Bicknell, “we got through the first shower and thought we were clear … and then it came back - our race teams and our officials did an awesome job helping out too - without them we wouldn't have been able to get the night in - thanks so much to everyone.”
The Hingston Metal Fabricators Night at the races that underwent some refabricating even before it started with the rain delay of the Lucas Oil Nostalgia Night hosted by Merrittville Speedway's Reunion Committee faced two rain delays resulting in a more than 2 hour wait for each Lucas Oil Weekly Racing Series division's feature event.
When it was all said and done - Hingston Metal Fabricators showered feature winners with Cash Bonuses. Joining Bicknell in a 5 driver Victory Lane Celebration were Greg Panunte, Graham MacKay, Josh Sliter and Garnet Wilson in the L. St. Amand Enterprises 358 Modified, Original Pizza Logs Sportsman, Hoosier Stock, J&S Heating and Air Conditioning Modified Lites and Turn 4 Collision 4 Cylinder Divisions respectively.
After the first hit of rain the 2010 L. St. Amand Enterprises Wall of Fame Inductees were announced in front of the grandstands rather than the customary CAA Niagara Stage while the track was being run in.
20 years ago the tribute to Merrittville Speedway's Alumni all began with local racing pioneer Bill Willard Senior as the first inductee. Joining his father and daughter (former Sportsman Champion) Tammy Willard is Allan Willard. Opening the inductions was former driver Bob Hatt.
For biographies on Hatt and Willard and other Alumni by Reunion Committee Chairman Rick Kavanagh visit .
Following the pre-race ceremony, 2009 Inductee and Pastor Howard Disher paid tribute to Alumni who have recently passed including Don Ledingham. “Gramps” and his #31 Vintage Race Car were loyal supporters of Reunion Nights and his nephew Rob Ledingham paced the start of the Jerry Winger Memorial with the car in his honour.
Joining in the main event's parade laps were Bill Willard Senior's grandchildren BJ Willard in his own 77Jr Sportsman and Tammy Willard in her cousin Cody's #7.
Second generation driver Todd Gordon was first to lead the 50 lap Jerry Winger Memorial with two early cautions slowing the pace. The most notable - lap 5 when Rob Pietz made heavy contact with the front stretch wall.
Just prior to the yellow flag Mat Williamson had taken over top spot with Gordon back in control on the restart. While under caution Gordon stopped on the track to point out to officials some debris before racing resumed and when it did Williamson quickly overtook Gordon once again.
Pete Bicknell joined in the battle for top spot with the front runners going three in the battle for P1. Bicknell and Williamson would take off in their own cat and mouse chase before Bicknell pulled away to a comfortable margin - all by lap 10.
Lap 11 saw another caution and on the restart it was Mike Bowman joining the Bicknell and Williamson war. Racing to the lap 20 mark Williamson again mounted another challenge but Bicknell was able to hold his own. Just prior to halfway caution once again eased the pace with rookie Chad Chevalier now sitting in third spot.
Chevalier and Williamson were into quite a race for the runner up spot allowing Bicknell to pull away from the younger drivers. Chevalier eventually took the spot and with 15 laps to go was some 5 car lengths behind the leader.
With 10 laps to go the leaders were coming into lap traffic allowing Chevalier several chances to close in on the leader. At the finish however it was Bicknell in front by a car length.
Bicknell, Chevalier and Williamson were followed by Mike Bowman and Scott Wood.
Rich Farraway was first to lead the 25 lap Original Pizza Logs Sportsman Feature before Jamie Gilbert took control the first time down the backstretch. An early caution slowed the pace after Ryan Susice fell victim to a flat tire. With Gilbert out front on the restart quite a battle erupted behind. Rob Knapp, Brad Rouse, Farraway and Greg Panunte were 3 and 4 wide.
Approaching the half way point Panunte found himself in second although almost half a lap behind Gilbert.
With 10 laps to go Panunte had made up a lot of ground and with lap traffic playing a factor - Gilbert now had Panunte right on his rear bumper. After clearing the slower cars Panunte was now out front by a half a car length at the white flag.
At the checkers it was a whole car length for Panunte with Gilbert having to settle for second. Rob Knapp. Brandon Easey and Brad Rouse closed out the top 5.
The family of Don Ledingham presented Panunte with the Don Ledingham Memorial Award after his win.
“I prefer a drier track,” said a relieved Panunte post race, “it plays more into a driver's hands then but a wins a win … we haven't really done much since the start of the season - I didn't think we were ever going to get back to Victory Lane.”
Ron MacAulay set the pace at the start of the Hoosier Stock Feature before Graham MacKay took control out of Turn 4 to complete lap 3. With the leader pulling away from the field - the battle for second was the one to watch between Vince Fargnoli and Al Sleight. MacKay had ran away to almost a half lap lead before caution on lap 11 slowed the event after Ed McNamara lost a wheel off his car in Turn 4.
While under caution - the event almost went under red flag conditions after a major fire developed under the hood of Charlie Lynch's car. Lynch was able to pull off the racing surface to the aid of officials.
With MacKay out front once again on the restart - Fargnoli and Sleight resumed the race for second. Quickly Ken Sargent joined in however a little too quickly as he was penalized two spots for being out of line in the return to racing.
Sleight would eventually shake Fargnoli but could not catch MacKay by the finish.
“I really didn't know I had that good of a lead,” admitted MacKay in Victory Lane, “it's nice not to have to come from the back of the pack - it's all about having fun this year.”
MacKay, Sleight and Fargnoli were followed by Paul Wichert and Kevin Knapp.
After a false start in the J&S Heating and Air Conditioning Modified Lite Feature Derek Bredin was in control before Blair Young took control on lap 3. Young would soon face a challenge from Randy Hollingshead, Josh Sliter and Paul Klager with Ryan Grady too.
Along the backstretch of lap 9 Josh Sliter took over top spot and right away he was off to about a ¼ lap lead. With 5 to go the gap had stretched for Sliter who ran away to his 5th straight victory.
“My Uncle (Shawn Sliter) and Jamie (Gilbert) have been helping me with this car for like 3 weeks,” thanked Josh Sliter who remains undefeated since June 27th, “and wow … is it ever coming together!”
Sliter was followed by Klager, Hollingshead, Young and Grady.
“We just got a good start and just rode it,” relayed Garnet Wilson in Turn 4 Collision Victory Lane, “we have had so many problems this year … I can't describe how great it is to be here … you name it … it's happened to us!”
There was no stopping the elder Wilson on this night though. Right away he was off to a comfortable lead. In fact the race to watch was for second between Tony Kelly and third generation driver Austin Wood.
Kyle Pelrine and Damian Gore rounded out the top 5 in the early going and the 5 drivers had opened quite a lead on the rest of the pack.
Late in the race however contact between Pelrine and Gore had Gore sent to the pits early but Pelrine was able to rejoin the event despite losing several positions with no yellow slowing the field.
In the closing laps it was still the race for the runner up spot that allowed Wilson to pull away from Kelly and Wood. Wood - grandson of Wall of Famer Lyndon Wood had just won his first ever feature win this past Sunday at Humberstone could not get by Kelly but nonetheless a fine third place finish.
The late race incident shuffled the finishing order with Rob Overholt and Aaron Wiley avoiding the incident to take 4th and 5th spots.

Whissell would complete the race scoring his first top-ten finish of the year taking the checkered flag in ninth spot. “Our goal was to finish top-ten and we were able to achieve that” said the satisfied driver. “The guys all worked so hard during the off season on the #44 SMS Equipment/Komatsu Ford and through the first couple of events it's going to be a real motivator for everyone” he added.
Joining in the post race celebration were over fifty invited guests. “This is kind of our home race, it's only a short drive from Calgary and we have a lot of clients and employees and family members with us and it was really nice to be able to have such a good showing for everyone” said Whissell.

The event at Autodrome Drummond will mark the first World of Outlaws race in the Province of Quebec, which will be the fourth inaugural event for the series in 2010, and will be the first ever 410-winged sprint car race at the banked four-tenths-mile.
The World of Outlaws raced in Canada for the first time in 1979 at Victory Lane Speedway in Winnipeg with Sammy Swindell winning that event. The series has competed at three different tracks north of the border in the last 31 years, with seven drivers taking the checkered flag over that span, including five that will be in action at Autodrome Drummond.

Steve Kinser is right behind him, just 36 markers out of the top spot as he seeks his record 21st title. Jason Meyers is currently third only 45 markers out of the lead as he too chases his first title.
Saldana and Meyers each were victorious in Canada last season, with Saldana winning at Castrol Raceway and Meyers picking up the checkered flag at Ohsweken Speedway, while Kinser scored his first win north of the border in 2008 at Castrol Raceway in Edmonton. Donny Schatz, the four-time and defending series champion, who is fourth in points, also has won in Canada, as has Jason Sides, who is fifth in the standings.
The Buzz:
· Another great points race is shaping up this year, with Joey Saldana currently leading Steve Kinser by just 36 markers with Jason Meyers third, only 45 behind, with those three drivers leading the series in wins this season.
· The World of Outlaws will make two separate trips to Canada this season, with the first being this week, followed by a stop at Castrol Raceway in Edmonton in late August.
· Jason Sides has won twice in Canada with the World of Outlaws, with both of those
