Kawartha Speedway - Just Get in it and Drive

Kawartha Speedway’s Hasiuk Trailer and Container Rental Mini Stocks regularly treat fans to some of the best side-by-side racing anywhere in the province.  Numbering more than 20 strong on a weekly basis – with even higher car counts during scheduled special events – the 4 cylinder crowd brings their ‘A’ game every time the green flag waives.  Friday, September 3rd the class will run a 50 lap invitational event, paying a solid $200.00 to the winner.  Plainville, Ontario’s Brad Martin – who currently sits 10th in division points at Kawartha – says he likes his chances in the big race.

“We’ve had some solid runs lately – winning our heat race and the semi feature August 27th,” said Martin.  “For a while, we were over thinking things – worrying about issues like the weekly draw that were beyond our control – but lately we’ve just been running the car and letting everything fall into place on its own.  Its made for a better night of racing for all concerned.”

In addition to the mini stock 50 lapper, the September 3rd show will also feature the Better Carpet Thunder Cars and NAPA Auto Parts ACT Late Models.  The Ontario Legends Series will be on the slate as well, for the second time in consecutive weeks.  Pit gates open at 3:00, grandstands at 5:00 – the same time as rotating on-track practice sessions begin.  For more details on Kawartha Speedway’s 10th Anniversary season – including the Late Model Summer Sizzler Friday, September 10th – see www.kawarthaspeedway.com.
