 The
2009 Southern Ontario Sprint tour
headed to Brighton Speedway for
the second time in the young
season. For a change the weather
was nice and the forecast was
clear.
As
Dick unloaded the car he and son
Warren knew it could be a long
evening ahead as neither team had
crew members available due to
other commitments. Little did they
know what a long evening it would
be for them. The #79 started the evening
off with a 4th place finish in his
8 lap qualifier.
In
the 20 lap main event things got
wild off the drop of the green
flag. The #42w of Rick Wilson spun
in corner two causing a multi-car
pileup. Involved with Wilson were
Jamie Collard and both Dick and
Warren Mahoney. While Warren would
go on to make repairs, Dick was
forced out of the event for the
night. He would be credited with a
15th place finish which keeps him
locked in the 9th place in SOS
points after three rounds.
Dick and the #79 team will
continue their 2009 campaign as the Southern
Ontario Sprints head to Brighton
Speedway on Saturday July 11th for Round
#4. Race time in Brighton, Ontario is 7pm.
