 The
first race at the Ohsweken
Speedway for the Southern Ontario
Sprints in 2007 was a night to
forget for Dick Mahoney. The #79
headed into the event with high
hopes but ended upside down when
all was said and done.
Mahoney
headed out for the third heat
event on the evening. It was a
heat that saw plenty of passing
and action on every lap. Late in
the qualifier Daryl Turford lost
control of his car in the second
corner. He tried to gather it up
but ended up right in the path of
Dick Mahoney. Dick did his best to
avoild the #29 but caught the car
and was airborne.
Dick
walked away uninjured from the
scary crash and joked that he 'had
the first flip of the year out of
the way'. The #79 team
was not able to repair the car for
the B-main and was finished for
the night. The DNF now puts Dick
18th in the SOS point standings
after two events.
