 The
Southern Ontario Sprints ran their
first double header weekend of the
season and for the #79 team it
seems like their fortunes are
beginning to turn around.
On
Friday night the SOS ran at the
Ohsweken Speedway. 43 cars were in
the pit area for the first race of
the year at the Big O. Dick
Mahoney came out flying in his
heat and led to the checkered flag
picking up his second heat win of
the season. The feature wouldn't
be as kind to Dick as the #79
would find itself 20th after all
was said and done. Chuck Hebing
went on to win the race over
Warren Mahoney and Adam West.
The
SOS then headed east for a
Saturday night stop at the
Brighton Speedway. Dick once again
came out swinging and notched his
third heat win of the year. In the
20 lap feature Rick Wilson would
beat out Glenn Styres and Warren
Mahoney to the line while the #79
team would grab a top ten
finishing out in the 8th position.
Dick now sits 16th in SOS points
exactly 200 points behind leader
Glenn Styres but only 62 points
out of the top ten.
Dick
Mahoney and the #79 team will get
back into action on Sunday June
18th at the Humberstone Speedway
in Port Colborne, Ontario. |
