The
Southern Ontario Sprints had a two
race weekend with stops at the
Ohsweken Speedway and the Brighton
Speedway. Dick Mahoney and the #79
crew had high hopes heading into
the double header as they had
their primary chassis back and the
car reassembled after a hard flip
back on July 8th at Brighton.
Friday
night there were 35 cars on hand
at Ohsweken which made making the
A-main a difficult task. Dick
managed to finish 4th in his heat
race and transfer to the feature
event. The 20 lap A-Main was
anything but successful for
Mahoney has he struggled home to a
16th place finish. On
Saturday night the teams headed
east to the Brighton Speedway for
round 10 of the 2006 season. Dick
would face a handful of problems
throughout the night giving him an
8th place finish in his heat and a
13th place finish in the A-main.
He did however manage to move into
9th in the series standings after
the weekend and sits 406 points
behind new point leader Warren
Mahoney. Up
next the SOS returns to the
Humberstone Speedway on Sunday
August 20th for their final visit
to the 1/3 mile clay oval in Port
Colbourne, Ontario. |
