The anti bullying t-shirts were out in full force at Brighton Speedway this past weekend.
Lucky Seven For Justin Ramsay
After misfortune struck two weeks ago, Justin Ramsay (No.03 Empey Tire) started on the front row for the Brighton Automotive Pro Stock feature and led all 20 laps for his seventh win this season. Ramsay paced the field from the drop of the green flag, but was slowed by a caution on the second lap. Rich Sanders (No.29 Orange Motorsports) pursued Ramsay before the final caution of the race on lap five for debris regrouped the field.
Doug Anderson (No.72 Hunt’s Bobcat Service) drove past Sanders for second on lap eight with a mission to catch Ramsay for the lead. However, the ‘Rossmore Rocket’ had opened what proved to be an insurmountable straightaway-long lead. Ramsay was forced to negotiate some lapped traffic, but ultimately cruised to the win over Anderson, Austin Reid (No.85 Kids R Kool), Jonah Mutton (No.39 Apex Auto) and Sanders.
In heat race competition, driver Wade Purchase (No.53 Independent Alternator and Starter) suffered a broken drive shaft. The broken parts ruptured through the floor of the car, injuring Purchase’s arm. The result was a broken elbow for the Picton, Ont. driver. Brighton Speedway wishes Wade Purchase a quick recovery from his injuries.
Jeff Humphrey Scores Comp 4 Win
Jeff Humphrey (No.2 Off The Hook) dominated the Bill’s Johns Comp 4 A-Main for his first win of the season. Humphrey, who is driving for Bella Cosstick, started on the pole for the 15-lap feature race and led a four-car breakaway from the rest of the field to start the race.
As Humphrey cruised out front, Peter Moore (No.17 Sherry’s Pet Grooming) and Matthew Moore (No.14 Farl’s Auto Body) battled side-by-side for second. The two drivers remained that way over a five-lap period until Matthew Moore emerged with the runner-up spot and took it to the checkered flag behind Humphrey. Peter Moore was third ahead of Josh French (No.08) and Tyler French (No.0 Empey Tire).
McCauley, Lobb Top Stinger Features
Both Quinte Septic Stinger features were completed before the rain delay and produced close-quarters racing. Dylan Lobb (No.7 KC Bobcat) started on the front row of the Junior Stinger feature with pole sitter Wayne Jordan (No.68). Jordan paced the field for the first three laps with Lobb glued patiently to his back bumper. Lobb claimed the lead on lap three and never looked back on his way to a second victory this season. Behind him, Willy Bulten (No.50) and Brittany Golden (No.85 Rapid Rad) exchanged the second spot a handful of times with Golden emerging ahead at the finish.
In the Super Stinger feature it was Arthur McCauley (No.99 East Side Tire) who started on the pole and led all 12 laps for his first victory of the season. McCauley was pursued early by Mark MacDonald (No.28 Cannifton Garage) as the two drivers broke away from the rest of the field. After MacDonald suffered a flat tire mid-race, Chris Lammle (No.95 Lammle Computer Repair) made a bid for the lead, but ultimately fell short as McCauley claimed the checkers.
