Kendal Associated Press Mosport Speedway race recap There are many words that could be used to describe Saturday's racing activities at Mosport Speedway. Action packed, shocking and frustrating, frustrating, all come to mind. In a night filled with some accidents, accidents, fortunately with no resulting injuries, many cars went home in pieces, meaning many long hours of repair work for their drivers. The R.P. Oil Open-Wheeled Modifieds In the Modified feature contest, there seemed to be as many cars sitting on their respective trailers heading for home as there were on the track. . Darren Keaman, winner of one heat race, blew a torque converter in the transmission of his #46 car, Laura Wilmot, who had replaced a transmission transmission between the heat dashes, was eliminated following a hard crash on the front straight with Sean Asselin and Wayne Carson, these two also done for the . night and Adam Adams,, although competing, was fighting a mysterious engine misfire. With only seven cars taking taking the green flag for the class finale, the sprint for the checkers became a two car duel with series rookie John Baker Jr. (#63 Baker's Auto) powering into the lead from the second row, chased immediately immediately by defending class champion Dwight Brown. Distancing themselves from the rest of the pack the top two circled in order, never more than a car length apart until the signal came from the starter's stand that there were two laps remaining. Charging hard off of Turn Four, Brown took his #2 Bourque Transmission car to the outside outside of Baker exiting the corner, corner, pulling alongside the #63 and, amidst a cloud of concrete concrete dust, ("I was a little closer closer to the wall than I thought!"), Brown squirted into top spot, eventually holding holding on for the win, his sixth of the year.
