34 - PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, July 23, 1991 "Scugog's Community Newspaper of Choice" Monika Campbell proudly displays the 44-inch muskie that didn't get away, although not for lack of trying. She caught the 25-30 pound monster in Lake Scugog on July 1. Local lady reels in 44-inch Muskie Fireworks of a different kind were going off on July 1 for Mo- nika Campbell and Len Bowler. The Carnegie Beach couple decided to try their luck fishing in Lake Scugog. (They move into the area from Oshawa on June 21.) Mr. Bowler said his wife en- joys fishing but never catches anything big. Until Canada Day, that is. Mrs. Campbell, armed with a spinning rod, reel and a Rapa- la, hooked onto a 44-inch mus- kie. She didn't know how big the fish was until it jumped out of the water and danced along the surface onits tail. "She couldn't believe the size of it," Mr. Bowler said. It took Mrs. Campbell 30 minutes to land the 25-30 pound monster. The muskie didn't give up easily, Mr. Bowler stated, add- ing the couple almost lost it when the net they were using broke as the muskie tried to wiggle free. Luckily, Mr. Bowl- er was holding the net over the boat at that point. ~The muskie is now being pre- pared for mounting and the couple expects it to become a permanent fixture in their home by November.

We had cars flipping. We had cars bashing and crashing. We had a Budweiser balloon leaking. But mostly we had lots of cars racing - hard. It was the Bud 250 Weekend at Mosport International Speedway featuring the CASCAR Late Models, the radical ISMA Supermodifieds and the feature event, the American Canadian Tour, back for its second appearance this season at Canada' newest 1/2 mile oval. The CASCAR Stockers got the action rolling on Sunday afternoon as 31 cars took the green flag for their 100 lap feature. Michigan's Andy Farr set the early pace but on lap three, rookie driv- er Don Thompson Jr. took his 1990 Chevy Lumina to the lead with the #79 Ford Thunderbird of two-time Florida CASCAR champion Don Mal- lat in close pursuit. Thompson and Mallat raced nose to tail through the remaining laps and somehow managed to survive several accidents which resulted in six caution flag periods. With only six laps remaining in the contest and again under the yellow, Mallat snuggled up onto Thomp- son's rear bumper and when the green flag fell the two competitors bolted away from the rest of the field. Mallat several times tried to stick the nose of his car inside of the Lumina's racing line and finally, with three laps to go, he managed to outpower Thompson on the inside of corner four. Rac- ing in formation to the checkered flag it was Mallat besting Thompson by a scant one-quarter of a second. David Whitlock in another T-Bird was third with Mississauga's Rob Neely and early leader Andy Farr rounding out the top five. Next up on the schedule was the first Canadian appearance of the International Super Modified Association {ISMA} cars in six years. These 1800 pound amazing racing creations boast 467 cubic inch, big block Che- vy engines pumping out approximately 800 horsepower. To keep all of that power pressed onto the track the cars also possess a great huge wing mounted directly over top of the driver. And this tricky wing even moves. Somehow connected to the fuel metering system, the wing is hydraulical- ly tipped steeply down as the driver backs off of the gas when the car en- ters a corner. In this position the wing acts as an air dam to slow the car and provides enough downforce to maintain high cornering speeds. As the driver gets back onto the throttle, the wing levels out for less drag and a higher top end speed. Even the tires on these things are weird. Oh, there's four of them alright, but each one is radically different in size, vary- ing from high and wide on the right rear power corner to low and narrow onthe left front. Supermodified is indeed an understatement. After seeing how these cars are built and watching how they move and act, the race itself was almost anticlimactic. Twenty five starters thundered away at the green flag with the King of the Supermods, Bentley Warren, the 1990 ISMA champ, in the lead. Warren withstood all challengers until lap 24 when last year's series run- ner-up, Gary Morton from Stouffville, took advantage of slower traffic and elbowed his way past with an inside move at the end of the backstraight to take the lead. Morton led the remaining laps and took the checkered flag ahead of Warren and New Yorker, Pat Abold. And now for our feature presentation, 100 laps with the ACT Tour. Junior Hanley, the winner of the previous race at Mosport, led the 36 car field to the green flag in his Ford Thunderbird and then outdragged Oshawa's Randy MacDonald and defending ACT champ Robbie Crouch to corner one to claim the lead. Persued and harrassed by first Crouch, who retired on lap 17 with a broken driveshaft, and then by MacDonald, Hanley defended his position until the handling went off in his car, forcing him to ride high on the track. Nova Scotia native, Rollie MacDonald, took advantage of this situation to slip past into the #1 slot but with just seven laps to go in the race, Hanley retook the lead which he never relinquished. Rollie held onto second place at the checkered with namesake but no rela- tion Randy MacDonald finishing third. Roger Laperle of Montreal and 1989 champion Russ Urlin rounded out the top five. The race was delayed by a total of seven extended yellow flag peri- ods, the most spectacular accident coming courtesy of Alan Long of Kanta- ta. After slamming the corner four wall, Long's Lumina turned sideways and rolled, sliding 300 feet down the front straight on its roof. Fortunately, Long emerged from his racer unhurt. With this victory, Hanley now leads the ACT point standings and will try to clinch the championship when the series returns to Mosport on the 14th of September. :
