The 12th annual Super Saturday Bracket Bash and fourth points meet took place this past weekend at the dragway. 122 competitors ignored the shaky forecast and were rewarded for their commitment as we nearly completed the entire three-day program. Friday evening time trials and Sunday’s program were fully completed but extremely high humidity levels and area lightening ultimately thwarted the completion of Saturday’s eliminator.
In the Box category 10 competitors shared a $6360 purse. The remaining entries included Lorne Buchanan, Michael Whynot, John Croft, Tony MacNeil, Darryl Stewart, Brandon McNeil, Stuart Burke, Bruce Howatt, Mark Howes and defending champion Clayton Howatt.
The No Box category was down to 17 entries and split on a$6400 purse. Money winners included Chris Chapman, Clayton Howatt, Bruce Howatt, Brian Robar, Glenn Frizzell, Tony MacNeil, Jeremy Keans, Bruce Riley, Dani Rippey, Peter Marshall, Cory Sprague, Scott Sprague, Tim MacKay, Budd Murphy, Paul Pothier, David Massey and Warren Cottreau.
The Junior Dragster category sponsored by Cottman Transmission and Pro Tech Roofing & Construction was run to completion. The final saw Ashley “Taz” Walker from Sackville square-off against Kale Johnson. Walker lit the red while Johnson took a .062 start and 12.456 ET to the victory. Morgan Rodgerson picked-up third in the category and Johnson also pocketed the $50 prize from Pro Tech Roofing & Construction best light award. Congratulations to our young drivers!
Sunday’s program featured the 4th point’s race of the Greenfield racing series and the third stop on the Atlantic Stock-Super Stock tour. The day ran start-to-finish without interruption or delay and under relatively sunny and very warm conditions. There were 29 Super Pro, 33 Pro, 10 Sportsmen, 4 Sport Compact, 8 Bike /Sled, 7 Junior Dragster and 15 Stock-Superstock that made the call for qualifying. Here are Sunday’s eliminator results:
