GRAND BEND —. It was Performance
Unlimited night at Grand Bend Micro
Speedway Saturday and the show that
was put on was some of the best racing
that I have seen in -a long time.
In the Allsport Junior Micro Sprint 'B'
division it was the #73 of Brett Vodden
from Port Franks (Hi Tech Auto Care)
and the #8 of Steven Hayes from St.
Thomas (D H Machine & Tool) picking
up heat race wins. The feature race
went green to checkered and was non-
stop excitement for the entire race.
After a long fought battle it was the
$19 of Mitchell Stutt from Forest (Roy's
Autobody) earning himself a feature
victory.
In the Allsport Junior Micro Sprint 'A'
division it was the #11 of Chris Hearn
from Chatham and the #20 of Nicholas
McGlone from ..London , (Proline
Autobody) collecting heat race Wins. In
Ole feature event we saw 12 cars run-
ning nose to tail and side by. side bat,
ding for a feature victory. After pick-
ing off .9 -cars. the #72 of Shawn
Thompson from Ailsa Craig (Thompson.
Motorsports) took command of the lead
with only glow laps to go and held:
..onto the lead until the.. checkered flag-
flew.
In the Aqua Fina Mini Sprint division
it was the #43 of Stephen Rees from
-Parkhill (SNE Winnebago) and the #55
of Bradley Phillips from London pick=-
ing up heat race wins. In the feature It-
was the #30 of Greg Smulders from
Dorchester (Woodstock New Holland)
piloting his car.into victory lane..
In the Mug Rootbeer Mini Super
Truck- division it was the #18 of Darcy.
McLennan from I ai ibeth (Husqvarna)
capturing both heat race victories. It
was by far the bestracing racing I have 'seen
in awhile, and from the reaction of the
spectators. it was some of the best rac-
ing that they have seen, too.
It was the #3 of Shaun Jennison of
Grand Bend and McLennan running
side by side and swapping the lead
back and forth on several. occasions for
the entire race.
As the white flag flew indicating one
lap remaining, the two leaders caught
up to lap traffic heading in to turn #1.
Jennison went low and had a little bit
of contact with the lap car, McLennan
went high and the lap car stayed in the
middle.
This is the way these three trucks
entered tuns #3 and the way they exit-
ed' turn #4 three wide as the fans stood
in anticipation to see who would come
out on top. There was a roar from the
crowd -and Jennison (Goodwrench)
edged ' out the McLennan by an inch at
the finish line to capture a well-
deserved checkered flag. ' • - •
In the Pepsi Micro Sprint division it
was a three -peat night for the #54 of
Darrell Limon out. of Watford.
(McRobert Fuels) taking home two heat
race wins and a feature victory. The
excellent night of racing for Limon was
enough for him to regain the points
lead.
Next week's sponsor is Odyssey X-
TreTne Technologies. .This is also the
weekend we will draw one lucky spec- •
tator to take home the Husgvarna
Chainsaw. If you have yet to come out
and see the races, you don't know
what! you are missing::I• strongly sug-
gest you come out to the races, trust
me you won't be disappointed.
