The # 16 Giant Tiger car was in action for the second time in 3 nights. Paul started 5th in his qualifier and moved up to second with 3 or 4 laps to go. While passing # 37 Rob Degeer,on the outside for the win, Rob slid high and we were forced to avoid an accident with him. Paul recovered to finish second.. In the feature race, Paul started on the outside of the front row, and took the lead on the first lap. Four laps later and a re-start had the #24 Andy Warbutton pass us for the lead. Three laps later Paul paid him back with a fantastic pass on the outside to regain the lead We survived another restart, and led 21 0f the 25 laps on route to our second feature win in three nights! What a week, and Sat's win guarantees the GT team a spot in the US nationals in Lanier Georgia in October. This was our biggest win, in the biggest race of the year. The team celebrated on the track, and we dedicated the win to all Canadian Forces Pers. serving overseas. This was a tough week in Petawawa, and we wanted to honour all members, and especially Randy from our team, and a good friend Mike who was seriously injured last week .
Our next races are in Kawartha this Sat Sep 16th, and in Barrie on Sun Sep 24th. watch for updates
