Two top fives for LeLiever at Peterborough
Early night success for Barrie Honda/Georgian Pontiac//Thermoseal
Industries Monte Carlo at Peterborough
PETERBOROUGH, ONTARIO Brad LeLiever had good reason to be wearing an
ear-to-ear smile after the heat races at Peterborough Speedway on Saturday
night. "Our Barrie Honda/Georgian Pontiac/Thermoseal Industries Monte Carlo
has been the best its been all year. The Holgate Motorsports crew has given
me a car that I can compete for wins with."
LeLiever finished a strong third in the first heat, then backed that up
with another strong finish in the second heat race in fourth. "We have been
good tonight, but I am worried about the inversion. While I am happy to
start on the front row, the outside is not the place to be here."
LeLiever had more problems to contend with than just being on the outside
during the feature. Just a few laps in the exhaust started to leak, then
break, which robbed his engine of power. "This is really tough, all the
cars are so close, if you loose just a little bit of power, you just go
backwards."
LeLiever was able to keep the car running, and finish a strong seventh. The
good news for the team is that they have moved up to seventh in the points
standings, just 11 points out of sixth.
