Wayne Smith of Timberlea, NS was second,
ahead of Shawn Turple of Enfield,
NS. Chris Hughes of Brackley Beach, PE
and Dale Holmes of Westcovehead, PE rounded out the top five.
Smith won the halfway leader
award and the Most Laps Led Award. Over
2000 fans saw 21 cautions slow the event, which took 2 hours and 25 minutes to
complete.
White and Frank Fraser of Shubenacadie,
NS won heat races. Holmes won the Dash
for the Pole, featuring the top eight finishers in the Atlantic Tiltload Time
Trials. Kent Vincent of Crapaud, PE blistered the track record by nearly a full
second on the 1/4 mile oval, at an average speed of nearly 68 miles per hour,
nearly 5 miles per hour quicker than last season’s fastest time. None of the top five cars opted to take the
Rockico Truck and Trailer Pole Challenge.
Twenty-six of the Maritimes top
drivers attempted to qualify for the Main Feature on the new asphalt at Raceway
Park. The Parts for Trucks 100 was the
first event on the new asphalt, which was laid by racers from Prince Edward
Island and those that donated to the Racers Pavement Fund. The Racers Pavement Fund was formed in early
2007 by a group of stock car racers, team members and racing enthusiasts who
shared a common concern about the future of Stock Car racing on Prince Edward
Island (courtesy of the RPF website).
They completed their mission to lay the new asphalt for the Parts for
Trucks 100 and they received a standing ovation from the crowd for their
efforts.
The next
stop on the CARQUEST Pro Stock Tour is on July 7th at 6:00 p.n. at
Scotia Speedworld near Halifax, NS.
