Blackburn does it again!!!

After what looked like it could have turned in to a rain out, the sun popped out and a double rainbow appeared just in time, and Jeff Blackburn found the Pot of Gold.  The skies were heavy and overcast when the pits opened for the race teams, and just before the racing began the clouds opened up and the rain began to fall.  Thanks to the crew of Peterborough Speedway with their satellite tracking, we knew it wouldn't last long, and within an hour the races were back underway on a dry track.

It was a Bakers Dozen that showed up for the Hurricanes in Peterborough Saturday night, and it was that magic number that worked for Jeff Blackburn, Car #7 as he took the Checkered Flag for the Feature when he jumped in to 1st position in the 13th lap of a 15 lap feature, after working his way up the field from the 4th starting line.
The battle for that sweet spot began early as Adam Tyo, Car #27 who started at the Pole, took the first 4 laps in first position to the cheers of of the crowd.  Then it was  AJ Emms, Car #10's turn, and he battled clean and hard to maintain the lead for the next 9 laps.
There were no guaranties in this race folks, and when 7 & 10 came across that finish line it was within a fraction of a second that the win was decided, coming in 3 wide from the 4th turn with Car #48 of Brian Woodland sneaking up and taking the 3rd.
This was good clean Hurricane Racing at its best !

and
Adam Carrothers of Sutton ON, Car # 45

Also,
we welcome back for his second run with the Hurricanes,
Richard Woodland, Car # 84 of Orangeville ON

All of these new drivers for the hurricanes bring years of experience on the track and all performed well for the evening after getting in to their cars for the first time this season.
Car #45 took 8th and #98 took 9th, finishing the race after a clean battle with the rest of the team.
Richard Woodland was a DNF for the feature ofter his coil quit, but that didn't upset this veteran driver, as he had a Heat win already tucked in to his back pocket for the night.
