In synch for competition at St. Joes pool

Donny Schatz led wire to wire to win the first ever World of Outlaws Sprint Car fea- ture in an historic night at Cornwall Motor Speedway Sunday night. The Sprint Car drivers in the business were in town to compete in the $10,000 to win 40-lap event. The biggest crowd in his- tory was on hand as several fans were sent to the infield as we ran out of space in the grandstands. Schatz and Craig Kinser started on the first line, and Schatz took the early lead with Kerry Madsen running third behind Kinser. Schatz got into traffic with 10 laps in the books, he kept a good distance over the rest of the leaders but Kinser closed on to him five laps later as Craig Dollansky took third. Steve Kinser cracked the Top 5 after start- ing in 12th on Lap 23, he got to fourth two laps later and had eyes on the leaders. Dollansky and Craig Kinser got together just as Kerry Madsen brought the first cau- tion with only eight laps to go. Schatz was in front as Steve Kinser got into second after a good battle with Dollansky. But Schatz did not relinquish his early win and took the checkered flag in front of Steve Kinser, Dollansky, Sammy Swindell and Lucas Wolfe, who completed the Top 5. Jiffy Auto Services Modified feature Shane Pecore was the early leader in the 30-lap Jiffy Auto Services Modified feature, he had Gage Morin as a dancing partner on the inside lane as Marc Therrien was in third. Michel Chicoine brought the first caution on Lap 6. Morin had a great start when the green lights came back and took the lead over Pecore as Laurent Ladouceur was now in third. At the halfway point, Morin, Pecore, La- douceur, Tim O’Brien and Joel Doiron were the Top 5. Morin pulled away from the rest of the field with 10 laps to go. Ladouceur passed Pecore for second on Lap 24. Roger Levesque got out of Turn 2 and caution was out. Morin and Ladouceur got together and the veteran driver got a flat tire, and Morin led the final laps to win his second feature of the season. Tim O’Brien, Joel Doiron, Chris Raabe and Shane Pecore completed the Top 5. Immovex Lightning Sprints The 25-lap Immovex Lightning Sprints feature was the first to take track, Stéphane St-Laurent took the lead as Mathieu Bardier took second followed by Guillaume Nedeir- er. A red flag occurred for a flip on Lap 12. Officials decided to shorten the feature to 14 laps because of time constraints. Bardier led the final two laps to win over St-Laurent and Couture.
