It had been a tough couple weeks for Phil Pott’s and the
Fowl Mood Racing team, with disappointing back to back DNFs at Brighton
Speedway. They were hoping to rebound
this week at their hometown track, and climb back into contention as the battle
for 2012 championship heats up.
The night started out well, with a win in their qualifying
heat after starting from the sixth starting position. The will gave the team optimism that their recent misfortunes
would be behind them, and a good night was in store the Fowl Mood Racing
team. Their disappointing finishes from
the past two weeks put them on the front row to start the 30 lap main event,
and after a hard fought battle, the team crossed the finish line in first
place, and scored their third victory of the 2012 season.
“It was a tough couple weeks, but it sure is nice to get
back to victory lane”, says Potts after the race. “I really have to thank Stu and April (Archer), and the entire
Fowl Mood Racing team for all their hard work here at the track and in the shop
too. This Rocket chassis has been
really good for us this year, and the results have backed that up. I also want to thank our sponsors and all of
our fans that support us each week”.
Potts is currently second place in points at Brighton
Speedway and continues to chip away at the deficit. He is now just 120 points out of the lead in the battle for the
coveted championship. He will be back
at Brighton again this Saturday night, and also plans to run Humberstone
Speedway in Port Colborne, Ontario on Sunday for their Late Model invitational
race.
Fowl Mood Racing would not be possible without the support
of our sponsors. We would like to thank
Hutchinson Fuels, Indewey Excavating, Vanderlaan Building Supplies, Bill’s
Johns, Gord’s Water Service and Brighton Recycling Inc. for all their support,
and we look forward to a very exciting 2012 season.
