Fowl Mood Racing Gets 7th Place on Opening Night at Can Am; Successful Practice at Brighton Has Team Ready for Hometown Opener This Weekend


After two weekends of rain washing out any on track activity for Fowl Mood Racing, they were finally able to get on track this weekend. Can Am hosted their opening night on Friday night, while their home town Brighton Speedway hosted a practice day on Saturday and Sunday.

Opening night didn’t go as smooth as Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood team had hoped at Can Am. They struggled in their qualifying heat race, and fought their way to a seventh place finish in the 20 lap main event.

The following day, Potts and the Late Model team as well as team owner Stu Archer and his Canadian Modified team hit the track at Brighton Speedway for the first time in 2013. Potts looked strong in the Late Model, while Archer is just getting acclimated with his new ride. Archer also returned to Brighton on Sunday for day two of practice.

This coming weekend, The Fowl Mood Racing Late Model team plans to return to Can Am Motorsports Park on Friday night, and will be at Brighton Speedway on Saturday for their season opener with both the Late Model and the Canadian Modified. They will compete weekly at Brighton with both cars, while Phil Potts plans to follow the Go Nuclear Late Model Series and select events with the World of Outlaw Late Models.

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 throughout the 2012 season, and we look forward to another great season in 2013.

Fowl Mood Racing Set For Exciting 2013 Racing Campaign With Late Model and New Canadian Modified; First Race of the Season Cancelled at Can Am

It has certainly been a busy off-season for Fowl Mood Racing as they have expanded their team to include a Canadian Modified in addition to the Crate Late Model that they have run over the past few seasons. Phil Potts will continue as the Late Model driver, while team owner Stu Archer will get back behind the wheel in the Brighton Speedway Canadian Modified.

The Fowl Mood Racing team had hoped to get on the track last weekend at Can Am for some practice with the Late Model, but rain washed out both days of scheduled practice time. The season opener at Can Am was scheduled for this past weekend, and once again rain forced the track to cancel their program. They will try once again this Friday night, before getting on the track at their hometown Brighton Speedway for a test and tune session on April 27th and 28th where they will have both cars on hand as they make their final preparations before they start the season the following Saturday night.

“It has been a tough start here with the weather not co-operating, but hopefully that will change soon, and we can get the season underway”, says Phil Potts. “We were a little spoiled by the great weather we had last year at this time”.

Potts and the Fowl Mood Crate Late Model team will race weekly at Brighton, as well as select shows at Can Am Motorsports Park. They also plan to follow the entire Go Nuclear Late Model Challenge Series. Archer will race his Canadian Modified weekly at Brighton Speedway.
