Fowl Mood Racing Driver Phil Potts Scores Third Consecutive Top Five Finish at Brighton; Archer Learning Quickly in Canadian Modified Division

After earning a pair of fourth place finishes to start the 2013 season at Brighton Speedway, Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing Late Model team were looking to improve on that this past week. Stu Archer was also back behind the wheel of his Canadian Modified, looking to gain more experience and build on their program with each race.

Phil Potts was looking for another solid finish at Brighton Speedway this past weekend in the Late Model. With a pair of top five finishes to start the year, they were confident that a victory was well within reach. They struggled early though in the qualifying heat race, taking a fifth place finish back to the pit area. After making some adjustments on the car, they were ready for the feature. Potts started the ninth position, and gradually worked his way to the front, and by the time the race ended, he has scored his third consecutive fourth place finish to start the 2013 season. After three events, he is tied for second in the point standings.

“We have been consistent here at Brighton, that’s for sure”, says Potts looking back on his repetitive finishes to start the year. “The car has been good, we just need to a little more and we will be up there challenging for the win”.

In the Fowl Mood Racing Canadian Modified, Stu Archer continues to get comfortable in his role as car owner of the Fowl Mood Racing team as well as the driver of the Canadian Mod. He finished fifth in his qualifying heat race, and started 18th in the feature. At the checkered flag, Archer finished in 10th place, earning his second top ten finish in three events so far this season.

This coming week, Fowl Mood Racing will be in action at Can Am Motorsports Park in Lafargeville, New York on Wednesday night for the first race in the Go Nuclear Excel Tower North Division. On Saturday night, both the Fowl Mood Racing Late Model and Canadian Modified will return to Brighton Speedway.
