Fowl Mood Racing Returns to Victory Lane at Chapman’s Can Am Motorsports Park; Sixth Place Finish at Brighton Speedway

The past couple weeks have been tough in the Fowl Mood Racing camp, losing a couple of motors, and not getting the results that they were looking for. They returned to action this past week looking for much better results with events at Can Am Motorsports Park and Brighton Speedway on their schedule.

On Friday night at Can Am, Potts started the night with a fifth place finish in the qualifying heat race. After making some changes to the car, he headed back onto the track later in the night for their 20 lap main event, starting from the second row. Potts battled for second place for most of the race, but a lap 18 caution regrouped the field and put him on the rear bumper of the race leader. Potts ducked underneath the leader on the final lap to secure the win, and pulls back into a tie for the point lead in the battle for the Can Am Late Model championship.

“I really have to thank Stu and April (Archer) for providing me with this great car to drive each week”, says Potts. “I also want to thank our sponsors and all of our Fowl Mood Racing fans for sticking by us each week through the good times and bad”.

Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team returned to their home track at Brighton Speedway on Saturday night. It was a rather uneventful night, finishing 5th in their qualifier and a sixth place finish in the main event.

This coming weekend Potts will have the night off at Can Am Motorsports Park on Friday but they will be back at Brighton Speedway on Saturday night. The next race on the Go Nuclear Late Model schedule comes on Saturday, September 6th at Brighton Speedway for the Great Crate Race.

Fowl Mood Racing Suffers Engine Problems at Can Am and Brighton

What started out to be a strong season for Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team quickly turned for the worse as engine failures on both Friday night at Can Am and Saturday night at Brighton has certainly hindered the spirits of the Fowl Mood team. They have been working hard a securing another engine and plan to be back this weekend at both tracks.

The weekend started at Can Am Motorsports Park in Lafargeville, New York. In the qualifying heat race, Phil Potts drove the Fowl Mood Racing Late Model to the front of the field after starting fourth on the grid and he went on to win. In the feature, Potts started on the outside of the front row and was chasing down the race leader at one point when the engine expired and they were done for the night.

The following day, the Fowl Mood team was back on the track at Brighton Speedway looking for better results. They finished fifth in the qualifying heat race, and managed a third place result in the main event, but a blown head gasket resulted in another blown motor. A new engine will go in the car to finish the year out at Brighton Speedway, and the team has already secured a motor for the second car and are hoping to be ready for Friday night.

The next Go Nuclear Late Model Series race is at Can Am this Friday night, and as mentioned, the team is hoping to be ready in time. On Saturday night, they will be back at Brighton Speedway.

“I really have to thank Stu & April (Archer) for allowing me to drive these cars and the crew that work so hard each week in the shop and at the track. I also would like to thank our sponsors and all the race fans that come out and watch us race”.

Fowl Mood Racing Battles to a Second Place Finish on Saturday Night at Brighton Speedway; Canada Day Championship Weekend Coming Up

This past weekend was a relatively quiet weekend for Phil Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team, as their Friday night track at Can Am had a rare night off. The team was back in action on Saturday night at their home track in Brighton looking to get back to victory lane and continue their early season success.

Potts opened the night with a fifth place finish in the qualifying heat race, maintaining his starting position. In the 30 lap main event, Potts rolled off the starting grid from the ninth position and patiently moved forward from the drop of the green flag. With five laps on the board, the Fowl Mood Racing Late Model was already inside the top five, and just a few laps later they were in third place. Potts settled in third for much of the last half of the race before making his way to second with just a couple laps remaining. He crossed the finish line in second place.

“We got off to a bit of a slow start, with the wrong gear in the car for the heat race”, says Potts. “The guys did a great job getting the car ready for the feature and the car was real good. I have to thank the Stu (Archer) and the entire team for their hard work during the week and here at the track”.

This coming weekend, Potts and the Fowl Mood Racing team will have another week off at Can Am as the Late Models are not on the schedule. They are entrenched in a great battle for the championship, and are currently tied for the top spot. Action will resume at Can Am next Friday night. On Saturday night, the team will be back at Brighton Speedway for the annual Canada Day Championships.
