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.
