On Friday September 2nd at Legion Speedway it was a full card of racing featuring 5 divisions to start off the holiday weekend. Donald Ottati stayed hot in the Non Wing Sprint Cars. Ottati held off many challenges Mark Cole during the race mainly on the few restarts towards the end. Cole had used up his tires just a bit too much in order to pass Ottati. Cole would end up second Nick Comeau third Matt Collins and Adam Trott your top five. In the modifieds it was John Stowell running a good race to take home his first win at Legion Speedway followed by Bryan Bigue and Matt Lashua. It was good to see some different mods here in the pit area at Legion. In the Pro 4 's it was Jason Darling taking down the win followed by Fabian Smith and David Bill. The Outlaw midgets were back and it was Mark Sokol from Doylesville, PA taking down the win followed by Jeff Horn and Mike Netishen. Sokol would win in the 600 non wing micros in the followed by Mark Wiggett and Jack Kopenan . It was a seven hour ride for Sokol , but hey he got two wins so maybe it was a happy ride back home. Congratulations to all the winners, you still have time to win another race or two before we stop racing in 2022.
