With the miserable weather that has visited the area lately, Laird International Raceway has scheduled a pair of races this week to make up for Thursday's rain out.
Action will run on Monday and Thursday with the track celebrating Tuesday's Canada Day holiday on Monday night with a fireworks display following the show. The late models will also run two 30-lap feature races. On Thursday, the factory stocks will run a 30-lap feature.
After only four nights of racing, a serious battle has begun at the top of the factory stock division point standings.
Jason Praysner sits at the top of the division with 150 points while Dave Slingsby is riding his bumper with 145 points. Both drivers narrowly missed out on the points title last season, which was won by Parker Brockelbank. Brockelbank hasn't been racing since the season's opening week.
Rob Hiiemaa has built a lead in the late models with 125 points. George Wilson and Dennis Varcoe sit second with 76 points apiece. Barry Glenn, with 154 points, leads Norm Miller by 26 points in the pure stock class while Bill Butler has a 15-point lead over Mike McCarthy in the stock fours.
Racing begins at 7 p.m. both nights with qualifying in the late model and factory stock divisions beginning at 6:15 p.m.
