NASCAR IN SASKATOON!
Auto Clearing Motor Speedway is pleased to welcome the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series drivers and crews back to Saskatoon to compete in the Bayer Crop Science Velocity Prairie Thunder. This is the third year this 250 lap race has been held in Saskatoon. Two previous races and two winners, who will take home the title in 2011? #22 Scott Steckly, won the inaugural Velocity Prairie Thunder race in 2009 and he is Steckly is coming off a big win in Vernon B.C. this past weekend where he had qualified there for the pole position. In all six series races so far this year, he has finished in the top five in each of them - that’s why he is at the top of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series leader board. #17 DJ Kennington was last year’s winner here at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway and is second in the points chase. He has had one win this season and is looking to get his second win here. Local driver Dan Shirley #46 will make his debut into the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series. He has put many laps on at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway and definitely is the guy with home track advantage. He was out on the track a couple of weeks ago testing the new car and getting the setup just right for this event. #51 Nick Jewel, #48 Nathan Weenk and #36 Shannon Harding are no strangers to Auto Clearing Motor Speedway as they have competed in the former Western Elite Series which had regular stops at this track.
