As preparations continue forward for the 2017 season, Rick Spencer-Walt and Walt Motorsports are proud to welcome Bent by Kent as a proud supporter of the team this season.
Located at 100 Tiffin St in Barrie, Bent by Kent is the place to go for any custom exhaust, or repair work that you need done.
As previously announced, the team plans to start off their season at Sunset Speedway, however has yet to finalize everything once the APC Auto Parts United Late Models of Ontario Tour kicks off their season mid-May.
“Returning the Sunset will be a big challenge for our team,” Spencer-Walt said. “So far looks like we will run the first few nights, until APC starts up and see where that takes us. I think for the first time in a long time we are heading into a season with a ton of confidence, and know we have a good competitive team, thanks to Big Daddy Eldon Wallis.”
Last year, Spencer-Walt put together an impressive season at Peterborough Speedway, taking home the 2016 Limited Late Model Champion, as well as the Best Appearing Car Award at the banquet. Across the season this year, he was able to put up numbers which earned attention from everyone across the province. It’s worth noting in 13 races races this season (nine at Peterborough, three at Sunset, one at Sauble), Spencer-Walt posted five wins and 12 top-six finishes, including a victory in the Chase for the Colours event. He dominated the Autumn Colours Classic feature as well, leading 73 of 75 laps before contact and a flat tire resulted in an scheduled trip down pit road.
