Kyle Steckly picked up the checkered flag ahead of Rick Burbridge, Kevin Albers, Chris Howse, and Coltin Everingham. David Gallinger finished sixth, while Brett Rodwell did not finish, and Jason Wood failed to take the green flag.

Notably, after working through the night to fix damage sustained at Delaware Speedway on Friday night, J.R. Fitzpatrick saw his night end in practice as a result of motor issues.

From Kyle Steckly on his first win:

We had a great day at the track yesterday! We started out strong and had a good starting position for the first feature starting in second. I got the lead on the start and lead every lap on to win the feature. The second race wasn’t as easy as I had to start at the back of the field. But we made our way up to the front and got the lead bear the end of the race! It was a great night and I learned a ton again about passing and the cars. Thanks to all of you for your support. We will be testing and getting the car even better and be racing on august 7th.

Canadian Vintage Modifieds

The first feature would see Mike Westwood take the early lead ahead of John Karley, Quinton Murdoch, Joe Arsenault, Mike Podd, Jerrid Morphy, TJ Marshall, Rick WIlligar, and Mike Klotz.

Mini Stocks

Sharpe got a good restart ahead of Hils, with Istead up to third. Quinton would make his way back up after the spin, looking to get by Istead for third. Unfortunately, contact would see Istead go around for the yellow flag with a couple laps to go.

Longford would take over the top spot on Lap 5, with Mitchell into sixth. Stewart’s night got worse, as he headed pit side a lap later.

At the front of the field, Morris was able to track down Longford for the top spot, getting alongside him on Lap 9. He would then complete the pass a lap later as Tonelli continued to run third ahead of Givens, Mercer, Thorne, Mitchell, Lucas, Hooper, and Dale Lucas. Mitchell would then challenge Thorne for sixth on Lap 17 and was able to complete the pass.

Bourgeois grabbed the top spot on the opening lap ahead of Dale Lucas, with Stewart battling Kyle Lucas for third. Givens would take them three-wide, getting the spot on Lap 3, bringing Morris and Hooper through with him. It’d then get a little crazy, with Alex Stewart, Kyle Lucas, Thorne, and Mitchell going four-wide for sixth.

Bourgeois would continue to lead, but now ahead of Givens as he moved into second ahead of Morris and Dale Lucas. Things would get interesting at the front of the field on Lap 6, with a three-wide battle for the lead. Morris would emerge out front ahead of Givens, Bourgeois, Dale Lucas, Kyle Lucas, Hooper, Mitchell, and Tonelli. Langford would then challenge Tonelli for eighth on Lap 11, with contact occurring as Langford stopped in turn three a lap later.

The restart would see Dale Lucas go around in turns one and two following contact, with somehow everybody avoiding him and he missing the outside wall. There’d be no caution as Givens led ahead of Morris, Kyle Lucas, Bourgeois, Mitchell, and Thorne. Lamont continued to move forward, getting by Thorne for sixth on Lap 15. Tonelli would try to follow him through, instead making contact with Thorne, resulting in Thorne hitting the outside turn three wall.

The restart would see some contact, resulting in both Hooper and Bourgeois going around in turns one and two. Jordan Morris, meanwhile, did a really good job, and was able to snag the lead, pacing the field the rest of the way for the daily double. Phil Givens finished second, followed by Kyle Lucas, Matt Lamont, and Michael Neumeister.

Chase Mitchell placed sixth, followed by Matt Langford, Eric Stewart, Scott Tonelli, and Bobby Mercer. Alex Stewart finished 11th, followed by Nicole Stewart, and Jimmy Hooper. Reece Bourgeois, Mark Thorne, and Dale Lucas failed to finish, while Rick VanKleef did not take the green flag.

Millgrove, Ontario – With news that the province will move into Stage 2 as of June 30, Flamboro Speedway will be running the rest of the 2021 schedule as originally released, beginning with July 3.

The Millgrove, Ontario oval originally released their schedule for the fans back in the spring. Those who have been attending the speedway for years will be happy to hear that the fan favourites remain on the schedule, like Meet The Drivers Night, and the Flamboro Memorial & Fan Appreciation Corn Roast Night.

With the province moving into stage two, the speedway will be allowed to host up to 25% capacity, or 1500 fans per night. Fans will be required to fill out the COVID-19 screening form, preferably online, before attending any event. Payment will be accepted at the gate, with full details to be announced closer to next weekend.

For the drivers, it will be a regular points fund payout at season’s end. Beginning with July 3, it will be $50 for driver and car, and $40 per crew member.

The track’s core divisions are back on the calendar for 2021 – Pro Late Models, Super Stocks, Mini Stocks, Pure Stocks, Canadian Vintage Modifieds, and the Pro 4 Modifieds, each ready to offer their own dish of entertainment. With over 100 different competitors across the divisions last year, fans were thrilled by door-to-door side-by-racing racing on a weekly basis, producing several different feature winners.

Of note, the ever-popular Grisdale Triple Crown will once again be a feature statement on the schedule. The first of those already took place on June 19, with the additional 100-lap features scheduled for August 7 and October 3, with points given out by finishing position. The driver who has the most at the end of the final event will be crowned the 2021 Champion. The battle is expected to go right down to the wire, just like 2019 with Shae Gemmell edging out J.R. Fitzpatrick for the crown.

Although the core divisions always put on a show, the track is also proud to host several different touring divisions throughout 2020.

The APC Auto Parts United Late Models of Ontario Tour will make a pair of stops, alongside the APC Super Stock Series and the QuikWick T.Q. Can-Am Midgets.

Other touring classes that will make an appearance in 2021 include the Queenston Chevrolet Buick GMC OSCAAR Modifieds, Knightworks Design OSCAAR Hot Rods, Ontario Pro Challenge Series, Ontario Modified Racing Series, Ontario Sportsman Series, and the Outlaw Midgets.

As has become tradition, Flamboro Speedway will once again have a primary event during the year-end short track playoffs, with Frostoberfest, which is scheduled for October 2 and 3. The year-end event will have 10 features across 10 different classes, so it is bound to be packed with action from the drop of the initial green flag.

Saturday, October 2 will be sponsored by London Recreational Racing, with the OSCAAR Modifieds, OSCAAR Hot Rods, Mini Stocks, Ontario Legends Series and Ontario Pro Sprints in action.

On top of Sunday October 3 featuring the final round of the Grisdale Triple Crown, the Ontario Super Late Models will host their Don Biederman Memorial. The race card will also feature the Super Stocks, Outlaw Midgets, and Pure Stocks in action.

The 2021 schedule will then close out with the Halloween Enduro 250 on Saturday, October 16.

The full schedule once released, along with any other information you may inquire about, can be found on the track’s website at http://www.flamborospeedway.ca
