SOS: Southern Ontario Sprints Set to Double Up This Weekend


The Southern Ontario Sprints championship will be declared on Friday night, September 8th when the thundering winged warriors invade the Styres Family owned Ohsweken Speedway to close out the 2006 series tour.

With the concept and format established in 2005 to reward the drivers who support the Southern Ontario Sprints club throughout the season, the championship event is closed to anyone who has not run on at least three of the four tracks the series visits during the season. We have thirty-five drivers who have met the criteria during 2006 exclaims SOS President Bill Oldroyd. And there are six additional drivers who can make the list if they participate when the series moves into Brighton Speedway this weekend for a two day Classic . They include Fred Cade; Larry Atkinson; Mark Schulz; Tom Huppunen; Jamie Collard; and Andrew Reaume. They all have competed at two of the four venues.
