Welland karter on a roll
Whether it’s the regular Tuesday night or one of the few Wednesday nights on the Bobcat of Hamilton kart racing schedule at Merrittville Speedway, one thing hasn’t changed.
Joey Priestley of Welland made his eight straight visit to victory lane after Junior 2 feature to remain undefeated.
Two drivers won their second features of the season on Wednesday night: Cohen Corbett, in Junior 1; and Tom Neale, in the Senior Fun class.
In other karting action at the Thorold track during the past week, Dylan Culp took home his third Senior Animal feature, Jaedon Lawson his fifth Junior Restricted checkered flag, while Jacob Mamo raced to his sixth victory of the season in the Novice 1/Novice 2 Division.
Kart racing continues Tuesday when pits open at 5:30 p.m. and action on the track gets underway at 7 p.m. Grandstand admission is free.
