by Tommy Goudge (September 6, 2012) - The 2012 edition of Ohsweken
Speedway's Friday Night Thunder series is set to conclude this Friday,
September 7 when O'Neil's Farm Equipment and Case IH present the Season
Championships for all divisions. The Corr/Pak Merchandising Sprint Cars,
Lighthouse Tattoos Thunder Stocks, HRW Automotive Mini Stocks, and
Pierced Parts Bombers will contest extra-distance feature races this
Friday, and the championships in each division are still up for grabs,
as many drivers still have legitimate chances to win.

CORR/PAK MERCHANDISING SPRINT CARS
The incredibly close championship chase in the Sprint Car division finds
2009 track champion Tom Huppunen at the top of the list, but the top 4
drivers are separated by just 7 points heading into the final event.
Chris Steele is currently 2nd in the standings, just 3 points behind
Huppunen, while Glenn Styres is 6 points behind the leader, and Travis
Cunningham is just 1 point behind Styres. Dain Naida rounds out the top
5, while Shane Ross is the current Rookie of the Year leader.

LIGHTHOUSE TATTOOS THUNDER STOCKS
Mike Thorne leads the Thunder Stock standings by just 6 points over Jack
Myers, as Thorne tries to successfully defend his 2011 championship. The
#5h team of Devin Habiuk and Pete Reid is currently 3rd, followed by
Wyatt Van Wart, and Lee Winger. The Rookie of the Year award is still up
for grabs as well, with Jake Brown currently holding a 10 point lead
over Ryan Turner in that category.

HRW AUTOMOTIVE MINI STOCKS
Karl Sault enjoys the largest margin of any of the Ohsweken points
leaders, as he has a 20 point lead over Mike Evers heading into Friday's
finale. Jason Lungaro, Jeremy Hughes, and the #02 team of Mike Taylor
and Mark Czuba rounds out the current top 5, while Dale Gyokery leads
the Rookie of the Year standings.

PIERCED PARTS BOMBERS
The closest title fight is found in the Bomber division, where Davey
