(London, Ontario – June 25 2012) - The Southern Ontario Sprints rolled
into Ohsweken Speedway Friday night to join the weekly racers from
Ohsweken Speedway's sprint car division and the top drivers from the USA
Patriot Tour for the first of four co-sanctioned Northern Summer
Nationals events.

The fans looking for large car counts and fast action were not
disappointed with 47 teams filling the pits on a sunny Friday evening.

Among the drivers competing in the event was Two-time NHRA funny car
champion Cruz Pedregon who tried his hand at driving a sprint car. Cruz
hit the back stretch wall in the 'B' Main and did not finish however he
was added to the 'A' Main as the promoter’s option and ended the night 21st.

The night got off to a good start for track owner and former SOS
champion Glenn Styres, winning his heat race and transferring directly
to the 'A' Main.

Current SOS points leader Lee Ladouceur and Warren Mahoney wouldn't be
as lucky in their heat races. However, they each easily won their
respective 'B' Mains to take them to the main event.

The 25 lap feature was won by #35 Jared Zimbardi from New York state, a
PST regular. “General” Lee Ladouceur was the top finishing Southern
Ontario Sprints regular in 6th place, earning him a $100 bonus sponsored
by Glenn Styres and Ohsweken Speedway for being the highest finishing
SOS driver.

NOTES

- Point standings have been corrected to reflect an oversight in
registration at Granby.

- The fastest tour in Ontario next returns to Brighton Speedway July
14th for the “SOS Summer Showdown”. $2,500 will be waiting in victory
lane as part of the largest purse ever presented by the SOS. The runner
up will take home $1,000 and 3rd place will pay $600. The feature will
start 25 drivers to battle it out for 25 laps in the biggest showdown of
the summer at Brighton Speedway.
