"The Nasty Track" Of The North Proves Nice For Tim Fuller; Wins Friday At Can-Am Speedway

LAFARGEVILLE, NY - Tim Fuller was the victor in the small block 358 modified class, Friday night at Can-Am Speedway in Lafargeville, New York, after back-to-back rainouts had postponed the season points opener for two weeks. The night was sponsored by VP Racing Fuels, Number One Speed Shop and Dirt Empire Magazine.

Twenty-eight cars took the green flag in the Whitesboro Plow Shop DIRTcar 358 Modified feature, the highlight of the night’s racing event. The night belonged to Tim Fuller in the number 19, as he had the hot foot at the drop of the green flag and each of the caution restarts, consistently jumping out ahead of the pack. Billy Dunn (49) was a hard charger, climbing up from a tenth position start to challenge Fuller for the lead throughout the second half of the race. Fuller managed to fend him off with the help of lapped traffic, to take his first victory of the season at the Nasty Track of the North.

“I was happy to get one tonight,� Fuller said, from the Bob Johnson Auto Group Victory Lane. “A lot of lapped traffic out there, it took a little to get around it. The top of the track was pretty good. A little rough in turns three and four, but pretty good. I think there will be a lot of back and forth with him (second place finisher Billy Dunn) as the season goes on.�

Taylor Caprara (21) led for much of the Bob Johnson Auto Group DIRTcar Sportsman feature, but Chris Bonofski (16B) never relented in his pursuit for the lead. While Caprara ran the high groove around the track, Bonofski preferred the low side.

“The car stuck pretty good where I wanted it to,� Chris Bonofski said from victory lane. “The track was pretty good. I wasn’t sure where I was going to race tonight, I guess I’m glad we came here.�

Bonofski was able to get by Caprara for the lead and the victory, while Caprara gave up second place to David Rogers (1R), and had to settle for third, as they became entangled in lapped traffic late in the race.

Sid Harmer Jr. (14R) took advantage of a flat tire by Tyler Bushey (x15), who had a strong lead early in the FABCO DIRTcar Prostock feature, to drive to victory in the twenty-lap race. Bushey was able to climb back to a respectable fifth place finish, but it was certainly a disappointment after an exceptional start.

“It took us through the hot laps to figure out what was going on with the car,� Sid Harmer Jr. said, after the race regarding his win. “But we got it figured out. The track was great, had a lot of bite on the bottom. It took a little bit to get some heat in the tires, but once we got it, we ran good.�

Michael Delormier (10) was the victor in the Donath MotorWorx DIRTcar Sportsman B Main, while Mike Greenfield (17) managed to sneak past Tony Frezzo (22) and AJ St. Mary (111J) to gain victory in the Marsha Gibbons TLC Realty Thunderstock division feature. Blayden Arquette (18) closed the night of racing with a victory in the Donath Motor Worx Limited Sportsman feature.

Racing will return to Can-Am Speedway on May 21, with a full night of family-friendly racing action. For more information visit: racecanam.com.
