Action Resumes At Shannonville Motorsport Park    After  a  month  long  hiatus,  the  motorcycles  were  back  on  track  at  Shannonville  Motorsport  Park  this  weekend.  The  weather  was  perfect  and  the  racing  close  despite  the  long  wait  to  resume  racing  action  on  Shannonville’s  2.47  km  Pro  Track  layout.  

   The  big  winner  this  weekend  was  Newcastle’s  Elie  Daccache.  Despite  a  scary  morning  practice  crash,  the  Kennedy  Motorsports  backed  rider  rebounded  nicely  to  win  both  of  his  Pro  classes  on  the  weekend.  

   In  Pro  Superbike  action,  Daccache  jumped  into  the  early  lead,  only  to  see  the  race  stopped  after  a  two-­‐rider  collision  in  Allen’s  corner,  which  brought  out  the  red  flag  and  a  halt  to  race  action.  On  the  10-­‐lap  re-­‐start,  Daccache  once  again  jumped  into  the  early  lead,  followed  closely  by  Jim  Proulx.  The  two  riders  battled  for  the  remaining  laps  with  Steve  “Doc”  Walker  in  a  lonely  third  place.  Behind  Walker  an  epic  battle  was  shaping  up  between  Anthony  Scavone  and  veteran  road  racer  Jeff  Williams  who  has  recently  come  out  of  retirement.    Daccache  managed  to  hold  off  Proulx  for  the  win,  who  had  to  settle  for  runner-­‐up  status  leaving  “Doc”  Walker  on  the  final  step  of  the  podium.  After  a  lengthy  battle,  Scavone  finished  in  fourth  with  Kingston  Ontario  rider,  Jeff  Williams  a  close  fifth.

Elie  Daccache  also  took  the  top  step  of  the  podium  in  Pro  6  Cycle&  Dunlop  Tire,  Pro  600  action.  Daccache  had  a  race  long  battle  with  Unique  Cycle  backed  Jeff  Williams  to  earn  the  win.  In  third  was  Brent  Strong  who  held  off  Tony  Lanni,  who  had  to  settle  for  fourth.  

   One  of  the  most  hotly  contested  races  of  the  weekend  took  place  in    Muskoka  Brewery,  Amateur    Superbike  racing.  “Take  Mike  For  Granite”  backed,  local  rider  Mike  Raniowski  took  the  early  lead,  coming  under  heavy  pressure  from  Chris  Brent.  Brent  chased  down  Raniowski,  taking  the  lead  with  three  laps  remaining,  briefly  losing  the  advantage  but  regained  the  lead  at  the  latter  stages  of  the  race,  holding  off  a  hard  charging  Raniowski  for  the  win.  The  last  step  of  the  podium  went  to  Michael  Hood  with  Kingston  Ontario’s  Steve  Cole  in  a  close  fourth,  just  ahead  of  Chris  Fehr.  

   In  Gravenhurst  Plastics,  Amateur  600  action,  Michael  Hood  took  the  early  lead  but  was  quickly  gunned  down  by  Raniowski  and  Chris  Brent.  The  three  riders  exchanged  the  lead  position  several  times  and  when  the  dust  settled  on  the  final  lap,  it  was  Chris  Brent  with  the  win,  Mike  Raniowski  in  second  and  Michael  Hood  taking  the  final  podium  position.  Local  racer  Steve  Cole  crossed  the  line  in  seventh  position.  

Ottawa’s  Steve  “Doc”  Walker  shattered  the  record  books  several  times  over  the  weekend  in  B.O.T.T.    Lightweight  race  action.  The  Pacific  Motorsports  sponsored  BMW  racer  again  re-­‐wrote  the  lap  record  book  in  his  final  race,  finishing  ahead  of  Hans  Van  Sleuwen  and  Leo  Foley.  Kingston’s  Brian  Madely  finished  in  seventh  aboard  his  vintage  Honda  Hawk.  

   Veteran  racer  Jim  Proulx  took  the  win  in  Open  Sprint  action  with  “Doc”  Walker  taking  second  just  ahead  of  Jeff  Williams.  

   Hans  Van  Sleuwen  finished  atop  the  podium  in  lightweight  Superbike  racing  with  second  going  to  Joshua  Thomas.  Third  place  went  to    Brian  Madeley.  

   Racing  resumes  at  Shannonville  Motorsport  Park  on  August  7th.  –  9th.  for  Round  3  of  the  R.A.C.E  SuperSeries.
