Tristan Draper Scores Top Ten Finish at Brockville Speedway on Saturday Night; Continuing to Learn Quickly in Competitive Sportsman Division

When the 2014 racing season got underway several weeks ago, Tristan Draper and the Draper Racing team were looking forward to starting their first full campaign in the Sportsman division. They were well aware that there would be a steep learning curve as he battled competition that is much older and more experienced. Draper has help his own over the first few weeks, and posted a top ten finish this past weekend at Brockville.

On Saturday night, Tristan and his team made the trip to Brockville Speedway. They started the 25 lap Sportsman main event from the 16th position. At the drop of the green, Draper realized he had a pretty good car, and steadily moved forward throughout the race. By lap 20, Tristan had worked his way into the top ten and crossed the finish line with a solid tenth place finish.

“We are getting there. The competition is real tough, but we are gaining on it”, says the 17 year old racer after his second top ten of the season. “We work hard to get better each week, and we are heading in the right direction”.

Draper will return to Brockville Speedway once again this Saturday night looking for even more results. After five events in 2014, Draper currently sits 11th in track points, and just 11 points back of the top 10.
