The 2014 season entered its final month of the regular season this past weekend and Tristan Draper and his Draper Racing team were looking to build on their top 10 finish from the previous week and put together some good finishes over the final few weeks.
Draper began the night with a fourth place finish in his qualifier, and returned to the pit area to make some adjustments on his car before the 25 lap main event. The track conditions were extremely rough due to a late afternoon storm, but Draper persevered, battling to his second consecutive top 10 finish at Brockville. He crossed the line in eighth place, launching him into the top 10 in track points at the BOS with four events remaining.
“We did all we could tonight”, says Draper. The track was real fast tonight with all that rain we had earlier. We will take this top 10 finish and get ready to head to Cornwall tomorrow”.
Track conditions at Cornwall were just as bad, as it was very fast and very rough. He started last in his qualifier and finished in fifth place. Tristan also started at the back of his heat race, and avoided heavy damage on a lap one incident. He went on to finish 11th at Cornwall.
This coming weekend Tristan will be back at Brockville for the final round of the Ogilvie’s Triple Crown Sportsman Series event. It will be a 40 lap event with a timed hot lap session determining the field of the qualifying heat race.
