WESTBROOK GOES BACK TO VICTORY LANE AT SOMS
MERLIN, Ont. (July 29, 2023) - Dylan Westbrook took his fourth Southern Ontario Sprints series win of the season on Saturday night at Southern Ontario Motor Speedway
Westbrook drew the pole position and led flag-to-flag for the win on the track that he said afterwards has quickly become one of his favourites. Ryan Turner, Shone Evans, Liam Martin, and Mitch Brown rounded out the top five. Westbrook earned $100 from Ackland Insurance for posting quick time in qualifications, while Evans took home the $150 Trailer Pros Canada Hard Charger Award.
The SOS would like to thank Henry Kroeker and his team at Southern Ontario Motor Speedway for hosting the series, and all the fans who attended on Saturday. Despite heavy rain in the days leading up to the event, the Chatham-Kent area track surface was smooth and wide on Saturday, and a large crowd filled the spacious grandstands.
Two special weeknight events are up next for the SOS series at Ohsweken Speedway on August 14 and 15. Visit www.ohswekenspeedway.com and www.southernontariosprints.ca for more information.
