Like the previous Ogilvie’s Auto Triple Crown Series, heat race lineups were determined by a timed hot lap session to start the night. Gill was the second fastest car in his group, and maintained that second place finish throughout his qualifying heat race, securing the sixth starting spot for the 50 lap main event. The first yellow of the race came on lap five, and Gill had already climbed to the fourth position. Gill maintained a top five position through the first half of the race, and was running in fourth place when the final caution of the race occurred on lap 43. On the restart, Gill quickly moved to third place, and battled his way to second over the final lap.
“The car was pretty good early on, but started to really come to life late in the race”, says Gill after the 50 lap main event. “We were hoping to get back to victory lane, but we will take this second place finish”.
Lee Gill will return to Brockville Speedway this coming Saturday night. He will enter the evening with a 24 point advantage in the chase for the coveted Brockville Speedway title.
