After a frustrating night the previous week, getting caught up in a late race incident involving Lee Gill and a couple other championship contenders, Gill was looking to get back on track this week at the BOS as they enter the final month of the 2013 regular season. Gill had his consecutive top 10 streak snapped with a disappointing 18th place finish as a result of the last lap crash.
After a tough start to the night in the qualifying heat race, Gill lined up for the feature from the 21st starting spot, and begin to move up through the pack. By lap nine he was inside the top 15 and made his way inside the top 10 just prior to the halfway point of the 30 lap event. Over the final 15 laps, Gill continued to move forward, and crossed the finish line with a sixth place finish.
“The car wasn’t too bad, but after having some problems in the qualifier we had to start really deep in the field for the feature”, explains Gill after the race. “It wasn’t the finish we had wanted coming in here tonight, but under the circumstances, we will take it and move on to next week”.
Despite the frustrations from last week that left the car with heavy damage and an 18th place finish, Gill remains at the top of the standings, looking to capture his fifth career Brockville Speedway championship. His last title came in 2003, making it four consecutive BOS championships at the time.
This coming Saturday night, Lee Gill will return to Brockville Ontario Speedway looking to continue his strong season. Gill will be looking for his 3rd win of the year, and will be trying to add to his current 22 point lead in the battle for the 2013 Brockville Ontario Speedway Modified Track Championship.
