The 2012 racing season did
not start out the way Greg Belyea and the Excel Tower Racing team had hoped,
but the team has been picking up momentum, and have now won 2 of the last three
events at Brighton Speedway, and have moved to fourth in the battle for the
coveted Brighton Late Model championship.
Belyea was the 2011 winner, and is determined to get back into
contention over the final two months of the season.
Belyea was at Brighton
Speedway on Saturday night with his Late Model, and the Excel Tower Racing team
Sprint Car was also in attendance with driver Charlie Sandercock behind the
wheel. Belyea won his qualifying heat
after starting sixth, giving the team some confidence going into the 30 lap
feature. He rolled off the starting
grid from outside of the fourth row in position number eight, and quickly moved
forward. Belyea picked up his second
win of 2012, both coming over the last three races.
“The car has really been
working well for us the last few weeks”, says Belyea. “We have been working hard here on our program trying to be more
competitive then we were at the start of the year and that hard working is
starting to pay off”.
Charlie Sandercock also had
a good night in the Excel Tower Service Sprint car. He was back in the car at the Southern Ontario Sprints returned
to Brighton Speedway. Charlie won his
qualifying heat race, and redrew the sixth starting spot in the A-main. Although passing was at a premium,
Sandercock did manage to move up to fourth place, posting his best finish in a
very limited number of Sprint car races.
