Greg Belyea Scores Another Top Ten Finish at Brighton Speedway on Saturday Night; Advances to Third Place in Late Model Point Standings


With the 2012 racing now entering its final full month of the regular season, points are on everyone’s mind.  Belyea has some ground to make up in order to successfully defend his 2011 Late Model championship at Brighton Speedway but he has been running well lately, after a slow start to the season.

In his qualifying heat race, Belyea started from fifth place, and ended with a disappointing sixth place result.  The Excel Tower Service Late Model would get the same fifth place starting spot for the 30 lap main event, and once again, Belyea dropped to sixth before the finish.  While the finish wasn’t what he was looking for, it did launch him into third place in points, which puts him in the highest position that he has been in all season long.  He is just 255 points out of the lead in the chase for his second consecutive Brighton Speedway title.

“We struggled a bit tonight, and didn’t get the finish that we were looking for”, says Belyea.  “We will keep trying and hopefully we can get back to victory lane, and start chipping away at that points deficit over the next few weeks”.

Belyea will be back at Brighton Speedway again this Saturday night, and will be joined by the Excel Tower Service Sprint Car, as Charlie Sandercock will be back behind the wheel as the Southern Ontario Sprints return to Brighton.

The next major event on the schedule for Greg Belyea and the Excel Tower Service team will come at Brighton Speedway on September 8th as part of the Great Crate Race paying $5000 to win.  The next race for the Excel Sprint Car will come at Brighton on Saturday, August 4th.
