Luke Stewart Looking for Some Good Luck After Early Season Misfortunes at Mohawk Raceway and Brockville Speedway

Although Luke Stewart hasn’t posted the results that they had been hoping for when the 2013 season began just over a month ago, they have continued to work hard dialing in their brand new Hig-Fab chassis, and are confident that success will soon be found as we approach the first week of summer. This past weekend the team traveled to Mohawk International Raceway on Friday night, and on to Brockville Speedway on Saturday evening.

At Mohawk Raceway on Friday night, Stewart started his heat race from fourth position and ran a great race, finishing in third place. Luke lined up for the 25 lap main event from outside of row two in fourth position but the setup just wasn’t as acceptable to the dry slick conditions as they had hoped, and Stewart dropped outside the top ten. As the race ended, Luke crossed the finish line in 11th place.

On Saturday night, Luke and his team made their way back to Brockville Speedway, and they started the night off well with a win in their qualifying heat race. In the 30 lap feature, he started from outside of the first row, and settled into second place on the original start and held that position through the opening ten laps of the race. Contact from another car on lap 11 affected the handling immensely, and suddenly the strong run they had going was fading. Stewart crossed the finish line with a 14th place finish.

This coming weekend, Luke Stewart will return to Mohawk International Raceway on Friday night, and back to Brockville Ontario Speedway on Saturday. Stewart currently sits 7th in points at Mohawk Raceway, and at Brockville he is 12th overall.

Luke would like to thank all of his sponsors for their generosity as we enter the 2013 racing season. They include Fort Glass, M.A. Barr Service Station Maintenance, RW Electric, McCoy Bus Tours, Penny Blake of Remax Realty Kingston, Southeastern Telecommunication Services, Number One Speed Equipment, Stewart Speed Supplies and Finish Line Web Design. Also a very special thanks goes out to Wayne and Donna Smith for all of their support. We thank you all for your support during the 2013 season.
