After a disappointing start to the 2014 season last week, Luke Stewart was determined to return this week with much better results. A mechanical failure sidelined Luke early on opening night and with the issues resolved during the week, they were back in business and ready to take on the BOS this past Saturday night.
Luke started on the front row of his qualifying heat race, and held the second position until midway through the race where he lost a little ground. He crossed the line with a fifth place result. In the 30 lap main event, Stewart maintained a top 10 position throughout the event and crossed the finish line with a 10th place result.
“We are not quite where we want to be with this car yet, but we are getting there”, says Stewart after the race. “These Hig-Fab cars are great to drive, and Jerry (Higbie) continues to be great to work with. “We keep working away at it and we will get this car dialed in”.
Stewart will return to Brockville Speedway this Saturday night looking to improve on last week’s top 10 result. After two events, Stewart is currently 12th in track points and only 16 markers back of the top 10.
Luke would like to thank all of his sponsors for their generosity and support during the 2014 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 and look forward to the 2014 season.
