Great Lakes Traditional Sprints
AIDAN SAILSBURY WINS AT LIMALAND MOTORSPORTS PARK
Elida, OH (Friday, July 28, 2023) - Great Lakes Traditional Sprints presented by Perfit Engine Pro (GLTS) had their second race of the season at Limaland Motorsports Park, and it was an exciting event with high-speed racing and a fantastic turnout in the stands. We want to express our gratitude to all the drivers, fans, sponsors, and staff members who joined us and showed their support.
Aidan Sailsbury (Colorado Springs,OH) started in 2nd place and eventually overtook Steve Irwin (Fenton, MI) who had been leading. Sailsbury maintained his position and emerged victorious in the Feature Race at Limaland Motor Sports Park.
Michael Fischesser (Cincinnati, OH) paid tribute to his late best friend, Justin Owen (4J), who tragically passed away in a racing accident earlier this season. Racing for the first time since he passed, Michael replicated his car and won the Hoosier Racing Tire Hard Charger award, impressively advancing nine positions from 14th to 5th. After talking to Michael he said " I knew Justin would've stayed on top, so I stayed on top", it was such a memorable night for Michael.
Meanwhile, Irwin achieved the fastest time of 14.607 seconds, earning the MPD Racing Fast Qualifier title. Jackson Slone (Noblesville, IN) secured the second-fastest time of 14.837 seconds, and Bryce Dues (Russia, OH) came in third with a time of 14.840 seconds.
Paul Dues (Minster, OH) took home the Howard Johnson by Wyndham Heat Race 1 after serving a four race suspension, while Carmen Perigo Jr. (Stoystown, PA) won the Perfit Engine Pro Heat Race 2.
