Joey Ladouceur Dominates Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Series Race at Mohawk International Raceway; Super DIRT Week Coming Up Next


In one of the most dominating performances of the 2012 racing season, Joey Ladouceur took his car to victory lane at Mohawk International Raceway on Saturday afternoon in the Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Series.  It was a long weekend, that was paused on Friday after time trials because of rain.  It resumed on Saturday afternoon for the conclusion of the event.

Ladouceur started the 50 lap event from seventh place, and quickly moved forward.  By lap nine he had moved into second and just three laps later he had the top spot and never looked back taking the win by nearly a half track over the second place car.  The win gives Ladouceur a 20 point lead in the Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Standings as he continues his quest for his second straight overall championship.

“We couldn’t be happier with this win”, says Ladouceur.  “It really wasn’t easy.  Hopefully we can build on this and have a strong showing at Super DIRT Week in a couple weeks”.

Ladouceur will be seeking his first ever Super DIRT Week Pro Stock win on Sunday, October 7th at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse, New York.  The team will be hard at work over the next couple week preparing the car for the coveted BACC-OFF Pro Stock Championship race. 

"We have our longtime sponsors that are stepping up to the plate again for us in our Syracuse program and we will try to win it this year," says Ladouceur.

Once Super DIRT Week is over, there will be just one more event remaining in the 2012 season as the Mr. DIRTcar Series finale takes place at Brockville Ontario Speedway on Friday, October 12th as part of the 1000 Islands RV DIRTcar Northeast Fall Nationals.

Joey Ladouceur Claims Fourth Consecutive Cornwall Speedway Pro Stock Championship and 9th Career Mohawk Racing Parts Pro Stock Series Title


The 2012 season has been filled with some outstanding highlights for Joey Ladouceur and his Pro Stock team.  He has scored eight feature wins to date, including his 100th career DIRTcar Pro Stock feature win just two weeks earlier, and has already claimed his second straight Bailey Motor Company Pro Stock championship.  This past weekend, Ladouceur entered Cornwall Speedway for the final time in 2012 with his fourth consecutive track championship all but wrapped up, and also had a convincing lead in the Mohawk Racing Parts Pro Stock Series with their final 40 lap feature on the schedule to end the regular season.

In the 40 lap race at Cornwall on Sunday night, Ladouceur was making his way through the field patiently in the first half of the race, and had climbed to as high as third place on lap 24 before getting blatantly taken out by a lapped car.  Joey restarted the race from the rear of the field, while the culprit was parked for the night.  When the race restarted with 16 lap remaining, Ladouceur charged through the field, and would climb back to fourth place at the checkered flag.

“We had a great season here, and our proud of our accomplishments”, says Ladouceur after the race.  “I really have to thank the team, my family, and all of our fans and sponsors for their support.  It seems like we have had to deal with some issues on the track the past few weeks from other drivers, but I guess that is part of racing when you are having success”.

This coming weekend, Joey will be at Autodrome Granby on Saturday, September 8th as the Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Series resumes.  He currently sits fourth in the series point standings, but only 34 points out of the top spot as he looks to claim his second consecutive and third overall Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Series championship.  Following the race in Granby, Ladouceur will move on to Mohawk Raceway the following week, then on to the New York Sate Fairgrounds in Syracuse for Super DIRT Week on October 7th and will conclude the 2012 season with the Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Championship race at Brockville Speedway on October 12th
