Joey Ladouceur Gets Fourth Place Finish in Mohawk Racing Parts Pro Stock Series Race at Mohawk Raceway; Cornwall Speedway Rained Out

With the popular Mohawk Racing Parts Pro Stock Series in action at Mohawk Raceway, Joey Ladouceur was looking forward to resuming the series in which they have won 8 times in his career.  After finishing fourth in the series opener for 2012 at Cornwall, Ladouceur was hoping for a little better finish this time around.  In addition to the event being a Mohawk Racing Parts Series event, it was also a combined series race with the Bailey Motor Company Pro Stock Series, which Ladouceur is also the defending champion.  Also on the weekend schedule was the customary Sunday night events at Cornwall Speedway.

Ladouceur started the 35 lap Pro Stock Series race from outside of row four after drawing eighth in the redraw for starting positions after the heats.  After an early caution, the next 27 laps went caution free, and Ladouceur was able to work his way into the top five.  The final caution of the race came on lap 31 and Ladouceur was able to move up one additional spot to fourth at the checkered flag.

“It wasn’t the run that we wanted to have, but we will take it and move on”, says Ladouceur.  “We have had a pair of top fives to start the Mohawk Series, and hopefully we can get the car working a little better before we head up to Quebec for the races next Month”.

The plan was to attend Cornwall Speedway on Sunday, as the Pro Stocks were joined on the schedule by the World of Outlaw Late Models.  A mid-afternoon rain shower and a forecast for more rain throughout the evening forced track officials to cancel the events for the night.

This coming weekend, Ladouceur will return to Cornwall for their regular program.  The following weekend will be busy as Ladouceur travels to Autodrome Granby and Autodrome Drummond for combined Mohawk Racing Parts Pro Stock Series/Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock Series events, and then on to Le RPM Speedway on Sunday for a standalone Mohawk Racing Parts Pro Stock Series race to complete the weekend.
