Joel Doiron Posts Strong Third Place Finish at Mohawk International Raceway; Cornwall Speedway Rained Out for First Time in 2014

The 2014 season has been one of frustration for Joel Doiron during the past couple months, but as the calendar hits July, things seem to be picking up for Doiron. During last weekend’s triple header at Cornwall, Dorion led several laps, and finished fifth in the first race, and had back to back top ten results in the other two main events that day. This past weekend, Doiron was looking for more of the same as he returned to Mohawk International Raceway on Friday night and Cornwall Speedway once again on Sunday evening.

Friday night started off with the usual qualifying heat races, and Doiron picked up the win in the 8 lap event. In the 25 lap main event, Doiron started up front and led the opening 11 laps of the race. He lost a little ground maneuvering around the heavy lapped traffic, falling to third place and that is where he would finish.

“The car was pretty good tonight. We went all 25 laps without a caution, and the lapped traffic was pretty fierce”, says Doiron. “We had a pretty good week last week, and we have carried that into this weekend so far, hopefully we can keep the bad luck away from us for the rest of the year”.

Sunday night was supposed to be another event at Cornwall Speedway, but Mother Nature had other plans and the events were cancelled. Doiron will return to both Mohawk Raceway and Cornwall Speedway this coming weekend.
