Joel Doiron to Wrap up 2012 Regular Season at Cornwall Motor Speedway With 125 Lap Season Finale; Returns to Mohawk Raceway on Thursday Night

It is almost implausible that the 2012 racing season has reached its final weekend of the regular season.  Joel Doiron and his team have had a great season so far, but would like nothing more to find victory lane before the final checkered flag flies to signify the end of the year.  Doiron has had a strong year, and still mathematically remains in contention for the coveted Cornwall Speedway championship, but faces and uphill battle with 30 points to make up on the final night.

Regardless of his points position, Doiron has had a good year with top five finishes in half the races he entered at Cornwall this season, and three more top ten finishes.  He remained in contention all season long for the championship and while the he hasn’t got a win yet this season, he will continue to seek that over the final weekend with races at Mohawk Raceway on Thursday night for a 50 lap Frenchie’s “Chevy Runs Deep” Series race, and again at Cornwall Speedway for the 125 lap Canadian Nationals/Mr. DIRTcar 358 Modified Series event.

“We had a rough night there a couple weeks ago and that really hurt our chances in points.  We are not going to give up, we are going to go out and try to win the race, and gain the most points we can”, says Doiron.  “Everything else is out of our control”.

This past week at Cornwall started out well for Doiron, picking up the win in his qualifying heat race.  He started sixth in the 30 lap feature and slid back to seventh through the first half of the race.  Over the final ten laps, he was able to make up some ground and finished with a solid fourth place result..

This coming weekend, Doiron will be at Mohawk International Raceway in Hogansburg, New York for their Frenchie’s “Chevy Runs Deep” 358 Modified 50 lap Series race.  Sunday night, he will be at Cornwall Speedway for the final time this season as they host a 125 lap Canadian Nationals/Mr. DIRTcar 358 Modified Series race.

“Its going to be a big weekend of racing, and we are looking forward to getting back to Mohawk Raceway once again”, says Doiron.  “We will wrap up the season at Cornwall on Sunday, and then determine a schedule for the remaining races in 2012”.
