Joel Doiron’s Top Five Finish Puts Him at the Top of the Standings at Cornwall Motor Speedway With One Month Remaining in 2012 Season

After posting his eighth straight top ten finish at Cornwall Motor Speedway on Sunday night, Joel Doiron and his Alexandria, Ontario based 358 Modified team have moved to the top of the standings as they battle for the coveted championship with just one more month remaining in the 2012 season. Doiron and one other competitor are tied for first place overall. Although he is still looking for that first win of the year, Doiron has been very consistent, and that is the key to the team’s success as the attempt to win the Cornwall title for the first time since the 2002 season.

Doiron started the night off well at Cornwall on Sunday night, picking up the win in his qualifying heat race after starting from outside the front row. In the 30 lap main event, he started from seventh place, and drove a solid race, moving up the leaderboard steadily. He ended the night with a strong third place finish.

“The car was pretty good tonight”, we just need to be a little better to contend for the win”, says Doiron. “It was a great points day for us, so we will take it and move on to next week”.

This coming week will be a 100 lap Canadian National Series event at Cornwall Motor Speedway. This is round two of the series, and Joel will be looking to improve on his 12th place finish in the last series race back on opening night at Cornwall.
