Saskatoon WCC

The weekend of July 1-4, 2010 was the thrid and fourth rounds of the Western Canadian Championships in Saskatoon, SK.

Scott was again running in two classes. Rotax DD2 Masters and Rotax Sr. Being that it was his home track he was very hopefull of a going showing.

Saturday began with a pole in DD2 overall and in Rotax a solid 4th in qualifying. In the prefinals Scott would show his experiance and walk away with the win in DD2 and would make the move up to 3rd place in the Rotax Sr. Not much would change in the finals in DD2 as again he would walk away with the win but yet again he would make a position up in the Rotax Sr. class up to 2nd overall.

Back at the track the next day Scott was again hoping for another good day. Once again he would grab the pole in DD2 overall and again would end up in the 4th spot in Rotax Sr. In the prefinals Scott would not look back and win by a large victory in DD2 and in Rotax would jump on a couple drivers mistakes and end up with a solid 2nd place finish. Starting on the front row of both classes would prove to be hard to shake him of and would finish second overall but win the DD2 masters class behind his new teammate Travis MacDonald. In the Rotax class he would slip back to third off the start with a stuck power valve but by turn 5 it pooped free and was then good to go. He would size up the second place driver and eventually make the move up with a couple laps left but not enough time to catch the leader Tyler Wheeler.

With the weekend over and two wins in DD2 Masters and two second place finishes in Rotax Sr. it places him well in both classes for the championship run.




Next race is in Edmonton, AB at the end of the month on the August long weekend.
