Gary Adomko takes home three wins.
The season held its first six races in the afternoon.Gary Adomko, the Thunder Bay Autosport Club president and a competitor in the studded series with car number 57, won three races in his class.“I’ve changed it around a few times, but because we didn’t run last year, it gave me some additional time to refreshen the engine, which helped with today’s success and another fresh set of tires.
“The first few practice laps were knocking off a lot of rust, overdriving, underdriving, just doing all kinds of crazy things, but eventually, by about the last practice session, started to get most of the rust off and getting into some of the grooves or the paths that the car really likes to take. So, it worked out well,” said Adomko.
On Saturday, Environment Canada issued a snowfall warning for the city, forecasting up to five centimetres of snow after midnight and another 10 to 20 centimetres the following day with winds of up to 20 kilometres per hour. “The rubber-to-ice series that we also run with no studs, they use that snow to get a grip, so it works in their favour,” said Adomko.
