OYSTER BED BRIDGE, P.E.I. – Cole Butcher of Porter’s Lake, N.S., picked up his second victory of the season and his first Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour win at Oyster Bed Speedway Saturday in front of a capacity crowd.
Brudenell’s Jonathan Hicken battled hard with Butcher but ended up second in the caution-filled Parts for Trucks 150. Springvale’s Greg Proude, who won the race in 2017, completed the podium, followed by Nicholas Naugle (Dartmouth, N.S.) and Cornwall’s Dylan Gosbee.
Steve Lively (Shubenacadie, N.S.), Dylan Blenkhorn (Truro, N.S.) and Naugle won Atlantic Tiltload heat races, which set the field for the Parts for Trucks 150. Naugle’s fourth-place finish earned him the King Freight future winner award. Waylon Farrell (Conception Bay South, N.L.) goes home with the Exide Batteries rookie of the race with a 10th-place finish.
Coady Palmer won the Outlaw 50 while Craig MacDonald took the victory for the Maritime League of Legends Tour prior to the Parts for Trucks 150 feature.
The Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour is off this weekend before returning to Riverside International on Saturday, July 14, for the IWK 250 presented by Steve Lewis.
