GAUDET AND LANDRY RECORD GRAND SLAMS DURING <\/p>\n

SUNDAY\u2019S STOCK CAR ACTION AT CFS<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Shediac, N.B.) — Former CFS Street Stock Champ, R\u00e9mi Gaudet (#22) and last year\u2019s runner-up in the Mini Stock division, Martin Landry (#00) both from Grand Barachois recorded grand slams during the POGO \u2018Full Contact\u2019 stock car racing event held on Sunday, May 30 at the Centre for Speed (CFS), Atlantic Canada\u2019s Super Speedway and \u201cMetro Moncton\u2019s Playground of Power\u201d.<\/p>\n


\nR\u00e9mi Gaudet did a great job of showcasing his Shediac Sportsman machine, which is currently for sale, by capturing wins in the heat, semifinal and 20-lap feature. Gaudet is busy building a Super Sportsman machine for CFS and decided to get a little seat time on Sunday in the car in which he captured the CFS track championship in 2007. In all three races, Gaudet showed his driving skills by using the outside groove to overtake the field after starting at the tail-end of the
\n pack.<\/p>\n

In both the heat and semifinal, Gaudet crossed the finish line ahead of Doug MacEwen (#40) of Charlottetown and Tim Layton (#6) of Hillsborough, while in the feature event, he chased down last week\u2019s feature winner, Don Marcoux (#27) of St. Louis-de-Kent and used the few inches at his disposal on the inside to capture the win ahead of Marcoux and Layton.<\/p>\n

In Mini Stock action, Martin Landry (#00) once again dominated the field to capture all three wins in the heat, semi and 20-lap feature thereby making a strong statement towards this season\u2019s championship which has eluded him by only a few points over the past two seasons. In both the semi-final and feature event, Landry crossed the stripe ahead of Denis Leblanc (#95) and Josh Simon (#71), both from Bouctouche.<\/p>\n

In Four Fun division action, Phil Coombes (#15) of Shediac Cape picked up wins in both the
\n 20-lap feature and heat, but had to settle for a third place finish in the semi-final. In the feature, only a few centimeters separated Coombes from second place finisher Serge Robichaud (#63) of St. Charles and the third place driver Corey Thebeau (#33) of Moncton. Robichaud\u2019s consolation was a win in the 15-lap semi-final. <\/p>\n

In Super Sportsman action, Luc Bourgeois (#88) of Memramcook continued his early season domination by capturing his second consecutive feature race ahead of rookie Matt Rodgers (#42) of Smithtown and veteran
\n Bert Cormier (#3) of Bouctouche. Bourgeois enjoyed a sparkling afternoon aboard his Ford Fusion by finishing second in both the semi-final and heat. Meanwhile, 15-year old Rodgers notched his first career Sportsman win in the 10-lap heat and then muscled his way around veteran driver Claude Gaudet (#22) of Grand Barachois with two laps to go in the feature for a well-earned second-place finish in the main event. Gaudet had to settle for first place hardware in the semi-final race.<\/p>\n

Finally, in Thrasher division action, P\u00eferre Leblanc (#111) banged, muscled and drove his 1988 Beach Wagon to the win in the POGO \u2018Full Contact\u2019 50-lap feature to claim the $500 first place prize. Kendall Grigg (#24) of Tyne Valley, PEI crossed the line in second spot aboard his 1992 Lincoln Continental.<\/p>\n

Racing returns to CFS in two week, on Sunday, June 13 at 2:00 p.m. with championship points racing in all four divisions of Super Sportsman, Shediac Sportsman, Mini Stock and Four Fun divisions as well as another event in the Thrasher division.<\/p>\n
