JR Fitzpatrick wins the Biederman Memorial
Monday - June - 2024MILLGROVE, Ontario — After going through a slew of motor problems, they all seem to be in the rearview mirror for J.R. Fitzpatrick after winning the Don Biederman Memorial on Saturday at Flamboro Speedway.
Fitzpatrick came into this season with high hopes, only to blow the motor running an event in the United States. He would quickly get it rebuilt, but overheating issues took him out of contention in the season opener for the Ontario Outlaw Super Late Models at Sunset Speedway.
Looking to rebound, he showed speed as soon as he showed up to Flamboro in laying down a lap of 15.109 seconds in qualifying to put himself at the top of the board. He carried the momentum into the 50
-lap feature, taking the lead with just seven laps on the board and driving away from the field to pace the rest of the way.
Todd Campbell picked up the runner-up finish after pacing the initial six laps ahead of Dario Capirchio, Glenn Watson and Ethan Cournyea. Brandon Passer spent the event just outside the top-five en route to sixth in front of Mike Miller and Rob Bickle.
Thayne Hallyburton found himself sidelined at Lap 35 to place ninth, while Adrian Foster did not take the green flag in the feature.
