Chernosky channels two more winning performances at Thunder City, along with Shelley, Randt & Owen

THUNDER BAY, ON (August 13) - Cole Chernosky added another pair of victories to his total at Thunder City Speedway this season. Michael Shalley, Levi Randt and Selena Owen also notched WISSOTA Dirt Track Series wins on Thursday.

In the WISSOTA Modifieds, Chernosky pocketed his eighth victory of the season at the oval. He started alongside Curtis Stieh in the front row, and steadily pulled away to the checkered flag to win by over 4 seconds. Riley Matthews rallied from eighth to third with Tanner Henderson fourth and Scott McKinnon fifth.

Chernosky went to victory lane for the ninth time in the WISSOTA Super Stock division this season. Again, he redrew the pole for the main event and led every lap for the win. Rick Simpson chased Chernosky for much of the distance, but finished over 3 seconds back in the runner-up position. Nathan Roy was third with Jeremy Britten fourth and Tyler Kostecki fifth.

Shalley blistered the field for his third win of the season at the oval. He started on the pole, and stretched his advantage to over 8 seconds at the checkered flag. David Simpson worked his way forward from ninth to earn runner-up honors ahead of Glen Brown, Dan Tocheri, and Joel Macleod.

Randt made the trip across the border pay off once again with his seventh WISSOTA Street Stock victory of the season at the oval. He started on the pole en route to victory, and outran fellow front row starter Kyle Bolt to the checkers. Nathan Henny completed the podium, while Brendan Makkinga and A.J. Kellar rounded out the top five.

Owen collected her fifth win of the season in the WISSOTA Hornet division. She started on the inside of the third row, and steered to the lead just a few circuits into the 12-lap race. She turned back the charges of Martin Bolt to grab the checkers. Jesse Owen was third ahead of Sam Bolt and James Cuthbertson.

Hudson Sorensen scored the victory in the Junior Slingshot division.
