The Fourth of July promises to provide plenty of fireworks as the Outhouse Image & Design UMP Modified Summer Sizzler will heat up the summer night this Saturday at South Buxton Raceway.

South Buxton’s Schinkel’s Gourmet Meats UMP Modified class will be trying to prevent Tilbury’s Tim Richardson from completing a Sizzler sweep on their own track.

Richardson, a three-time points champion at South Buxton who now races predominately in the United States, won the first leg of the home-and-home Summer Sizzler at Ohsweken on June 19.

Rain fizzled the Sizzler the following night at South Buxton, forcing the schedule change to this Saturday.

As a result of the change, the UMP Modified Can-Am Clash originally slated for this Saturday has been cancelled and will not be rescheduled.

 As his race team was closing up the No. 88 hauler after Saturday night’s races, a well-wisher asked Andrew Reaume if he was “just toying with him.”

“No, I was doing everything I could … I was racing him hard, he wasn’t giving me anything,” Reaume replied.

The ‘he’ Reaume was referring to was Kirk Hooker, who was less than two laps away from his first feature win since 2007.

Instead, Hooker had to settle for a second-place finish as he watched Reaume rally to win his ninth straight UMP Late Model regular season feature at South Buxton Raceway.

It was Reaume’s fourth feature win in four Ultimate Sandblasting & Coatings UMP Late Model features this season, after winning the final five features - including the season championship race - in 2008.

Two other drivers made return trips to Victory Lane on Saturday - Chris Van De Wiele in the Schinkel’s Gourmet Meats UMP Modifieds for the third time and Gary Vyse in the Sun Parlour Trailers Sport Stocks for a second time.

Brandon Windsor won his first Four Seasons Driver Education Comp 4 feature of the season.

Saturday was the first of two Kids Nights for the season, co-sponsored by Dor-Co Garage Doors, Timm-Con and Burger King. The next Kids Night is Aug. 8, presented by Country View Golf Course and McDonalds Restaurants.

You couldn’t blame Jim Ellis if he cringed just a little on Sunday when his family lit the candles on his birthday cake.

The night before, it was his race car that was lit up.

Ellis’ No. 32 car was virtually destroyed in a spectacular fire at South Buxton Raceway in the Sun Parlour Trailers Sport Stocks feature race.

Results are posted under Track Stats. Please go to Photos under the Multimedia icon for more photos by James MacDonald from Saturday’s racing action. Check back for expanded coverage, including pictures and updated standings.
