Big Weekend Ahead for Billy Dunn With Third Consecutive Mohawk Raceway Championship and First Canandaigua Championship in Reach

As Billy Dunn approaches this weekend as a regular weekend with a busy as usual attitude, it hard not to look at the point standings and look at what could be once this weekend’s championship weekend concludes. Dunn has a healthy 32 point advantage at Mohawk Raceway, and is in the opposite position at Canandaigua looking to make up 28 points as he looks to capture his first championship at that track. Unlike Mohawk, Dunn will have double points on the line in the final feature, and will also have a makeup feature from a couple weeks back to get in as well.

Dunn has had a great season once again in the Laurent Ladouceur owned ride at Mohawk International Raceway, posting three features wins, and only one finish outside of the top five all year long, coming with a mechanical failure on opening night. He will be looking to nail down his third consecutive track title at MIR, and match his three consecutive track titles from 2009-2011 at Can Am.

Dunn has been consistent most of the season at Canandaigua with a pair of feature wins to go along with his solid season in the Number One Speed Big Block Modified. He will have 28 points to make up in order to hoist the championship trophy at the end of the night, but will have the August 16th makeup feature to run first before the qualifying heats, and ending the night with a double points feature.

“It is going to be an exciting weekend, and we are definitely prepared on both ends (Mohawk and Canandaigua). We will give it our best and hopefully it will play out in our favor at the end of the night”, says Dunn. “It has been a good season, and I would really like to thank Dad, uncle Tim and all these guys on the crew that help us out each week at the shop and at the track”.

Billy Dunn would like to thank Number One Speed, FastLube of Watertown, Finger Lakes Auto Machine, Glen A. Gould Estate Construction, Frosty’s Ice Cream, and Bicknell Racing Products for their continued support for the 2014 racing season. He would also like to thank Laurent Ladouceur and the Mr. Radiator Race team for the opportunity to race their 358 Modified at Mohawk Raceway on Friday nights again this season.
