Wilson furious


Shortly after being taken out on lap 1 of the Tim Horton's 200, Denver Wilson was seen throwing a large Television onto pit road.

"I wanted to have a better debut. I don't think that was a good way to start my big league career."

Wilson also stated that, his confidence has been depleted.

"I just feel like I cannot do what I want to on track. We'll see what happens I guess".

Reed Tanner pleased with debut.

"We had a great car today, the 78 was running like a beast, I'm seriously looking forward to the rest of the season." Reed Tanner said, after climbing out of the 78.

Killgore happy about debut

To Dan Fortner, sorry about almost spinning you out. But on the other hand, I never thought my first race would end like this!

Defending Team Champion Fortner Motorsports Starts Season in Top Ten, Dan Fortner Puzzled about Killgore's Driving

Fortner Motorsports goes off on the right footing this time as the defending team champion graduating from the modifieds to the LNT cars. Defending champion Treyson McBeel started on the pole capturing his fourth career pole in the AAPMT to LNT transition. He starts the season in a tie for 10th.

Teammate Dan Fortner was almost spun by Kiara Killgore and after the race, he was puzzled saying this to the press:

"You know, something just begs me to ask what is up with the inexperience of Kiara Killgore. This is truly uncalled for. I know she appologized for nearly spinning me out and I accept it, but, that's just not right. We're barely getting off on the right footing with this Fortner Motorsports Pontiac program. I mean, yeah. Sure. I'm in my first season here, too, but I have had some testing time with Treyson in the modifieds before we switched completely over to the LNT full-bodied stock cars. We are now underway to helping Fortner defend its team championship and Treyson with defending his title. Who knows? Perhaps I'll end up with it, too, if all things go well after this."

Treyson McBeel, last year's modified champion says this:

"This is a hard track to race on. It's the handling and the restrictor plate kind of racing that can really come up and bite you if you're not on top of your game. We had the pole and just lost the footing on the Pontiac for some reason. Don't know why that is, but, starting in the top ten is way better than where I first started in the open-wheel modifieds. My experience in other stock car leagues has led me to this point, and this will soon help bolster my chances of going into the AYG and AERS leagues in the future. I'm already in the NCSTT program with the Shell Motorsports and Keith Jesses Racing conglomerate. I'm pretty sure we can get this thing done throughout this season as the Logitech National Tour defending champion."
