  CHRISTIE CAPTURES THE FLAG IN SOS RETURN TO MERRITTVILLE

  THOROLD, Ont. (July 11, 2026) - The Southern Ontario Sprints made a blistering return to Merrittville Speedway on Saturday night. D.J. Christie scored the victory, leading flag-to-flag in the 25 lap feature. D.J. Christie and Jacob Dykstra brought the field to the green flag in a race that turned out to be free of caution flags. Christie jumped out to an early lead ahead of Dykstra, Darren Dryden, Josh Hansen, and Travis Cunningham. As Christie paced the field and started to catch traffic, Dykstra started to eat into the second and a half gap that Christie had built between the top two. The traffic proved just as challenging for Dykstra as it had been for Christie, who found clean air again after lapping past five cars. Hansen ran down Dryden and appeared to have the pace run down the front two, but he sustained damage to his front wing which slowed his progress. Christie claimed the win and took over at the top of the SOS championship points standings. Dykstra and Hansen rounded out the podium, while Dryden finished fourth, and Kyle Phillips took fifth from Cunningham in the closing laps. The entire 25 lap feature was run in a little over six and a half minutes. Heat race wins went to Dykstra, Cory Turner, and Hanson, while Aaron Turkey was the fastest driver in qualifications.

  Great Lakes Super Sprints Ready for International Affairs Friday & Saturday in Ontario, CAN

  Merrill, MI - The Great Lakes Super Sprints Presented by PERFIT & ARP (GLSS) are prepared for an international showdown this weekend as the best of the GLSS head to Ohsweken Speedway on Friday night and Buxton Speedway on Saturday night to take on Ontario, Canada's best. The new American Racer tire for GLSS this season may be the variable needed to bring an end to the Canadian's reign on their home soil. The first GLSS events in Ontario came in 2024 with a Thursday and Friday doubleheader at Ohsweken Speedway. The races were co-sanctioned with the Southern Ontario Sprints and Ohsweken Speedway weekly divisions. Dylan Westbrook handled business both nights in Ohsweken before the Tour moved to Buxton Speedway on Saturday night. Darren Dryden started on the pole and held off challenges from Ryan Turner and DJ Christie for the win. Last year, Dryden overcame a start violation on the opening green flag to go to Victory Lane for the second time with GLSS and his first career win at Ohsweken Speedway. The next night at Buxton Speedway, DJ Christie punched his ticket to the winner's club with GLSS. The Ontario regulars have had their home turf locked down in recent years, but things could equalize as GLSS brings in a few weeks of familiarity on the new American Racers. Coming into the weekend, the best finishes among GLSS regulars have been around fifth. Last year, 2018 Tour Champion, Dustin Daggett, finished fourth at Buxton Speedway a night after finishing sixth at Ohsweken. In 2024, Max Stambaugh carried the GLSS banner, finishing seventh and 11th at Ohsweken before finishing fifth at Buxton to close out the weekend. This year, to balance the Canadian's familiarity with the tracks, the GLSS teams' familiarity with the American Racer tire may level the playing field. Teams have had 10 races on the MC3 right-rear and the SD38 left rear. In those 10 races that the American Racer has been legal, eight different drivers have gone to victory lane, with only Zane DeVault capturing multiple wins this season. The international affair for GLSS begins Friday, June 26th at Ohsweken Speedway. General Admission gates open at 6:00 PM with racing at 7:30 PM. On Saturday at Buxton Speedway, racing is set to begin at 7:00 PM. Fans who can't make the trip can catch the action all weekend long on GreatLakesSprints.TV.
