SAUBLE BEACH, Ontario — Despite going for a spin early in the feature, A.J. Emms rebounded for a podium finish on Saturday at Sauble Speedway.

Emms started off the night well, working his way forward in his first heat to take the top spot with three laps to go and score the victory. He then started pole for the second qualifier, holding off a heavy challenge from behind that included a couple bumps along the way for another checkered flag.

Taking the green flag in sixth for the feature, he began to make his way forward, taking over the third spot with six laps on the board. Unfortunately, contact from behind a lap later sent him around facing the wrong way in turn one and two.

Restarting at the tail of the field, he worked his way back through the traffic quickly to move into second with just 10 laps on the board. He would try to close the gap to the leader in the remaining 20 laps, but was unable to en route to a runner-up finish.

The result builds upon the team’s successful Just Foam it OSCAAR Modified series numbers, which include 40 heat wins, 57 top-five’s (second all-time) and 70 top-10’s (series leading) in 86 starts. The second-place finish also was his 18th consecutive top-10.

Emms Racing is proud to be supported by BAE Enviromental, Wolseley Lodge, TL Tire, Speedy Glass Orillia, Bromley Automotive Ltd, Black Barn Golf Cars, Jayne at Good Things Promo, and Short Track Musings for the 2024 race season.
