Ward Jr. Takes His Eagle to Victory Lane
Kevin Ward Jr. Picks up first "A" main win of 2013 in his new Eagle from MEM at Autodrome Granby Friday May 31st.  Steve Poirier started on the outside of the font row and looked to have the win sealed up when young Kevin Ward Jr. started closing in at a rapid pace.  Ward continued the chase until he saw an opening on the bottom of turn 3 with a handful of laps remaining and made his move.
The Westward painting number 13 Eagle cruised from there to take the win.  Poirier held on for 2nd with Mike Parent coming from 11th to 5th.  Alain Boisvert in his first ever ESS sprint "A" main came home 13th with Patrick Vigneault finishing in 14th.

The following night on the ESS tour at Autodrome Drummond it was close but no cigar for the Eagle pilots.  Mike Parent, Kevin Ward Jr. and Steve Poirier chased Dylan Swiernik across the line finishing 2nd through 4th.  Cory Sparks just missed the top 5 in 6th with Dale Gosselin, Lee Ladouceur, Martin Roy, and Patrick Vigneault 9 through 14.

At Canandaigua Motorsports Park in the 305 Sprints, Daryl Ruggles won his third in a row at CMP as the division points leader took the lead from his daughter Alysha on lap seven and was never headed for the remainder of the event. “It was awesome to race with her,” Darryl said afterwards. “I thought she was a touch faster on the one restart.”  "I saw the 99 move to second on the leader board and knew I had to go"  Alysha finished a solid 3rd with MEM customers and Eagle chauffeurs Dan Kuhn getting an 8th and Nick Cooper finishing a disappointing 11th due to a flat right rear after making his way to 3rd in the main.

MEM / Eagle Customer Continue Winning Ways in Month of May

5/18 Weekend:
At Canandaigua Motorsports Park the Father Daughter combination of Daryl and Alysha have been on fire each picking up Heat wins  and then going on to have Alysha pull out to a big lead in the "A" main up until the 8th lap when a restart resulted in her Dad moving to the outside to go by for the win making it an all Ruggles top two!  Nick Cooper brought home his Eagle in 9th with Dan Kuhn placing 11th.
At Selinsgrove Speedway on the ESS Tour Young Hot Shoe Kevin Ward Jr. brought home his new Eagle with a 10th place "A" main run after having to come from the back of a heat race just to get into the show.  Other MEM / Eagle customer in the field unfortunately had some issues to deal with as Steve Poirier, Mike Parent, & Shawn Donath made the "A" with Partick Vigneault was a DNQ.
5/25 Weekend:  
Ruggles doubles up with back to back wins at Canandaigua Motorsports Park.  Daryl Ruggles had a strong showing in his heat to finish 2nd with young Alysha finding the turn 2 wall and tipping her Eagle over.  Repairs were made and she would go on to get into the "A" main but would have an early exit.  Daryl was strong and had to start from the middle of the pack due to handicapping.  As the laps started to tick off he was making fast work of moving to the front.  With 5 in the books he was already in the top 5, on lap 14 he made his move on David Ferguson and never looked back pulling out to a very sizable lead to cruse to his second win in a row.
At Utica Rome Speedway on the 26th it was Steve Poirier in victory lane but he certainly had a little help as misfortune for the Eagle of Shawn Donath hand Steve the win.  Donath was on a rail and had the field covered until 2 to go when a drive-line failure kept the potent number 53 ECG / Abbey Machine from victory lane.  It was heartbreaking for the team as Donath commented "This new Eagle from the MEM shops is just Plain Stupid Fast, we need a finish".  Poirier was very pleased with his run on the hard slick U/R surface as he bested the 1Z of Jessica Zemken and Stewart Friesen driving the Doug Emery owned and prepared number 33 Eagle.  Cory Sparks rounded out the top 10.  In Heat race action it looked like it was going to be a great night for the Eagle Chassis from the MEM shops as the finish was  - Friesen, Sparks, Parent, Poirier.

On the CRSA RaceSaver Tour the MEM / Eagle customers had what you would call a good and bad weekend.  The end results didn't show how strong they all were but through the night teams took notice of the Eagle Chassis competitors.  The Art Kiser Owned team with son Mike at the controls took the win with Dad directley behind him.  That however was not the story as coming to the white flag it was a four way battle for the top spot as Parker Evans in his new Eagle was making his move and got caught up in a lap car spinning in front of the leaders which took both Parker and Jordan Thomas out of competition.  Parker commented, the win was within our sights and I just cant seem to catch a break with the luck deal".  Evans did pick up a heat race win along with Mike Kiser and Jordan Thomas.

The Eagle Chassis customers continue to have strong showings in the Northeast over last weekend. Whether in a 305 RaceSaver program or a PST 360 program, the Eagle Chassis continues to run to the front. This past weekend, Nick Cooper put his new Eagle Chassis at the front of the field picking up his first "A" Main of the season at Canandaigua Motorsports Park after dominating his heat race as well. It was not an easy task in the "A" as young Dan Kuhn piloting his Eagle had the field covered for the first 15 rounds until the RR started to go away. Dan finished a fine 4th with local pilot Darryl Ruggles rounding out the top five in his Eagle Chassis with his daughter Alysha finishing another fine run in 8th.

The Patriot Sprint Tour was on the High Banks of Woodhull Raceway and Eagle Pilot Shawn Donath made the most of his first ever trip to the facility. Donath wheeled his mount to a heat win and followed it up with a strong 2nd place finish on the rear bumper of the MEM supported 51 of Bryan Howland. Donath actually led lap 19 in the tightly contested "A" main. Also with strong showings in the heats were Eagle Chauffeurs Cory Sparks picking up heat race 3 and Kevin Ward Jr. a tight 2nd to Sparks. In the "A" main, Sparks was just outside the top 5-finishing 6th as Ward Jr. experienced a mechanical issue with a shock and retired late in the running after staying consistently near the top five. Other MEM Eagle customers making their debut on the Patriot Sprint Tour were Parker Evans in his new 2013 Eagle and Young Tyler Graves in his pretty 25G.
