O’Blenis Wins Firecracker 150 at Speedway 660 July 24, 2016 Regional GEARY, NB – On Saturday night, at Speedway 660, Dave O’Blenis proved that he is one of the best short-track stock car drivers in eastern Canada. O’Blenis took the lead 54 laps into one of the biggest sportsman races of the season on his way to winning the Clark Chevrolet Firecracker 150 for the fourth year in a row! “Winning this race never gets old and I am as thrilled to take the checkers tonight as I was when we won our first Firecracker 150 four years ago,” said O’Blenis. “The O’Blenis Motorsports Team worked hard all week to give me a great car tonight and their dedication to detail is one of the key reasons why we have been so successful in these big sportsman races in the last few years.” Drew Greenlaw, who won his heat race, led the Clark Chevrolet Firecracker 150 for the first 53 laps before O’Blenis grabbed the lead. Greenlaw had a great run but settled for a second-place finish. Lonnie Sommerville who won the other heat race drove his car to a third place finish. “Dave is a veteran with lots of experience in these big races and every time we race against him I learn a lot and hopefully one of these times we’ll find a way to beat him” said Greenlaw. “I am proud of our race team for providing me with a competitive car tonight and I want to also thank Clark Chevrolet for sponsoring the Firecracker 150.” Kyle Clark, from Clark Chevrolet, presents the 2nd place trophy to Drew Greenlaw.The young driver from Eastport, Maine had another great run on Saturday night and hopes to go to victory lane in one of these big sportsman races soon.
