PORT COLBORNE, Ontario – Reigning Super DIRTcar Series champion Mat Williamson picked up a $2,300 payday for winning Saturday’s Lockdown Showdown for DIRTcar 358 Modifieds at New Humberstone Speedway.

Dalton Slack and Williamson were on the front row for the feature, with Williamson jumping into the lead. Steve Bernier would challenge Slack for second early on. Mike Bowman would lose positions early as Austin Wood, Gary Lindberg and Todd Gordon were able to get by Bowman to go into positions four, five and six.

Williamson would hit lap traffic early on, with Simon Harvey-Perreault spinning in turn three to bring out the races’ first caution on lap 13. Off the restart, both Bowman and Lindberg began their marches towards the front. Bernier would move into second with Bowman and Lindberg entering the top five shortly thereafter. Williamson would lead Bernier to the line at the end of the first 25-lap segment.

The second 25-lap segment would see Williamson and Bernier battle for the lead as Bowman and Lindberg raced for third. Bernier would look to the outside of Williamson with 10 laps remaining, but went over the edge of the track and lost ground to the leader. Williamson would go on to score the win over Bernier and Mike Bowman. Gary Lindberg would finish in fourth and Todd Gordon would complete the top five.

In other action, Justin Ramsay earned $1,300 for winning the JC Auto Thunderstock feature.

Racing took place without fans in the stands and all drivers and crews practiced social distancing as guidelines and recommendations were in place by the Ontario Ministry of Health.
