LIVERPOOL, N.Y. \u2013 November 28, 2013 \u2013 Again this year, DIRTcar Racing Northeast drivers, teams, car owners and partners have set the bar higher, and their accomplishments were recognized Saturday, Nov. 23, during the DIRTcar \u201cNight of Champions\u201d at the Holiday Inn Syracuse-Liverpool.<\/p>\n
Among the night\u2019s honorees was now eight-time Super DIRTcar Big-Block Modified Champion Brett \u201cthe Jet\u201d Hearn, claiming both the series champion and the Mr. DIRTcar Big-Block Modified Championship for his top-16 finishes all season.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t really get to enjoy the races that we win because we\u2019re always thinking about the next race. This is the only time, the banquet, that we get to celebrate it,\u201d Hearn said. \u201cThis time in a week, we\u2019re going to be sitting around and talking about Volusia.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hearn hasn\u2019t just been breaking records, he\u2019s been shattering them since his powerful comeback last year. He is the only driver to have claimed eight Super DIRTcar Series Championship titles; the only driver coming close is Jack Johnson with six series championships. With his win in last year\u2019s series finale during the World of Outlaws World Finals at The Dirt Track at Charlotte, Brett Hearn tied Alan Johnson in all time DIRTcar race wins. This year, he\u2019s claimed an additional nine victories to keep him at the top of the list.<\/p>\n
At the same time, Hearn proved his ability to rise to new challenges. He took victory August in his first-ever race at I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, Mich., adding Michigan to list of states where he has claimed wins. After his 2014 season, Hearn has won races in a total of nine states and two Canadian provinces.<\/p>\n
The legendary driver has also been dabbling in event promotion the past few years, and Brett Hearn\u2019s \u201cThe Big Show\u201d continues to grow. Hearn partnered with Albany-Saratoga Speedway in Malta, N. Y., to host the season\u2019s big race night, which featured full shows for the Super DIRTcar Big-Block Modified Series and the DIRTcar Pro Stock Series. This year Hearn accomplished something at his race he hasn\u2019t been able to do in the past \u2013 he picked up the win in the Big-Block Modified 100-lapper.<\/p>\n
Hearn and his car owner, Brian Madsen of Madsen Motorsports, thanked their entire team, both sponsors and crew members.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot comes with a good crew, a good team,\u201d Madsen said. \u201cThe guys that come up at night to the shop, a couple of them, and the ones on the road, it\u2019s really about them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hearn wasn\u2019t the only driver to carry out two trophies from the \u201cNight of Champions\u201d banquet. Erick Rudolph also won the series champion and Mr. DIRTcar championship in his division, the 358-Modifieds.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis has been a good year for us,\u201d Rudolph said. \u201cThis is definitely a career highlight.\u201d<\/p>\n
Years of hard work have paid off for other drivers who claimed their first Hoosier Tire-VP Racing Fuels DIRTcar Series Championships. Brad Rouse, of St. Catharines, Ontario, claimed two victories in the DIRTcar Sportsman Modified Series to make his way to the championship title. Perhaps the highlight of his season was a win at the Syracuse \u201cMoody Mile\u201d in the NAPA Auto Parts Super DIRT Week XLII Sportsman Modified Championship.<\/p>\n
\u201cEe just went in there to get in the show and take as many points as we could, but you pick up the win that\u2019s really something,\u201d Rouse reflected on Syracuse after pickup up his series championship trophy. \u201cIt\u2019s a great honor being there with a lot of the great runners there.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the DIRTcar Pro Stock division, Dave Bissonnette, of Cornwall, Ontario, also celebrated his first series championship.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt feels great,\u201d Bissonnette said, thanking crew members, sponsors and drivers like Joey Ladouceur and Rob Yetman who have given him advice throughout the years.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019ve been trying to do this for several years now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yetman took the trophy for Mr. DIRTcar Pro Stock points with ten wins throughout the season, one of those wins being during NAPA Auto Parts Super DIRT Week XLII.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat win at Syracuse really capped it off,\u201d Yetman said. \u201cWe\u2019ve been waiting to win that one for ten, fifteen years.\u201d<\/p>\n
Steve Bernier was crowned the MR. DIRTcar Sportsman Modified Champion with 12 DIRTcar wins throughout the season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really glad to be here with this level of drivers,\u201d Bernier said.<\/p>\n
Motorsports Safety Systems rookies of the year were recognized in all four divisions. Byron Westcott claimed the prize in the Pro Stock division, Joey Ladouceur in Sportsman Modifieds, Ryan Arbuthnot in 358-Modifieds, and the Motorsports Safety Systems-Butlerbuilt Big-Block Modified co-rookies of the year were Mat Williamson and Matt Billings.<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s Gater Racing News Super DIRTcar Big-Block Modified Series special recognition award went not to a driver, but Brockville Ontario Speedway\u2019s operators Paul and Cheryl Kirkland for their contribution to the sport. Billy Dunn was awarded the Xtreme Slick Move of the Season Award and the KSE Hard Charger Award. Coming up second in Super DIRTcar Series points, Matt Sheppard claimed the Area Auto Racing News Hard Luck Award.<\/p>\n
In addition to celebrating a great 2013, DIRTcar drivers, officials and partners looked forward to an even better year of racing in 2014.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll through the year we\u2019re growing again. We had an incredible Syracuse, an incredible World Finals,\u201d said World Racing Group chairman and CEO Brian Carter. \u201cIt only means it\u2019s going to be bigger and better for 2014.\u201d<\/p>\n
With Big Diamond Speedway, Brewerton Speedway, Fulton Speedway, Fonda Speedway and Glen Ridge Motorsports Park joining the already-strong DIRTcar Racing Northeast and premier racing facilities across the Northeast Region hosting series events, 2014 is set to be bigger and better than before.<\/p>\n
