Holy Jeepers....what a race....Wayne Johnson was "slicin and dicin" and won the Canadian Nationals!!! Congratulations Wayne!! What a great facility!!

Way to go Wayne from the ARP guys!!

Way to go Wayne.

Is a great track, went there for first time last night and love the small track next to pits used for push starting cars so none done on track.

Not saying it would make a difference but when caution came out on last lap how come they green - checker, not the usual green-white-checker?

From what I heard Jason Barney was catching Daggett for the lead but drove it in too hard and spun. then after restarting in the rear with 20 left he was up to 8th before getting clipped by a spinning car on the last lap and spinning. Believe me, if Barney hadn't screwed up, Johnson would not have caught him. The only other guy to move through the field like that was Blaney.

Don't get me wrong, Wayne is a great guy, and I was very happy when he passed Daggett to win it.

How foolish to say 'believe me' when you weren't there, ridiculous. He gets in two 'situations' and you still think he shoulda won, ridiculous again.

Congrats to WJ, maybe the best non-Outlaw in the country and up there with frequent Outlaw beaters TK and Tyler. Nothin' but talent in this guy's drivers suit. Take It Easy....

Congrats to Wayne Johnson and crew, this guy is the most under rated driver in the USA and also in Canada now!!!

Didn't say I think he SHOULD have won. I said he WOULD have won had he not screwed up. By the way, I've seen Jason race many times, and he rarely screws up. He's had an up and down season, and when you run such a limited schedule an event like this is a huge deal, especially after 2nd place finishes the past two years at this event. The first situation was his fault, but the second was not of his making, and to go from the rear back to 8th is pretty darn good. This was only his 13th start of the season and he has 5 wins. One of his wins was in a 1997 chassis against guys with new equipment If Jason had the money guys like Poirier do and ran a full ESS schedule, he wouldn't have made such a mistake. But after finishing 2nd the last two years and catching Daggett for the lead, he just showed he was human and got a little too excited. And I don't understand why you have to be a dick about every little thing.

Shoulda, woulda, coulda, didn't happen. I see by your second post which wasn't up when I started my original comments that you realized the error of your ways with your first post. Facts and reality vs. dreams and speculation, hardly 'every little thing', grow up. Cheerleading when you lose is a Posse fan specialty, Take It Easy.....

PS Results tell us that Wayne is also better than many Outlaws as well.....

Big Congratulations to WJ. I'm totally in agreement with fastasu. Maybe someone won the lottery in Iowa last night and will want to step up to the plate and help him with a sponsorship so everyone will get a chance to experience the talented "John Wayne" driving. Not to even mention the fact that he is one of the best wrenches there is!!

Don't take it personal rogue, dick is what Nelligan does. I listened to the race just like you and was cheering for Jason. His time will come.

Cheerleaders unite, how 'bout a shot in your skirts ladies? On the positive side, I hope this guy gets some sponsorship help and out of NY, sounds like he has some major talent. Take It Easy.....

MSPN... you know what.... wait, was that a compliment?

Does anyone know if Wayne is planning on running the World Finals in Charlotte at the end of October?

.

Yes - planning on being there in the 14AJ.

Anything going on between now and the next ASCS race?

I don't think so other than working on getting his shop done!

Actually he'll be heading to Chico this weekend for the Fall Nationals! Go Wayne!!

Thanks, Pong. That's great to know. I should be able to make that one. I love Chico..go Wayne!!
