Leading the MTS Sprint Series points for the 2009 season is the 2007 Champion Steve Irwin. Steve’s two wins this year has set the bar high for the rest of the competitors this year.
Second and third place is occupied by two youngsters from Ohio, Landon Simon sits second in points with Mike Berkin a close third. Keith Love, recently out of retirement is having a great year and is fourth in points. The MTS 2008 and defending champion Mike Galadja is fifth. Another Ohio kid, Brent Smith is running strong and sits sixth. Veteran driver Mark Irwin has a slim margin of our Canadian friend Jon Watson from Ontario. The Rookie points battle is real close with Nick Rogers holding a 15 point lead over Roger Hunyady. Jim Payne is tied with hunyady for 10th place in points.
