BRIGHTON, Ont. (June 11, 2022) – Ryan Turner was back in victory lane on Saturday night at Brighton Speedway after his second consecutive Southern Ontario Sprints tour triumph.

Brown settled for the runner-up spot, followed by Turkey, Holly Porter, and Mitch Brown. Chris Jones charged from row six to finish sixth, followed by Cory Turner, row seven starter Liam Martin, Tyler Rand, and Jamie Turner. Heat race wins were taken by Jake Brown and Ryan Turner.
