Susice grabs first win of 2010 at Humberstone Speedway season opener.
Under heavy threats by the weather Gods, Toffolo Enterprises presented the 51st Season opener at Pt. Colborne's Humberstone Speedway Sunday Night. With a full 5 division show in hand a good opening night program was presented for the 2010 season.
In the 25 lap Cosco Haulage Sportsman feature, Cody McPherson and Ryan Susice with Mc Pherson grabbing the lead with Susice on the charge. Greg Panunte started third and is showing his strength on the outside. Lap 5 Panunte made a nice outside pass for the lead but the yellow would fly for Bill Gill and Doug Banner on lap 6. Panunte would grab the green on the restart. Nick Cupolo would strut his stuff to the top 3. Susice would take over 2nd and took a shot at Panunte on lap 13. Lap 15 Susice made a nice pass for the lead but Panunte would fight back. Lap 17 Susice would open a nice lead of about 5 car lengths. Lap 20 Panunte is once again on the charge and lap traffic would play havoc. The yellow flew with 2 to go for Nick Cupolo with problems in turn 3. Susice would grab the lead on the restart and would hold off Panunte, Mc Pherson Mark Dixon and B. J. Willard.
