Held at the Cayuga Dragway of Toronto Motorsports Park during its Victoria Day Weekend Challenge, winners were declared in the Pro Modified Racing Association, the Quick 32 Sportsman Series presented by NAPA Auto Parts, and the Pro Bike & Sled Series presented by Wiseco Performance Products.

Winning the PMRA event was Rocky Di Lecce of Mississauga, Ontario. Bill White of Gadshill, Ont., won the Quick 32 Sportsman Series race, and Dan Cryderman of Thamesville, Ont., won the PBSS race.

Di Lecce, driving his 1968 Camaro Pro Modified, owned the Cayuga track over the weekend, qualifying number one with a 5.964-second, 242.98-mph pass and never looking back, defeating number-eight qualifier Jeff Roth of New Dundee, Ont., in the final.

Di Lecce took a bye run in the first round, and then took out Jay Santos (near lane) of Halton Hills, Ont., in the semi-round.

Jason Kalso of Clarkston, Mich., was the other semi-finalist, losing to Roth.
