Although the points races ended in August, the 2014 season at Estevan Motor Speedway officially wrapped up on Sunday.
One week after the popular Eve of Destruction event, the Speedway played host to two more undertakings on the weekend.
On Saturday, there were features in the modified, stock car and hobby stock classes, with a total of $5,000 to be won. The winner of the modified feature won $3,000, the stock car champ took home $1,300 and the hobby winner earned $700.
Ed Turnbull was the winner of the cheque in the modified race, edging past Mason Big Eagle.
Turnbull took the high line to get past Big Eagle on lap 12, and he said it was mostly a matter of necessity.
"The middle was used up and the bottom busy, so I just followed my pattern," he said.
He then followed the lines the other drivers were using while lapping part of the field in the 25-lap feature. That way, he avoided getting mixed up in slower traffic as Big Eagle kept up a relentless pursuit after being passed.
"The Big Eagle guys are very good drivers. I think if he had gone up the high line I would never have been able to pass him. Once I did, though, I managed to get into a rhythm and got the line I liked right through to the finish."
Gregg Mann captured the checkered flag in the stock car feature, while Riley Raynard capped off an impressive second half of the season by winning the hobby feature.
On Sunday, the 10th annual enduro race was held.
The enduro is an event in which many cars slog it out through muddy conditions to see who can complete the most laps in an hour and a half. There is plenty of contact between the vehicles, which are generally old and beat up. Drivers who compete in the three regular classes are not allowed to run in the enduro, as it is geared toward first-time drivers.
Results from the enduro were not available at press time.
