Frank
Davey - 2003 Thunder Car Champ
September
20, 2003 - It was a touch-and-go night for Frank Davey, with
mechanical gremlins on the final night of racing helping add
drama to a close points race. Frank would prevail, capturing
the 2003 Thunder Car Championship.
Frank
has been racing full time for 5 years, and he's definitely
made his mark on the Central Ontario short track scene. In
that time, he has never finished worse than second in the
final points standings. Three of those years were raced here
at Sunset and the other two at Barrie Speedway, with one championship
at each track. He also was the Thunder Car tech here at Sunset
in the early 90s before deciding to don the racing helmet.
This Camaro is the first car Frank has built completely from
scratch, and it certainly proved it's worth over the course
of this championship season.
Frank
would like to thank Annette and the kids for their patience
and support throughout the season. 400 Auto Wreckers has been
a big supporter of the effort, as well as Mark Dean from G
Fuels and Mickey from Bradford Print Shoppe.
