Champions Crowned at Season Finals
The Canadian Motorcycle Drag Racing Association wrapped up its 2020 season at the MHDRA drag strip in Medicine Hat, AB on September 12 and 13. Sponsored by local automotive dealer Davis GMC Buick, the final race of the year offered competitors one last chance to solidify their position in the overall points standings.
In the Pro classes, Matt Mackay-Smith, who arrived in Medicine Hat with his third consecutive MTMM Performance Pro Mod championship already wrapped up, ran the quickest ET of the weekend nearly breaking into the 6s with a 7.084 second quarter-mile time at 191.41 mph during the second elimination round before going on to take the final win of the season. Despite going out in the first elimination round of the weekend, Doug Casson’s lead in the season standings was enough for him to pick up the 2020 Welch Motorcycles Pro Dragster championship.
Sportsman classes were highlighted by another final elimination round showdown between Medicine Hat’s Toth brothers with Zach taking the win but Riley narrowly taking the season championship. The Crazy 8s class also went down to the wire with Bradley Shier’s trip to the final elimination round giving him enough points to take the 2020 championship.
On behalf of the CMDRA membership, the association’s directors would like to thank all of the sponsors, staff, volunteers, racers and fans for another successful season of motorcycle drag racing. The directors are currently considering options for a year end banquet to honour this season’s champions and annual awards winners, and an announcement will be made in the coming weeks.
