Scott wins one for Canada

From Feld Motor Sports

NEW ALEXANDRIA, PA -- Canadian Mike Scott topped Jake Stordeur in the Nitro Harley final at the inaugural Pittsburgh Nitro Jam at Pittsburgh Raceway Park on Saturday night. It was the British Columbian's third win of the season.

Stordeur led round one with a weekend best 5.540, 201.61 in a win over Steve Dorn to take lane choice in the final against Scott, who recorded a win over Friday winner Jay Turner.

In the final Stordeur got off the line first and appeared to be well on his way to picking up his first career Nitro Jam victory, but he lost power near halftrack and Scott was able to power past his opponent to take the win. Scott recorded a 5.625, 198.06 in the final to Stordeur’s 6.236, 151.21.

In the consolation Dorn finally found his groove in a win over Turner.

Next up for Nitro Jam is a trip west for back-to-back races in Utah and Alberta. The western swing will begin the weekend of July 17-18 at the Salt Lake Nitro Jam at Rocky Mountain Raceways.
