KENNINGTON READY TO PUT CASTROL EDGE DODGE BACK IN VICTORY LANE

September 21, 2022. DJ Kennington and the #17 Castrol Edge Dodge team will close out the 2022 NASCAR Pinty’s Series this coming Sunday in the Pinty’s Fall Brawl at Delaware Speedway near London, Ontario. It’s the track where Kennington began his stock car racing career and has enjoyed an enormous amount of success.

In nine previous Pinty’s Series events at Delaware Speedway, Kennington has claimed five victories. Last season due to rescheduling for weather issues, the final three races of the year were run at Delaware Speedway, Kennington claimed the win in the #17 Castrol Edge Dodge in two of those three races.

The St. Thomas, Ontario driver has also scored the pole position in two races, 2010 and 2012, his championship winning seasons. The #17 Castrol Edge driver has never finished lower than fifth position in any of the nine races.

2022 has also been another year of high achievement for Kennington and the #17 Castrol Edge Dodge team collecting four podium finishes including a victory at Saskatoon in July. Kennington sits third in the overall championship standings, just a single point back from second place.

Here’s what you need to know.
