August 9, 2005, Mt. Albert, ON - Driving the PowerWater Micks Motorsports 2005 Ford Taurus, Kerry Micks finished a disappointing 19th in the CASCAR Super Series in Bowmanville, Ontario on Saturday in the Mosport Speedway 200.

“We had a motor go south on us about 40 laps into the race Saturday night. It’s really unfortunate, but there are some things that we just can’t control,” explained Micks. “There will be a brand new engine in the car for this weekend and we will test it at Mosport this week, just to be sure everything is OK.”

DJ Kennington won the Mosport Speedway 200 event followed by Don Thomson Jr. and Ron Beauchamp Jr.

“We always run well at Cayuga, the PowerWater Ford finished second there twice last year and we knocked off two thirds the year before that,” added Micks. “If all things remain equal and we have any luck at all we should be in great shape at Cayuga.”

Micks, with three wins this season in the PowerWater Micks Motorsports Ford, sits in sixth position in the 2005 CASCAR Super Series Points Championship.

The CASCAR Super Series race will take place Sunday, August 14 at Cayuga Speedway located in Nelles Corners, Ontario on the 5/8th-mile oval.
