It was the 19th career victory for the driver of the No. 22 Canadian Tire Dodge, which ties him for second on the series’ all-time list with D.J. Kennington. It was also the second win in nine visits to the .333-mile Maritime oval for Steckly, from Milverton, Ontario.

Camirand’s runner-up marked his best career finish in the series. Andrew Ranger crossed the line third while Mark Dilley ran fourth and J.F. Dumoulin fifth.

Jason Hathaway, L.P. Dumoulin, Gary Klutt, Joey McColm and rookie Jason Collins brought home the top 10.

Kennington, who set a track record in qualifying earlier in the evening, retired from the race just 40 laps in with a drive train failure while in the lead.

With his third win of the season, Steckly increased his championship lead to 12 points on Ranger with two races remaining. Hathaway is 19 points back.

In support class action the Atlantic Tiltload Maritime League of Legends ran the Cummins 50 with Jarrett Butcher winning, followed by Craig Langille and Justin MacNeill.
