- Johannson: Wow, that was the craziest thing I've run in... Don't know how I got through it with a Top 10, to be honest. Nearly crapped my pants coming outta pit road there. The team got the setup down to where I wanted it and we never had much of a problem runnin' the course all day long. I'm no road course guru, but it's definitely a step in the right direction.

Scott Wheeler benched for Duluth
PWRT have done what they have to. Rookie Super Series driver Scott Wheeler will sit out the next round at Duluth after a string of incidents at Mosport, where he wrecked a number of cars as he came through the field on fresher tyres, including championship contender Justin Slade. PWRT owners Rex Williamson and Edward Summers said in a statement, "Wheeler has shown flashes of speed, but we as an operation do not tolerate numerous wrecking of opponents. What Scott showed out on the track this weekend was not acceptable and we have made this decision in order to give him time to reflect on his driving and hopefully improve and be back racing fairly and cleanly".
Wheeler will be replaced by Max Holifield, the younger brother of the team's Elite Series driver Danica. It is expected that he will be back at Langhorne.
Meanwhile, the team's main driver Johnson Clapp sits 10th in points, 98 points off the championship lead.

- Durbin Recovers to Score Top 5 Finish @ Mosport
The Mosport International Raceway produced a thriller for the first ever FARC Duckroll Super Series race at the circuit, with Andy Pearson making a last-lap pass on Osvaldo Ramirez to take the win after an action-packed Green White Checker finish. It also brought a much-needed turnaround performance for the #3 Lenard of Riley Durbin.
The 2015 FARC season began on a very high note for the rookie when he qualified on the front row for the Elite Series' Smash Beer 200 at Texas World Speedway, but the first quarter of his Super Series season has largely been one to forget. An accident in the season-opener resulted in him not being medically cleared to start the 200, and each of his Super Series races since then have also been plagued by crashes.
Today's race at Mosport appeared to be shaping up to be more of the same, as Durbin was turned into the right-side frontstretch wall early on in the going, but quick work by the #3 pit crew and some fast laps from the driver put the car in the top 10 for the Green White Checker restart, and Durbin brought the car home in the 4th-position, scoring the first top 5 and first top 10 of his FARC Duckroll Super Series career.
The road course at Mosport is the circuit where Riley Durbin made his ARLA debut in the Elite Series race in 2013 for Ike Durbin, Inc. Focus Autosports also has one race weekend of experience at the track, as the team's part-time Elite Series effort earned a 9th-place finish last year in the Feature race with driver Vincenzo Fochesato.
The next race for the FARC Duckroll Super Series will be at the season's only other road course, when the short-but-technical Duluth Raceway hosts the 6th round of the championship.
