Congratulations Campbell Stewart !
DRIVER OF THE WEEK: The Bingley's Auto Body Auto Body Driver of the Week Award for Saturday, June 6th, 2026, deservedly goes to Fitzpatrick Consulting Street Stock rookie Campbell Stewart!
It may be back-to-back events with the award going to a Street Stock competitor from Oyster Bed Bridge, but this young talent made it difficult to choose otherwise.
The reigning Mini Stock champion went from a tough Street Stock debut at the May Long Weekend Season Opener — a solid fourth in his heat race, an early semi race exit due to a mechanical failure, and missing the feature entirely — to almost pulling off a stunning triple on Fan Appreciation Night this past Saturday!
Standard weekly lineup procedures put Stewart — at the bottom of the standings — on pole for all three races, and he had zero problem running away from a plethora of veterans and former champions during his 12-lap heat and semi races.
As for the 25-lap feature, Stewart held up strong, leading more laps on his own and being challenged by defending champion Matthew Ford following a pair of early restarts. Stewart managed to clear back ahead with 12 laps remaining, but ultimately fell victim to a hard-charging Colton Ford not long after. Still, Stewart settled for a statement runner-up finish.
For a driver who entered the season focused on gaining seat time and experience in a former championship-winning hotrod, Campbell went out and performed with shades of his father, Tyler Gauthier, the way that car roared around the high banks on Saturday — a sight to behold.
It only makes us more excited for what’s to come next! Congratulations, Campbell, and expect a prize presentation this Saturday, June 13th!
