Dylan Breen’s Fantastic Start to 2013 Season Hindered by Recent String of Bad Luck at Brockville Speedway

It has been a good start to the 2013 season for Dylan Breen, and this recent string of bad luck over the past two weeks will not keep the team down as they look ahead to the upcoming weekend. The car has been fast with each outing, and despite the bad luck, optimism remains high during this breakout season.

The bad luck started at Brockville during the second week of the year. It was a 40 lap race and first round of the Seaway Sportsman Series. Breen led the race early, and was well in contention late in the race an unexpected issue with the right front wheel sent him off the track. Although frustrated with the final outcome, the team was thrilled with their overall performance with many of the region’s top Sportsman drivers in attendance.

This past Saturday night at Brockville, Breen started his qualifying heat race from the eighth position and moved up two spots to sixth in the 8 lap preliminary qualifying event. In the 25 lap feature, he started from the 14th position, and was biding his time through the opening laps. On lap seven, Breen was caught up in crash in turn one. Dylan was able to recover after restarting the race from the rear of the field, and finished the race in 15th place. After three weeks of racing at Brockville, he currently sits fifth in track points for the Sportsman division.

This coming Saturday night, Dylan will return to the Brockville Speedway for the first of three 40 lap races in the Ogilvie’s Auto Triple Crown Series.

Dylan Breen Continues to Roll Early in 2013 with a Third Place Finish at Brockville Speedway Season Opener

After starting the 2013 season with back to back top ten finishes at Can Am Motorsports Park, Dylan Breen and his team were looking forward to getting started this past weekend at their home track, Brockville Ontario Speedway.

Dylan started his qualifying heat race from the outside of the front row and after a great battle he came out on top, taking the heat race victory. The win earned him a front row starting spot for the 25 lap feature. Breen maintained the second place spot for the opening five laps of the race but fell back slightly to fifth. Late in the race, Breen started to climb back into contention, moving to fourth place as they completed lap17 and back up to third place just five laps later, and crossed the line in third place.

“It was a great run for us tonight”, says Breen. “This new Bicknell has worked great for us so far”. We are working hard to be a consistent contender every night at the BOS, and tonight was the first step towards achieving that goal.

Breen will be back at Brockville Speedway this coming Saturday night, looking to continue his strong start to the 2013 season and capture his first ever Sportsman feature win.

Dylan Breen Continues Strong Start to Season With Another Top Ten Finish at Can Am; Brockville Speedway Opener Set For Saturday Night

With a top ten finish to start the 2013 season last weekend, Dylan Breen was looking forward to getting back to Can Am Motorsports Park once again to build on their strong first week performance. Dylan and the team also had a test session at Brockville Speedway scheduled for Saturday afternoon.

Although he struggled in the qualifying heat race and had to start deep in the 26 car field on Friday night at Can Am, Breen was able to dial in his car before the start of the 25 lap main event. At the drop of the green flag he started to move through the field, and by lap 10 he was up to the ninth position. A late race caution slowed the pace with just three laps remaining, and Dylan had worked his way to eighth place, and gained one more spot once the race resumed, and crossed the finish line with a solid seventh place result.

“We are off to a good start this season”, says Dylan after the race. “This new Bicknell car is really working well for us. Hopefully we can continue this once Brockville opens up this coming weekend”.

On Saturday afternoon, Dylan turned some fast laps at Brockville Speedway, looking to get some seat time at his weekly 2013 track. After a successful day of practice, Breen headed home, confident and excited about the season opener this coming Saturday night.

Dylan Breen would like to thank all of the sponsors for their support for the 2013racing season.

Dylan Breen Gets Impressive Top 10 Finish on Opening Night at Can Am Motorsports Park; Can Am and Brockville Speedway Practice Coming Up

Dylan Breen made his maiden voyage for the 2013 racing season this past weekend as the traveled to Can Am Motorsports Park in Lafargeville, New York this past Friday night. Breen was looking to get some laps in their new Bicknell chassis, and hoping to build some momentum going into the season at Brockville in a couple weeks.

Breen started his qualifying heat from deep in the field, and worked his way up to finish in fourth place. After the race winner was disqualified, Breen was credited with a third place result in the preliminary qualifying event. This put Breen in the seventh position to start the 25 lap main event. Before the first caution of the race on lap five, Breen had moved into the top five and was looking strong. He continued to battle inside the top five through halfway, but as the final laps counted down, the handling started to deteriorate, and Breen slipped back to 10th place before the checkered flag.

“We were really happy with how the car worked the first half of the race, but the car really went away over the final few laps”, said Breen after the race. “We are going to come back here tomorrow and run some more laps and try a few things out to get better for next week”.

This coming weekend, Breen will return to Can Am Motorsports Park on Friday night looking to improve on their strong performance from this past week. On Saturday, Breen will tackle the Brockville Ontario Speedway for their practice session in preparation for their opening night on Saturday, May 11th.

Dylan Breen would like to thank all of the sponsors for their support for the 2013racing season.

Dylan Breen Gaining Valuable Experience Following DIRTcar Sportsman Tour; Looking Ahead to Applefest Weekend and Super DIRT Week


The 2012 racing season didn’t go according to plan for Dylan Breen as several problems plagued the team throughout the season.  However, with a new chassis, and a new outlook towards the end of the year, Breen has been following the Mr. DIRTcar Sportsman Series and is looking to gain some valuable experience towards the 2013 season.

Just a couple weeks ago, Breen attended the DIRTcar Sportsman Series races at Ransomville Speedway, Merrittville Speedway and Humberstone Speedway.  All three were tracks that Breen had never even seen before, let alone raced at.  Although he was unable to qualify, the experience that they gained made the trip worthwhile, and will have setup information to fall back on when they make the trip next season with the Sportsman Series.

This past weekend, the DIRTcar Sportsman tour continued at Mohawk International Raceway in Hogansburg, New York.  A tough field of nearly 40 Sportsman cars were in action once again, but this time Breen was able to make the show.  The end result was a 19th place finish on a very slick race track that had became one lane and tough to pass.

“We are learning, and getting better each time we are on the track”, says Breen.  “It has been a tough season, but our goal now towards the end of the season is to qualify for these races and keep learning as much as we can and build on it for next season”.

Breen will be at Brighton Speedway for their annual Applefest events on Friday night.  This will be the next round of the Mr. DIRTcar Sportsman Series.  After Brighton, the team will prepare for their first ever appearance at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse for Super DIRT Week beginning on October 3rd and going through October 6th for the Syracuse Sportsman Championship race.  Breen will run the Sportsman Futures race at the Fairgrounds as well on the Thursday of Super DIRT Week. The 2012 season will conclude on Sunday, October 14th at Brockville Speedway as part of the 1000 Islands RV DIRTcar Northeast Fall Nationals.

Dylan Breen would like to thank all of the sponsors for their support for the 2012 racing season.  These sponsors are AME Environmental, Backyard Fence & Deck, Gananoque Chev Olds, Upper Level Doors, Blueman Coatings, J.T. Hoekstra Construction, Larson Construction, Wallace Beef, Number One Speed Shock Service, Atomic Sign Works and Finish Line Web Design.

Dylan Breen Matches Best Career Finish With Sixth Place Result at Can Am Motorsports Park; DIRTcar Sportsman Series Events Up Next

The 2012 racing season has been filled with adversity for Dylan Breen and his team. Mechanical issues, hard crashes, and a destroyed racecar have limited their racing schedule in 2012.

This past Saturday night, Breen made the trip back to Can Am Motorsports Park. After setting the fourth fastest time in opening practice, he backed that up with a solid third place run in his eight lap qualifying heat and finished sixth in the feature, improving on their 11th place finish the previous week.

The team will now prepare for competition with the ultra-competitive Mr. DIRTcar Sportsman Series as they make the trip along Lake Ontario to the Niagara region with events at Ransomville Speedway in New York on Friday, September 7th, and then back into Ontario for events at Merrittville Speedway on September 8th and Humberstone Speedway on September 9th.

“We are pretty excited about traveling to new tracks here next week”, says Breen. “It is always fun to visit a new race track, and race with the DIRTcar Sportsman series. It will be tough, but it should be a great learning experience for all of us”.
