The times were immediately faster than yesterday's practice times, as the pros stepped up and flexed their muscles. Dillon Stephens had only a few practice runs yesterday and showed no sign of the dominance he displayed today as he blitzed the field with a couple of early runs.
In a surprise to everybody, including himself, Shawn Prier of Toronto came out of nowhere to post the second fastest time, almost a half a second behind Stephens.
In Street Luge, Mikel Diez was a class above the competition, almost five seconds faster than second-placed David Dean. But on this short, narrow track, with limited overtaking opportunities, the push start will be crucial in determining the winner.
The dry morning progressed into a wet afternoon and a wet semi-final and final Junior Race. Killington Junior winner Alex Charleson was narrowly beaten by Matt King of Toronto in an all-Canadian final.
