Story By: MICHELINA FRISS / DIRTCAR – CONCORD, NC – With over twenty years of racing under his belt, Gatineau, QC driver Bruno Richard will be retiring from racing after this season with much to be proud of.
Four feature wins, a track championship, the DIRTcar Rookie of the Year title, and two Series titles, all of which were accomplished in three seasons of competing in the DIRTcar Pro Stock Series.
By starting the Pro Stock 50 during the 50th Running of NAPA Super DIRT Week at Oswego Speedway, Richard clinched the 2022 DIRTcar Pro Stock Series title – 62 points ahead of Luke Horning and 69 points ahead of third-place Justin White.
Richard also finished fifth in the prestigious race.
“It feels so great because it was my dream,” Richard said. “We do it this year. We start in April and go day by day. We win everywhere we go. We had a bit of a hard finish the last month. But the car, like I say, is still in one piece, because we are a really small team. So great to get it. It was one of my dreams.”
Richard ended the season for the Series with one win, a Series-high six top fives and seven top 10s.
