This 4th round of the 2011 ADRA champions salutes, will highlight our Street class champ,Richard Leger. I can remember watching Richard racing at Raceway Park in the mid-eighties, and I'm pretty sure it was a white Trans-Am. He's still at the racing game, still racing with the Pontiac name-plates, and still collecting championships. I don't have the complete stats but in the last three years he was the champ twice, and once in the runner-up spot. This guy very quietly gets the job done and it's never easy to send him to the sidelines. Once again, a great job by Richard.

I know Richard is to humble of a guy, so I thought I would post some of his stats without asking him  . I only knew of a few, so I checked with another one of his other competitor/friend, and here is what we came up with: 1st place in Miramichi Pro Points in 2000 1st place in Miramichi Sportsmam Points in 2001 1st place (tied) in ADRA Street Points in 2002 2nd place in Miramichi Sportsmans Points in 2005 1st place (tied) in Mimamichi Sportmans Points in 2007 3rd place in Miramichi Sportmans Points in 2008 2nd place in Miramichi Sportmans Points in 2009 1st place in ADRA Street Points in 2009 2nd place in ADRA Street Points in 2010 1st place in PEI Street Points in 2010 1st place in Miramichi Sportsmams Points in 2011 1st place in ADRA Street Points in 2011 And I am probably missing a few from earlier year. Drag racing sure needs more Richards. If some people would have 1/4, or even 1/8 the dedication (sorry, I had to touch the topic of the week  to drag racing he has, there would be bigger turn out at tracks. Congratulation Richard! |

Thanks so much for that post TRUEBLUE. You're so right about Richard too. Doesn't say much but he smiles alot when he's picking up the cheques.
I found my 1985-86 PEI video again today, and Richard Leger is on it with the white Trans Am too... but I just wish I could find an easy way to convert those DVD files into mp3's. Then I could upload some of the the kewlest footage to You Tube.
