Joey Doiron Posts Impressive Third Runner Up Finish At Chaudiere

1000-DSC_8443Vallee-Jonction, Quebec – Joey Doiron and the #73 Wild Willy’s Burthers race team traveled north of the international border this past weekend to one of Doiron’s favorite tracks, the tight ¼ mile bullring Autodrome Chaudiere for the Pro All Stars Series North “Frameco 150.” After overcoming many adversities, Doiron finished the night with the runner up trophy.
