A superb lap from Jack Boyd resulted in sixth for the Johnston Craill Racing Enterprises driver from Jascott Civil/Reynovate Constructions’ Ryan Reynolds, Chris Mercer, Brandon Madden competing for TFH Racing this weekend and leading Rookie Cup contender Caleb Paterson completed the top 10 in the Norganic Proteins entry.
