"I'm
noticing a turn of the tide on racing Web sites like Florida's
Karnac.com, the gathering place for the most dedicated race
fans in the state." -Orlando Sentinel
The rains stayed away last Saturday Night at Bronson Motor Speedway providing a great night for racing. A good crowd of race fans were on hand, including the Belnap Family Reunion who had folks from all over the United States and even some family from Switzerland! Thanks to the Belnap Family for making Bronson Motor Speedway a part of their festivities!
The awesome action continued in the Limited Sportsman Feature this week with High Spring's Matt Blum in his Reno Plumbing-Shop Gator Mania.Com machine starting in the fifth position and charged his way through the field to take over the lead from Gainesville's William Edwards, who started on the pole and led the first 15 laps of the 30 lap feature. Blum had plenty of competition with Inglis's Mike Baker in the A-1 Automotive 02 machine right on his bumper. The caution was displayed only once as Chiefland's Shelton Bowers got into the 08 of Edwards, and in a great showing of Sportsmanship, Bowers stopped and advised the officials he as at fault, thus giving Edwards his spot back and Bowers sent to the rear of the field. Bowers would then race his way back to finish third, with Mike Baker taking second and Matt Blum once again in Victory Lane.
Dunnellon's Brent Cooper continued his winning ways the Super Stock Feature over Bronson's Tommy Ausburn. Ausburn would lead the first 5 laps before Cooper would power past him for another win.
Thunder Stock action heated up as Inverness's Steve Hise would come up to visit and take home the Victory over Larry Welter, Sr and Howard Brody.
