Firsts And Thirds

By- Jim Rouse, Bubba Raceway Park Media 4-7-12 Scorpion Racing Products Modifieds, Top Gun Sprints, Hobby Stocks, 1-800-ASK GARY Thunderstocks, and Rent-N-Roll Gladiators battled at Bubba Raceway Park with some first timers and returns to familiar places. On lap 1 Brian Jerrels and Mark Maresca made contact and brought the caution out while Howard O’Steen led Mike Stalnaker and Trevor Gamble. On lap 5 Tim Gay passed O’Steen for the lead which he wouldn’t let slip away easy. A few cautions came out in the middle but the final yellow flew on lap 13 when William Edwards found the wall. A 1 lap dash gave O’Steen a chance but Gay held on for another win. O’Steen wound up 2nd, Stalnaker 3rd, Brian Shea finished a strong 4th, and John Clark completed a tough top 5.

After a quick lap 3 caution Mark Whitener made the pass for the lead on Garret Stewart right before Jeff Mathews race ended as his right rear went down and apparently caused more damage than just a tire. After a lap 14 caution for Jason Davis, Tyler Clem, and Larry Mott “The Killer” went after “The Magic Man.” (more…)
