Shelnut Wins Race Number Two of the Goodyear Challenge 12 Pack Series

After three weeks off of racing, it took a while to get the fans parked and settled into the Punta Gorda Speedway that was packed from one end to the other. After qualifying and heat races, the first feature took to the track, it was the Rookie Trucks for fifteen laps. Thirteen year old Chad Chastain from Alva sat on the pole and ran start to finish as the leader but had a hard charging Corey Bigley on his bumper till the end. Bigley usually runs the pro 4 class but got to run the 00 truck of Whitney Poole and really gave Chastain a battle to the end. It was Chastain that got to celebrate in the winners circle with Bigley coming in a hard fought second place and Kyle Case third. (more…)

SpeedWeeks Ends Quickly

By- Jimmy Rouse, Bubba Raceway Park Media

The UNOH All Star Circuit of Champions and the Hobby Stocks battled hard as SpeedWeeks came to a close.

No one could’ve written a better script for the finale. Lap 1 saw Howard O’Steen and Mark Maresca spin out of turn 4 to slow the Hobby Stock feature. Doran Cheney would do the same 5 laps later. The top 3 of Tim Gay, Devin Walker, and Brian Morgan were slowed on lap 17 a total of 3 times. First when John Clark stopped in turn 1. Second for Grady Christian’s spin out of turn 2. The final when Jeff Barrett and John Clark spun out of 4. The lead never changed hands with a feel-good story win for Devin Walker. Gay was 2nd with Morgan, Kevin Durden, and Rodney Wright behind him.

A 30 lap feature saw Kistler Engines Fast Qualifier Dave Gravel start 4th after his 12.894 second lap. On lap 5 the leader, Tim Shaffer, ran into lapped traffic, literally, and bounced off the turn 1 wall ending his night. (more…)

Blaney’s Victory at Bubba Raceway Park is 85th UNOH All Star Win

OCALA, FL (2-24-12)By Brian Liskai Dale Blaney sees every race as an opportunity to learn something. On Thursday at Bubba Raceway Park, The Low Rider had to settle for a second place run on a narrow track. Friday, when given the opportunity once again to start up front, he took the experience from the previous night, and grabbed the early lead and went on to his 85th career victory with the University of Northwestern Ohio All Star Circuit of Champions.

Weve been up front all weekendthe cars been good. Last night I just didnt get the jump on Danny (Lasoski) and the track was narrow and there was nothing I could do after that. Ive been lucky enough to qualify well and put myself in a position to start up front. Qualifying has been the name of the game down here, said Blaney beside his George Fisher owned, Ti22 Performance backed machine. (more…)
