LILLEY TOPS AUBURNDALE TRUCKS BUT SOZIO TAKES CHAMPIONSHIP

By Dave Westerman

Tim Sozio -2010 Auburndale Truck Champion

Several classes crowned their point champions Saturday night at Auburndale Speedway under perfect racing conditions including a pair of youngsters who don’t even have a drivers liscense yet and a driver with so many track titles, he’s lost count.

Tim Sozio and Jim Cowhey, Jr. came into the evening’s Auburndale Truck races separated by just four points and Cowhey trimmed that to just two with a victory in the Truck heat race.

Cowhey immediately began to set the pace in the 25 lap feature but Sozio and Keith Lilley were not far behind right on his tail gate. Brent Tyler, who came into the night’s event third in points suffered engine problems in the heat race and started the feature just to earn last place points before he disappointedly pulled off after a lap was in the books.

Cowhey was determined to stay out front looking for his first win of the year, but Sozio, the DeBary youngster who just turned 15 years old, had other ideas and snared the lead on lap 17 while Cowhey drove a bit too hard into turn one trying to get in line in front of Lilley and looped his mount to bring out the caution.

by BJ Cavin- VSP Media

BARBERVILLE, FL- The 2010 racing season is now part of the history at Volusia Speedway Park as 60 drivers in 6 divisions had their names called on Saturday night in recognition of their exploits on the clay. In addition to crowning champions and awarding trophies, Volusia Speedway Park General Manager Tonya Moschell took time to personally thank many members of her hard working staff who have contributed to the success of the south’s fastest half mile, plus show appreciation to a long list of sponsors and friends of the speedway which made regular Saturday night racing possible in 2010. Dinner was furnished by Dom’s Bar-B-Que, and entertainment came courtesy of several top racers who were “volunteered” for some fun and laughs, mostly at their own expense. (more…)

Volusia Racers Finish Strong in UMP DIRTcar Rankings

by BJ Cavin- VSP Media

BARBERVILLE, FL- As fall weather signals an end to the racing season across the United States the final national and regional rankings for UMP DIRTcar sports some names familiar to Volusia Speedway Park race fans. Volusia racers typically feature prominently in the rankings as the racing season begins quite early in Florida, but as the season progresses and racers from northern regions get more track time under their belts, it becomes progressively more difficult for Florida racers to maintain top positions. But some manage to do just that despite the fact that many northerners are racing three or four times a week, compared to one or two races per week for racers from Florida dirt tracks.

The UMP DIRTcar national rankings for the factory stock division, known as V8 Thunder Stock at VSP, finds Scott Mooers ranked 4th overall, with Chad Scranton holding down the 28th spot with Luke Sadler just behind in 30th place. Regionally their numbers are even better, with Mooers in 3rd place, Scranton in 18th place and Sadler in 19th. Scranton did not get a full season in at VSP in 2010, and were it not for his delayed charge to dominance he probably would have finished much higher. Sadler struggled early in the season and failed to finish a number of races, and yet still managed to all but match Scranton’s final numbers.

Another Volusia racer posting impressive numbers nationally was Casey Feaster, as he wound up ranked 15th in the final UMP DIRTcar sport compact division, known as the 4 Cylinder Challengers at VSP. Feaster’s regional ranking is even more impressive, as he drove his car to a 3rd place finish for 2010. But Feaster had company in the regional rankings as Tony Laporta recovered from a late start and drove to a 13th place finish.

Philip Brown posted an impressive 26th place finish nationally in the UMP Stock Car rankings, better known as the Street Stocks at VSP. The regional rankings were loaded with familiar names in 2010, as Brown posted a 3rd place ranking and Tim Hughes followed in 4th place. Bubba Christian wound up in the 7th spot while Mike Tovet finished 10th, Marc Maresca was 11th, and Trevor Gamble was 12th. Mick Kulak also made the poll with a 20th place showing.

The UMP DIRTcar Sportsman rankings ended with VSP’s Aaron Barsness holding down the 31st spot nationally, and 3rd in the region. Joining Barsness in the regional rankings were Stanton Mills, Shaun Daugharty, Matt Mcgillivray, and Steve Shead, all ranked in the top ten. Paul Shead and Dan Lane appear in the top 20, at 14th and 16th place respectively.

Other Volusia racers made their mark on the UMP regional rankings in the Modified Division, as Jeff Mathews led the way in the 1st place spot. Mathews had plenty of local companionship at the top, as Jamie Carter, Kent Corbin, Kyle Bronson, Wayne Hammond, and Garret Stewart, all held the top six positions in the final rankings. Larry Burkins was 9th, Jamie Smith was 11th, and Larry Mott finished in the 17th spot.

And the UMP DIRTcar Late Model regional rankings find Joe Kump holding the 11th spot, compared to Ivedent Lloyd who finished in 13th place regionally. Donnie Chappell’s season long rise through the rankings at VSP served him well, as he topped out in 15th place on the regional chart, and despite David Clegg’s mid season disaster at Ocala that crushed his shot at a championship run, he still posted a 20th place finish in the region.

So with the 2010 racing season in the books, Volusia Speedway Park will honor these racers and others this Saturday night during the VSP Night of Champions Banquet. The number of racers from Volusia Speedway Park posting impressive numbers both regionally and nationally is some thing to be very proud of according to VSP General Manager, Tonya Moschell, and Volusia’s fans can look forward to yet another season of top quality racing from the south’s fastest half mile in 2011.

Final Truck Race of the Season – Veterans Get in Free Saturday Night at Auburndale Speedway

by Dave Westerman

November 13th will be a lucky evening for Veterans and Active Military personnel as Auburndale Speedway will let all of them in absolutely free this week in honor of Veterans Day to enjoy a big eight division racing program.

The Auburndale Trucks make their final run of the season and will be joined by the Sportsman cars for their final race of 2010. Also on the card are the Legend Cars, Street Stocks, V-8 Bombers, Mini Stocks, Bandoleros and the Kids Club.

The battle to see who will be the 2010 Truck champion comes down to the final race this weekend as young Tim Sozio of DeBary leads Valrico’s Jim Cowhey, Jr. by just four points headed into this week’s action. Brent Tyler is still mathematically in the hunt sitting in third spot just 20 points in back of Cowhey.

Veteran driver Dave Dunkin is close to adding a Sportsman championship to his long list of accomplishments at Auburndale Speedway. Dunkin, who has been racing since the invention of the wheel, holds a 34 point advantage over Mark Medeiros headed into their final race for the class this week. (more…)
