Action and Drama Highlight Monster Energy Night at VSP

by VSP Media

BARBERVILLE,FL- Race fans had to know up front that they would get plenty of excitement and entertainment when they saw the Daytona Dodge-Chrysler Late Models and Budweiser Modifieds were running on the same Saturday night at Volusia Speedway Park. But they quickly discovered that the Daytona Sportswear Street Stocks, Amsoil Synthetic Lubricants Thunder Stocks, and the 4 Cylinder Challengers, all create their own special brand of excitement as well, as Monster Energy Drink Night cranked up the action at the south’s fastest half mile.

The Budweiser Modifieds saw “Big Mac” Charlie MacNichol fall by the wayside early during heat racing, while Jeff Mathews firmly planted himself in the front row for the feature event, just outside of pole sitter Traver Boettcher. And as soon as the green waved the “Repo Man” shot the 33 car into the lead and remained there despite a valiant effort by Jimmie and Jamie Carter to get past him. Jamie Carter had started in the 7th position and worked his way to second when some late race cautions bunched up the field and gave him a few good shots at Mathews. Carter could get his car alongside of the 33, but Mathews proved a tad too tough to tame. Jeff Mathews scored the win while Jamie Carter was a close second and Jimmie Carter rounded out the top three. Rob Underwood managed to finish in the fourth spot while James Smith got a top 5 finish as well.

Miss VSP 2010 Emily Chaney did the honors of waving the green for the Daytona Sportswear Street Stocks and the second feature race of the night. Billy Medders led the field to the green flag but Mike Tovet seized early control of the race and fought to hold off a three wide challenge on the backstretch. That challenge failed to sort itself out in turns 3 and 4, and the resulting contact brought a caution and sent Pat Buckley to the pits on a hook. Tovet would later develop problems and eventually leave the race as well a few laps later. As Tovet faltered, Trevor Gamble took advantage and grabbed the lead, refusing to relinquish it until he saw the checkers waving. Phillip Brown gave chase, then late in the race had to fend off a hard charging Bubba Christian who suddenly barreled into the top three.

While Trevor Gamble finished first and Bubba Christian crossed the line in third place, drama in the pit area after the race scrambled the top five standings as disqualifications were ordered for conduct issues. Phillip Brown, who had begun the race in the 10th position, was declared the winner, which amounted to a 9 position gain on the night. Tim Hughes moved up two positions to second place as Gamble and Christian were ousted. Billy Medders claimed the third spot followed by David Higgs and Mike Tovet.

Race fans know that when the 21 car of Ivedent Lloyd drives onto the race track that “The Professor” will likely entertain them while he educates everyone else, and as one might expect, the rest of the Daytona Dodge-Chrysler Late Model field was in no mood to sit through class. Lloyd rocketed his car into the lead and began a lesson in domination that lasted for 25 laps, while his teammate, Darrell Padgett schooled the field in passing by gaining 15 positions to finish second behind Ivedent Lloyd.

David Clegg had a respectable night despite Lloyd and Padgett’s attention getting performances. Clegg ignored all of the hoopla, drove his own race, and finished third on the night, followed by Dillon Wood who was racing “incognito” Saturday night behind the wheel of the 7 car. Richard Ferry also got a top five finish after starting on the pole, crossing the line behind Wood.

Shawn “Beavis” Kosier had won three 4 Cylinder Challenger races in a row coming into Saturday night, and once again he would find his way to some hardware and an interview with Joe Dirt, but not for winning the race. Steven Cox managed to get around Kosier on lap 4 and remain there, breaking the win streak for the 97 car at three. And while Cox celebrated in Victory Lane, Kosier was happy as well, satisfied with second place if the win was out of reach. Cox’s 88 machine looked untouchable after it passed Kosier cleanly, then held off every challenge with ease.

RJ Glaser grabbed the third spot after harassing Kosier for the second spot for most of the race, while Gilbert Espy finished in the fourth spot. And the big mover and shaker of the night was Casey Feaster, who earned a DQ for his heat race when he was busted for speeding in the pit area, and had to start the feature race on the tail. Feaster worked his way forward 14 positions for the fifth place finish, while Robert Graham gained 12 spots in an 8th place effort.

The Amsoil Synthetic Lubricants Thunder Stocks have created their own brand of drama the last few outings both on and off of the race track, and Saturday night was no different. The result of it all was a highly competitive race where the top positions were almost always in dispute, plus enough beating and banging action that the competition clock expired before the scheduled 20 laps were completed.

Jumpin’ Jim Shaw battled for the early lead with Jim Goempel and Chad Scranton until a tangle in turn 3 sent Goempel to the pits. Meanwhile Matt Schell and David Whitt were on the move, muscling their way through traffic to enter the fray up front and contend with Shaw for the win. Whitt assumed the lead and held it despite the best efforts of Matt Schell, and Jim Shaw overcame a lap 6 tangle to return to the top three. Other racers were making moves further back in the pack as well, as AJ McKay climbed from the last starting position to 13th, and John Thorpe gained 7 spots to 9th.

David Whitt proved to be a little too much for Matt Schell, grabbing a victory while Schell settled for second place. Jumpin’ Jim Shaw was the third place finisher, while Scott Mooers claimed the fourth spot and Chad Scranton placed fifth.

Saturday, April 17th brings Fastline 5 racing to Volusia Speedway Park as the Daytona Dodge-Chrysler Late models, Taylor Racing Products Sportsman, Daytona Sportswear Street Stocks, Amsoil Synthetic Lubricants Thunder Stocks, and 4 Cylinder Challengers, battle on the south’s fastest half mile. Racing begins at 7:30PM and fans can access www.VolusiaSpeedwayPark.net for additional information.

Prather Prevails for East Bay Win

By: Larry Jewett

4/10/2010

“This one is for my dad,” were the words of Limited Late Model racer J.R. Prather Jr., who returned to Victory Lane for the first time since his father, a long time supporter of East Bay, passed away a little more than a year ago. “I tried so hard last year and this is a new year. I was thinking of dad when I crossed the line.”

Prather’s win came from the outside pole of the 15-lap main. “When you’re in the position, you have to seal the deal,” he said. Prather grabbed the lead from the start to back up his heat race. Alex Boerner was thrilling the crowd with his outside runs that moved him into second place by lap 9. Boerner put the pressure on, but Prather was focused on hitting his marks. Boerner kept second as Forrest Gough rallied from an earlier spin for third. William Hampton and Daniel Woody rounded out the top five. Phillip Cobb joined Prather as a heat race winner.

Matthew Haynes became a double winner in the Outlaw 4 class, backing up his win from two weeks ago. Haynes went wire-to-wire in a caution-free affair. Brian Danforth, Billy Howard, 2009 division champion Stephen Hohlbaugh and Charlie Staats completed the top five. Chris Zimmerman and Howard were heat winners.

Roger Crouse made an outside pass on race leader Buzzie Reutimann and parlayed it to his second straight Gagel’s Auto Parts Open Wheel Modified victory. “He has a lot of experience here,” said Crouse of Reutimann. “I tried the outside and it was faster. I can’t believe I passed Buzzie Reutimann outside.” No one else passed Reutimann as he took second, ahead of John Bradley, Bobby Dixon and Austin Sanders, who started 12^th in the main. Reutimann and Dixon took preliminary wins.

Former asphalt racer Jeff Rodgers has taken a liking to dirt track racing. Despite starting in the back, Rodgers slipped past race leader Garry Sheffield on the eighth lap and held on to claim his first-ever dirt win in the Street Stock class. Clarence Pratt made a last lap pass on Buck Woodhouse to finish second. Fourth went to Sheffield and former feature winner Thomas Pratt claimed fifth.

Defending champion Jim Baker vaulted from the pole to claim a feature win in the motorstats.com 4 Cylinder Bombers. Elliott Morgan added another top five to his resume with a steady second place. John Detamore rallied back to take third, ahead of Jimmy Williams and Patrick Tabb. Roberto Morfin Jr. saw a top five taken away when he refused an engine claim. Baker, Morfin Jr. and Detamore won the heats.

Collin Kruse topped the 10-car field in the Dirt Dauber finale, despite a spin on lap 10.

ASA sanctioned racing returns to East Bay Raceway Park on Saturday, April 17, 2010. The Racecar Engineering Late Models, East Bay Sprints, Gagel’s Auto Parts Open Wheel Modifieds, Outlaw 4s and motorstats.com 4 Cylinder Bombers are in action. A special driver’s autograph session for Late Model and Sprint drivers will be conducted at intermission. For more information go to www.eastbayracewaypark.com or call the track office.

Top Gun Sprints Challenge Ocala

by Ocala Speedway Media

All Photos Courtesy of rewingphotos.com

OCALA, FL- A cool and dry night greeted the fans and racers who spent their Friday evening at Ocala Speedway, and as usual the toughest 3/8ths mile in the southeast maintained that rugged reputation. The Top Gun Sprint Car Series was in town to challenge the old race track along with three other regular racing divisions, and before the highlight event was over the crowd was literally on its feet.

Tim George led 17 of the 19 Top Gun Sprints in attendance to the green flag, but a couple of misfires in the form of spins from contact forced restarts, plus sent Ryan Partin to the rear of the field. The third time was the charm for 16 year old Amanda Ferguson, who blew past Tim George on the opening lap and opened up a huge lead by lap 4.

Things got a bit hairy on lap five as a sideways car on the front stretch collected another, and the 02 of Gene Lasker ended up flipping right in front of the grandstands and causing a red flag to be displayed. Lasker leapt from his car in dramatic fashion, demonstrating that he was alright, but the remains of his sprint car was dragged to the pit area on a hook.

After the restart Amanda Ferguson again took control of the race and never looked back, although the ending came a bit later than had been expected. The 22 of Shawn Murray, which had been flirting with the front stretch wall all night long at times, finally smacked that wall hard enough to send him spinning down the front stretch and coming to rest almost directly under the flag stand as Ferguson was coming out of the final turn. That forced a green-white-checker situation, but Amanda Ferguson was up to the challenge, going 26 laps to get the win.

It was Amanda Ferguson’s first win on clay as her only other victory came at Charlotte County Motorsports Park in Punta Gorda, running wingless on asphalt. Danny Martin chased after Ferguson all night but settled for second place, Danny Martin took third place honors, and Darrin Miller placed fourth. And after being relegated to the rear of the field at the start, Ryan Partin battled back to finish in the fifth position.

It did not pay to be in front while Ocala’s Mini Stock Division was racing on Friday night. Buddy Pope was on the pole and had the lead for a moment, before problems slowed his car and passed the lead to Blake Spencer after a brief caution. Spencer looked to be in complete control but Keith Briggs was lurking just behind him and was in no mood to follow, wrestling the lead away on lap 8 as Johnny Zackery slipped into the third spot. Spencer fell to second, then spun on lap 12 moving Zackery up behind Briggs.

Most fans probably thought that would be the end of it, but Keith Briggs slid sideways at the top of turn 4 and limped into the pit area, leaving Zackery as the race leader. But the race was not over yet, and Zackery fell victim to a flat tire as the caution flew for Blake Spencer’s motor expiring on lap 13. Zackery would make the quick change in the pits and return to the rear of the field with six laps remaining, but Paul Combast was now in front and looked to remain there.

Paul Combast held on and avoided the lead car curse to win the race, followed by Nick Kerr in the second spot. Johnny Zackery battled back to third place, followed by Dan Kerr and Michael Oglesby for fourth and fifth.

The Tee Pee Tire Hobby Stocks took the green with Brian Jerrels on the pole, but Dean Jarvis wound up the early leader and looked tough in the opening laps. But Daniel Miller had the 99 machine hooked up and ready, and began a multi lap tussle for the lead on lap 4 with Jarvis that lasted for four laps. Miller grabbed the lead for good at that point and left the others to fight over second place.

Heath Walker did just that, slipping under Jarvis in an attempt to grab second from him. But contact between the two would cause Jarvis to spin and sent Walker to the pits with a flat tire, as Joe Boyd now assumed the second spot. Daniel Miller scored a convincing victory as Joe Boyd pursued him for second place. Dean Jarvis settled for third while Heath Walker finished fourth, and Sean Babcock stayed out of the fray and grabbed a fifth place finish.

Fans have come to recognize the Amsoil V8 Thunder Stocks as the most competitive division at Ocala Speedway, as a host of talented racers are almost always in contention for a win. The only problem is that at the same time, the Thunder Stocks also are known for muscling their way around the track, so contenders are sometimes fighting for survival as much as for a win.

Jerrid Bennett had the pole and the early lead, but lost it on lap 4 as Mike Stalnaker made the pass on the backstretch. Bennett slipped out of the top five as James Erickson, Jason Gamble, and Chris Fontaine, all made their way in. Jason Gamble would later spin on lap 8, but recover to climb back into the front pack yet again by lap 12.

Mike Stalnaker had the car to beat on the night, and no one else had an answer for it as he cruised to a victory yet again. James Erickson drove an aggressive race to place second while Chris Fontaine grabbed the third spot. Jerrid Bennett salvaged a fourth place finish while Jason Gamble overcame his troubles to round out the top five.

Colortyme Rent-To-Own Night comes to Ocala Speedway on Friday, April 16th, featuring the 2010 debut of the Colortyme Open Wheel Modified Division in their $1500 to win Spring Fling. Ocala’s Sportsman Division will also debut, and fans will see action from the Tee Pee Tire Hobby stocks and the Gladiators as well. Fans can also enter the $5 raffle for a Colortyme big screen TV to be given away. Grandstand gates will open at 5PM with racing at 8PM, and for pricing and more info please visit www.OcalaSpeedway.com.

Stephen Darvalics Wins the Desoto ProTruck Feature Race at ASA Sanction Desoto Super Speedway with a True Talladega Finish

April 3 2010

By Tom Blakeley

It was a beautiful night for racing and the fans got lots of action as the temperatures rise so does the action. The 25 lap Truck feature race was amazing. The first yellow did not fly until lap 19 when Brent Huber spun out. From that point on it was like a different race. On lap 23 the second yellow flag flew as Andrew Gipson hit the wall on the backstretch. The final lap proved to be something to remember.

Going into turn 4 the 48 truck of Bill Manfull pushed the 37 truck of young Nick Hernandez and sent him sideways, the trucks continued on towards the checkered flag and they again got into each other and crossed the finish line spinning and bouncing off the wall. The fans went wild and the drivers made special hands signs to each other, but it was one great race. The Truck results are as follows: (more…)

LILLEY FLAG TO FLAG IN TRUCKS – DQ’S ABOUND AGAIN AT AUBURNDALE SPEEDWAY

by Dave Westerman

Keith Lilley made the best of a borrowed ride and the tech shed was once again a busy place as Auburndale Speedway celebrated the Easter weekend with loads of action and fun.

The Auburndale Truck Series made its season debut and Keith Lilley made the most of a ride he picked up for the weekend by dominating both the heat and feature races. Lilley, who said his machine was “handling perfectly” jumped to the early lead and never looked back in posting the win.

Lance Daubach did a great job in finishing second trailed by Tim Sozio. Roger Blevins was fourth and J.R. Garcia took fifth.

The Sportsman class saw Dave Dunkin looking for his third straight win. Dunkin took the heat win and was leading the 25 lap main event when the rear end gears broke on his “Blue Goose” and he headed to the pits while the only caution of the race was displayed to check for fluid on the track.

Jason Stifle took over at that point and set the pace the remainder of the distance with Mark Medeiros well behind in second after a race-long battle with Aaron Williamson.

Unfortunately both the cars of apparent winner Stifle and Williamson did not pass tech inspection awarding the win to Medeiros. Austin Carr, whose team replaced the rear gears of his car after they broke in hot laps, came home with a second place finish followed by Bobby Mobley, Kyle Alford and Brandon Duscherer.

Fred Harrison, Jr. jumped out to an early lead and claimed his third Mini Stock feature win of the year taking the point lead in the process. Aaron Williamson took second spot and was able to pass tech in this car. Heat winner Chris Spring, Chris Narramore, Sr. and Donnie Guy rounded out the top five.

Flagman Julian Mullis needed painkillers for a sore arm after waving the caution flag numerous times during a wild Street Stock feature.

Dave Colpritt led the whole way and was certainly in the right place to be as the cars behind him were at it tooth and nail the entire distance. Twelve cars started the race but just five were left as the checkered flag fell.

Point leader Matt McCrary had the hardest hit as something broke on his machine and he pounded the turn two wall before bouncing back across the track and collecting the car of Austin Jenkins. Both drivers walked away unhurt.

Bobby Mobley trailed Colpritt to the checker as “Big Dave” scored his second win of the year. Jeff Waterman came back from an early race incident to get third with Ken Lawrence fourth and Chuck Harrison, Jr. fifth as the only ones still left on the track.

Heat wins were taken by Colpritt and Jeff Waterman.

There was plenty to discuss in the pits after the Legend Car feature. Jake Perkins appeared to be on his way to a fourth consecutive win. But going into turn three, defending champion Justin Brown drove in hard and punted Perkins into the high groove. Brown made the pass and crossed the stripe for the win.

After much “discussion” the win stood with Perkins claiming second in front of Gerald White, Jr., Mason Ketterman and Dave Gleason. Heat race wins were taken by Perkins and White.

After having a pair of victories snatched from him already this year in tech, Chris Narramore, Jr. easily claimed the V-8 Bomber win and finally passed tech under the watchful eye of the inspectors. Brandon Duscherer was a distant second at the finish trailed by heat winner James Wright II, Josh Borem and Andy Harvard.

The Scrambler feature also saw the apparent winner set down in tech. Gene Harrison drove his Volkswagen by early leader Chad Cutting on lap eight and ran off to the apparent win. However, Harrison refused a tear-down and the win ended up going to Cutting.

Cutting, who is the grandson of the legendary “Tampa Terror” Will Cagle, scored his first win of the year over point leader Kim Gullett, Brian Tyre, Richard Brown and Jeremy Watts.

It was yet another Dwarf Car win for Jonathan Guy as he claimed the victory after a hard-fought battle with Sonny O’Sullivan. Donny Bass was third ahead of his dad Johnny Bass and Zane Davis.

After leader Ryan Shattuck spun out of the lead, Ryan Sobel took over the point and led the rest of the way to claim his first-ever Bandolero feature win. Shattuck drove back to get second but ran out of time before he could catch Sobel. Cameron White was third ahead of Andy Metz and Noah “Lil’ Gater”

Cornman. Shattuck won the heat.

The Kids Club feature race was a first-ever win for young Heather Guy as she topped Dakota Hunt and Brandon Guy. Heather also won the heat race.

Next week the School Bus Figure 8s return along with Street Stocks, Modified Mini Stocks, Legends, Bandeleros, Mini Stocks, V-8 Bombers and Scramblers.

Racing begins at 7 PM. For more information call 863-551-1131 or log on to www.auburndaleracing.com.
