JR Garcia Dominates Pro Truck Race at Bronson Speedway

RobertKorsonBronson Speedway, May 10, 2014: Bronson Speedway’s track announcer said it best, “race fans, get ready to see the state’s best Pro Truck drivers…” OK, so not all were there, but four of the state’s best Pro Truck drivers in JR Garcia, Mica Williams, Jessica Murphy and Steven King where there to show their support for the Series and Bronson’s local oval race track.  The Pro Truck Series considers Bronson’s three-eighths-mile, high-bank asphalt oval track to be a hidden gem, and it is apparent that this small town race track is making every effort to support their drivers and traveling series.  Many of Saturday night’s drivers share the same opinion in that the track is fun to race on and more drivers should make the trip to show their support.  Although the Pro Truck count was less than expected, the track and Series still delivered on the guaranteed payout while giving the teams a break on the number of race laps.

REYNOLDS AND SYMONS POST %0-LAP VICTORIES AT NEW SMYRNA SPEEDWAY

Justin Reynolds topped the 50-lap Super Stock race (Kim Jones Photo)It was Fan Appreciation Night at New Smyrna Speedway Saturday and a nice crowd was treated to some great racing plus a large number of kids and their parents took part in a fun “Tire Race” at intermission that produced two of the worst “crashes” of the night.  All the kids were OK (especially after an ice cream treat) and got a chance to head home with a real race car tire in their possession.

Both the Super Stock and Open-Competition Modifieds ran 50-lap events while the Mini Stocks hit the track for a 25-lap feature.  The Super Stock drivers came out in force with 23 cars signing in although Warren Schurr’s Ford Torino broke in warm-ups and he was unable to start the big race.  Garrett Hill of Orlando established himself as the early favorite by blistering the track in qualifying with a lap of 20.753 seconds easily outdistancing the second-fast qualifier, Merritt Island’s Justin Reynolds who turned a lap at 21.170 seconds.  Hill pulled a five pill placing him fifth on the starting grid while it would be David Gould and Danny Frye on the front row for the start. Gould led the opening lap only to see the caution flag quickly out for Michael Bedient who spun in turn four.  Frye snared the lead on the restart and was out front when Michael Held bit off a chunk of the turn four wall to bring out the yellow on lap seven.  On the restart a multi-car melee took place in turn one involving the cars of Brandon Christian, Charles King, Butch Herdegen, Bedient and Joe Gerard.  Both Christian and Bedient were done for the night while all others continued with just “cosmetic” damage.  Frye set the pace for a few laps after the restart but Reynolds was on the charge in his “Mellow Yellow” Chevrolet and he took the lead, proceeding to draw away from the field, lapping cars well into the top ten before a caution flag appeared with five laps to go as Joe Bandur spun on the front stretch.  Hill was now up to second and everyone though Reynolds would now get a real challenge but is was not to be as he pulled away easily from Hill to claim a big victory made even sweeter because his grandfather was in attendance from Niagra Falls, NY to watch him race.

Gresham Motorsports Park Pro Late Model 100 To Honor Larry Fleeman

SGMP LogoJEFFERSON, GA (April 28, 2014) – Longtime Georgia racing and Gresham Motorsports Park supporter Larry Fleeman will be honored as the title partner of Saturday’s Pro Late Model 100 event at GMP.  The ‘Larry Fleeman Memorial 100’ marks the third year Fleeman will be on the marquee for a premiere event at GMP. In 2012 and 2013, GMP honored Fleeman – who passed away on May 2, 2012.
“Larry Fleeman was one of the best friends Georgia auto racing ever had and he was particularly generous in his continual efforts to support Gresham Motorsports Park,” said GMP general manager John Close. “Larry also happened to be one of the finest gentlemen anyone could ever meet and while it is unfortunate that he is no longer with us, it’s very satisfying to be able to continue to remember Larry and celebrate his life and contributions to our sport through this memorial event.”
The Larry Fleeman Memorial 100 will mark the first time a Pro Late Model event will be nationally telecast from Gresham Motorsports Park. One of the most exciting pavement divisions in the country, the one-hour taped delayed program of the Larry Fleeman Memorial 100 will be syndicated into more than 100 million households across the United States and Puerto Rico when it airs in mid-May.
