Shelnut Knows How to Get it Done with Four in a Row

With a full night of racing on tap at the Punta Gorda Speedway and fun things for the kids, the fans and kids were not disappointed. Right before the features started was the parade lap, speedway owner Kevin Williams had a special guest he drove around the track, Mr and Mrs Claus.

While Jr Fan Club leader Jessica had the kids club all making their own Christmas Ornaments to take home and hang on their trees.

The night started off with the Cowboy Cadillacs that always put on a good show and tonight was no different. While Jeff Deeble of Port Charlotte jumped to the early lead and never looked back to take the win. With no cautions it was hard for Mike Bialecki to catch Deeble as he gave it his all and finished second. Coming home in the third spot was Mike True.

The Legend cars came out for their feature and while Mike Endee of North Port led the first four laps,

it was Mike Verhaagh that got by him and never looked back. Mike Verhaagh was the winner with Tony Steinbuck second and Carl Haag third. (more…)

December 8, 2012 – Tampa, FL – It was a night 3 new Champions were to be crowned for the 2012 Season, but halfway through the features, Mother Nature put a halt to the night.
