JJ GRASSO POCKETS $3,600 WITH JACK GUNN MEMORIAL VICTORY SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE SELINSGROVE SPEEDWAY
JJ Grasso of Middletown, DE scored an impressive win Saturday night at the Selinsgrove Speedway, winning the 8th Annual URC/358 Jack Gunn Memorial. The thirty lap feature win earned Grasso $3,600 in a thriller that saw Grasso chase down race leader Pat Cannon in the final five laps. A late race caution brought the field nose to tail for the final three laps. Grasso was closing on Cannon prior to the yellow, but when the green flag fell, Cannon developed motor problems, handing the lead over to Grasso. It was certainly no gift as Grasso was the fastest car on the track in the second half of the race. On the final lap, Grasso lost his brakes and on the cool down lap, developed a right rear flat tire on the Kenny Eldreth owned sprinter. For Grasso, it was his first career win at the Selinsgrove Speedway.
At the start of the 30 lap Jack Gunn Memorial, Jason Shultz led the twenty-six car starting field into turn one. Before exiting turn two, the red flag was displayed for a nine car crash. Chad Trout and Derek Locke sustained the most damage of the cars involved. On the restart, Shultz set the place and led the first lap with Cody Keller taking the top spot on lap two. Keller set the pace until a lap four caution for debris. On the restart, Keller was on top with Pat Cannon now in second. A caution was displayed on lap five, this time for Eric Tomecek.
The field restarted with Keller, Cannon and Mark Smith holding down the top three spots with URC’s JJ Grasso racing in fourth. On lap eight, Jason Shultz popped a tire on the homestretch and as the yellow was displayed, Matt Horst flipped out of the track, exiting over the fourth turn guardrail. Horst was not injured in the crash.
On the restart, Cody Keller remained the race leader with Cannon and Smith still in the chase. JJ Grasso and TJ Stutts made up the top five and were reeling in the leaders. At the halfway point of the race, Keller and Cannon were in a battle for the lead then one lap later, Pat Cannon powered into the top spot. At the same time, Grasso moved into third and was charging
With just five laps to go, Grasso moved past Keller and now had the task of chasing down Cannon. Grasso was definitely closing then on lap twenty-seven, the yellow was displayed for Dave Ely.
The restart was going to be a thriller with just three laps to go and Cannon and Grasso nose to tail. A sudden puff of smoke going into turn one and Cannon was off the pace and Grasso was now in command. Grasso mastered the final laps to take the victory with Cody Keller second, Mark Smith third, TJ Stutts fourth and Aaron Ott fifth. Making up the top ten were Josh Weller, Ryan Kissinger, Colby Womer, Randy West and Jason Shultz.

The sixty-sixth season of the Nation’s oldest traveling sprint car organization, the URC Sprint Series, officially opened on Friday night at the Big Diamond Speedway with defending champion Robbie Stillwaggon taking the lead in the late stages of the event.

Twenty-four cars answered the call for the 25 lap Pioneer Pole Buildings feature event. At the start of the feature, Bryn Gohn established himself as the race leader, holding off a determined Davie Franek with Tim Kelly close in the chase. Franek continued to pressure Gohn for the lead then on lap five, the yellow was displayed for Dave Ely who spun exiting turn two. On the restart, Gohn and Franek continued their battle for the lead and as the leader entered turn one, Kelly took a wild flip, displaying the red flag. Kelly walked away uninjured.
On the restart, Gohn and Franek resumed their battler with JJ Grasso racing in third with Brian Carber (in his first URC start) racing in fourth with Robbie Stillwaggon in fifth by lap six. One lap later, Jonathan Swanson came to a stop displaying the caution flag once again.
Gohn continued to be the front runner with Franek in the chase, then on lap thirteen, Franek powered into the lead position, and at the same time, JJ Grasso moved into second. Following in the top five was Bryn Gohn, Robbie Stillwaggon and Brian Carber.
As the field was completing lap fourteen, Franek was the leader with Grasso trying to close the gap. Grasso, tapped the inside fourth turn tire. After passing the flag stand, Grasso’s car headed to the infield out of control, before hitting another tire and wildly flipping while entering turn one. Grasso walked away uninjured.
On the restart, Franek set the pace followed by Gohn with Stillwaggon now in third. On lap twenty-one, Stillwaggon made a move and powered into second. And now, the two drivers that were battling over the Rislone URC Championship in 2012, are now battling for a win in 2013. On lap twenty-two, Stillwaggon powered by Franek to take the lead and he managed to stay the front runner until the drop of the checker flag.

JERSEY RUSH 2 A BIG SUCCESS. . . . .
DARYN PITTMAN & JIMMY HORTON SHARE VICTORY LANE SPOTLIGHT TUESDAY NIGHT AT NEW EGYPT SPEEDWAY
A big crowd was on hand for the second annual running of the Jersey Rush 2 on Tuesday night at the New Egypt Speedway. With $5,000 on the line, Daryn Pittman of Owasso, MO took the lead with just three laps remaining to score the victory in the 30 lap feature for the 410 sprints. In the 30 lap modified feature, veteran driver Jimmy Horton held off a late race challenge from Ryan Godown to score the victory and collect the $3,000 first place prize. The well groomed New Egypt Speedway provided a track surface that allowed eleven different drivers to break the track record with Daryn Pittman establishing fast time of the night, stopping the clock with a time of 13.734. Pittman collected an additional $100 from CmB Mushrooms for setting time.
In the 30 lap Jersey Rush 2 for the 410 sprints, pole sitter Frank Cozze remained the pace setter with Ryan Smith and Logan Schuchart in the chase. All eyes were on Daryn Pittman who was on his way to the front of the pack. On several occasions, Smith challenged Cozze for the lead, but the former New Egypt Speedway modified champion held on to the top spot.
At the halfway mark, Cozze was still the race leader followed by Ryan Smith, Schuchart, Pittman and Aaron Ott.
On lap seventeen, Cozze, Smith and Pittman were now in a three car battle for the lead. Just one lap later, the yellow was displayed for Ryan Bohlke who stopped in turn two. The restart saw Cozze in control with Smith and Pittman just a car length behind.
Lap twenty-one saw Smith move to the front of the pack with Cozze not looking for a way to regain the lead.
The only red flag of the feature was displayed on lap twenty-seven when Greg Hodnett took a wild flip exiting turn four. Hodnett walked away uninjured.
The turning point of the entire race took place on the restart. At the drop of the green flag, race leader Ryan Smith developed motor problems and fell off the pace. Cozze took the spot for just a short time as Daryn Pittman took the high groove and the lead exiting turn two. Logan Schuchart followed Pittman and took over second with Cozze now in third. For the remaining two laps, Pittman set the pace to score the win with Schuchart second with local favorite Frank Cozze third followed by Mark Smith and Aaron Ott.
Jimmy Horton
The thirty lap modified feature was equally exciting. David Van Horn led the first lap before mechanical problems sidelined him before the completion of lap two. Jimmy Horton took over the lead spot at the time followed by Sam Martz and Sammy Piazza. The restart saw Horton waltz away from the rest of the field as Ryan Godown and Billy Pauch were heading to the front of the pack. Horton, Martz and Piazza held down the top three spots through the halfway point of the race with Godown and Mike Iles making up the top five.
On lap nineteen, Ryan Godown moved into third and set his sights on the front runners. Godown moved into second on lap twenty-six and now had to catch and pass Horton for the win. With just two lap remaining, Godown pulled alongside of Horton but didn’t make the pass. The veteran Horton pulled out all the stops and kept Godown chasing his rear bumper to the checker flag. Horton took the win followed by Ryan Godown, Sam Martz, Sammy Piazza and Billy Pauch.
