BILL THOMAS TAKES THE CHECKERED FLAG AT BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY
Swedesboro, NJ (April 28, 2012) – On Bridgeport Speedway’s quarter mile track, Bill Thomas took the checkered flag in the 600cc Micro-Sprint feature. Top honors in the 270cc Micro-Sprint main event went to Justin Stillwagon. Warren Stradley won the 4-Cylinder Enduro Car contest.
After two cautions, the start of the 20-lap 600cc Micro-Sprint feature finally got underway with Lee Nardelli taking the lead. Mike Rutherford moved into the runner up position on the second tour with Bill Thomas taking third on lap 3. After a good tussle for the top spot, Rutherford became the new man on top of the pack on the fourth circuit. A few laps later, Nardelli and Thomas became engaged in a battle for second with Thomas winning the spot on lap 8. On the tenth revolution, Rutherford had Thomas locked onto his bumper with slower cars just ahead. While in heavy lap traffic on lap 13, Thomas ducked beneath a slower competitor while Rutherford went high and Thomas slipped into the lead. Thomas continued to knife his way by slower cars until the final caution period of the race occurred on lap 17.
Taking advantage of a clear track following the restart, Thomas began to pull away from his rivals in the final circuits to claim his seventh career win at Bridgeport Speedway. Second place went to Rutherford. Jeff Hartman wound up in third with Nardelli taking fourth. Shane Lewis finished in fifth. The heat races in the 600cc Micro-Sprint ranks went to Bill Thomas, Stephen Kemery and Tim Iulg.
Jay Hartman bested the field in the consolation race.
Justin Stillwagon
After taking the lead from Joe Dopke on lap 2, Justin Stillwagon set the pace for the remaining distance to win the 20-lap main event for the 270cc Micro-Sprints. Charlie Lamanna took second. John Blanda, Richie Keller and Dopke completed the top five. Lee Nardelli and Justin Stillwagon picked up wins in the 270cc Micro-Sprint qualifying contests.
Warren Stradley
In the 20-lap race for the 4-Cylinder Enduro Cars, Warren Stradley grabbed the top spot from Scott Dunn on the white flag lap as he won his third race of the season. Second place went to Scott Dunn.
Rounding out the top five finishers was Justin Dunn, Robbie Dunn, and Mike Dunn.

410 SPRINT CARS COMING TO BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY!
Heffner Racing Co-Promotes Night of Wings Show June 19
Swedesboro, NJ (April 27, 2012) – Bridgeport Speedway is thrilled to announce that 410 sprint cars will return to the raceway on Tuesday, June 19, for the Night of Wings show featuring a 25 lap race worth $7,000 to the winner (after posting a $100 gambler fee or $5,000 if the winning driver chooses not to participate in the gambler fee.) “Take the Green” money for this very special race will be a cool $500.
New track promoters Doug and Gena Hoffman are pleased to welcome Mike Heffner, owner of the Lelands.com-sponsored Heffner Racing Enterprises team, (piloted by 410 sprint car driver Daryn Pittman) as co-promoter of the race.
“We have heard many positive reviews of Bridgeport Speedway under the Hoffman promotional team and I am excited to be a part of the return of 410 Sprint Cars to Southern New Jersey,” commented Heffner.
A unique format is being planned for this event. Upon entry to the grounds, drivers will draw a pill to determine their heat race groups. Each grouping will go out for time trials and an inversion of the top four (4) will set the starting lineup of each respective heat race. Drivers not in the top four (4) of their groups will be lined up in the qualifying events by time. The first two (2) finishers in each heat race are eligible for the feature redraw and the fastest qualifier in each grouping will be added as well providing the driver finishes the heat race in a qualifying position. All other heat race qualifiers will be assigned a starting position in the main event by time.
The top two finishers from each heat race will receive entry into the Foot Dash for Cash, with the victor of this running race getting more than $1,000 in cash and contingency prizes. A multitude of contingency awards is also planned, including a fast time award of at least $200 from Jakes Carts. To complete the show, the TSRS Sprint Cars will be on the card with Sprint Cars from PASS and CRSA invited as well. Plus, $.50 Chicken Wings will be served from the concession area on this special night.
Pit gates open at 4:00 p.m. the day of the race, with grandstand turnstiles unlocking at 5:00 p.m. A pre-race fan fest is scheduled to start at 5:30 p.m. Hot laps get underway at 7:00 p.m. with racing scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. An entry fee of $100 per car will include three pit passes for this event. Additional pit admissions are set at $35 per person. Adult grandstand admission is $25 for advanced purchase and $30 on the day of the show. Further information on advanced ticket sales is forthcoming. A rain date of Wednesday, June 20 has been established for this event.

As the checkered flag waved, it was Luke Thomas in front for his third career win at Bridgeport Speedway. Second place was taken by Bill Thomas. Third went to Hartman.
