BUFFALINO AND STANGLE OUTDUEL COMPETITION TO GAIN VICTORIES AT NEW EGYPT SPEEDWAY’S GARDEN STATE GUNFIGHT
New Egypt, NJ (June 28, 2017) – At New Egypt Speedway’s Garden State Gunfight, Dominick Buffalino fought off his rivals to win the 60-lap Modified feature while Matt Stangle bested the field in the 25-lap Sportsman event.
As the Modified feature got underway, Wade Hendrickson grabbed the lead with Steve Davis and Ryan Godown next in line. Godown would advance into the runner-up spot with six circuits completed. With ten laps recorded, Godown was cutting into Hendrickson’s margin with Davis in third and Anthony Perrego in fourth. Godown pulled even with Hendrickson on the twelfth lap and took over the lead one tour later. As the green flag circuits clicked away, Godown began to approach the tail end of the field on the eighteenth lap with Perrego in second. With the top two runners in the midst of lapping cars, Billy Pauch, Jr. and Dominick Buffalino were making moves to gain third and fourth place respectively by the twenty-first revolution. As Perrego was closing in on Godown, the first caution of the event took place as Rick Laubach collided hard with the outside wall in turn one and collected Brett Kressley in the incident. On the ensuing restart, Godown maintained his edge with Buffalino jumping into second, Pauch, Jr. staying in third and Perrego dropping back into fourth. The high line running Buffalino began to challenge Godown for the top spot when PJ Oliver’s ride slowed on lap twenty-eight. When green flag racing resumed, Godown and Buffalino dueled for two tours with Buffalino switching to the inside lane to take command of the contest just before the caution flag waved for the mid-race fuel stop. At the halfway point, the top five runners were Buffalino, Godown, Perrego, Pauch, Jr. and Davis. After the brief break, action returned with Buffalino still on top but Pauch, Jr. taking over second. Pauch, Jr., who started the event in fourteenth, catapulted to the front on the thirty-third lap following a caution period for Ryan Krachun. Once on top, Pauch, Jr. began to distance himself from his foes with Buffalino and Godown dicing for second with twenty laps remaining in the contest. Five tours later, Buffalino was slowly carving into the comfortable margin that Pauch, Jr. had established. By the forty-sixth lap, the top two began to enter lap traffic. Over the next several revolutions, Buffalino began to slice into the leader’s advantage. With only four tours left, Buffalino had reeled in Pauch, Jr. and was ready to contend for the lead. On lap fifty-seven, Buffalino motored by Pauch, Jr. to assume the front running spot. Buffalino paced the field for the final circuits to claim the $6,000 first place prize. Pauch, Jr. came home in second with Godown claiming third. Duane Howard drove up from his twelfth place start to finish in fourth. Perrego’s strong run netted him fifth. The Modified heat winners were Danny Bouc, Rick Laubach, Ryan Godown and Dominick Buffalino. Frank Cozze and Jeff Strunk were victorious in the consolation races.
In the 25-lap Sportsman event, Matt Stangle gained the lead on the sixteenth lap and remained on top to collect the victory. Steve Davis led the opening fifteen tours before Stangle assumed the advantage following a restart. Second place was taken by Mike Lyons. Involved in a caution on the eighth circuit, JR Fulper came from the back of the pack to finish in third place. Jim Housworth, who started the race in eighteenth, was fourth with Jason Dunn taking fifth. Mike Lyons, Steve Davis, Jason Bittner and Jason Dunn won the Sportsman qualifying races. The consolation contests were taken by Tommy Tanner and Jim Housworth.

Tim McCreadie Steals the Spotlight at the Big Show
Watertown, NY Driver Takes the Lead From Larry Wight With 23 Laps to go
MALTA, NY - June 27, 2017 - Larry Wight took the lead from Stewart Friesen on a lap 74 restart, but Tim McCreadie pounded the cushion to go from fourth to the lead on lap 77. McCreadie then led the final 23 laps of Brett Hearn's Big Show 9 to claim the $10,000 winner's share at Albany-Saratoga on Tuesday night. It was McCreadie's first win since he won at The Dirt Track at Charlotte in November 2011.
Friesen took second and Matt Sheppard took third from Larry Wight when he jumped the cushion late in the race and had to settle for fourth. Hearn rounded out the top-five.
"I've been trying to run this race for a while and take some of Brett's money," McCreadie said, tongue-in-cheek following his first Super DIRTcar Series win since 2011. "He always makes more than us and it's nice to take $10,000 from him once and a while."
Wight started on the front row with Max McLaughlin for the 100-lap Feature. Wight drove his No.99L to the point position at the drop of the green flag while Stewart Friesen raced into second from the third starting spot.
McCreadie was quickly on the move from his sixth starting spot and used the same outside lane to take second from Friesen at lap 17. Twenty laps in, Wight found his way into heavy lapped traffic as the race stayed green. At lap 22, Friesen took second back from McCreadie while Wight was able to race freely through the traffic.
Friesen caught the leader on lap 42 and passed Wight to take over the lead on lap 46. Friesen held the point just as the first caution of the race waved at lap 50 when Rich Scagliotta got turned around in turn two.
When the race restarted on lap 59, Friesen held off Wight's charge while Sheppard took third from McCreadie. The top-five maintained their spots, with Hearn in fifth, until the second and final caution at lap 68.
The final restart with 74 laps complete produced all the action at Wight retook the lead from Friesen in the outside lane while McCreadie made his move from fourth to second before taking the lead three laps later.
"I couldn't really hit the bottom at all and when we had cold tires we could roll the middle pretty well," Wight said. "It seemed to be that if we got too much heat in the right-rear, the car went away on us. I don't know if it was me being too hard on it or if we just need to do a little more work on the car itself to get it to run with that hot tires."
Before Wight could worry about getting too much heat in the right-rear tire, McCreadie used the outside lane to drive to the lead.
"I just got lucky," McCreadie said in Victory Lane. "Those guys were hunting the bottom and I had been up there banging the cushion for probably 70 laps and I just figured the only shot I had was to try and go in above it into (turn) one and it happened to stick. It could have easily went the other way, but we're happy tonight."
With eight laps to go, Wight jumped the cushion while running second and fell to fourth as both Friesen and Sheppard raced past him. Friesen caught McCreadie over the final five laps, but couldn't get close enough to regain the top spot for the win.
"Our Halmar car was good on the long run, which is cool," Friesen said. "It's something we haven't really had all year. Second to a guy like that, I mean there aren't too many guys that can run a curb like that and put it where he needed. We'll take a good second. We had a great long run car and it was good. I'm proud of everybody."
"I didn't know how many laps were left, but I saw him poke (the nose) once or twice," McCreadie said of Friesen's late challenge. "It was really kind of dusty once you caught lapped traffic. It wasn't that you couldn't maneuver, I just couldn't really see through the center of the corner to put my right-rear on the cushion so it slowed my entry down and my whole corner down."
Sheppard held on for a third-place finish, his third straight top-five finish and fifth consecutive top-five result to start the season.
"We had a really good car there in the middle of the race," Sheppard said. "We really didn't need that lap 68 caution. I was just rolling by Larry Wight for second and I don't think anybody wanted to be third on that next restart. Timmy was third on the restart before and that's how I got by him. Then I got pinned down there and just lost some ground. I started rolling again there at the end, but it was too little too late."
Wight was happy to earn a top-five finish, but naturally would have preferred to hold on for the win. Mostly, Wight was surprised McCreadie was able to use the outside lane to take the win.
"I never thought anyone could get the top to work with it that far out and as nasty as the cushion was, but he must have been free enough where he could lean on it," Wight said. "It seemed to be that if I went up there it would pull the nose and the car was a handful up there."
Erick Rudolph was the 811 Dig Safely New York redraw bonus eligible driver as the eighth starter. He raced to a sixth-place finish in the Feature event. Pat Ward, who raced to an 11th-place finish, was the Pole Position Raceway Fast Qualifier. Series driver Peter Britten received the Speedy First Aid Hard Luck award after he was the first car out of the race at his home track.
The Super DIRTcar Series returns to action at Utica-Rome Speedway on July 2 for the New Yorker 100. For additional event information, visit www.uticaromespeedway.com.

BLEWETT WINS HARD FOUGHT GSC AT WALL SATURDAY

BLEWETT WINS HARD FOUGHT GSC AT WALL SATURDAY
WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Howell’s Jimmy Blewett battled with several top competitors before finally taking the checker flag in the Garden State Classic for Freehold Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Saturday night. The race has proven to be a special one for the Blewett family as both his father, John Blewett, Jr., and his brother, the late John Blewett III, have won the race in the past. Jimmy Blewett’s Saturday night win was his fourth in the annual summer classic.
Derek Hopkinson of Toms River, who started on the pole by virtue of his fast time in qualifying, was the first leader of the event before he spun from the top spot. This set up a side-by-side battle for the lead between Blewett and Holmdel’s Andrew Krause who was charging in the outside lane. After several laps of dicing Blewett slipped to the lead with North Carolina’s Danny Bohn slipping into second.
Bohn and Krause then chased Blewett through the middle stages of the race before Krause pitted for new right side tires on lap 60. Soon after Blewett and Bohn both pitted for their new tires and that set up a battle to the finish.
The fight for first continued until the lap 90 mark when Krause’s car developed a fluid leak that caused him to loose traction and eventually drop from the contest. Bohn also dropped from the race in this late stage. Blewett was the leader but the event was far from over as defending race winner Steven Reed of Jackson advanced to second after recovering from at least two mishaps earlier in the contest.
Blewett raced on to the win with Reed second, Jonathan Mandato of Toms River an impressive third, Jackson’s Blake Barney fourth and Trevor Alspach of Willingboro fifth.
“Before the race I just wasn’t feeling it with the car,” Blewett said. “(Crew chief) Rob Ormsbee and I went to our notebook and changed the set-up to how it was the first time we won with it. Hard work does have its rewards.”
Beachwood’s Elliott Wohl raced to his first win of the year in the companion 25-lapper for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks. He fought off Manchester’s Scott Riggleman in the closing laps and Joey Helberg of Union was third. Tom Rajkowski of Fords was fourth and Whitey Miller of Jamesburg was fifth.
Howell’s Brian Osborn grabbed the lead in the final lap to take the win in the 25-lapper for the Surf Side Collision 4 Cylinder Stock 25-lapper. Todd Pilla of Beachwood, who had slipped into the top spot with a handful of laps remaining, was forced to settle for second. Wall’s TJ Graves, Christian LaCicero of Lavallette and Darren Burdge of Jackson completed the top five.
Howell’s Robert French became the winningest driver in the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars ranks by taking the 25-lapper Saturday. French led most of the race to his 26th career win and fought off several competitors including Louie Keraitis of Toms River and Browns Mills Vinny Troia who finished second and third. Tony Hodgson and James Van Wickle completed the top five.
Racing returns this Saturday night, July 1. The holiday weekend Saturday night card will feature the Modifieds in a 40-lapper and the Snap-on Sportsman cars, the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models, the Factory Stocks, 4 Cylinder Stocks and the TQ Midgets all in 25-lap main events.

ACCORD SPEEDWAY NEWS
Posted by: | CommentsAccord, NY- "Showtime" Danny Tyler Dismantles Tough Accord Speedway Field To Capture First Win
By: Steve Pados, Accord Speedway Media
The quiet serenity of the Catskill Mountains turns into a heart throbbing and pulse quickening experience every Friday night during the summer months as raw horsepower and great driving skills displace the gentle mountain breezes and erupts in the peaks and valleys like a small earthquake. The once "it spot" for the hundreds of thousands of vacation goers and travelers migrating to the once famous Grossingers and The Concord Resorts, where the top stars in the entertainment business performed on a regular basis, has now given way to the stars and cars that make up the stellar driving roster of the eight divisions of racing that entertained the loyal band of racing fans who fill the Accord Speedway grandstand seats to see their favorite driving heroes perform on a weekly basis. The Friday event at Accord was another excellent show and sponsored by Kingston Nissan, located in Kingston, New York. (www.kingstonnissan.net) Emmanuel's Marketplace sponsored the exciting Four Cylinder Enduro event. ASI Trophies was the Checkered Flag bonus sponsor.
Securing wins on Friday night at Accord were Danny Tyler in the United Pump & Tank Modified main event. "The Bushkill Bullet" Kyle Rohner remained the hot ticket at Accord with his third win of the season in the Arkel Motors Sportsman division. "The Jersey Force" Anthony Recchio captured his third win of the season in the WRWD Radio Rookie Sportsman main. Steve Williams finally unraveled the mysteries of his early season and captured his second win of the season in the Upstate Auto Pure Stock feature event. Brock Pinkerous scored his first career win at Accord in the Want Ad Digest Junior Slingshot main. The WRWD Radio NEWS Sprint Car finale found "The Radical One" Tom Radivoy racing to his second win of the season. Dave Donovan scored his second win of the season when he captured the Emmanuel's Marketplace Four Cylinder Enduro event. Mike Houghtaling raced his Vintage Modified to a wire to wire triumph in the Northeast Vintage Modified feature.
The United Pump & Tank Modified starting field began with Richie Eurich jumping out to an early lead and he was able to build onto that lead until lap seven when a tremendous crash on the front stretch found at least seven cars crunching together. Title contender Danny Creeden, Jesse Marks and Ed Dachenhausen were eliminated from further competition in the fracas. When racing resumed it would be Eurich once again in command with Danny Tyler and Richard Smith taking up the chase. Eurich was still leading on lap twenty when Tyler was able to put gobs of pressure on him. They raced side by side for a lap until Tyler was finally able to wrest the lead away for good on lap twenty two. Once in front, Tyler checked out on the filed and romped to his first win of the season. Richie Eurich settled for runner-up honors in a brilliant ride and Richard Smith continued having a great season with a third place run. Kenny and Scott Ferrier completed the top five. The returning Mike Ricci, Brad Rothaupt, Kyle VanDuser, Jimmy Wells and Joe Judge completed the top ten.
The WRWD Radio Rookie Sportsman headliner found Anthony Recchio blasting out of the blocks to take the lead with Ryan McCartney following. McCartney would bobble a few laps later and would lose the runner-up slot to the hard charging Stan Vishinski. Vishinski showed his front bumper at times but Recchio was smooth as silk in racing to his third win of the season. Vishinski was second with Vinny Visconti third, Jared Miller fourth and John Miller fifth. Completing the top ten included Jimmy Devitt, newcomer Bob Jashembowski, Hunter Lapp, the returning Jason Feinberg and Jake Granacker.
The Arkel Motors Sportsman encounter found Chris VanDuser setting a fast pace at the start of the event and opened up some distance but just as quickly Matt Shultz cut down the distance and was knocking on the door. Shultz knocked a little too much on lap sixteen as he got into the back of VanDuser and turned him around while wounding his own race car in the process. VanDuser was installed back at the front but now had former two-time champion at the speedway Kyle Rohner at his back bumper. Rohner was owning the baseline of the speedway on this night and on the restart Rohner would forge into the lead and would open up a huge advantage on the field leading the event the rest of the way and claiming his third win of the season in the process. Tony Kowalchuk would finish in the runner-up role in another stout run for the local racer. Robbie Knipe, Brandon McGill and Milton Mann completed the top five. Cole Hentschel, Tyler Johnston, Jimmy Johnson, Ralph Ronk and Corey Cormier completed the top ten.
The Upstate Auto Pure Stock feature found Travis Brockner jumping out front at the start of the feature with a great pass off of turn two. Brockner was able to hustle away from the rest of the field and would continue to do so for thirteen laps until mechanical gremlins found him pulling up lame while leading. Steve Williams inherited the lead and would lead the final two laps to claim his second win of the season. Defending track champion Bob Sleight finished second with John Hechinger, Ray Tarantino, Emerson Cargain Jr and Chris Kanuk completing the field.
The WRWD Radio NEWS Sprint Car Feature found Tom Radivoy starting on the pole and he made the most of it by leading all twenty laps enroot to his second win of the season. Things got hairy before the midway point of the event when a double flip involving Brandon Gates and Larry McVay took place with Geoff Quackenbush also being involved. No injuries were reported in the scary incident. On the restart Radivoy again was in command but Eric Jennings would push Radivoy for all he was worth as Radivoy won with Jennings in the runner-up role. Heidi Hedin had an excellent run with a third place finish While Corey Wood, Andrew Davis, Bob Tersillo and Jeremy Quick completed the field.
The Want Ad Digest Junior Slingshot main event was claimed by Brock Pinkerous for his ever win at the speedway.
The Emmanuel's Marketplace Four Cylinder Enduro event found a twenty four car starting field primed and ready to go. The event had many leaders in the first sixteen laps but Dave Donovan made it count as he found the space and the place to drive through the field to race to a solid over Gene Helms. Drew Boniface, George Barringer and George Zeininger completed the top five.
Mike Houghtaling grabbed the lead at the start and he raced to daylight to claim the Northeast Vintage Modified main. The race was marred around the midway point of the event when Bob Schmidt, who was running third at the time, lost a battle with the unforgiving boiler plate and found himself flipping several times on the backstretch. Schmidt was unhurt in the accident. Ray See Sr was second, with Rob Casti, John Roese and Mike Cole completing the field.
GEMSTONES:
Heat racing action was fast and furious as Danny Creeden, Ed Dachenhausen and Jesse Marks claimed victories in the Modifieds. Kyle Rohner and Matt Shultz captured wins in the Sportsman heats. The Rookie Sportsman heats went to Ryan McCartney and Jake Granacker. Tom Radivoy and Bob Tersillo captured the Sprint car heats. Pure Stock heats were claimed by Ray Tarantino and Bob Sleight.
New drivers on board for the evening included Bob Jashembowski and Jason Feinberg in the Rookie Sportsman. Larry Mekic made his first Accord appearance in the Modified and did a great job in his first outing. Greg McCloskey returned to action in the Sportsman but suffered from problems and was an early withdrawal.
Many thanks go out to a fine group of people who helped in the Bike Night Promotion. Kingston Nissan, Danny Creeden Racing/Roger Humsen, Jesse Marks, Dave & Joanne Rocket, John Bankich, Dreaming of the Mouse Travel, Chet Doolan, Upstate Auto and Accord Speedway.
