BLEWETT AND RAIN CLAIM WALL MODIFIED RACES
WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Jimmy Blewett continued his winning ways in the All American Auto Group Racing Series at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night by taking the victory in the first of two scheduled 35-lap main events for the Pete and Elda's Bar/Carmen's Pizzeria Modified stock cars. The second planned 35-lapper, along with two other main events, fell victim to sudden heavy rain.
Blewett started the first feature race from mid-pack and immediately started his march to the front while Howell's Eric Mauriello led the early going. Action then slowed on lap 12 when Lavallette's Adam LaCicero spun in turn four. Officials then instructed Blewett to go to the rear of the field as they felt that he contributed to LaCicero's miscue.
Mauriello continued to lead as Holmdel's Andrew Krause and Jackson's Steven Reed applied pressure. Soon Krause spun with a flat tire as Blewett throttled into second spot. Blewett then raced past Mauriello for the lead and eventual win. Blake Barney of Jackson and Shaun Carrig of Little Falls were second and third, while Reed and Manasquan's Kenny Van Wickle wrapped up the top five.
“This win is real special for my family,” Blewett said after he race. “This is the 300th win for my family. My father raced and won a lot and of course my brother won many races. My grandfather has been there for every one of those wins. This is very important to us.”
Jarret DiGiantomasso of Jackson took the lead on the second lap and then paced the field to the end of the companion 25-lapper for the Center State Engineering Sportsman car. The race was red flagged on lap 11 when Louie Keraitis of Toms River got caught in a skirmish on the front stretch, hit the guard rail and flipped his car and then slid upside down into the first turn. Fortunately, he was not injured.
DiGiantomasso held his ground to the finish over Howell's Howie Conk, Jackson's Kyle Scisco, Jonathan Laureigh of Lanoka Harbor and Eddie McCarthy of Pt. Pleasant.
Tim Proctor won he 25-lap main event for the visiting Three Quarter Midgets over Ryan Tidman and Buddy Sload.
The rain postponed O'Shea's Auto Repair Factory Stock and Mike's Performance Center Limited Late Model races, along with the second Modified main event, will be made up at a later date.
Stock car racers in the All American Auto Group Racing Series will have this Saturday evening (June 2) off as competitors in the the Formula Drift Series visit the speedway for their annual event. The stock car series will then return on June 9 with the annual running of the Garden State Classic for the Modified cars.
Saturday night racing action then continues through early October with schedule details at wallspeedwayracing.com.
Wall Stadium is located on Route 34 in Wall Township, N.J., just one mile north of Garden State Parkway exit 98 and Interstate 195 exit 35B. The speedway hotline number is 732-681-6400 and email address is ckmotorsports@aol.com.

Mintz earns $5,000 payday at Fremont by .057 seconds over Bacon

By Brian Liskai
FREMONT, Ohio - Coming to the checkers for a $5,000 pay day Craig Mintz and Brady Bacon were side by side at Fremont Speedway. At the line, Mintz earned his third straight win by .057 seconds on American Powersports Night.
“I really wasn’t sure where that lapped car was going to go. The lap before he ran the top so I had no idea where to go. I saw Brady under me but I was already committed. I just laid the throttle on the floor and hoped. I’ve never won three in a row. Heck there’s been times I haven’t won three total all year. This crew behind me built a new car after we hurt one at Attica two weeks ago,” said Mintz beside his Eagle Ignition Leads; Real Geese; Design Graphics Group; KS Sales & Service; Anjulina’s; Linder’s Speed Equipment backed #09
“I saw earlier today Robert Ballou tweet we need heavy, wet tracks with some holes. This proved tonight you can have a heavy track that’s smooth. That close of a race is fun. That’s why we do this to put on a show for the people in the stands. I’d rather have a race like that then win by 50 seconds,” Mintz added in the Engine Pro Victory Lane.
Mintz, a two time Fremont track champion, expands his lead in the chase for a third All Pro Aluminum Cylinder Heads FAST 410 Championship Series presented by Ohio Logistics championship.
The K&L Ready Mix NRA Sprint Invader A-main was equally entertaining as Brantford, Ontario, Canada’s Jake Brown and Lima, Ohio’s Max Stambaugh swapped the lead while dicing through lapped traffic for six laps toward the end of the A-main. The pair even touched, which resulted in Stambaugh getting a flat left rear tire. A caution with three laps to go put Jake’s brother Mitch right on his rear bumper but Jake drove to his first career Fremont Speedway win.
“I got together with Max and I feel horrible for that. It was close quarters racing in traffic…I’m not that kind of a driver. I have to thank all my guys, my brother, Brantford Hyundai, Strodes Barbecue, Brown Auto Sales and Service, Hills Tire and Gas. What a great race track and awesome fans. We need racing like this in Canada,” Hill said.
The Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprints ran their 25 lap feature without any cautions and completed it in just over six minutes. Lindsey, Ohio’s Steve Rando utilized a lapped car as a pick to take the lead from Tyler Street with just 11 laps to go to score his first win of the season, holding off a late race charge from Dustin Stroup. Rando also has a win at Attica Raceway Park in 2018.
“I could see where he was going and he couldn’t see where I was coming from and luckily it worked out for me. I thought I was going to get passed there at the end when I couldn’t get around the lapped cars,” Rando said beside his Davis Fabricators, North Coast Asphalt, North Coast Sealing, Garza Construction, Parkmount Wealth, Attitudes Hair Salon backed #19R.
“We put a new car together over the winter…we actually ran it three nights last year and it’s working pretty good. I think we have some things figured out,” Rando added. “I want to thank my mom and dad, my girlfriend Kayleah, Scott, Chris, Leroy, Tony and Dawn and Scott Gressman.”
The 40-lap Fort Ball Pizza Palace 410 Sprints were brought to green by Tyler Gunn and Mintz with Mintz gaining the slight advantage over Gunn, TJ Michael, Bacon, Travis Philo and Spencer Bayston. Mintz set a blistering pace, encountering heavy lapped traffic by the sixth circuit which allowed Gunn and Bacon to close.
Bacon finally took second on lap seven while Gunn, Bayston, Michael and Cap Henry waged an entertaining race for third. Just as Bacon and Mintz began racing side by side for the lead Philo spun on lap 18. Two laps later and Bayston’s run to the front came to a halt as he spun in turn two. Another two laps under green and a pile-up involving DJ Foos, Dan McCarron and Thomas Schinderle on the back stretch brought out the red but thankfully all involved were okay.
With a clear track when the green came back out Mintz pulled away slightly from Bacon, Gunn, Henry and Byron Reed. Once again Mintz quickly found lapped traffic by lap 28 and that allowed Bacon to close. Duane Zablocki spun with 11 laps to go, handing Mintz a clear track.
Mintz again pulled away slightly from Bacon and Gunn and Henry bumped and banged for the third spot. With seven laps remaining Bacon mounted another charge at Mintz. As the pair raced into lapped traffic with two laps to go, Mintz bobbled on the cushion in turn four and Bacon ducked to his inside. The pair raced side by side to the white flag and entering the final two turns a lapped car held Mintz up ever so slightly and it was a drag race to the checkers with Mintz winning by a whisper. Henry, Gunn and Reed rounded out the top five.
Stambaugh and Jake Brown brought the field to green for the 25 lap, $2,000 to win NRA A-main but before a lap could be scored Jeff Williams and Cory Turner got together. On the second attempt to start the race Brown got the advantage over Stambaugh, Devin Dobie, Butch Schroeder and Jared Horstman. Horstman, who won the previous night at Limaland Motorsports Park, would flip after two laps were scored, collecting Matt Westfall who also tumbled. Both were uninjured.
When the green flew Brown had his hands full with Stambaugh with Dobie holding off Mitch Brown for third. A caution for Aaron Robnolte on lap seven kept the field close as Jake Brown led Stambaugh, Dobie, Mitch Brown, Schroeder, Kyle Sauder, Cody Bova and Tim Allison.
When Jake Brown encountered heavy lapped traffic with 11 laps to go Stambaugh and Dobie closed quickly. Stambaugh used a lapped car to take the lead on lap 17 but he and Brown made contact and Stambaugh’s left rear tire started to go low. Dobie would pull to the infield seeking medical attention on lap 19 for a broken power steering line and Stambaugh ducked into the pits to change the tire handing the lead back to Jake Brown.
When the green reappeared Jake Brown pulled away from Mitch Brown, Schroeder, Sauder, Bova and Allison. A caution for Kobe Allison with three laps to go gave Mitch a final shot at Jake. Jake executed a great restart and drove to the win over Mitch Brown, Schroeder, Allison and Bova.
Rando and Street paced the field for the 25 lap 305 sprint A-main with Street grabbing the early lead over Rando, Dustin Stroup and Matt Foos. Street encountered heavy lapped traffic by lap eight and Rando and Stroup closed.
When Street had difficulty getting around a lapped machine on lap 15 Rando pounced, taking the lead. Stroup was able to take second on lap 19 and started to eat into Rando’s lead. A bobble by Stroup exiting turn two with three laps to go may have been the deciding factor in the race. Stroup rebounded to pull beside Rando coming to the checkers but Rando hung on for his 11th career Fremont win over Stroup, Street, Foos and John Ivy.
Fremont Speedway will be back in action Saturday, June 2 for Vision Quest Night. Prior to the night’s racing the 10th class will be inducted into the Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame. Gates will open at 1 p.m. with the ceremony to get underway at 2:30 p.m. Those planning to attend need to purchase a ticket which also gets you into the night’s racing which features the FAST 410 sprints; 305 sprints, dirt trucks and late models.

The 2018 racing season at the Hamlin Speedway has been struggling to get their schedule up to snuff as the whims of Mother Nature have been causing havoc with the Northeast. Three rainouts already this season have made for a crawling start but this past Saturday evening found the weather superb and the racing far greater as the racing drivers put on a whale of a show for their loyal fans. The Smith Family offered another fabulous racing show in the Poconos Mountains on Memorial Day weekend. Promoter Randy Smith had the 1/5th mile clay cushioned facility in impeccable condition and all divisions put on a great show for the great crowd on hand to witness the exciting side by side and nose to tail racing action. The sizzling racing action went of without a hitch and was completed at 10:30 PM. The evening of speed was sponsored by S&S Speedways indoor go karts located in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
When the heart stopping racing action was completed, Austin Silfee captured the 20-lap finale for the All Star Slingshots. Kasey Hufcut raced to his second win of the season in the Junior Slingshots feature attraction. "Bad" Chad Sandt was all business as he wired the field for his second win of the season in the hotly contested Chad Wheeler Excavating Wingless 600 Sprint headliner. "Deuce" Glenn Macomber raced to his first win of the season in the 270 Winged Sprint main event. "The Nickel Man" Joel Smith dominated the action from start to finish as he led all laps to capture his third win of the season in the Hampton RV and Trailer Sales Stage One Modified feature tour event. "The Ambassador" Wes Hearn raced to his first win in the Super Slingers headliner after a lead swap fest with Dale Kober. Joe Nemeth captured his second win in the JPA Masonry Rookie Wingless 600 Sprint headliner.
After being introduced trackside to the fans, the Junior Slingshots rolled away for their scheduled 20-lap feature excursion. Abby Yates grabbed the lead at the start and would lead the first eleven laps of the event with pressure coming from opening night winner James Benz. Kasey Hufcut slipped past Benz on lap nine with aspirations for the lead. Yates got out of turn four too wide and Hufcut made the most of it as he took over control of the point. Once in front, Hufcut was able to drive away from the field with a comfortable margin to record his second straight win at the speedway. JJ Rice ran a great race for third while track champion Shelby McLaughlin was fourth and Abby Yates would finish fifth. The second five found Brain Smith, Aidan Donaldson, Jasper Ziegafuse, James Hendricks and Talon Prinz following.
The 270 Sprint main event found "The Deuce" Glenn Macomber setting a torrid pace. Macomber handled lots of pressure from Kyle Ferrucci early on but Macomber was consistent in the 12.1 second lap times and slowly pulled away and drive to his first win of the season. Ferrucci would finish second with JJ Uliana third and Alex Reinsmith fourth.
The JPA Masonry Rookie Wingless 600 Sprint main saw Joe Nemeth lead the first two laps of the finale that came to a quick halt when Jackson, New Jersey's Aidan Borden barrel-rolled in turned two. Borden escaped injury in the crash. On the restart it would be Nemeth back in command but getting some hard pressure from Dennis Stawinsky. Tyler Lindsay would soon join the leaders and a three car breakaway ensued. A twist, a turn, a wrinkle and a jingle or two slowed the action in the mid stages of the event but Nemeth was in the zone and up to the task as he kept the field behind him and would race to his second win of the season. Stawinsky was the runner-up with Tyler LIndsay, Noah Zielinski and Zack Weisenfluh completing the top five. Brandon Nicholas headed up the second five with Carmen Leggio Jr, Cody Powell, Joey Amantea and Earl Rice completing the top ten.
The Super Slinger feature found the division top two stars Wes Hearn and Dale Kober duking it out from start to finish. An event that produced at least fifteen lead changes would eventually go to Wes Hearn for his first win of the season. Kober would finish second with newcomer Mark Exeter finishing third.
The Chad Wheeler Excavating Wingless 600 Sprint main was top-notch from the drop of the green flag as Chad Sandt found the top of the raceway much to his liking and he blasted out in front of the highly competitive field. Colin White would stay close from his inside perch and track champion Mick D'Agostino would make it a three car battle by lap four. By the midway point of the action as many as eight cars were matching wits and real estate positions. The drivers attacked each other from all angles and reached the top of the cushion and drove to the baseline in an attempt to move forward. In one of the most competitive events ever held at the speedway, it would be Sandt capturing the win with White settling for runner-up honors. Joseph Smith and Joel Smith would race to third and fourth with D'Agostino settling for fifth. Joe Nemeth headed up the second five with Tyler Lindsay, Joey Amantea, Zack Bealer and Mack Brink completing the top ten.
The Hampton RV and Trailer Sales Stage One Modified tour event feature found Joel Smith controlling the event from start to finish as he led all thirty laps to claim the victory. Smith hit his marks flawlessly and ran consistent 13.2 second laps to leave the field in his wake. Adam Buchel raced hard and finished in the runner-up slot and worked hard to hold off a hard charging John Comandini, who would finish third. Tanner VanDoren, Jeff Hineline, Evan Civick, Amanda Buchel and Cody Motto would complete the field.
Austin Silfee would secure the lead at the start of the All Star Slingshot main attraction and that would be all that was needed as he would hold off the attempts of his teammate Scott Neary to race to his first win of the season. Ashley Kober was third with Wes Hearn and Dale Kober nailing down top five finishes. Heading up the second six were Tyler Banks, Jared Silfee, Adam Buchel, Tanner VanDoren, John Kendall and Rachel Dickinson.
Pearl Jams:
Kudos go out to Randy Smith and his staff for preparing an excellent racing surface for the night of racing battles. With all of the rain that fell during the past few weeks and losing back to back shows, it was nothing short of a miracle the racing could take place at all. The show was able to move along swiftly even with Smith and company taking some breaks to constantly manicure the racing surface and gibe all of the competitors an equal track to race on. Rain did fall during intermission but did nothing to halt the festivities this time around.
Glenn Macomber was fast timer for the 270 Sprints with a 12.251 second time. The Junior Slingshots timed and Ashton DeWitt, in his first season at Hamlin, was quick man with a 15.019 time.
Heat race wins were captured by Noah Zielinski and Tyler Lindsay in the JPA Masonry Wingless Rookie 600 Sprint heats. Joel Price and Joel Smith captured heat wins for the Stage One Modifieds. Heat winners for the All Star Slingshots were Dale Kober and Austin Silfee. Colin White and Chad Sandt were the heat winners for the Chad Wheeler Excavating 600 Sprints. Wes Hearn captured the lone Super Slinger heat.
New faces continue to emerge at Hamlin as new competitors included for the Junior Slingshot racers was Talon Prinz. Mark Exeter and Derek DeSilva were new Super Slinger competitors. Robert Burakowski, Matt and Cody Zielinski were new additions to the JPA Masonry Rookie 600 Sprint racers.
A special treat for the Memorial Day fans was Junior Slingshot racer Joey Kalafut providing the playing of the National Anthem with his guitar. He did an excellent job and this may be the start of something big for the aspiring racer from Jessup, Pennsylvania.
The third show of the season is now history!

BUFFALINO MARCHES TO HIS FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON AT NEW EGYPT SPEEDWAY
New Egypt, NJ (May 27, 2018) - At the Salute to Our Veterans Night at New
Egypt Speedway, Dominick Buffalino marched to his first win of the season in
the Modified feature. Connor King took the checkered flag in the Crate
Modified contest. The Street Stock race was won by Bill Liedtka. Ryan Heim
came out on top in the Lyons Construction/Metal Fab Rookie feature. Joe
Garey, Jr. was the victor in the 4-Cylinder race.
As the extra distance 40-lap Modified feature got underway, polesitter
Dominick Buffalino jumped to the head of the pack. Eighth place starting
Brandon Grosso was quickly advancing forward and trekked into the runner-up
position with four circuits completed. Following a caution period on lap
five, Buffalino retained his lead with Billy Pauch, Jr. zipping from sixth
into second and Grosso slipping back to third place. David VanHorn, who
started the event in eleventh, had just moved into fourth place when a flat
tire on John McClelland's car caused the yellow lights to illuminate on lap
nine. Green flag action returned very briefly as Rich Rutski's ride rolled
over in turn one and the red flag was displayed. On the ensuing restart,
Buffalino repelled Pauch, Jr. to maintain his edge with Grosso still in
third. Danny Bouc, who won the last Modified feature on May 5, entered the
top five on lap twelve. On the fifteenth circuit with Buffalino and Pauch,
Jr. in close quarters, action slowed as PJ Oliver and Bryan Kuhl tangled in
the fourth corner. When racing resumed, Buffalino rebuffed another strong
challenge from Pauch, Jr. to keep the lead with Grosso remaining in third
and Bouc climbing past VanHorn for fourth. At the halfway point, Buffalino
was still holding off Pauch, Jr. with Grosso and Bouc dueling for third.
After a good stretch of green flag racing that saw the leaders knifing
through traffic, a string of caution periods on lap twenty eight occurred.
During this time, Pauch, Jr. was forced to retire from the event with a fuel
pump malfunction. Following the multiple yellow flags, Buffalino was still
in front with Bouc and VanHorn driving past Grosso for second and third
respectively with eleven tours remaining. As the race entered the final few
laps, a bobble by Buffalino allowed Bouc to inch closer to the leader.
Buffalino quickly recovered and navigated through some slower traffic to
take his first checkered flag of the season. Also, the win automatically
qualifies Buffalino for the final round of the May Modified Madness Series.
With Bouc coming home in second, VanHorn was third. In the last quarter of
the race, Ryan Krachun was able to motor by Grosso to finish in fourth. The
Modified heats were claimed by Brandon Grosso, Billy Pauch, Jr. and Dominick
Buffalino. Rich Rutski won the consolation event.
Following a restart, Connor King used a third to first place advancement to
win the 20-lap Crate Modified feature. Robby Dunn led the field for the
opening two tours before Tom Princiotta became the leader. After a lap ten
caution, the third place running King, who started the contest in
fourteenth, drove by the top two of Princiotta and Eric Palmer to take
command. The win was King's fifth career victory. Princiotta held off Palmer
for second. Jeremy Martino finished in fourth and Dan Fleming came home in
fifth. Ryan Simmons and Tom Princiotta were victorious in the Crate Modified
qualifying races.
In the 15-lap feature for the Street Stocks, Bill Liedtka slipped by Jon
Meyer on the ninth circuit and paced the field the rest of the way to gain
his second win of the season. Meyer, who took the lead from polesitter Joe
Reid on the second tour, followed Liedtka across the line. Third place went
to Jim Avery. Jerry Stanzione and Marty Derr rounded out the top five.
Ryan Heim passed Bobby Holzwarth as the white flag waved and held on to win
the 8-lap Lyons Construction/Metal Fab Rookie feature. The victory was
Heim's fourth of the year. With Holzwarth finishing second, Paige Brown was
third and Kevin Borden, Jr. was fourth.
Joe Garey, Jr. held off his dad to win the 15-lap 4-Cylinder contest. After
winning the first two races, Joe Garey, Sr. finished in second. Justin Dunn,
Ian Ashford and Doug Ashford completed the top five.
On Saturday, June 2, Premio Foods presents Jeep Night as "The Slideways Six"
(Round of 6) of the May Madness Modified Series takes place at New Egypt
Speedway. Along with the Modifieds, Larry's Hot Rods & Harley's Northeast
