Hamlin, PA - McLaughlin Family Sweep; Joel Smith Dazzling In 600 Sprints Highlights Action At Hamlin Speedway

By: Steve Pados, GA Motorsports Media

The successful Hamlin Speedway promotional team of Randy and Denise Smith presented another spectacular and entertaining racing card for their great fans with seven divisions of racing talent that filled the Hamlin Speedway speed arena last evening. The second week of exciting racing action produced another great crowd for the new season and 116 entries came out to do battle in the Pocono Mountains and the racers gave it everything they had as they maneuvered their hot rods around the tricky-quick and perfectly manicured 1/5 mile clay cushioned arena. When all was said and done, the S&S Speedways sponsored event saw many familiar faces smiling in the winners circle and their pockets full of jingle from their solid racing experiences. The sizzling on track action was completed at 10:22 PM.

The eight features evening of speed produced many great battles and the Wingless 600 Sprint division feature found "The Nickel Man" Joel Smith edging "The Traveling Man" Mick D'Agostino in a wing ding battle with the fireworks coming in the closing laps. The All Star Slingshot feature found "Magic Shoes" Mike McLaughlin wiring the field as he had the hot ticket to victory. Not to be outdone, Mike's daughter "Lil Miss" Shelby McLaughlin earned her second consecutive win in the Junior Slingshot finale in a great night for the McLaughlin Family. "The Ambassador" Wes Hearn captured the win in the Super Slingers feature event. "Deuce" Glenn Macomber won his first Wingless 270 Sprint feature at Hamlin in a great run for him. Bill Dianella shook off his misfortune from a week ago to win the feature in the Hampton RV and Trailer Stage One Modified run in a close battle with Cole Stangle. Tyler Ulrich hustled his way around the Hamlin Speedway to capture the first of two JPA Masonry sponsored Rookie 600 Sprint features and Damon Paul was all business as he captured the nightcap for the rookie stars.

The Junior Slingshots toured the Hamlin oval quickly in their 20-lap feature excursion. The "Stars of Tomorrow" rarely disappoint and Shelby McLaughlin grabbed the lead at the start and held off attacks from JJ Rice and Tanner Van Doren as the race wore on. Rice and VanDoren got together towards the end of the feature and both went to the rear of the field. McLaughlin drove away to the win, her second in a row, with John Kendall grabbing runner-up honors and Jake Mason third, Tyler Banks fourth and James Benz completing the top five. JJ Rice raced back to sixth place with Tommy Stillo, Adam Buchel, Tanner VanDoren and Austin Homan completing the top ten.

Dale Kober took command of the Super Slinger feature through the first six laps. After spinning out on the initial lap, Wes Hearn came hustling back and slipped past Kober for the lead just after the midway point, only to see Kober regain the lead on the next corner. This back and forth action remained throughout the duration of the event with Hearn snaring his first win of the season. Kober was second with Jimmy Conroy third in a stout run. Greg Zellman and Jeff Haduck rounded out the field.

The Wingless 600 Sprint feature was hell's bells from the start of the event. Mick D'Agostino out-hustled Pat Bealer into turn one and began it started a catch me if you can run around the Hamlin Speedway. Joel Smith quickly moved into the runner-up slot by lap five and little by little closed the gap between he and D'Agostino. By the midway point the front six were running under a blanket as now rookie sensation Damon Paul became a player. With the laps clicking down and slower traffic in front of the leaders, D'Agostino went to the top while Smith darted to the bottom. Smith had more momentum and captured a narrow win over D'Agostino with Damon Paul third. Pat Bealer was fourth while Colin White raced hard to nail down fifth place. Zac Azzalina headed up the second five with Justin Mill, Mark Manieri, Sam Kravitsky and Brandon Azzalina.

Tyler Ulrich had the hot hand and a very fast racer as he grabbed the lead at the start of the first JPA Masonry sponsored Rookie 600 Sprint main and though he withstood a few restarts he dominated the event to capture his first win Hamlin. Chloe Andreas raced hard to finish in second with Mikey Smith, Kyle Exley and Joey Amantea completing the top five. Jr Williams, Tyler Lindsey and Carmen Leggio Sr were next in line.

The second JPA Masonry Rookie 600 Sprint main found Damon Paul at the head of the class as he led all of the way with Justin Mills glued to his rear bumper through the twenty laps. Both racers were basically turning equal times and Paul won with Mills in second. Jacob Balliet was third with Noah Zielinski fourth and Geordan Marrero settling for fifth. Joe Nemeth and Jake Roberts followed in sixth and seventh.

Bill Dianella was a firecracker at the start of the Hampton RV and Trailer sponsored Stage One Modified finale as he took control of the lead from his outside pole start and quickly ran to daylight. By the midway point, all eyes were on Cole Stangle as he began to get faster with each passing lap. Stangle tried but couldn't muster the needed run to slip past Dianella although he was turning faster times. Dianella won the feature with Stangle in second. AJ Hobbs was third with Jasper Ziegafuse fourth and early contender John Mirabelli fifth. Michael Samony, Cody Motto and Janell Geary completed the field.

Mike McLaughlin took the lead at the start of the headliner for the All Star Slingshot race cars and maintained a small advantage early on despite constant pressure from Taylor Mills and Josh Marcus. Mills and Marcus fought it out for a few laps allowing McLaughlin to build up a lead. Opening night winner Russ Benke was making headway and would get to fourth place. With few cautions and McLaughlin clicking off steady 13.6 second lap times, he would drive into victory circle on this night. Mills was second with Marcus third in what may be his best finish to date at Hamlin. Benke was fourth and Dale Kober rounded out the top five. Heading up the second five were Nick Vinciguerra, Jared Silfee, Austin Silfee, Mike Fogler and Cole Stangle.

Jenna Schostkewitz jumped into the lead at the start of the headliner for the Wingless 270 Sprints and led the first two laps before encountering difficulties that would take her out of the event. Glenn Macomber inherited the lead and although Mike Kalman would pressure him throughout the entire distance it would be Macomber scoring his first win in Wingless competition. Kalman would be second with Alex Reinsmith third, Don Schmidt fourth and Kyle Ferrucci completing the top five.

Pearl Jams:

Promoter Randy Smith dodged a bullet through hard work and determination as he put fresh clay down at the facility on Friday only to have a massive thunderstorm come through the area in the AM hours of Saturday morning. Smith worked up to race time to prepare the track and the strong effort paid off as the speedway was in excellent condition and the lap times were fast throughout the evening as Smith worked his magic to have the track racy from the very outer reaches to the basement of the facility. The effort produced some excellent side by side and more wide racing action and the great field of race cars that converge in the Poconos has spelled a great formula for success. Smith kept the race-ready track groomed to perfection and constantly manicured throughout an evening of racing to insure all competitors of a fast, smooth surface that is seemingly faster with each week of racing action. The hot lap sessions and heat races alone were without a doubt worth the price of an admission ticket

Time trials and heat races were the preliminary attractions and the Wingless 600 Sprints really dug their right rear tires into the new clay. Brandon Azzalina was top timer with a 12.077 second lap followed closely by Joel Smith at 12.123. The Stage One Modifieds found Joel Smith with a fast hot rod as he clocked in at 13.210 second to claim the top time over Cole Stangle.

Heats races were claimed by Jeff Haduck in the Super Slingshots and Mike Kalman in the Wingless 270 Sprints. Slingshot heats went to Nick Vinciguerra, Tanner VanDoren and Russ Benke. A B-Main was need to establish the starting field with the win going to Samantha Muller. Rookie 600 Sprint heats were claimed by Geordan Marrero, Tyler Ulrich and Justin Mills. Junior Slingshot heats were won by John Kendall and Tanner VanDoren.

New faces at the speedway for the event included Tommy Stillo, Brian Smith and Gavin McClure in the Junior Slingshots. Randy Lawrence was a first timer for the Super Slingers. Chris Kurtz, Sam Kravitsky, Adam Huff, Tyler Galatro Kyle Exley and Jared Lilly were newcomers to the 600 Sprint ranks. Brett Altemose made his first appearance of the season in the Rookie 600 Sprint ranks. Austin Silfee, Nick Delcampo, Tanner Jones and Clayton Davey were new racers for the All Star Slingshot division.

Racer Kyle Exley made his final appearance at the speedway as the young man is headed off to San Antonio, Texas for basic training in the US Air Force. We thank Kyle for his work at the speedway and wish him well in his new endeavor.

Spotted at the speedway were former racers at Hamlin, Larry Hoagland and Tex Snyder. Bridgeport Speedway director Danny Serrano was on hand for the evening and very complimentary on the well organized format at the speedway.

The Hamlin Speedway Is The "Pearl" Of The Poconos

Hamlin, PA - Hamlin Speedway Cold, Racing Sizzles With Spectacular Eight Feature Event Card

By: Steve Pados, GA Motorsports Media

The 2017 racing season at the Hamlin Speedway got underway on Saturday night to a rousing start with a great collection of veteran and first time performers wasting no time in displaying their style and guile on the 1/5th mile clay oval speedway. Successful promoters Randy and Denise Smith ushered in their twelfth season at the Hamlin facility with an opening night filled with spectacular racing action. The Smith Family and Staff welcomed in a convoy of 124 talented racers from a surrounding five-state area to their premier short track facility located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. The opening day event was chillier than expected as the night time chill in the air (40 degrees) had the brave opening crowd on hand seeking jackets, blankets, and plenty of hot beverages to keep warm. The opening night crowd was treated to an old-fashioned donnybrook of high-flying action on the freshly clayed and banked 1/5 mile racing facility and the lightening fast action allowed for the talented daredevil racing roster to use all of the available speed lanes to present a great evening of racing entertainment. The eight feature event racing card and time trials went off as scheduled and the non-stop racing action was completed at 11 PM and when was all said and done eight elated winners found there way into Hamlin Speedway victory circle for the traditional pomp and circumstance.

The extended hot-lap sessions opened the day's events as the drivers were given ample opportunity to dial in their cars for the evening of racing. The track proved to be silky smooth as the drivers promptly began flirting with all of the racing channels of the speedway. The hot lap sessions lasted an hour and allowed the many new and veteran drivers an opportunity to test the new racing surface and the great field of cars on hand never skipped a beat as they dug their right rear wheels into the rich Pocono clay that was in great condition despite the always frigid weather the Poconos receives during the winter months. The time trials and dual heat format for the Wingless 600 Sprints determined the starting format for the evening of racing that was to follow.

The seven headline divisions found the 28 entries for the JPA Masonry Rookie 600 Sprints broken into two feature events based on time to allow the rookie drivers equal seat time and to become acquainted with the speedway. Jakson Ring and Damon Paul were victorious in the two events. Jenna Schostkewitz dominated the action in the now Wingless 270 Sprint main. "The Jersey Force" Anthony Recchio stepped into a new division and came away with a convincing win in the Hampton RV and Trailer Sales Stage One Modified feature. Russell Benke opened his season on a fine note with a wire to wire triumph in the All Star Slingshot main event. and came away with his first win in his major step up the racing ladder. "The A-Team" Brandon Azzalina base-lined his way to a super win in the 600 Sprint finale, after taking over for early leader Joe Smith. "Lil Miss" Shelby McLaughlin captured the Junior Slingshot main event while "The Oxford Express" Dale Kober was triumphant in the Super Slinger feature event.

The starting field of seventeen Junior Slingshots took off in their scheduled 20-lap feature jaunt. JJ Rice out-dragged Tanner VanDoren into turn one and led much of the first three quarters of the event. Getting into slower traffic proved to be the Achilles heel for Rice as both Shelby McLaughlin and Tanner VanDoren slipped past him. McLaughlin would lead the final laps to capture her first victory at the speedway. VanDoren would wind up second with Rice in third, John Kendall fourth and newcomer James Benz completing the top five. James Hendricks, Ryan Conrad, Jake Mason, Joey Kalafut and Colton Geary completed the top ten.

The first Rookie 600 Sprint main event found the returning Justin Grosz leading the first eight laps before yielding to a high-flying, low-riding defending track champion Jakson Ring. Ring would get plenty of pressure from Grosz and Justin Mills and the three car battle would run its course on lap-18 when Grosz spun out. Ring would lead the final circuits to capture the win with Mills in the runner-up slot and Scott Slater Jr coming on strong to finish third. Chloe Andreas took her first ride in a 600 Sprint and did a great job to finish fourth and newcomer Tyler Lindsey was equally impressive in nailing down fifth place. Noah Zielinski, Tyler Kehs, Cody Powell, Joey Amantea and Ryan Lacoe completed the top ten.

The second Rookie 600 Sprint main found it to be a showcase for Damon Paul as the Stage One Modified champion from a season ago was hammer down from start to finish in capturing the twenty lap event. Newcomer Tyler Ulrich was impressive in a runner-up role while Joe Nemeth, Geordan Marrero and the returning Zack Weisenfluh completing the top five. The second five included Scott Slater Sr, Jake Roberts, Savannah Leggio, Jacob Balliet and Hunter Metzger.

The Super Slinger feature found Wes Hearn and Dale Kober resume their on-going track battles and it would be Kober leading the entire distance to kick off his season in fine fashion. Hearn was second with Jeff Haduck, Jimmy Conroy and Greg Zellman following.

The Wingless 600 Sprint main was all-star caliber from the drop of the green flag as Joe Smith charged to the front for the first half of the event with pressure coming from as many as ten other cars who all had the same notion of getting to the front. Lapped traffic would prove to be a factor with Brandon Azzalina challenging Smith from the baseline. Azzalina drove down to the baseline glued himself there and took over the lead on lap-17. Once in front, "The A-Team" put on a dazzling drive that found him in the 12-second mark as the race wore on. Azzalina would score the win with Pat Bealer in second, Joe Smith third, defending track champ Chad Sandt fourth and "TK" Tommy Kunsman nailing down fifth in his return to the speedway. Robbie Hocker headed up the second five with former champion Bobby Butler and Colin White, James Morris and Damon Paul competing the top ten.

Jenna Schostkewitz led the entire distance to capture the Wingless 270 Sprint main. The redesigned class found the action tight with newcomer Tyler Ulrich grabbing up runner-up honors. Mike Kalman was third with Glenn Macomber fourth and Paul Richard Sr fifth. Newcomer Jason Muldowney was sixth.

The Hampton RV and Trailer Stage One Modifieds found Anthony Recchio showcasing his talent in a new division as the second generation driver led all twenty laps enroot to his first win in his first race in the division. Cole Stangle kept pace and settled for second with John Mirabelli third in his first run, the returning AJ Hobbs fourth and Jasper Zeigafuse steering the Smith Fabrications Rental to fifth place. Michael Samony, Evan Civick, Janelle Geary and newcomer Cody Motto completed the field

The All Star Slingshot main event saw an elite 25-car field take the green flag in their feature attraction. Russell Benke shot out of the blocks like a cannon at the start of the event and would establish the point with former track and national champion Cody Kline breathing down his tailpipe. Benke never waivered even when slower traffic came into play as he would lower his times in the event to 13.8 seconds with both Kline and Wes Hearn and Cole Stangle in the same range. Benke would be seriously challenged throughout the event but prevailed with a great win to start off the season on sound footing. Kline would finish second with Hearn third, Stangle fourth and Mike McLaughlin topping the front five. The second five included Jared Silfee, the returning Mike Fogler, Nick Vinciguerra, Scott Neary and Alan Kober.

Pearl Jams:

The new season of racing at Hamlin kicked-off in spectacular fashion and a strong loyal fan base in support of the evening of events. The great concession stand was doing a brisk business all evening long with plenty of Chicken Noodle Soup, hot coffee and hot chocolate being dispersed.

A tip of the fedora to Randy Smith and crew for working diligently on the speedway throughout the evening to make the speedway racy throughout all of the events. The Randy Smith moniker, "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" speaks volumes for the great show presented.

The speedway has an aggressive season of special events planned for the 2017 season and small car division racing is definitely the wave of the future and truly happening at the Hamlin facility. The increasing numbers for small car division racing continues to rise and those who have the need for speed and want to remain within their budget restraints, Hamlin Speedway offers the superb alternative with their many divisions of great and affordable competition.

The new season brought out a great new batch of new and refurbished racing equipment to the speedway. Along with many new race cars, many new faces put in their first Hamlin Speedway appearances and the car count of 124 speaks well as the draw of racing equipment to the Pocono facility has far reaching effects with the New England driving contingent adding great flavor to the exciting racing action. The fans had the opportunity to check out the many new paint schemes and graphics of the great field of cars on hand and the seasonally changing rookie division will act as the farm system for many full size racing divisions at other speedways for those who will make the transition into the regular divisions in the future.

New drivers on hand included James Benz, Ryan Conrad, Joey Kalafut, Austin Homan, Matthew Backus, Abby Yates, Mikey Johannes and Tyler Banks in the Junior Slingshots. New rookie 600 Sprint drivers included Chloe Andreas, Tyler Lindsey, Joey Amantea, Aiden Borden, Tyler Ulrich, Zack Weisenfluh, Jake Roberts and Macy Litchauer. The 270 Sprints had Tyler Ulrich and Jason Muldowney as new additions. Kyle Spence, Justin Grosz and Damon Paul added to the 600 Sprint field. Anthony Recchio, AJ Hobbs, John Mirabelli, Cody Motto and Jasper Zeigafuse were new entries for the Stage One Modifieds. Scott Neary, who last raced at Hamlin in the Go Kart era at the speedway, headed up the new Slingshot stars along with CJ Fritz, Tanner VanDoren, Corey Zielinski and the return of Mike Fogler, Cody Kline and Troy Langendoerfer.

Former track champion "The Conductor" Bobby Butler and the defending New Egypt Sprint car champ, was on hand and tried to make things happen and it cost him a couple of spots near the end but still enjoyed a great run. front. Some misfortunes connected a few drivers such as Emily Fleming and Samantha Muller in the Slingshots while Mack Brink suffered front end damage in his 600 and Tony Parlanti got upside down in one of the feature events in the Rookies. Danny Buccafusca encountered some opening night gremlins with his new mount and scratched out for the evening.

Special thanks are in order to all of the Quarter Midget and Go Kart Clubs in the local areas for assisting in preparing the future driving stars for battle as they transition into the next phase of their racing careers.

Get well wishes remain order for speedway videographer Barry Boyd. .
