HAMLIN SPEEDWAY NEWS
Posted by: | CommentsHamlin, PA - Silfee Brothers Share Victories In Sensational Hamlin Speedway Racing Action
By: Steve Pados, GA Motorsports Media
Hamlin Speedway and the Smith Family got back on track on Saturday evening with a spectacular racing show that saw seven tremendous feature events presented as the speedway got back on schedule after suffering two consecutive rainouts in the previous weeks. A few of the features went to the wire with the outcome decided in the final moments of the heated racing action. Promoter Randy Smith presented a meticulously groomed race track in place for the more than one hundred entries that would do battle during the evening. After all was said and done, the seven feature race card was completed at 10:15 PM in the evening and the great crowd on hand enjoyed another monumental night of short-track racing excitement, Hamlin style! S&S Speedways was the sponsor for the evening of speed.
The Hampton RV and Trailer Sales Stage One Modified Tour was the headline attraction on this evening and Bill Dianella scored a wire to wire triumph in the initial tour event for the series. Austin Silfee found himself in the winners circle with his first win of the season in a hard fought All Star Slingshot main event over a stellar roster of driving talent. The high flying "G-Man" Grady Johnston captured his second win of the season in the exciting 600 Sprint finale. Paul Richards Jr jumped into the lead and put his hot rod on cruise control to capture the twenty lap spectacular for the non-winged warriors of the 270 Sprints. Jared Silfee outlasted a fine group of young chargers to nail down another victory in the Junior Slingshot finale. Jakson Ring rang his own bell as he was magical grabbing up his first win of the season and the division in the Rookie 600 Sprint main event. "The Ambassador" Wes Hearn was on point as he wired the field in the Super Slinger headliner to win his fourth consecutive win in the division.
The Hampton RV and Trailer Sales Stage One Modified feature saw Bill
Dianella take the lead at the drop of the green flag and race to his second win of the season to kick off his pursuit of the tour title. The win didn't come easy as defending track champion Joel Smith placed plenty of pressure on Dianella's back bumper in brand new Wentz Auto Body Auto Care sponsored hot rod. Smith tried time and time again to unseat Dianella from the top spot but Dianella would hold on to score the series win over a determined Smith. Caitlin Henneforth made her first start of the season aboard the family Stage One chariot and was solid with a third place finish over 69 years young Will Casazza, who was aboard the Smith Fabrication Rental machine for the evening. Damon Paul completed the top five. Young Michael Samony headed up the second five and captured the hard charger award put up by Gasoline Alley Motorsports Media. Behind him were Cole Stangle, Chloe Andreas, Janell Geary and Mike Marold Jr.
The All Star Slingshot main found Chris Kurtz and Austin Silfee battling hard for the number one spot in turn one with Silfee out-hustling Kurtz out of turn two on the initial lap to secure the point. Just as quickly, Wes Hearn would become a player in the battle and one lap later Justin Mills would join the action to make it a four car challenge for the point. As the laps clicked off, Silfee held his line and his ground and would cross under Russ Furry's checkered flag to secure the victory at the speedway. Kurtz was the runner-up with Hearn third, Mills fourth and Brett Bieber working hard to complete the top five. Mike McLaughlin headed up the second five with Russell Benke III, Dale Kober, Alan Selemba and Anthony Recchio completing the top ten.
Chris Kurtz and Grady Johnston made up the front row for the Wingless 600 Sprint feature attraction and while the entry numbers were down on this particular evening, the excitement level of 600 racing was through the roof and the driving roster didn't let the fans down. Johnston grabbed the lead at the start and would lead trade slide jobs with Kurtz early on while the remainder of the field for the most part were doing the same. Real estate was at a premium with the lead cars having their choice of property. Johnston was able to fend off the challenges of Kurtz as Brandon Azzalina became a player from his fifth place starting point. The trio of racers broke into the clear from the rest of the pack and ran nose to tail until the checkered flag with Johnston winning a close decision over Kurtz and Azzalina. JD Casazza shook off his early season woes to claim a hard fought fourth place and Chad Sandt completed the top five. The second five was a tightly knit pack with Sam Kravitsky, Colin White, Danny Buccafusca, Ryan Neil and Joel Smith finishing in that order.
The Rookie 600 Sprint event found Tony Parlanti taking advantage of the high side of the raceway to vault into the lead but he spun in front of the pack to bring out a caution. On the restart, Jakson Ring inherited the lead and made it pay off as he held off all challenges from a hard charging Joe Howey to claim his first win at the speedway with Howey a close second. Scott Slater Jr raced from 13th position to finish third with Mikey Smith fourth and Aaron Casterlin nailing down fifth. The second raced close together throughout the event with Brett Altemose in sixth followed by Scott Slater Sr, Scott Rupp, Tyler Galatro and Mack Brink.
Newcomer to the speedway Bryan Hess seized the lead at the start of the Wingless 270 Sprint main and would lead through four laps until a spill by Kyle Ferrucci brought the race to a halt. On the restart, Paul Richards Jr appeared to be shot from a cannon as he pulled even and then sped past Hess to take command of the race. Richards became quicker as the race progressed turning some fast laps in the 12.280 second bracket to win the event with Bryan Hess impressing everyone with a runner-up finish in his first appearance. Former track regular Louden Reimert showed he didn't forget the fast way around the speedway as he recovered from an early spin to race back through the field for third place. Jenna Schostkewitz, Glenn Macomber, Paul Richards Sr, Tyler Galatro and newcomers Matt and Troy Hoffman completed the top ten.
Wes Hearn grabbed the lead at the start of the Super Slinger feature and fended off the early challenges of Roger Collins early on in the event. Hearn was in a league of his own as he flirted with his own track record through the mid-portion of the race and went on to claim his fourth consecutive win in the new season at Hamlin. Collins, making his first start of the new season, was solid with a runner-up showing and Dale Kober raced to third. Donny Hockman made his first start a good one as well with a fourth place run and John Gilroy made his first start a good one with a top five finish. Ryan Lacoe, Jim Conroy, Steve Pirone and newcomer Jan Gensits completed the field.
The Junior Slingshot event took center stage as Announcer Steve Pados went trackside to introduce the "stars of tomorrow" to the standing room only crowd on hand for the event. After a resounding send-off, Adam Buchel led for the first lap but gave way to the high flying Jared Silfee who took command of the event. On lap seven, fifth place starting Cole Stangle found a burst of speed and drove past Silfee to lead the event. Stangle led through lap twelve when he was trapped momentarily behind a slower car and Silfee was johnny on the spot and reclaimed the lead. As the laps clicked off, Silfee, Stangle and "Junior Excitement" JJ Rice stepped away from the field only to get back into slower traffic with Stangle becoming a victim from contact and bouncing into the inside apron in turn three. The restart found Silfee leading Rice until another restart was needed for a Colton Geary mishap. On the restart the exuberant Rice jumped the start and would cross the line first only to be penalized two spots for the infraction and handing the win to Silfee, his second of the season. Ty Kelly shook off his early season woes to claim a runner-up finish with Rice in third, John Kendall Fourth and Shelby McLaughlin fifth. The second five was headed up by Emily Fleming with Nathen Marold, James Costlow, Colton Geary and Cole Stangle following.
PEARL JAMS:
Despite all of the rain that has been hitting the area of late, the speedway was in excellent condition for the evening of speed and Randy Smith and crew kept at it throughout the evening and gave the great roster of driving talent a superb track to compete on.
The time trialed sessions found Jared Silfee lay down the fast time for the Junior Slingshots at 14.179 seconds just nipping Cole Stangle who clocked a 14.184 time. Time trials for the Rookie Wingless 600 Sprints found AJ Hobbs knocking off a quick time of 12.428 seconds with Mack Brink second with a 12.536 time.
Wes Hearn nailed a heat win the Super Slingers while Colin White and Chad Sandt claimed heat wins in the Wingless 600 Sprints. All Star Slingshot heats were claimed by Wes Hearn, Justin Mills and Austin Silfee. 270 Sprint heats went to Paul Richards Jr and Louden Reimert. The Stage One Modifieds utilized the dual heat format to establish the starting lineup and the first round saw Bill Dianella and Stephen Darling claiming wins while the second round winners were Damon Paul and Joel Smith.
The heat was oppressive throughout the day with the temperature hitting 90 degrees and it was still 76 degrees when the racing ended for the evening.
With this being the fourth entry into the record books for the 2016 season, many of the speedway newcomers are becoming familiar with finding the fast way around the speedway. Impressive showings of the veteran talent had them finding at least three grooves to work their magic from.
Making their first starts of the season on Saturday night included Caitlin Henneforth in the Stage One Modifieds while the veteran campaigner Will Casazza took his first start in the Smith Fabrications rental racer. Ryan Neiger was on hand with his sharp looking Hollywood Towing hot rod. A surprise entry came from former track champion "The 38 Special" Jared LaBagh, but LaBagh retired early from the event with problems under the bonnet. "Thrillin" Dylan Martin made his initial start in a brand new creation. Cody Powell made his initial start aboard a sharp looking number 17. Matt and Troy Hoffman and Bryan Hess were new additions to the 270 Sprint ranks. Part-time campaigner in 2016, Shawna Winters continues to have her problems with her race car as the car suffered from problems through out the evening. Roger Collins, Donny Hockman and Jen Gensits were new additions to the Super Slinger ranks. Regular Accord Speedway performer John Kendall made his first 2016 Hamlin start and did well in his initial outing. Kendall is sponsored by former Modified hot shoe, Billy Eggars.
Former Modified talent Everett Haubrich was taking in the show and thoroughly enjoyed the action on the speedway. "The Sandman" Troy Langendoerfer was in the house and informed Announcer Steve Pados he was in the process of readying his racer for a return to Hamlin shortly.
The Hamlin Hundred scheduled for July 2 will be raising money for Vet Stock that is headed up by Tom Ryan. VetStock coordinates and promotes fundraising efforts for Veteran organizations in Pike and Monroe Counties in the Northeast region of the state. All race teams, fans and sponsors are encouraged to assist in this annual event.

WALL STADIUM AUTO RACING RESULTS MAY 28, 2016
Posted by: | Comments
Wall Stadium
HEARNE AND INGRAHAM TOP MODIFIED TWINS AT WALL SATURDAY
WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Jason Hearne of New Egypt and Brick’s Shawna Ingraham were main event winners in the Memorial Day weekend Twin 35 lap feature races for the Downs Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Saturday night. Both enjoyed their first win of the 2016 season.
Jason Treat of Jackson was the leader at the outset of the first 35-lapper with Hearne and Jonathan Mandato of Toms River almost instant challengers. Hearne slipped into the lead on lap nine with Mandato and Derek Hopkinson of Toms River close behind. By the time 19 laps were complete Eric Mauriello and Jimmy Blewett, both of Howell, advanced to second and third and the battle for second was on!
This battle boiled over when the duo touched in the third turn on lap 20 with Mauriello spinning as a result. That left Blewett to chase down Hearne but his race ended with three laps to go when his car lost power. Hearne then raced on to the win with Brick’s Ron Frees crossing the finish line second. When it was learned during a post race inspection that Frees raced with a tire that was not in his tire bank. He lost the runner-up spot.
Andrew Krause of Holmdel was then recorded as second while Howell’s Justin Gumley, Ingraham and Chas Okerson of Freehold wrapped up the top five.
“I am so glad for (car-owner) Jim Wolf,” Hearne said after the race. “We’ve had a tough couple of years and really needed this win.”
The second 35-lapper saw Mandato the early leader as defending champ Steven Reed of Freehold soon advanced to second. Reed soon looked for a path to the lead but slowed on the backstretch with a broken flywheel moments later. Mandato then fought off Hopkinson and Ingraham as Blewett, who picked up a ride in the Kenny Matlach No. 34 for the second race, moved into contention.
At halfway Blewett had advanced to second and went after the leader when the duo touched in turn four. Mandato was somehow able to retain control of his sliding car while Blewett left the race with a cut tire. On the restart Ingraham chased the leaders before a lane opened on the inside and she made the winning pass. Mandato was the runner-up with Hopkinson, Matawan’s Anthony Sesely and Trevor Alspach of Willingboro wrapping up the top five.
“A lane opened up on the inside and I just took it,” Ingraham, the only woman to win in the Modifieds here said. “The car was awesome.”
Dom Fattaruso of Brick crossed the finish line first in the companion 30-lapper for the Snap On Sportsman cars but when his car’s rev limiter failed to function during post race inspection he was dropped to fourth place on the finishing order as required by the rules. That moved Brick’s Scott Brannick, who was in winning contention most of the way; to the top spot for his first ever win. Howell’s Kevin Davison and Ricky Collins of Willow Grove, Pa. were second and third. Blake Barney of Jackson was fifth.
Steve West of Howell led almost the entire 25-lap distance to win the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stock main event. Wall’s Rob Haberstick was second, with Ron Booth of Eatontown, Brick’s Joe Mongeau and Jerry Stanzione of Keansburg completing the top five.
Leslie Harrigan won the Demolition Derby.
Racing returns this Saturday evening (June 4) with grandstand seating opening at 5:00 p.m. and qualifying starting at 5:45 p.m. Main event action, which will start around 7:00 p.m., will see the Modifieds in a 40-lapper, Sportsman cars in a 30-lapper and the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models in a 50-lap race.

Fireworks Fly for Ryan in Wild Memorial Day Modified Fight at Devil’s Bowl
Masterson, Wood repeat; McKiernan, Murray score first wins of season
WEST HAVEN, Vt. – Jimmy Ryan may have led every lap of the Bond Auto Parts Sportsman Modified feature race on the Asphalt Track at Devil’s Bowl Speedway on Saturday, May 28, but the box score won’t show just how wild the action was behind him. The veteran stock car racer from Shoreham, Vt., outlasted a rough-and-tumble field of competitors to end a six-year winless streak at the inaugural “Yorkmont Memorial Day 5000” and headed a winners list that included Josh Masterson, Jim McKiernan, Zach Wood, and Jeff Murray.
In addition to the on-track action, race fan Emily Catellier of Rutland, Vt., was the happy winner of a $5,000 cash prize given away by sponsor Yorkmont Auto Auctions of Fair Haven, Vt. The event was capped off by a holiday fireworks show by Northstar Fireworks.
One week after a fuel line problem left him on the sidelines, Ryan was in the right place all race long, ahead of several multi-car wrecks that shook up the field. Although Ryan said that his car wasn’t handling well, he was able to withstand a sequence of restarts and drive away from the pack every time. No less than eight different drivers tried to rattle Ryan in the early stages of the race before wrecks, spins, or damage hampered their progress.
When the smoke cleared after 30 laps, Ryan was the convincing winner for the first time since August 29, 2010, and for the first time in his career under the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series. Jackie Brown Jr., of Hurley, N.Y., withstood a long challenge from Jason Durgan and held on for the runner-up spot. Morrisonville, N.Y., racer Durgan settled for third ahead of Ron Proctor and Joey Roberts.
Josh Masterson of Bristol, Vt., was the winner of an entertaining 40-lap race in the Central Vermont Motorcycles Late Model division, for his second victory in as many races in 2016. The Late Models threw off a barnburner, with side-by-side racing leaving tire marks on the doors of almost every car in the class. Masterson drove a strong car to the front of the field after battling with several drivers, then beat hard-charging Robert Bryant Jr., in a restart with just two laps remaining.
Brooklyn, Conn., racer Bryant thrilled the fans with back-to-front run, and came out on top of a sensational fight with Bobby Therrien of Hinesburg, Vt., for the runner-up position. The ever-improving Seth Bridge finished fourth with early leader Steve Miller fifth.
Jim McKiernan of Moriah Center, N.Y., traded some full-fender barbs with Scott FitzGerald during the 20-lap Rosen & Berger Auto Recyclers Renegade race, but came out on top for the second main-event win of his career at Devil’s Bowl. The runner finished ahead of FitzGerald, of West Rutland, Vt., with Colchester, Vt.’s Matt Monaghan third. Ray Germain Jr. finished fourth in his first start in two years, and Tony Salerno was fifth.
Rookie Zach Wood continued the perfect start to his Portland Glass Mini Stock career, going two-for-two in his first two starts. After winning on opening night a week ago, the Georgia, Vt., youngster ran to the win. Wood’s teammate and fellow rookie Eric Messier of Hinesburg, Vt., finished second for the second-straight week. Brad Bertrand, Garrett Given, and Andrew FitzGerald completed the top five.
Jeff Murray of Georgia, Vt., won one of the most competitive Enduro Series races in recent memory, taking the lead from Rutland, Vt.’s Cory Gray with a dozen laps remaining and fending him off in the final laps. Gray held on for second ahead of Andrew Lopes, Brandon Gray, and Brett Wood.
The Dirt Track at Devil’s Bowl Speedway is in action on Sunday, May 29 at 6:00 p.m. for its season-opening event. The Sprint Cars of New England headline the program along with Sportsman Modifieds, Renegades, and Mini Stocks. Regular general admission is $12 for adults and $10 for seniors (62+) and students (13-17). Kids age 12 and under are always admitted for free.
The Asphalt Track resumes on Saturday, June 4 at 6:00 p.m. with the People’s United Bank 100 for the American-Canadian Tour Late Models, plus the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series weekly divisions.
Devil’s Bowl Speedway is located on Route 22A in West Haven, Vt., four miles north of Exit 2 off of U.S. Route 4 and just 20 minutes from Rutland, Vt.

AFTER THREE STRAIGHT RAINOUTS NASCAR STOCK CAR RACING RETURNED TO GRANDVIEW ON SATURDAY NIGHT WITH WINS GOING TO VONDOHREN, SIPE AND BELTZ IN FRONT OF STRONG CROWD
BECHTELSVILLE, PA May 29, 2016 . . . Paint swapping, racing action finally returned to the 1/3-mile high banks of Grandview Speedway on Saturday night following a three-week vacation courtesy of Mother Nature.
T.P.Trailers NASCAR 358 Modified action saw rookie Modified racer and 2015 Sportsman point champion Brett Kressley squeezed out of the lead by defending point champion Craig VonDohren on the white flag lap in the 30-Lap feature. VonDohren went on to score his second win of the season in which he also received $250 from T.P. Trailers and a $150 bonus in products from VP Racing Fuel for running their gasoline. VonDohren gave credit to Kressley on the battle the two ensued and also to Brad Missimer and the entire track crew for the preparation prior to the event.
Bryon Sipe became the fourth different BRC NASCAR 25-lap Late Model feature winner as he led from start to finish to stand in victory lane for the first time since his last win June 23, 2007. Sipe left for a few years and figured he’d return to the only track where he won a feature. He also garnered $100 from T.P. Trailers and also the Dan’s Deli ½-way hoagie award.
A new name entered the winner’s circle in the NASCAR Sportsman feature when Ryan Beltz, who has been competing for several years but never quite able to win, finally got the monkey off his back to win his first 25-lap NASCAR feature. An elated Beltz commented that the crew only consists of himself and his father and thanked his wife Stephanie for putting up with his racing career.
Twelve different drivers have now made it to victory lane in feature races in all three divisions after five weeks of racing.
NASCAR stock car racing action returns to Grandview Speedway on Saturday, June 4 with another great tripleheader card featuring the T.P.Trailers NASCAR 358 Modifieds, BRC Late Models and Sportsman with racing starting at 7:30 p.m. Spectator gates open at 5:30 p.m.
Ron Seltmann Jr., who won his first Modified feature last season, set the pace for four laps before Steve Swinehart, returning to action this year behind the wheel of the Ron Krex No. 9K, took over the lead.
The yellow was displayed on the seventh lap when Chris Esposito stopped in the second turn. S. Swinehart held his own on the restart, but now he had to contend with his day Ray in second trailed by Jared Umbenhauer, Mike Kellner and Doug Manmiller.
Charging towards the front on the outside was Kressley and by the 13th lap he held down the runner-up position. Behind them, R. Swinehart, VonDohren and Manmiller diced for third through fifth.
Kellner brought out the final caution on the 16th lap when he spun in the fourth turn. This time Kressley shot into first with R. Swinehart, S. Swinehart, VonDohren and Mike Gular in pursuit. It didn’t take Kressley long to outdistance himself from the rest. VonDohren regained second on lap 22 and set sail after Kressley who began to encounter lap traffic.
VonDohren closed the gap and made several advances, but to no avail since Kressley held his challenges off. Von Dohren ran Kressley up high numerous times trying to dive under, but couldn’t capitalize on it.
Coming out of turn four for the one to go signal VonDohren took Kressley up a little higher and was able to squeeze him back to second.
The lead never changed and VonDohren chalked up his second with Kressley a well-deserved disappointing second trailed by R. Swinehart, Gular and St. Swinehart, who posted his best finish. Sixth through tenth were Kenny Gilmore, Umbenhauer, Jeff Strunk, Duane Howard and Manmiller.
Seltmann Jr., R. Swinehart and Eric Biehn were the heat winners. The consi was won by Esposito.
Before the first lap of the Late Model feature could be completed the red was thrown when Lou Egrie Jr. hit the first turn wall with heavy impact coming to a rest in the infield between one and two. He got out of the car under his own power, but was shaken up a bit.
When action resumed Sipe was the leader trailed by Devin Frey, Chuck Schutz, driving Buddy Mertz’s No. 00; Drew Weisser and Randy Stoudt.
Weisser found himself in the second turn wall after contact with Stoudt and the yellow was out on lap four. Stoudt was put to the rear for the infraction.
Sipe was still the leader on the restart with Frey, Schutz, Ron Kline and Dave Ogin in tow.
The final caution was on the 14th lap after Ogin and Cory Merkel got together on the backstretch with Merkel spinning. Also involved having nowhere to go were Brian Shuey and Lou Egrie Sr. Only Egrie Sr. could continue. Sipe motored away quickly on the restart.
No one was able to pass Sipe and he went on to claim a well-deserved win trailed by Frey, Schutz, Kline and Ogin. Rounding out the top ten were Bill Henning, Dan Green, Joe Fanelli, Shawn Horning and Egrie Sr.
C. Merkel and Shuey won the qualifying heats.
In Sportsman competition John McGovern took the early lead at the onset of the Sportsman feature.
Battling for positions behind him were rookie Dylan Swinehart, Beltz, Nathan Mohr and Brandon Whitmoyer.
Beltz moved into second on the sixth lap restart needed when Kenny Bock spun in the fourth turn and began to pressure McGovern.
The lead was swapped on the 14th lap just after McGovern picked up the Dan’s Deli ½-way hoagie award as now Beltz was at the front of the pack.
With five laps to go Swinehart overtook second and took chase after Beltz.
The long wait was finally over for Beltz as he pulled into victory lane for a long overdue triumph. Finishing an impressive second was Swinehart, who showed sportsmanship and went over to congratulate Beltz, followed by McGovern, for his best finish; B. Whitmoyer and Mohr, who also turned in his best run ever. Completing the top ten were Jim Housworth, Craig Whitmoyer, who came from deep in the pack after taking a provisional and starting 27th; Mike Lisowski, Brian Hirthler and Ryan Lilick.

Blaney gets late race pass for All Star win at Attica
Posted by: | CommentsContact: Brian Liskai
Liskai2x@roadrunner.com
ATTICA, Ohio Friday, May 27, 2016– On a slick race track there are few better than Hartford, Ohio’s Dale Blaney. “The Low Rider” proved it again Friday at Attica Raceway Park as he threw a “slider” on Chad Kemenah on a restart with five laps to go and went on to score his 130th career Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions victory.
Blaney’s win on Tusing Builders/Kear’s Speed Shop Night is the 25th of his career at Attica of which 18 have been All Star victories.
“That was a hell of a race and a hell of a win. I apologize to James (McFadden) for getting into him. We were both racing really, really hard and I was coming pretty hard at that point and we were going for the same spot. We collected each other…fortunate enough I got through it. We will have some more runs…he’s here for about four months so I know we’ll race hard again,” said Blaney beside his Muddy Outdoor and Hunting Equipment, Big Game Tree Stands, Penske Shocks, Ti22 Performance, GF1 Chassis backed machine.
“I have to thank my guys George and Skippy and Donny…they do an unbelievable job. This is a brand new car. We put it together this week. We really haven’t been running very good, but this was flawless. First time in a long time from lap 20 on I got better,” added Blaney, a six time All Star champion.
Seven time Attica champion Byron Reed from Monclova, Ohio, would get around Kemenah late for a second place finish.
“We’ve had a really good year. We’ve been fast every night out. It felt good. I made one mistake and that’s where Dale got by me. I don’t know if he was a lot faster than me. I think maybe if I didn’t make that mistake it might have been different. I’m happy with what we did,” said Reed beside his Crown Battery, Kistler Engines backed #5.
Kemenah, from Alvada, Ohio, led laps 5 through 35, but would record a third place finish
“We keep hanging around the top five and we get better every time we come here. When it gets to the ‘creeper’ deal like that…that’s where he (Blaney) shines. We weren’t bad…not bad at all. We’ll keep working at it and get better. Every time we run in top five it adds up and the team gets better. You hang around long enough and the wins come in bunches,” said Kemenah beside his Hunter Racing, Seneca Energy, Brilex LLC, JRC Transport, DKW Transport, Champion Oil, Bonnel’s Rod Shop, Nighthawk Holdings backed #10H.
In the Sunoco American Late Model Series “Hammer Down” Doug Drown from Wooster, Ohio would hold off Matt Irey for his third win of the season at Attica. It is his 16th career victory at the track. But the night wasn’t easy as mechanical issues early had the team scrambling to make repairs
“We’ve won four out of the six races we’ve run. This Swartz Race Car is phenomenal. I don’t know why other people haven’t switched to them sooner. They are definitely a pretty damn good piece. I went a little harder on tires than the other guys,” said Drown beside his Hall’s Auto Sales, Kar Konnections, Malcuit Racing Engines, Nationwide Vehicle Protection, Wooster Glass backed #240.
“The guys worked their butts off. We broke a header in hot laps. We welded one up…thanks to Byron Reed and Mike Bores for letting us borrow their welder. My son brought me another one from the house…it’s been an adventure in the pits for us. But the car was just phenomenal,” Drown added.
The Fremont Fence 305 Sprint feature was a barn-burner with Jason Keckler, Jamie Miller, Paul Weaver and Brandon Moore battling throughout. Keckler would withstand a restart with four laps to go to grab his second win of the season. It was the third of his career at Attica.
“I was a little bit nervous on that restart knowing Paul (Weaver) was behind me. I was wondering ‘is he up top or on the bottom.’ Paul’s usually on the top but I saw someone under me and I didn’t know if it was him or Jamie (Miller). I really didn’t want that yellow…especially when I saw who was behind me and how far back he had come from and knowing how good he is when the track gets like this,” said Keckler beside his Meggit Farms, Uncle Bob’s Paint Shop backed #25.
Broc Martin and Brady Bacon would bring the field to green for the 40-lap All Star feature with Martin gaining the advantage. Kemenah would quickly challenge Bacon for second as Martin pulled away slightly. The car on the move early was James McFadden. The Australian would drive into fourth on lap three and took third a circuit later.
Kemenah would drive to the high side of turn four on lap five to take the lead from martin with Bacon and McFadden trading the third spot lap after lap while Cap Henry and Byron Reed stayed close. McFadden would take third on lap seven and two laps later drove into second.
Following a caution on lap nine for a Bradley Howard spin, the racing up front would get very entertaining. Kemenah held on to the lead over McFadden, martin, Bacon, Henry, Blaney, Reed and Trey Jacobs. Henry would storm into third on lap 12 with Reed grabbing fourth a circuit later.
With 15 laps recorded Kemenah’s commanding lead began to dissipate as he drove into lapped traffic. McFadden was comfortably in second while Henry, Reed, and Blaney battled for third. At the half-way point, Kemenah would lead but the race for second had the huge crowd on the edge of their seats between McFadden, Henry, Reed and Blaney.
Henry would take the runner-up spot on lap 22 with McFadden, Blaney, Reed and Trey Jacobs in tow. Blaney and McFadden would make contact on lap 26, sending McFadden off the high side of turn three. On the restart Kemenah lead Henry, Blaney, Reed, Jacobs and Chris Andrews.
Kemenah narrowly avoided disaster with 10 laps to go when he jumped the cushion in turn four. He would gather it back up and maintained the lead over a closing Henry with Blaney, Reed, Jacobs and Andrews in pursuit. Howard and Martin would spin on opposite ends of the track on lap 32.
When the green reappeared Blaney and Reed would get around Henry. With five laps to go Bacon would spin. On the restart Blaney threw a slider at Kemenah and it stuck as “the Low Rider” took the lead. Kemenah would have his hands full now with Reed with Henry, Andrews and Jacobs staying close.
Reed would grab second on lap 38 but ran out of time to reel in Blaney.
“Cap was showing Chad his nose a little bit off of four and two. On the yellow with eight laps to go Chad dropped to the bottom of one and two. That left top open for me and I drove by Cap and it got me in a good spot. I wasn’t very good around the bottom. I couldn’t stop and go very good. Luckily enough he (Kemenah) kept running the bottom of one and two and it gave me an opportunity. It was up in the air what he was going to do on that restart. I thought he would drop but I didn’t know and it gave me a good run at him and I threw it across there and it stuck. I thought I’d see him back under me,” said Blaney of his winning move.
Behind Blaney, Reed and Kemenah, Henry and Andrews would round out the top five with rookie Trey Jacobs, Danny Holtgraver, Kraig Kinser (up from 26th starting spot), Dean Jacobs (up from 20th starting spot) and Travis Philo rounding out the top 10.
Drown and Devin Shiels led the field to green for the 30-lap late model feature. Drown would grab the lead over Matt Irey, Shiels, Brad Malcuit, Rob Anderzack, Ryan Markham and Mike Bores before a caution was displayed for a Larry Bellman, Nate Potts tangle.
On the restart Drown would be hounded by Irey with Shiels, Malcuit, Markham and Bores waging a terrific battle for third. With five laps in Drown had pulled away slightly from Irey with Shiels, Malcuit, Markham, Bores and Jon Henry in pursuit.
The final caution flew on lap 15 for a multi-car crash. This time on the restart Drown couldn’t shake Irey as the pair would run nose to tail the last half of the race. Meanwhile, the race for third continued to entertain between Shiels, Malcuit, Bores, Markham and Henry.
Henry was the car on the move as he drove into sixth with six laps remaining and into fourth by lap 26. No one was going to touch Drown as he drove to the win over Irey, Henry, Shiels and Bores.
“I had a little bit of a respect issue…on those restarts they hit me in the rear a little bit. I don’t understand. That’s why I locked them up. If you can’t pass on the race track you shouldn’t have to wreck somebody. I’m a little upset about that. But other than that the car was phenomenal,” Drown said.
Brandon Moore and Keckler brought the field to green for the 25-lap 305 sprint feature but before a lap could be scored Dan McCarron and Thomas Schinderle would spin. On the ensuing restart Moore would grave the lead over Keckler, Kelsey Ivy and Seth Schneider.
Keckler would close on Moore by lap four and drove around him into the lead a lap later. Behind them was a great battle involving Ivy, Schneider, Jamie Miller and Paul Weaver. Miller took third on lap five and started to close on Keckler and Moore.
With 14 laps scored the battle for the lead was intense between Keckler, Miller, Moore and Weaver. It would have the fans on the edge of their seats until the caution flew with four laps to go for a Steve Rando spin.
The restart order was Keckler, Weaver, Miller, Moore and Ivy. Miller would regain second when the green flew but Weaver and Moore stayed close while Kyle Capodice moved into the top five. Keckler wouldn’t make a mistake and drove to the win over Miller, Weaver, Moore and Capodice.

Wilson Wins Wild Race at The Dirt Track at Charlotte
Captures Circle K/NOS Energy Drink Outlaw Showdown for second career series win
CONCORD, N.C. - May 27, 2016 - A caution with six-laps remaining helped propel 2016 Kevin Gobrecht Rookie of the Year contender Greg Wilson to his second career World of Outlaws Craftsman® Sprint Car Series victory in the Circle K/NOS Energy Drink Outlaw Showdown at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on Friday night.
Wilson, who won his first World of Outlaws race at the 4-Crown Nationals at Eldora Speedway in 2015, led just one lap of the 30-lap feature, after he passed race leader Shane Stewart on the final lap to capture the checkered flag.
"I've never dreamt in my wildest dreams that I would ever get this opportunity," Wilson said. "I have been blessed to run with the World of Outlaws this year. To do this in Charlotte, in front of all these fans, this is badass and that's all there is to it!"
Stewart, who led a race-high 25 laps, settled for a runner-up finish after he easily controlled the top spot for much of the feature.
"Greg [Wilson] is new to the Outlaw deal and it's always cool to see someone get their first Outlaw win - I'm not sure if he's won an Outlaw race before or not," Stewart said. "We hated to lose a race like that, but hats off to Greg."
Earlier in the night, Stewart, in the No. 2 American Born Moonshine/Eneos Oil car, captured his first quick-time of the 2016 season when he clocked in at 13.913 seconds. In his heat race, Stewart finished second to Wilson, which created a preview for the feature later in the night.
Both drivers earned positions in the six-lap dash, but an unfortunate invert draw of six sent Wilson to the rear and placed Paul McMahan on the pole.
McMahan did not hold the top spot in the dash once the green flag dropped, as Daryn Pittman, who started in the fourth position, rocketed to the front of the field. Pittman, the most recent winner on the World of Outlaws tour at New Egypt Speedway on Tuesday night, claimed the dash victory which placed him on the pole position for the feature.
Even though Pittman started on the pole-position, he never led a lap as second-place starter Cole Duncan, in the Helms Construction/Motor City Auto Transport No. 22, took the lead when the green flag fell.
Duncan, a Lockbourne, Ohio -native, controlled the top spot for the opening four laps until Stewart, who started in the fourth position, utilized the outside line to build up enough momentum to capture the lead on lap five.
Stewart opened up a sizeable lead early in the race, and held off challenges on a mid-race caution on lap 12. Stewart appeared to be cruising to his third victory in 2016, but a caution with six laps left created late-race drama.
The Hercules Tire/Ohio Logistics No. W20 driven by Wilson restarted in the third position behind Duncan and Stewart. The top three remained glued nose-to-tail with little room separating the three drivers from the top spot.
Wilson, who found grip on the bottom of the track, powered around Duncan for second and set his sights on the leader with just a few laps remaining. When the white flag was displayed, Wilson had Stewart firmly in his crosshairs for a race-winning pass.
Exiting turn two, Wilson accelerated in front of Stewart and captured the lead with only two turns to go in the feature. Wilson held off Stewart and claimed his first checkered flag of his rookie campaign in 2016.
"It's a little surreal right at the moment...I'm just in shock," An emotional Wilson said. "I am racing with the best sprint car drivers in the world, night-in and night-out. We missed that show in New Egypt and looked like maybe we shouldn't even be out here, and then we turned it around tonight.
"That's dedicated work by our team and all of the people that are a part of this. I am truly grateful. Once again, if you're not a Wilson fan, thank you for spending your hard-earned money to be here tonight."
Even though Stewart was hoping for a win, a second-place finish was well deserved after a rough stretch of races through Indiana and Pennsylvania, in which the driver wrecked his primary car and only scored two top-tens in four races.
"It was good to have Justin [Marks] and Kyle [Larson] in the house, and to have a good finish for them," Stewart added. "There's a lot of Eneos Oil people back at the trailer too, so just a good solid finish for everybody at Larson Marks Racing. I love all these fans - it's always a joy to come here to Charlotte."
Completing an Ohioan domination of the podium, Duncan secured the third-place finish after leading laps early.
"We're just proud to be here, and thanks to all the fans for coming out," Duncan said. "We rolled across the scales with a flat tire - it was starting to go there at the end. It might've cost us one but I am happy for Greg, if anybody deserves to win one, it's him.
"We've been fast all year but just can't seem to find victory lane yet, but they got to be coming. We are pretty consistent and we keep putting the time and effort in. We'll go back to the drawing board, we don't have to change much but just try to figure out how to keep the tires on there."
Point's leader Brad Sweet finished in the 10th position, five positions behind Donny Schatz who is now just 41 markers behind Sweet for the top spot in the championship battle.
The World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series will march back into the Hoosier State for a Memorial Day showdown at Lawrenceburg (Ind.) Speedway on Monday, May 30. For more race information and ticket purchasing options, visit: www.WoOSprint.com/Lawrenceburg-Speedway.
