Hannagan Snares ASCS SOD Checkers at Eldora

Bob Buffenbarger, ROSSBURG, Ohio (May 30, 2010) — Randy Hannagan won an exciting battle with Kyle Sauder on the high banks of Eldora Speedway Sunday night to cap off a three day Ohio swing for the Engine Pro ASCS Sprints on Dirt presented by ARP.

As the feature got under way Kyle Sauder took to the high side and set sail to a several car length lead at the end of the initial lap and looked to have things well in hand. Lap five saw Sauder still in the lead with Randy Hannagan, Luke Hall, Cale Conley, Jerred Horstman, Tim Allison and Kent Wolters in hot pursuit on the fast well prepared track.

By the tenth lap Hannagan was closing on the lead car of Sauder and Cale Conley moved into third. On the 13th go round the 1x of Hannagan executed a successful slide job to steal the lead from the 1k of Sauder and Conley was now in the mix with Kent Wolters and Luke Hall not far back.

With three to go in the 20 lap main, Kyle Sauder was not quite yet finished and pulled even with Hannagan more than once as the pair raced side by side until on the final circuit Hannagan gained a two car margin for the win a crowd pleasing main event.

The four heat race winners were Jeff Williams, Hud Horton, Kyle Sauder and Randy Hannagan. Butch Schroeder and Dain Naida transferred from the first B main that saw Mike Dussel make extremely hard contact with the turn four wall. Dussel emerged uninjured. B main #2 Tim Hunter and Ron Blair moving the A feature.

J.R. Stewart Snares ASCS SOD Win at Waynesfield

Bob Buffenbarger, WAYNESFIELD, Ohio (May 29, 2010) – J.R. Stewart made the most of Tim Allison’s bad luck on lap twelve of the Engine Pro ASCS Sprints on Dirt presented by ARP main event and picked up the checkers at Waynesfield Raceway Park Saturday night with a win in the “Memorial Classic”.

At the drop of the green, pole sitter Allison was a rocket around the top of the track and quickly jumped out front with JR Stewart, Dustin Daggett, Mike Dunlap, Butch Schroeder and Ron Blair all in tow and not letting Allison out of sight. On the 6th circuit the 22D of Dennis Yokam spun in turn two with Robert Huisken unable to avoid him and both cars tumbled and brought out the red. Neither driver was injured.

By lap ten Stewart was closing on the leader Allison, but on the 12th lap coming out of turn four, a lapped car nearly spun in front of Allison and he was unable to avoid contact ending his race as the leader and now JR Stewart was in command. Allison did re-start at the tail.

On lap 16, it was Stewart, Daggett inching closer, Mike Dunlap with a strong run, Butch Schroeder, Ron Blair and Hud Horton. But on the 20th lap Dunlap and Blair tangled in turn two and brought out the final caution. When the green came back out Daggett almost pulled a slide job on Stewart but lost some momentum allowing Stewart to extend his lead. Butch Schroeder got around Daggett to take the runner up position with Daggett, Horton and Horstman rounding out the top five.

Heats for the 33 cars on hand were won by Dennis Yokam, Dain Naida, Hud Horton and Luke Hall. The B mains went to Ryan Grubaugh and Ben Rutan.

Luke Hall Hauls in ASCS SOD Win at Limaland

Bob Buffenbarger, Mike Campbell Photo

LIMA, Ohio (May 28, 2010) – Luke Hall led all 25 laps of the Engine Pro ASCS Sprints on Dirt presented by ARP main event at Limaland Motorsports Park Friday night in front of a large crowd on a summer-like evening to kick off the three day co-sanctioned swing through Ohio with NRA, but it wasn’t easy.

Starting from the front row, Hall gunned into the lead at the outset with fellow front row starter Jeff Williams falling in line second with Tim Hunter, J.R. Stewart and Kyle Sauder in tow with five laps in.

Butch Schroeder was quickly making up ground after starting 13th and by lap eleven had moved into fifth.

Lap eleven saw the red flag appear for a two car flip on the front stretch involving Tim Hunter and John Kettlewell. Both drivers were uninjured. When the green came back out the running order was Hall, Williams, Sauder, Stewart, Tim Allison on the prowl from 17th and Mike Dussel.

At the 20-lap mark things were getting dicey with several cars making a charge towards the front. Hall was still leading but Sauder, Stewart, Schroeder and Dussel had their sights on Hall’s No. 34. As the white appeared, Stewart was charging around the bottom side and coming out of turn four it looked as if he would make the pass, but Luke Hall was up to the task and held on for the victory.

Heats for the outstanding 42-car field were won by J.R. Stewart, Kent Wolters, Kyle Sauder and Tim Hunter. The first B main went to Tim Allison while Todd Heuerman captured the second B main.

The #26 of Rodney Hurst brought out the red in the second B after riding the turn four wall and turning over. He was ok.
