By Glenn Slocum
Saturday July 7th, 2012 Busti, NY: Mother Nature provided a hot and humid
summer night for the completion of the Applebee Motorsports UEMS E-Mod events
postponed from June 2nd and the Morgan Family Street Stock Special.
Jeremy Williams won his first Street Stock feature, the Morgan Family
Special, ending the 8 straight streak of point leader Chris Withers.
Randy Hall beat Butch Southwell to the line by .043 seconds to win the UEMS
E-Mod Invasion and the $5,000 dollar first place money. This race was one of the
best held all season with several different leaders and two passes for the lead
on the final lap.
Dutch Davies came from sixth to win the Super Late Model feature a race which
saw only one caution.
Rich Michael Jr. won the UEMS Non-Qualifiers event in a green to checkers
run.
Chris Ottaway made a mid race pass of Mike Moon then cruised to his first win
of the season in the Limited Late Model feature.
The Super Sportsman race was won by Dan Nocero Jr.
Richard Wojtowicz won the second in a caution filled Street Stock feature.
Chad
Bender won the Super Challenger feature.
The
top 15 Street Stocks lined up for the first feature of the evening with Kevin
Golden on the pole and Paul Nelson alongside. Jeremy Williams was in row two
with Steve Keith Jr. Golden led the first circuit then stumbled on lap two
giving Nelson the lead. Golden slowed before lap two was complete causing the
first caution. Nelson, Williams, Gary Fisher and Sam Courson were the restart
leaders. Williams won the dash to turn one on the restart to become the third
leader in as many laps. Nelson was second with Fisher third and Keith fourth.
Keith spun collecting Ken Lamp for the second caution with eight laps complete.
Williams, Nelson, Fisher and point leader Chris Withers were the leaders.
Withers grabbed third on the restart as Williams started to build a lead. A spin
by Doug Moore just in front of the leaders caused caution three with eight laps
remaining. Fisher had problems on the restart for caution four and required the
hook to leave the speedway along with Patrick Fielding. Withers visited the pits
during the yellow and rejoined the field at the end. Williams controlled the
restart and once more began to build a lead. Jeffery Keith spun for yellow five.
Williams, Nelson, Brian Crandall, Kyle Weilacher and Withers from last on the
last restart to fifth. Withers charge continued taking third with two laps
remaining. Withers was unable to pass Crandall or catch Williams. It was the
first win of the season for Williams breaking the 8 race win streak of Withers.
The
second feature of the evening was the Applebee Motorsports UEMS E-Mod Invasion
40 lap event. Kyle Innman and Dan Davies were in row one with John Woodward Jr.
and Brian Douglas in row two. Inman led the pack into turn one but before the
pack could complete the lap the yellow flew for Dave Shagla spun to a stop in
turn three. Inman led after the restart with Davies second and Douglas third.
Randy Hall and Brent Rhebergen were fourth and fifth. The yellow reappeared with
five laps complete for Justin Carlson. Just one more lap was complete as Shagla
slowed to a stop coming out of turn two for caution three. Six laps were
complete Inman, Douglas, Davies, Rhebergen and Hall were the leaders. Hall was
third at the end of lap seven then second at the end of lap eight. Dave Hess Jr.
made it into the top five with Butch Southwell in tow. Hall was now on Inman’s
bumper but Rhebergen joined the battle for second along with Hess. Inman
suffered mechanical problems allowing Rhebergen to take the lead just before the
half way point. Hess was second with Hall third. Rhebergen started showing smoke
on lap twenty three then just before the yellow flew for Douglas stopped at the
edge of the track in turn two Hess took the lead. Rhebergen was given back the
lead for the restart and Hess went high in turn two on the restart losing
several spots then stopped up against the wall in turn two for caution four.
Rhebergen, Hall, Southwell and Boardman were the leaders. Rhebergen continued to
smoke as Hall moved alongside but could not make the pass. Rhebergen’s
mechanical problems came to a head with twenty-six laps complete causing caution
five after Rhebergen did a half spin to a stop in turn three. Hall was the new
leader with Davies second and Southwell third. Southwell became the sole owner
of the second spot on the restart as Hall led by five car lengths. Ten laps
remained with Hall in the middle groove and Southwell trying the high side. Hall
started coming out high to slow the charge of Southwell and the two make contact
on lap thirty five and again on lap 36. Southwell would have to make his move
down low. Southwell made that move after the two to go signal but on the last
lap lost the lead to Hall in turn two but fought back through the final two
corners crossing the line in a photo finish with Hall in front by .043 of a
second. It was Halls second win of the season at Stateline and his second UEMS
victory.
Rob
Bates and John Haggerty brought out the yellow on the initial lap of the Crate
Late Model feature. Jason Genco and Bob Dorman were in row one with Justin
Tatlow and Justin Smith in row two. Just as the lap finished Breyton Santee
caused caution two. The next restart saw Bates and Smith spin for yellow number
three and just one lap had been completed. It was Genco, Dorman and Tatlow on
the restart. Tatlow was tagged by Carley in turn four for caution four with
three laps complete. Two more laps were complete when Craig Dean and Smith spun
in turn one for caution five. Twenty-two cars remained for the lap six restart.
Ward Schell stopped on the inside of turn three for caution six. Bruce Hordusky
Jr. was the next to have problems spinning to avoid several cars then stopping
alongside the speedway for caution seven. On the next restart Doug Ricotta ran
nose first into the turn three concrete for caution eight. Genco, Carley and
Dorman were the leaders. Brad Mesler and Dean caused caution nine on the
restart. The scorers started counting the yellow laps. Steve Dixon turned
sideways to stop for caution ten. The restart was single file with just four
laps remaining. Genco took the white and then the checkers leading every lap of
the event for his first win of the season.
A
lap one spin by Dick Barton slowed the Super Late Model feature with Bump Hedman
leading and Randy Lobb second. Doug Eck was third on the restart and passed
Hedman as lap three ended for the lead. David Scott was the next by Hedman and
Dutch Davies moved up for his shot at Hedman. Eck and Scott were running up
against the fence with Davies now third down low. Davies put Scott back to third
and caught Eck on lap ten to challenge for the lead. It was side-by-side on lap
eleven then Davies firmly in first on lap twelve Scott was third still up
against the fence with Lobb fourth and Dave Hess Jr. fifth. Davies started to
work lap traffic with ten laps remaining and Hess, Lobb and Scott were
contending for third. Lobb took the spot and Scott moved down to the low groove
with Hess remaining high. Davies stretched his lead even in lap traffic and with
two to go led Eck by nearly a straight away. Davies took the checkers with Eck a
distant second, Lobb third and Scott held off Hess for fourth.
The
UEMS Non-Qualifiers race was the next feature up and a lap three spin by Clint
Brady caused the first yellow as Rich Michael Jr. led followed by Jack Young and
Alex Froman. Chad Silleman and Vic Vena tangled as the green flew for caution
two. After the restart Michael was the leader with Froman second, Young third
and Steve Dixon fourth. Eric Pangrazio caused caution three with a spin in turn
four with seven laps complete. With ten of the twenty laps remaining Michael led
by half a straight with Young second followed by Froman then Dixon and Mike
McGee. McGee passed Dixon with five laps remaining for the fourth spot. Another
spin by Pangrazio caused caution four with three laps remaining. Michael ran the
final laps unchallenged for his first win of the season.
Pole
sitter Mike Moon led the first lap of the Limited Late Model feature. A lap two
spin by Chad Schauers brought out the first yellow. Moon just barely stayed in
front as Dustin Eckman and Chris Ottaway pressed him on both sides. Ottaway
moved to the high side and Moon followed by Eckman stayed low. Ottaway was able
to take the lead on the back stretch then lose it coming out of turn four.
Eckman moved to the bottom on lap five and hit turn three too hard spinning the
car for yellow two. Ottaway was the next to try the high side making the pass
stick as the yellow appeared for Chris Ward stopped in turn three. Ottaway,
Moon, Steve Moynihan, Steve Kania and Mike Moore were the leaders. Moynihan took
second on the restart and Kania followed him through for third as Moon fell to
fourth. A spin by Ward allowed the field to close with Ottaway for a last lap
dash to the finish. Ottaway won the dash and Kania lost to Moynihan by half a
car length at the line. It was the first win of the season for Ottaway.
A
lap two spin by Kelly Frederes caused the first caution in the Super Sportsman
