July 8th, 2006 - Doug Eck Wins Corry Lumber/True Value Super Late Model Feature
at Stateline Speedway
By Glenn Slocum
Busti, NY: Rusty
Briggs won the Corry Lumber / True Value Super Sportsman King of the Hill event
finishing first after nearly spinning in the final with John Boardman. Briggs
went on to win the Super Sportsman feature event for his second of the season.
Justin Carlson won his seventh E-Mod feature and his sixth in row in last weeks
rain delayed event. Chad Valone held on to his Budweiser Super Late Model King
of the Hill title after Doug Eck retired before the first lap was completed.
Glenn Slaney won his fifth feature in the Spectator feature from his sixteenth
starting spot. Doug Eck used the high groove to win his third of the season in
the Super Late Models passing race leader Darrell Bossard with two laps
remaining. Nathan Short led from the second lap of the caution strewn Outlaw
Cadet feature for his fourth win of the season. Quincy Turner ended Justin
Carlson’s win streak for his second of the season in the E-Mods. Stephanie
Hilyer led every lap of the Lady Challenger feature for her first win of the
season. Alex Froman won his first of the season in the first Super Challenger
feature and Cale Crocker won his second in the second Super Challenger feature.
Darrell Bossard and Mike Knight were in the first row
of the Super Late feature with Andy Kania and point leader Dick Barton in row
two. Bossard led Knight to the stripe to lead lap one. Lap two saw both Kania
and Barton pass Knight with Scott Gurdak and Doug Eck fighting for the fifth
spot. Eck controlled fourth then passed Barton for third using the outside
groove. Barton moved up the track after getting passed by Eck. Lap traffic
became a factor on lap thirteen bunching the leaders and Eck got into the back
of Kania just before the yellow flew for Wayne Mohawk in turn one. Kania retired
during the yellow. Bossard, Eck, Barton, Boozel and Gurdak were the restart
leaders. Bossard stayed in the middle groove with Eck up high for the next three
laps then Merle Terry brought out yellow number two. Barton temporarily regained
second for Eck on the restart then Eck came back one lap later. Dave Lyon spun
forcing John Volpe to stop for caution three with eighteen of the twenty-five
laps complete. Three more laps were completed then the yellow flew again for
Lyon. Bossard and Eck continued to fight for the lead until lap twenty-three
when Eck made the pass that won him the race. Bossard finished just ahead of
Barton for second.
Scooter Pangrazio and Justin Carlson were the front
row for the E-Mod makeup feature and Carlson quickly took control of the event
with Pangrazio second, Dennis Lunger third, Nathan Short fourth and Greg Johnson
fifth. Carlson was into lap traffic by lap five allowing Pangrazio to close. A
lap nine spin by Quincy Turner brought out the first caution of the event. With
a clear track after the restart Carlson set sail again as he and Pangrazio
pulled way from the rest of the field. Turner and Troy Carr tangled with fifteen
of the twenty laps complete for the second caution. Johnson was third after the
restart with Lunger back to fourth and Short still fifth. Carlson took the two
to go with a clear track in front of him and cruised through the final two laps
for his seventh win and his sixth in a row.
Aron Dascomb moved from fourth to first on the first
lap of the Spectator feature with Wade Watson second and Clarence Dickerson
third. Rick Thompson passed Dickerson on lap four for the number three spot.
Dascomb began lapping cars on lap six just before the yellow flew for Shayne
Erhard. Dascomb, Watson, Thompson, Jason Genco and Dickerson were the top five
for the lap seven restart. Glenn Slaney passed Dickerson on the restart for
fifth. Thompson had problems negotiating turn four on lap eight losing two spots
then on the next lap spun in nearly the same spot collecting Bill Reeves for the
second yellow of the race. Dascomb, Watson, Genco, Slaney and Dickerson were the
restart leaders. One lap after the restart it was three wide for second with
Slaney and Genco on either side of Watson. On lap twelve Dascomb lost the handle
in four losing the top spot and causing the third caution. Slaney came out on
top after Dascomb’s spin with Watson second followed by Genco, Dickerson and
Dave Johnson. Genco took second away from Watson on the restart then the yellow
flew for Reeves, Dascomb and Thompson in turn two. Johnson passed Watson for
third on the last lap as Slaney won his fifth feature.
John Boardman led the first lap of the Budweiser Super
Sportsman feature with Rusty Briggs second and Mike Kosinski third. The yellow
flew with four complete for Bryan Ester and Hank Francis. Boardman nearly spun
on the restart and when the dust settled Don McGuire, Andy Kania and Joe Buccola
were stopped on the exit of turn two for the second yellow. Boardman, Briggs,
Kosinski, Chad Carlson and Bob Van Arsdale were the restart leaders. Briggs came
out on top after the restart relegating Boardman to second. With three laps
remaining Ester lost a front wheel for the third yellow. Kosinski passed
Boardman for second on the restart but could not catch Briggs as he went on to
win his second of the season.
Paul Norman had a ten car length lead at the end of the
first lap then the caution flew for Bob Rohrer and Lester Shoff in turn one.
Norman, Nathan Short, Eugene Bevil, Troy Dorman and Mike Moore were the restart
leaders. Short passed Norman on the restart then one lap later so did Moore.
Steve Moynihan slowed for the second caution with three laps in. Short continued
to lead the parade for one more lap then Norman had problems in turn two for the
third caution. After the restart the race stayed green until lap ten when a spin
by Bevil caused caution number four. Short, Moore, Phil Knight, Brian Crandall
and Dorman were the top five. The yellow flew again with eleven laps complete
for Rohrer then for debris one lap later. Short cruised through the final laps
for his fourth win of the season.
A near spin by Brian Fardink on the first lap of the
E-Mod feature nearly stopped the event but Fardink was able to recover as Nathan
Short led the lap. With five laps complete Short was out in front by several car
lengths with Quincy Turner second. Spins by Dana Wellington and Brett Van
Guilder caused the first caution on lap six. Turner moved under Short on lap
eight to take the top spot then one lap later Wellington brought out the second
yellow. Turner, Short, Scooter Pangrazio, Justin Carlson and Ron Seeley were the
restart leaders. Carlson passed Pangrazio for third on lap eleven then one lap
later started to pressure Short for the second spot. Short was able to fend off
Carlson but Turner remained several car lengths ahead. Carlson came back with
one to go to grab the second spot as Turner won his second of the season.
Mark Crandall led the first lap of the first Super
Challenger feature giving way to Alex Froman on lap two. A spin by Greg Rockwell
slowed the race with three complete. Froman ran the rest of the race
unchallenged for his first of the season.
Tim Britt led the first three laps of the second Super
Challenger feature then a yellow flew for Brian Wilson. Ralph Patterson led
briefly on the restart then Cale Crocker grabbed the lead with point leader Ryan
Scott in tow. Crocker was able to hold off Scott for his second win.
