7.24.15 Results Columbus Equipment/Comfort Keepers of Tiffin Night

By Brian Liskai

ATTICA, Ohio – Usually when a driver joins a new team it takes awhile for all the elements to gel. Not so for Stuart Brubaker.

The Gibsonburg, Ohio driver took the lead from Dean Jacobs at the half-way point and went on to score his third straight win at Attica Raceway Park in the O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints on Columbus Equipment/Comfort Keepers Night.

Brubaker, a former 305 sprint track champion, joined the Burmeister Racing Team over the winter after having fielded his own 410 sprint team the past couple of years. And this combination is proving to be a force to be reckoned with. Not only has Brubaker won three straight, but he is in contention to win the $10,000 Attica point championship as he came into the night third in the standings only 16 points behind Jacobs.

And, he gained more valuable points in the hunt for the $10,000 Kistler Racing Products Fremont Attica Sprint Title (FAST) Championship Series Presented by KS Sales and Service. At the beginning of the night he was fifth in the FAST Standings.

“This is awesome. When Byron (Reed) got past me I was like ‘MAN this ain’t good…he’s pretty fast.’ I stuck the wing back there on that yellow and this thing just stuck and I kept driving the wheels off it,” said Brubaker of his Schiets Tender Touch Car Wash, Dave Story Equipment; Stephen P. Mapus Productive Tools, Randy Beeker Excavating, Adkins Fence and Sanitation, Huffman Tools, Kistler Racing Products, Kistler Engines backed machine.
“I got through traffic well. I cleared one down in one and two around the top and I figured someone was going to get me…I spun the wheels in all the dust up there. Thanks to all my team….Burmeister Racing is amazing,” continued Brubaker of his Meggit Sandblasting, Advantage Ford, Schiets Motorsports, Burmeister Plowing backed #16.

Wooster, Ohio’s “Hammer Down” Doug Drown was going to quit racing a year ago. He was struggling and wasn’t having fun. Then a phone call from Leroy Hall to drive his late model along with the regular driver Charlie Duncan agreeing to step aside, turned his career around. He led all 25 laps to record his fifth win of the season in the Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Models at Attica.

“The car has been awesome. I can’t complain. The guys are doing a great job. I was a little nervous…everyone thinks it’s easy but it’s not. We’re still guessing like everybody else. I just picked the center of the race track because it was the brownest since the sprints were either below it or above it,” said Drown beside his Hall’s Auto Sales, Malcuit Racing Engines, Nationwide Vehicle Protection, Wooster Glass, Kar Konnections backed #240.

“This is the best season of my career. It’s crazy to think I was going to quit. Leroy Hall and Charlie Duncan gave me this opportunity and it’s definitely more fun. I know winning is fun but this is a great group too. I have the right people around me and when you have good people around you good things happen,” added Drown.

Fremont’s Bobby Clark came into the night with four wins on the season – all coming at Fremont Speedway in the 305 sprint division. He was winless at Attica. But that turned around Friday in the Foster’s Auto Body 305 Sprints as he took the lead from Ricky Peterson on lap 11 and then held off Jordan Ryan for the victory, the 17th of his career in the division at Attica.

For Clark, the win keeps him atop the JLH General Contractor 305 FAST Championship Series Presented by Engine Pro points. He also closed the gap in the Attica point standings as he came into the night in third behind Ryan and Jamie Miller.

“Last year was just the opposite…we’d win here and not at Fremont. This is actually the car we won here last year with. We made a car swap again and it turned out good. I saw Jordan (Ryan) got second and I knew I had to protect the bottom. Hat’s off to my crew. We weren’t so good in the heat and they just kept tweaking on it,” said Clark of his Fremont Fence, Schiets Motorsports, Kistler Engines, Kear’s Speed Shop, B&L Plumbing, Nagy Equipment Sales, Miller Rigging, Shelluke’s Bar, Willey’s Towing, Big D’s Pizza, Fremont Auto Parts backed #8.

Woodville’s Daniel Roepke Jr. hasn’t raced a whole lot this year, but he looked in midseason form in the Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks. He used a lap truck to hold back leader Brian Arnold and drove around on the last lap for his 9th career Attica win.

“Most of the time you just have to be patient and see what happens at the end. This time it worked out for us. I was behind Matt (Foos, early race leader) and saw lots of smoke coming and I was waiting for that to let go. And then I saw that lapped truck down there and new he would get caught up with Arnold so I went to the outside and it worked out,” said Roepke.

The 30-lap 410 sprint feature got off to a rocky start. While working to get lined up for the race, defending track champion Caleb Griffith got into the turn three cushion and flipped. He was okay but done for the night.

Rob Chaney and Dean Jacobs would bring the field to green but before a lap could be scored Tyler Gunn would spin. On the ensuing green, Jacobs – who has a pair of wins at Attica this season – grabbed the lead over Chaney, Craig Mintz, Cap Henry, Bryan Lay, Brubaker, Byron Reed and Jordan Ryan.

A yellow on lap two for Brock Martin kept the field close to Jacobs. When the green flew so did Jacobs, opening up a six car length lead while Chaney bobbled on the cushion in turn four, moving Mintz and Henry to second and third.
Meanwhile, Brubaker, who was originally scheduled to start 10th but rolled off eighth because a scratch and the early crash, was on the move, taking fourth from Chaney on lap five. Jacobs rocketed into lapped traffic by the seventh circuit as he led Mintz, Henry, Brubaker, Chaney, Reed, Lay, Ryan and Chris Andrews.

Henry would spin in turn two on lap eight as he was battling Mintz. On the ensuing restart Brubaker would drive around Mintz into second with Reed rolling into fourth. Reed would drive around Mintz for third on lap 11 and closed on Jacobs and Brubaker.

At the half-way point, Brubaker drove low in turns three and four and rocketed into the lead. Two laps later as the leaders raced into heavy lapped traffic, Reed would take second from Jacobs.

With 10 laps to go Brubaker was picking his way through the lapped cars with Reed, Jacobs, Mintz, Lay, Chaney and a resurgent Gunn giving chase. Every time Reed would cut into Brubaker’s advantage the leader would clear traffic and pull away. A very good battle for third was underway between Jacobs and Mintz.

Brubaker hit his marks perfectly and drove to the win over Reed, Jacobs, Mintz and Lay.

In the 25-lap late model feature, Markham and Drown would bring the field to green with Drown gaining the upper hand over Markham, Matt Irey, Josh Haynes, Mike Bores, Chris Keller and Larry Kingseed. Drown would pull away slightly as a tremendous battle ensued for second involving Markham, Haynes and Irey.

As Drown’s lead grew to six car lengths, Haynes would take second on lap four only to see Markham retake the spot a lap later. Action ground to a half on lap five when John Bores flipped over the banking in turn one. He was not injured.

When the green flew Drown pulled away again with Markham, Haynes, Irey, Mike Bores, a closing Rocky Owens, Keller, Devin Shiels and Kingseed in tow. Irey would take third on lap nine just before the caution flew for a Mike Bores spin.
When the green would reappear Drown could not shake Markham and Irey as Owens moved into fourth. Once Drown got his momentum back he would pull away as Markham now had his hands full with Irey and Owens while Haynes battled with Shiels and Keller.

The final caution would fly on lap 17 for a Nate Potts spin with the restart order Drown, Markham, Irey, Owens, Haynes, Keller, Shiels and a closing Rusty Schlenk. Irey would grab second on lap 18 and started to close on Drown. Markham would rally to challenge Irey with three laps to go.

Drown would drive the middle of the track to perfection to take the win over Irey, Markham, Owens and Keller.
In the 25 lap 305 sprint feature, Jason Keckler and Ricky Peterson paced the field with Peterson taking the lead. Fourth starter Clark would jump into second on lap three, bringing Jordan Ryan to third. Jamie Miller – who had won the last two features at Attica – would climb into fourth on lap four. The car on the move was Paul Weaver who drove into sixth from his 10th starting spot in just six laps.

The caution would fly on lap eight for a Kelsey Ivy spin with the running order Peterson, Clark, Ryan, Miller, Weaver, Seth Schneider, Keckler, Dan McCarron, Kyle Capodice and Dustin Stroup.

On the restart both Clark and Ryan pressured Peterson and Clark would drive to the outside of turn four on lap 11 to take the lead with the caution soon flying for a Frank Neill spin. On the restart Ryan would drive into second and closed on Clark. A lap later and Weaver drove around Peterson into third and closed quickly on Ryan.

Steve Rando would spin on lap 17 for the feature’s final caution. On the restart it was a three car battle with Clark, Ryan and Weaver pulling away from Peterson, Stroup, Schneider and Dustin Dinan. Once the laps started to tick off, Clark would pull away with Ryan edging away from Weaver.

Clark would drive to the win over Ryan, Weaver, Stroup and Peterson.

In a non-stop 15 lap dirt truck feature, Dana Fry and Brandon Leighton brought the field to green. Leighton would grab the slim lead over Matt Foos, Frey, Brian Arnold and Roepke. The top five would put on a whale of a show with Foos taking the lead by a bumper on lap four.

With six laps in the running order was Foos, Leighton, a closing Arnold, Roepke, Frey and Eric Devanna. Arnold would take second on lap seven and immediately closed on Foos.

By lap 9 it was a three truck battle involving Foos, Arnold and Roepke. That battle would continue until Foos’ motor went up in flames with three laps to go and he ducked into the pits. Not the leader was Arnold over Roepke, Leighton, Frey and Devanna.

After taking the white flag, Arnold, who was on the bottom of the track, would run up on a lapped truck and Roepke used the opportunity pounce and drove to the outside to take the lead.

Roepke would edge Arnold for the win with Leighton, Frey and Devanna rounding out the top five.

Attica will be back in action Friday, July 31st on Smith Family Foods/Culy Contracting Night. It will be a Kistler Racing Products FAST point night for the 410 sprints with the ALMS Late Models also in action while the 305 sprints and dirt trucks are also on the racing card.

7.10.15 Results Summit Racing Equipment / Central Ohio Farmers Night

By Brian Liskai

ATTICA, Ohio – It took awhile, but Stuart Brubaker and the Burmeister Racing Team are really gelling. The Gibsonburg, Ohio driver led all 30 laps to claim his second straight 410 sprint feature win at Attica Raceway Park on Summit Racing Equipment/Central Ohio Farmers Night Friday.

And, this late season surge could have Brubaker – a former Attica 305 track champion – contending for that coveted $10,000 Attica title in the O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints. He came into the night third in the track’s point standings, just 25 back of Dean Jacobs who finished fourth Friday.

Brubaker’s win also garnered him valuable points in the $10,000-to-win Kistler Racing Products Fremont Attica Sprint Title (FAST) Championship Series Presented by KS Sales and Service. He came into the night’s competition sitting sixth in the FAST standings.

The only caution of the race – on lap 16 – kept Brubaker out of lapped traffic and made his second career Attica win in the O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints a little less stressful.

“That caution helped me a bunch. I kept seeing – I think it was Cap (Henry) at that time, his nose wing under me. I was like ‘man I don’t know good I am, I’m spinning the tires like crazy coming off of two.’ Mikey (Sommers, crew chief) said don’t give up this time. So I kept into it and changed my line down here (turns one and two) a little bit. I don’t know if Chris (Andrews) got there a little bit at the end…I started to see a little green out of the corner of my eye,” said Brubaker beside his Schiets Tender Touch Car Wash, Dave Story Equipment; Stephen P. Mapus Productive Tools, Randy Beeker Excavating, Adkins Fence and Sanitation, Huffman Tools, Kistler Racing Products, Kistler Engines backed machine.

“This is just unbelievable. Last week we didn’t have my car owners here and this week we have Sharon, Rollie and Mikey…we couldn’t do it without these guys,” continued Brubaker of his Meggit Sandblasting, Advantage Ford, Schiets Motorsports, Burmeister Plowing backed #16.

“I was telling Mikey if we keep working at it and working at it hopefully when some of these guys start falling off a little bit we’ll start picking up and the points will take care of themselves. We’re running pretty well right now. Hats off to my team right now…they are awesome,” concluded Brubaker.

In a thrilling Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Model feature that saw five lead changes including a last lap pass, “Hammer Down” Doug Drown from Wooster, Ohio, edged – by a bumper – Rocky Owens for his fourth win of the season at Attica.

“He (Owens) found that line way quicker than I did. Hats off to those guys…he was really really good. For us to go around him…I didn’t know if we had enough laps. I kept looking over and I’m thinking ‘I have to figure out a way to get to him quick.’ I didn’t want to pinch him in there too hard cause I know he wanted the win just as bad,” said Drown beside his Hall’s Auto Sales, Malcuit Racing Engines, Nationwide Vehicle Protection, Wooster Glass, Kar Konnections backed #240.

“It was getting after it and trying not to make a mistake that last lap and make sure I squeezed the throttle and not hammer it down like I normally do. Car has been phenomenal. My crew, my dad, Danny, Dave Miller, Roy Hall providing everything we need…everybody that helps me out,” added Drown.

Fremont, Ohio’s Jamie Miller would lead all 25 laps of the Foster’s Auto Body 305 Sprints for his second straight win and third of the season. However, it wasn’t easy for the former track champion as Kyle Capodice and then a late race challenge from Paul Weaver made him earn his 12th career Attica win.

“They told me not to run the top down here (turns one and two) but it felt pretty good to me. I had the preferred line in three and four and I was just trying to hold my own at the other end,” said Miller beside his Advanced Industrial Services, Fostoria Mod Shop, Quarterback Transportation, Western Lake Erie Insulation Industry, Pioneer Quick Lube, Scott’s Lawn Care and Snow Removal backed #39.

“We’re on a really great roll right now. I can’t thank Tim (Merrill) and his wife his enough and all the sponsors,” added Miller.

Henry and Brubaker would bring the field to green for the 30-lap 410 sprint car feature with Brubaker using the high line to grab the lead. Henry, Chad Kemenah, Andrews, Caleb Armstrong, Duane Zablocki, Craig Mintz, Dean Jacobs and Byron Reed gave chance.

While Brubaker blasted away at the cushion, pulling away slightly, Henry and Kemenah battled for second. Kemenah would take the runner-up spot on lap six only to jump the cushion in turns one and two on lap nine, losing several spots.

The leaders hit lapped traffic by the ninth circuit with Brubaker leading Henry, Andrews, Zablocki, Mintz and Jacobs. Brubaker’s lead began to evaporate by lap 13 as the leaders encountered heavy lapped traffic. Henry and Andres were locked in a tremendous battle for second with Mintz moving into fourth followed by Zablocki, Jacobs, Reed and Kemenah. Cale Thomas would tangle with the lapped machine of Bruce White on lap 16, bringing out the feature’s only caution.

Now with a clear track, Brubaker would once again drive to the cushion and pull away as Andrews drove around Henry for second on lap 17. Behind the lead trio, a great race was underway for fourth involving Mintz, Jacobs and Reed. Jacobs would take the fourth spot on lap 21.

With seven laps to go, Andrews began chipping away at Brubaker’s lead while Henry, Jacobs, Mintz, Reed, Zablocki, Nate Dussel and D.J. Foos gave chase. Andrews got to within a car length of Brubaker, who then picked up the pace and drove to the win. Andrews, Henry, Jacobs and Mintz would round out the top five.

In the 25-lap late model feature, George Lee and Ken Hahn comprised the front row, but a caution on the initial start for debris wiped out a tremendous jump by third starter Dusty Moore. On the second green, Lee would take the lead over Moore, Mike Bores, Hahn, Dave Hornikel, Matt Irey, Chris Keller, Drown, Cody Scott and Ryan Markham.

Just as Moore drove under Lee on lap two another caution for debris slowed the race. On the restart Lee, Moore and Bores battled hard for the lead with Hornikel, Hahn, Irey and Keller in pursuit.

The Lee, Moore, Bores battle continued over the next hand full of laps before Moore grabbed the lead on lap six with Bores moving into second a lap later and Hornikel taking third by lap eight. Behind that trio a war was being waged for fourth involving lee, Keller, Drown and 12th place starter Rocky Owens.

The action would halt on lap 11 as Larry Kingseed coasted to a stop on the front stretch. The restart order was Moore, Bores, Hornikel, Owens, Lee, Drown and Keller. On lap 14 Bores slid under Moore for the lead with Owens following suit. Owens would drive to Bores’ outside on lap 15 but the pass was negated for another Kingseed caution.

Bores would get a tremendous restart and pulled away slightly from Owens who had his hands full with Drown with Hornikel, Keller, Markham and Moore battling for fourth. Owens would drive into the lea don lap 17 and after a two lap battle; Drown took second from Bores with Hornikel comfortably in fourth while Keller, Markham, Moore and Irey put on a show for fifth.

With three laps to go Drown was sticking the nose of his car under Owens and the two continued side-by-side racing to the final corner of the last lap. Drown would get a great fun off of turn four and edged Owens by a bumper for the win, his only lead the last five feet of the race.

Owens, Bores, Hornikel and Keller would round out the top five.

Frank Neill and Miller paced the field for the 25 lap 305 sprint feature with Miller blasting into the lead as fourth starter Capodice hugged the bottom to take second over Steve Rando, Neill, Bobby Clark, Jordan Ryan, Dustin Dinan and Paul Weaver.

While Miller, Capodice and Rando stayed close, Clark and Ryan moved into fourth and fifth on lap two while behind them Dinan, Weaver, Neill and John Ivy battled. Clark would grab third on lap six. By the time the leaders caught the back of the field on lap 11, the running order was Miller, Capodice, Clark, Rando, Ryan, Weaver, Ivy, Brandon Moore, Seth Schneider, Tyler Street, Dan McCarron, Jason Keckler and Kelsey Ivy.

The event’s only caution came on lap 13 when Rando’s run came to an end with a flat tire. On the restart Miller blasted to the cushion but Capodice continually pulled beside him utilizing the bottom line. Clark was locked in a battle for third with Weaver and Ryan. With 10 laps to go it was Miller holding a slight advantage over Capodice with Weaver, Ryan and Clark continuing their battle for third.

Weaver would take second on lap 19 and started to close on Miller with Capodice, Ryan, Clark, Moore, Schneider and Ivy in pursuit. Miller was able to hit his marks the last six laps to take the win with Weaver, Capodice, Ryan and Clark rounding out the top five.
