Henry Holds On For Attica Aprint Win; Missler Earns 1st Late Model Victory, Weaver Survives For 305 Sprint Win; Foos Tames Trucks

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Cap Henry held off Greg Wilson for his second straight win in the O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints at Attica Raceway Park Friday on WNWO NBC 24/Culy Contracting Night. The Bellevue, Ohio driver had to not only fight Wilson for the win, but a car that lost its brakes the last hand full of laps.

“I really have to give a lot of credit to Wilson…he really could have done it (last lap slider) a lot worse and he raced us clean. He gets as much credit as we do. He could have made that real ugly and I couldn’t stop if I wanted to,” said Henry beside his Genzman Racing/Ludwig Propane/Level Performance/Crown Battery/Automatic Fire Protection/Jet Express/Handy Grafix/Kear’s Speed Shop backed machine.

“I can’t thank this Genzman team enough. They’ve been working so hard. It’s really making me look good now and I’m loving it. I made them look bad early and we’re making up for it now. The caution helped. I was hoping someone would do something because I really didn’t like negotiating the traffic,” added Henry who executed a great restart with 10 laps to go. “I’ve been working on my restarts and it helped tonight.”

In Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Model feature, five time and defending track champion Ryan Missler finally slammed that gorilla off his back and held off Jeff Babcock for his first win of the season. The victory was the 11th of Missler’s career at Attica.

“My four-year-old daughter drew me a number one last week and I didn’t do so good. So she drew me a one this week and I figured I’d better do something with it,” said Missler beside his York Fabrication/Terry McConnell Excavating/Taze DJ Service/King Industrial Supply/Quality Welding/Cenpeco Lubricants/Keizer Wheels backed machine.

“I knew there wasn’t much to grab hold of coming off four on the bottom. So I figured I’d have the momentum if I didn’t screw up,” added Missler. “I have to thank everyone who helps me…Jerry Huff at York Fabrication, my Uncle Jim, my wife and daughters and my in-laws…everybody that helps. This is great. I’d like to put a little win streak going here,” added Missler of his Gordon Lumber/SCS Gearbox/NAPA of Attica/TNT Farms/Twin Lakes Golf Course/ Pizza House West/Bellevue Beverage Center sponsored #50Y.

The Foster Auto Body 305 Sprint feature was a dandy with Dean Jacobs leading the first 20 laps. But, as he raced into lapped traffic, he made contact with Paul Weaver as they battled for the lead with Jacobs sustaining front end damage. Weaver would hold off T.J. Michael the final four laps to secure his third victory of the season at Attica. The win is the 32nd of Weaver’s career in the 305 sprint division at the track.

“I thought he (Jacobs) had a bad deal coming off the corner so I just drove it in there. I thought I had him clear…I feel bad about that. I don’t want to run Dean like that…he’s a clean driver,” said Weaver beside his Hampshire Engines/Buckeye Mobile Coatings/Fostoria Mod Shop/Weaver Performance Karts and Parts/M&L Excavating/Sunny Farms Land Fill/Tender Touch Car Wash backed #1w.

“I want to thank Jamie Miller for helping me and Bob Hampshire and Dave Rice for putting the motor together and making it run good,” added Weaver.

After taking a wild ride in his 305 sprint, Matt Foos would recover to hold off Shawn Valenti and Kent Brewer in the Fremont Fence Dirt Truck feature to score his second win of the season at Attica.

“You have to be absolutely on your ‘A game’ with those guys. They have had their stuff together and I’ve been scratching my head all week and finally…here we are. The thing was a rocket. No flaw whatsoever,” said Foos beside his Fremont Fence/M&L Excavating/Level Performance/Pit Stop Convenience Stores/Automatic Fire Protection/Buckshot Farms backed #2.

O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints – Cap Henry #53
Henry and Broc Martin would bring the field to green for the 30-lap 410 sprint feature but before a lap could be completed Cole Duncan would spin in turn two. When the race resumed Henry bolted into the lead over Martin, Greg Wilson, Andrew Palker, Chris Andrews and Rob Chaney. Wilson would take second on lap two and quickly closed on Henry.

Henry took note of Wilson charging to his outside in turns three and four and quickly moved to that high line and was able to pull away slightly. However, Caleb Helms and Jody Keegan would tangle on lap eight to bring out the caution.

Henry would get a tremendous restart to pull away from Wilson with Martin, Andrews, Caleb Griffith, Palker and Chaney in tow. Andrews would slide in front of Martin for third on lap 10. The leaders would find lapped traffic at the half-way point which allowed Wilson and Andrews to close on Henry with Griffith, Chaney and Martin in pursuit.

Just as things were getting very interesting between Henry, Wilson and Andrews as they raced through traffic, Craig Mintz would stop with a flat left rear tire on lap 20. Now with a clear track, Henry would execute another great restart to pull away as Wilson had his hands full with Andrews and Chaney.

With five laps to go, Wilson began eating into Henry’s lead with Andrews, Chaney, Byron Reed, Griffith and Martin in tow. As the white flag flew, Wilson was right on Henry’s rear bumper. As they entered the final two turns Wilson tried to drive under Henry, but had to pull up or the two would have tangled. Henry was able to drive off the high line of turn four to take the win with Wilson, Andrews, Chaney and Reed rounding out the top five.

Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Models – Ryan Missler #50Y
Missler and Babcock would set the pace for the 25-lap late model feature with Missler gaining the advantage. Mike Bores, Cody Scott, Garrett Krummert, Matt Irey and John Bores would give chase. Krummert would take third on lap three with the caution flying for a Steve Sabo spin on lap four.

On the restart Krummert would drive around Babcock for second and started to close on Missler. It was a fantastic three car battle for the lead between Missler, Krummert and Babcock until the caution flew on lap 11 for a Bobby Michaels spin. When the green reappeared the three car battle continued.

But, Krummert would slide off the high side of turns one and two on lap 16 to bring out the caution. Now Missler had to deal with Babcock with Irey, Mike Bores, Scott and John Bores in pursuit. With four laps to go Babcock was applying a lot of pressure to Missler with Irey, Mike Bores, Scott and Jim Gingery in tow.

On the last lap Babcock would drive under Missler in the final two corners but Missler would maintain his momentum and take the win over Babcock, Irey, Mike Bores and Gingery.

Foster Auto Body 305 Sprints – Paul Weaver #1W
In the 25-lap 305 sprint feature, Dean Jacobs and Steve Rando paced the field with Jacobs gaining the advantage over Rando, T.J. Michael, Seth Schneider, Tyler Gunn and Nate Dussel. The car on the move was eighth place starter Paul Weaver. He rocketed into fourth by lap two and took third a circuit later.

Luke Griffith would bring out the caution on lap eight with Jacobs leading Rando, Weaver, Gunn, Michael, Dussel and Schneider. Weaver would drive into the runner-up spot on lap 10. With 10 laps to go, Weaver had taken a big bite out of Jacobs’ lead as Rando slid off the track allowing Michael, Gunn, Dussel and Schneider to go by.

The leaders would race into traffic with five laps to go and as they exited turn four Weaver tried to drive under Jacobs with Michael on the very bottom and lapped cars in between. Contact was made by Jacobs, Weaver and Michael with Jacobs sliding into the infield with front end damage.

On the restart Weaver could not shake Michael with Dussel joining the fray with Gunn, Jordan Ryan and Bobby Clark in pursuit. Weaver was able to drive to the victory over Michael, Dussel, Ryan and Clark.

Image
Fremont Fence Company Dirt Trucks – Matt Foos #2
Art Ball and Foos would bring the field to green for the 15-lap dirt truck feature with Foos gaining the advantage over Ball and Brad Keckler. With just two laps recorded, it was a tremendous four truck battle up front between Foos, Ball, Shawn Valenti and Kent Brewer. Brewer would take second on lap three with Valenti racing to his inside.

With just five laps recorded Foos, Brewer and Valenti were racing three wide for the lead when the caution flew on lap six for a Keith Sorg spin. When the green reappeared so did the three truck battle for the lead. While Foos never lost the lead, Brewer and Valenti traded the runner-up spot lap after lap after lap.

Foos would drive a flawless race the rest of the way for the win with Valenti holding off Brewer for second with Dan Roepke Jr. and Kyle Cline rounding out the top five.

Double points are on the line for all four divisions next Saturday, Aug. 23 on Kistler Racing Products Presents the Mark Keegan Classic Championship Night.

Henry Gets First Attica FAST Win; Babcock Takes Late Model Point Lead With 5th Win; Weaver Claims FAST 305 Win; Brewer Wins Second Truck Feature

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Cap Henry has watched victory slip through his fingers several times over the years at Attica Raceway Park. On Friday night the Bellevue, Ohio driver wasn’t to be denied as he drove to his first ever 410 sprint victory at the track on Edward Jones of Clyde Night.

When early leader Rob Chaney packed a right rear wheel full of mud, Brandon Martin would inherit the lead in the O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprint feature. But, Henry, who started fifth, drove the bottom groove to perfection and took the lead on lap six and went on take the win aboard the Genzman Racing #53.

“It felt like a 50-lapper there with five to go. I was holding my breath the last five laps. Man I can’t thank this Genzman team enough. Marilyn, Guy, Jamie…they’ve been working so hard for me. I really screwed up some stuff of theirs during speedweek and Marilyn stuck with me and I can’t thank her enough,” said Henry beside the Ludwig Propane/Level Performance/Crown Battery/Automatic Fire Protection/Jet Express/Handy Grafix/Kear’s Speed Shop/Sonny’s Machine Shop backed sprint car.

“Me and Guy (Myers, crew chief) have been working really hard at it. Last week we were really terrible so I guess we made up for it this week. There’s been a lot of closes and maybes here and to finally be able to check out and get rolling is pretty awesome,” added Henry.

It was the final Kistler Racing Products FAST (Fremont Attica Sprint Title) Championship Series event at Attica for 2014. Byron Reed would cut Chris Andrews’ point lead in half with a strong third place finish as the series heads to Fremont Speedway.

In the Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Models, Jeff Babcock would take the lead from Mike Bores on lap 11 and drove to his fifth win of the season. Babcock’s 9th career Attica win would also vault him into the track’s point lead.

“We’ve gone back to basics and what we know how to do and that’s helped things out a lot. I actually thought the top was going to be faster tonight but I got rolling on the bottom so I thought I’d just better keep her there. It’s sometimes nice when you can start behind guys and find the fast lane verses starting on the front row and finding out too late,” said Babcock beside his Best Performance Motorsports/Bulk Material Lift.com/Professional Drywall/Craig Miller Trucking backed #1.

When Nate Dussel slipped off the track on the back stretch on lap three, Paul Weaver drove into the lead of the Foster’s Auto Body 305 Sprint feature. Then Weaver narrowly avoided catastrophe with five laps to go as he made hard contact with a lapped car. Weaver would hold off Dussel to take his second win of the season and the 31st of his career at Attica.

“This is the eighth race on that right rear tire. I got into that lapped car and I thought I had a tire going down. The car got real loose the last two laps. I swear they moved the tires in about five feet. The track wasn’t even run in down there where the tires were. If that’s what they want to do I’ll play huggy pole but not every week,” said Weaver beside his Hampshire Engines/Buckeye Mobile Coatings/Fostoria Mod Shop/Weaver Performance Karts and Parts/M&L Excavating/Tender Touch Car Wash/Sunny Farms Landfill backed #1w.

“I have to thank Jamie (Miller) and my wife (Andrea) for setting the car up and Bob Hampshire and Dave Rice and all my sponsors…couldn’t do this without them,” added Weaver.

It was also the last point night for the JLH General Contractor FAST Championship Series for the 305 sprints and with his second place finish Nate Dussel took the point lead by just five markers over John Ivy as that series heads to Fremont Speedway.

For the second straight week the Fremont Fence Dirt Truck feature was a dandy. For the entire 15 laps Kent Brewer, Dan Roepke Jr., Matt Foos and John Ivy battled for the lead. Then, coming to the checkers a lapped truck got side ways in front of the leaders and everyone scrambled trying not to wreck. When the dust settled, Brewer had led every lap to score his second win of the season and the second of his career at Attica.

“The wall and that truck got close on that last lap. Luck was on our side again tonight. It was close the last couple of laps. I heard someone and I thought I’d better nail it and get it going. This is a lot of fun. I have to thank all the guys who help on this thing. Rob Kramer, my wife…if it wasn’t for her helping every week we wouldn’t make it here. I have to thank all my family….my brothers and sisters…everyone that comes to help,” said Brewer of his Fremont Fence/Kent’s Transmissions/Hummel Auto Service backed #8kb.

O’Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints – Cap Henry #53
Troy Kingan and Rob Chaney would bring the field to the green for the 30-lap 410 sprint feature. Chaney would bolt into the lead over Brandon Martin, Henry, Chris Andrews, Stuart Williams and Kingan. With two laps in Chaney had built up a sizeable lead over Martin, Henry, Andrews, Williams, Byron Reed and Dean Jacobs.

Action would grind to a halt on lap three as Jody Keegan, Brian Nuckles and Kingan tangled with Keegan ending up on his side. During the red flag, Chaney would push to the work area with a right rear wheel packed with mud. On the restart Andrew Palker would hit the cone on the front stretch bringing out the yellow and moving him back two positions.

When the green flew again Martin lead Henry, Andrews, Reed and Jacobs. Henry would race to the outside of Martin on lap six to take the lead. Henry pulled away as the leaders raced into lapped traffic by lap 10 with Martin in second while Reed got by Andrews for third as Jacobs and Craig Mintz closed.

At the half-way point Henry’s lead was beginning to evaporate as he worked through traffic allowing Martin to close with Reed, Jacobs, Mintz, Andrews and Travis Philo in pursuit. Chaney would stop on the track on lap 17 to bring out the final caution of the race. With a clear track on the restart Henry would pull away from Martin ad he had his hands full with Reed and Jacobs. Jacobs would move into third on lap 19 and closed quickly on Martin, taking the runner-up spot on lap 20.

Things got a little more interesting with four laps to go when Henry was mired in heavy lapped traffic with Jacobs closing while Reed, Mintz, Martin, Andrews and Philo giving chase. Henry would be patient in traffic and drove to the win over Jacobs, Reed, Mintz and Martin.

Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Models – Jeff Babcock $1
In the 25-lap late model feature Ryan Missler and Mike Bores would pace the field to the green with Bores gaining the advantage. With five laps in Bores would lead Missler, Babcock, Devin Shiels, Ken Hahn, Ryan Markham, John Bores and Rusty Schlenk. Babcock would drive into third on lap six and took second from Missler the next circuit and quickly closed on Mike Bores.

As the leaders raced into heavy lapped traffic on lap 11, Babcock would drive low out of turn two to take the lead. The caution would fly on lap 13 for a stalled Schlenk with the running order Babcock, Mike Bores, Shiels, Missler, Markham and Hahn. When the green flew so did Babcock, driving the bottom groove as Bores battled with Shiels for second.

The final caution would fly on lap 21 for a Bobby Michaels spin. Again on the restart Babcock drove away from Mike Bores who lost second to Shiels on the next lap.

Babcock would drive to the win with Bores getting back by Shiels on the white flag lap to finish second. Shiels, Markham and Hahn would round out the top five.

Foster Auto Body 305 Sprints – Paul Weaver #1W
Weaver and Nate Dussel would bring the field to the green for the 25-lap 305 sprint feature that would go non-stop. Dussel shot into the lead over Weaver, Jason Keckler, Steve Rando, Seth Schneider, Dan McCarron, Jordan Ryan and John Ivy. Dussel would pull away slightly as Weaver had his hands full with Keckler.

Disaster struck for Dussel on lap four when he drove off the track on the back stretch allowing Weaver to sneak under for the lead. Weaver would catch heavy lapped traffic by the ninth lap and Dussel, Keckler, Rando, Ryan and Ivy would close. Ryan would drive into fourth on lap 10 and would take third by lap 15 as Weaver continued to lead Dussel.

With five laps to go Weaver made hard contact with the lapped car of Ricky Peterson and Dussel closed right on his rear bumper with Ryan, Keckler, Ivy, Rando and Schneider giving chase. As the white flag appeared, Dussel hoped Weaver would make a mistake….he didn’t and held on to take the win over Dussel, Ryan, Keckler and Ivy.

Image
Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks – Kent Brewer #8KB
Ivy and Brewer would bring the field to green for the 15 lap dirt truck feature with Brewer gaining the advantage over Ivy, Dan Roepke Jr., Matt Foos, Jimmy McGrath, Brad Keckler, Shawn Valenti and Art Ball. Dustin Keegan would stop after a lap was completed to bring out the only caution of the race.

When the green flew Brewer was locked in a tremendous battle for the lead with Roepke, Ivy and Foos. Brewer and Roepke ran side by side from lap two through lap 10 with Foos and Ivy glued to their rear bumpers. Foos would drive into second on lap 11 and took over the battle with Brewer.

At times Brewer, Foos and Roepke were three wide battling for the lead. As they raced to the checkers, Jeff Warnick would get side ways coming out of turn four and Brewer nearly hit the front stretch wall as he shot to the win. Roepke, Foos, Valenti and Ivy would round out the top five.

There is no racing next week at Attica Raceway Park due to the Attica Fair. Action picks back up on Saturday, Aug. 16 on WNWO NBC Toledo Channel 214/Culy Contracting Night with the 410 sprints, late models, 305 sprints and dirt trucks in action.
