By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Both Fremont Speedway and Attica Raceway Park are continuing to take the input received from fans, drivers and sponsors and look for ways to provide more exciting, entertaining racing. Part of that will be to incorporate one-way radio communications between track officials and racers during the 2008 season. All drivers competing in all divisions at both tracks will be required to utilize the radios in 2008.

“We value the input we receive from the fans and teams. One of the things we have heard over the years is why does it take so long to line up cars during yellow and red flags. By incorporating one-way radios we will be able to tell each driver where they are to line up. Coupled with our officials using the line-up boards, it should cut down significantly on the number of yellow flag laps we run,” said Fremont Speedway Promoter Rich Farmer.

“There’s also a safety measure involved in the one-way radios. We’ll be able to tell the drivers when there is a problem on the track and where it is,” added Attica Operations Director Rex LeJeune.

Both tracks will be using the Raceceiver 1600 Elite (a yellow model about the size of a pager or cell phone). The Raceeiver unit includes a battery, clip and ear buds. Ross Paulson of the Computer Man, 200 E. State St., Fremont, Oh. 43420, has them in stock. Paulson is accepting cash, check or credit card (credit card users must bring them to the store). Contact Paulson at 419-355-0011 for more information or email him at [email protected]. Call Russ today to learn about the special price being offered.

Both tracks had investigated incorporating transponders in 2008, but after reviewing pricing and following discussions with many of the teams, have decided not to utilize the electronic scoring devices this coming racing season.

“We realize it would have been around $300, which some teams indicated would present some problems. We’re hoping by next year that cost will come down and we can also incorporate a reasonable rental method to help the teams out. We’re going to revisit the transponders again after 2008,” said Farmer.

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Attica Raceway Park crowned its 2007 champions at a gala awards program Saturday, Dec. 1. Earning the track titles were Byron Reed in the World Auto Parts of Huron & Cleveland 410 Sprints; Andy Shammo in the 305 sprints; Ken Hahn in the Fultz Fabrications & Speed Shop Attica Late Models; and Art Ball in the dirt trucks.

Attica Promoter John Bores thanked all the teams and fans for a successful 2007 season. He also paid special tribute to all the businesses who have become partners in the track’s success.

“To the drivers…you guys put on great shows every week. That’s what brings people to the race track. To the sponsors…without your support we couldn’t do this. It’s because of the business support we’re able to provide one of the best purses in the country every week,” said Bores.

Bores paid special tribute to World Auto Parts of Huron-Cleveland for being the division sponsor for the 410 sprints along with sponsoring nights of racing, and Fultz Fabrications & Speed Shop for their backing of the late model division.

ARP Operations Manager Rex LeJeune also thanked Kears Speedshop for providing a new Eagle chassis to Reed and a Triple X chassis to Shammo, and to Rayburn Race Cars and Wynn’s Service Drive Solutions for providing a new chassis to Hahn.

Bores also thanked the 2007 point fund sponsors, Friendship Food Stores, Underground Utilities Inc., Burns Electric, Jeff Hoyda Dentistry, Schiefer Nationwide Insurance, Quick Dry, Inc by Nick Zeis, Myers & Smith Insurance, Make a Wish Team 33, Reinecke Family Dealerships, and Missler Industries.

Prior to the top-10 in the final point standings for each division being introduced by emcee Brian Liskai, a brief video presentation produced by the Black Swamp Media Group highlighting the season was played.

For Reed, 2007 was a banner year. Not only did he win Attica’s title – his third straight – he also claimed the track title for 2007 at Fremont. The Monclova, Ohio driver competed in all 15 A-mains at ARP in 2007. Reed, who has titles in 2003, 2005 and 2006, scored an incredible 14 top 10 runs and a remarkable 10 top fives. He posted wins on May 11, June 8, June 15 and Aug. 3 and had three runner-up finishes. Reed now has 21 career Attica victories, moving into second place on the all-time win list. His average A-main finishing position was a fantastic fourth.

“This was probably the most consistent…the best year I’ve had,” said Reed, who thanked his parents and family for their support and backing and his sponsors – JEI chassis, Pro Shocks, Black Swamp Media Group and Reebar Die Casting. “I’ve always said Attica fits my driving style better than any other track. The competition here week in and week out is second to none.”

For Shammo, 2007 was also a stellar season, as he too won the ARP title – for the second straight year – and the championship at Fremont. The Millbury, Ohio driver recorded four wins in the 13 A-mains he competed in. Incredibly, he never finished lower than 7th all season, including 9 top five runs. His average A-main finishing position was 3rd.

“While we weren’t as fast ast Bryan (Sebetto) all season, we were consistent, and we never had a DNF. That’s a tribute to my Lamar and Yvonne Burkin (car owner) my dad and the crew and to Dennis Levell at Levell Performance,” said Shammo, who announced he would be racing 410 sprints in 2008.

Hahn picked up his first career feature wins in 2007 – all three coming at Attica. The Gibsonburg, Ohio driver competed in all 16 A-mains in 2007. He racked up a remarkable 15 top 10 finishes and 10 top fives. In fact, the only time he finished out of the top 10 was a 20th on April 20. From May 4 through the end of the year his worse finish was a pair of ninth place runs. He recorded three wins – on June 1, June 15 and June 24th. His average A-main finishing position was 5th.

“We had travelled a little over my career and to be honest, racing wasn’t fun any more. Then we started coming here every week and the crew here, the drives and fans made racing fun again,” said Hahn, who thanked his family and crew for their efforts.

For 69-year-old Art Ball, 2007 was a challenge, as he had to overcome some minor health problems. The Tiffin, Ohio driver backed up last year’s championship in style. The two-time ARP street-stock/limited late model champion competed in all 13 A-mains, racking up 12 top five finishes – his worse finish a 17th on Aug. 3. He scored wins on June 1, June 15, June 22, Aug. 25 and Sept. 1 and leads the all-time win list for the division with 7 victories. From opening night to August he worse finish was a fourth. His average A-main finishing position was an incredible third.

“Keith Pierce and the entire crew won this championship. They worked their tails off to put a good truck under me,” said Ball, who noted his doctor wasn’t pleased when, after his gall bladder was removed, was back to racing just three days later.
