By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Two was the lucky number at Attica Raceway Park on Fisher Performance Night, Friday, Aug. 1. Burgoon, Ohio’s David Harrison scored his second straight 410 sprint victory as did Helena, Ohio’s Stuart Brubaker in the 305 sprints. Mansfield’s Wayne Maffett Jr. captured his second Attica win in the late models as did Alex Wiechman of Oak Harbor, Ohio, in the dirt trucks.
Harrison’s win gives him four on the season as he also owns a pair of victories at Fremont Speedway. Harrison held off Byron Reed on a lap 27 restart for his fifth career win at “Ohio’s Finest Racing” speedplant.
“On that restart I knew I had a clear track and that was comforting, but you can’t relax with the competition that races here and at Fremont every week. Bill, Jamie, Eric and everyone had this car locked down. I have to thank Dennis Level…he built us one heck of an engine,” said Harrison beside his Genzman Racing, Crown Battery, Blaster Racing backed sprint car.
ImageBrubaker took the lead with just four laps remaining and then held off a last lap charge by Bryan Sebetto for his third career Attica victory.
“On the first lap I hauled it into one and it bounced around and I thought this thing was a piece of crap. But as the fuel load burned off the car came around and Joe Laugherty had it set up perfect,” said Brubaker beside his Kylnn Inc., Brubaker Auction Services backed #35. “On that last lap, I knew Bryan (Sebetto) would try to drive around the outside so I made my car wide and it took his momentum away. I know how he feels coming that close…he did it to me a few times last year.”
Maffett’s 31st career Attica victory was emotional as he surpassed his late father on the track’s all-time win list for the Attica Late Models.
“Fourteen years ago, Attica and Mansfield were the only tracks that allowed me to run a Polish victory lap with my dad’s car following his death. He won over 300 features in Ohio and for Attica to allow us to do that then…this place has always had a special place in my heart,” said Maffett beside his Wright Choice Auto Sales, Estes Racing Engines, Rod Eddleblute Garage backed late model.
ImageThe truck feature was another barn-burner as five trucks battled it out in the final three laps before Wiechman scored another close win. Like his first one, this one was again by less than a bumper.
“This is just unbelieveable. These guys in this division race you so hard but they are so clean. I have to thank Cory Ward and his family and Brian Arnold and his group…they help me set this truck up,” said Wiechman beside his AW Automotive, Blue Eagle Inn, Deco Crete, Lagooon Saloon backed truck.
At the drop of the green for the 30-lap 410 sprint feature, Chris Andrews bolted into the lead with Harrison right on his rear bumper. Just five laps into the run, Harrison was racing side by side with Andrews for the lead. Harrison would diamond off the corner in turn four to grab the top spot on lap 7.
Following a caution on lap 8, Harrison began to pull away while Andrews had his hands full with Byron Reed and Jamie Miller. But, the action would grind to a halt on lap 10 for a Travid Philo flip. On the restart Miller would drive into second and was begin to close on Harrison.
ImageHarrison would hit lapped traffic by lap 17, but Miller couldn’t take advantage as he retired pitside with mechanical woes. Reed fell off the pace a bit, allowing, Andrews and Mike Dussel to close. Dussel would grave second on lap 19, and Reed would power back to the fight on lap 21, moving around Andrews into third. Reed would take second on lap 23 and pull close to Harrison.
Harrison would get a break on lap 27 when the yellow flew for an Aaron Middaugh spin. With a clear track ahead, Harrison seemed to have the race in control the final three laps. But, Reed had other ideas, consistently pressuring Harrison. Harrison held off Reed for the win with Dussel, Phill Gressman and Andrews rounding out the top five.
Jody Keegan won the Fisher Performande Hard Charger Award for his run from 18th to sixth.
Rookie D.J. Foos was looking for his second career win when he jumped into the early lead of the 25-lap 305 sprint eature. However, third starter Bryan Sebetto would drive around him into the top spot on lap five with Dustin Dinan and Brubaker applying the pressure. Dinan would tangle with another machine on lap six, ending his run.
Meanwhile, Brubaker, who started seventh, moved around Foos into second on lap 7 and stayed within striking distance of the rim-riding Sebetto. Sebetto and Brubaker would run side by side from lap 11 through lap 21 when Brubaker made his winning move in traffic, driving under Sebetto in turns one and two for the lead.
A yellow on lap 22 for a Dan Hammond spin – right in front of Brubaker – bunched up the field and gave Sebetto one last shot at Brubaker Sebettodrove his car in hard agains the cushion in turns 3 and 4 on the last lap, but Brubaker was smooth on the bottom for the victory. Todd Heuerman, Foos and Mark Pridemore would round out the top five.
Bobby Clark picked up the Fisher Performance Hard Charger Award for his run from 17th to sixth.
ImageJustin Chance stormed into the lead at the drop of the green in the 20-lap Service Drive Solutions UMP Attica Late Model feature. Maffett stayed right on his bumper though and on a lap 9 restart following a caution, drove into the lead. Meanwhile, a tremendous battle ensued for second involving, Chance, Mike Bores, Mike Marteney, Curtis Diesenroth and Steve Sabo. Bores would hold the runner-up position from laps 12 through 16 before surrendering it to Diesenroth.
At the checkered flag Maffett had a two car length advantage over Diesenroth, Bores, Chance and Jim Fleming.
Dusty Moore earned the Fisher Performance Hard Charger Award for his run from 16th to 7th.
In the exciting 15-lap dirt truck feature, Brian Arnold jumped into the early lead with Wiechman in tow. The battle heated up early with six trucks in the mix for the lead. Arnold led the entire race accept the last corner, where Wiechman drove to his outside for the checkered. Arnold, Bob Dible, Art Ball and Steve Endicott would round out the top five.

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Santa Claus made a visit to Attica Raceway Park Friday to celebrate Christmas in July. And it was Burgoon’s David Harrison and Swanton’s Dusty Moore who received the biggest gifts, along with Sandusky’s Cory Ward and Helena’s Stuart Brubaker.
Harrison took the lead on the 19th lap of the 410 sprint feature when Mike Dussel bounced over the cushion and spun while leading. Harrison never looked back as he recorded his fourth career Attica win on Smith Family Frosted Foods Night.
For Moore, it was Devin Shiels’ either running out of fuel or a mechanical woe that gave him the victory coming down for the checkered flag in the Service Drive Solutions UMP Attica Late Model feature.
Brubaker grabbed the lead by driving under D.J. Foos on the 16th lap to take his second victory of the season in the 305 sprints.
Cory Ward held off several challenges by Art Ball to lead all 15 laps of the dirt truck feature to record his fifth win of the season to double his career mark at “Ohio’s Finest Racing” speedplant.
Image”Mike Dussel had us covered. I hate it for him because he’s a very good driver,” said Harrison beside his Ludwig Propane, Crown Battery backed J&J chassis. “But hey, I’ve lost them like that too, so I know how he feels.”
“I have to thank Dee Genzman for putting this deal together. We trashed a car a couple of weeks ago and the crew worked hard to put this one together and it feels just as good as the other one,” added Harrison of his third win of the season, having scored two at Fremont Speedway.
Shiels led 19 and 7/8ths laps of the 20 in the late model feature. However, as he exited turn four coming for the checkered, his car lost power the last few feet and Moore sped by for his first career ARP win.
“Devin had us all covered. There was no way I was going to catch him. But, I’ll take it. I said it’s better to be lucky than good and we were lucky tonight and I’m not giving the win back,” joked Moore beside his WD 40, Markey Ambulance Rental, Joe Gibbs Driven Oil backed #40.
For Brubaker, it not only was his second win at Attica, but put him in a better position to win the track championship.
Image”Joe (Laugherty) and the crew had the car so good on the bottom I couldn’t screw it up,” said Brubaker beside his Kylynn Inc., Brubaker Auction Services, Gressman Powersports backed sprinter. “Tom Dussel of Kylynn gave us this motor to run this year, so we owe him a lot.”.
Ward is having a dream season, winning five of the nine dirt truck features in addition to claiming four wins at Fremont Speedway.
“The truck was just so easy to drive. On that one yellow I pulled up to see who was running second and when I saw it was Art (Ball) I knew I had better not screw up or he would make me pay,” said Ward beside his Budweiser, Excuses Lounge, Lakeshore Drywall backed truck.
In the 30-lap 410 sprint feature, Dussel, in his rookie year of 410 sprint racing, grabbed the early lead with Harrison, Jamie Miller and Byron Reed in tow. Dussel survived three early race restarts following cautions to pull away to a healthy advantage each time while Harrison, Miller, Reed, Greg Wilson and Tim Shaffer staged a wicked battle behind. It was lap 18 when disaster struck for Dussel, as he climed the banking in turn three and jumped the cushion, spinning out.
Harrison would inherit the lead and would hold off Reed while Lee Jacobs roared into third by lap 26. Harrison would go on to record his fourth career Attica 410 victory with Reed, Jacobs, Wilson and 17th starter Craig Mintz rounding out the top five.
ImageIn the 20-lap late model main, Shiels would grab the early lead while Ryan Missler, Moore and Larry Kingseed staged a tremendous battle for second. About half way into the feature, the race was marred by several yellows. Each time Shiels would pull away on the restart as Moore continued to run in second, with Missler, Curtis Deisenroth and Kingseed battling for third.
Moore dove under Shiels’ powerless machine coming to the checkered for the win. Shiels, Missler, Deisenroth and 14th starter Steve Sabo would round out the top five.
John Bartlome took the lead at the drop of the green for the 25-lap 305 sprint feature with Dustin Dinan, D.J. Foos and Zack Kramer in tow. Following a handful of early race yellows, Dinan would drive around the outside of Bartlome for the lead on lap 6. Bartlome would spin the next lap moving Foos into second and a closing Duane Zablocki into third. Foos, who picked up his first sprint car win last week, would drive around Dinan into the lead on the 11th circuit, with 8th starting Brubaker moving into the runner-up position a lap later.
Brubaker would drive under Foos on the 16th lap to grabe the point and would cruise to the win with Foos, Dinan, Zablocki and Steve Rando rounding out the top five.
ImageGiving Ward the pole for a feature this season makes it nearly impossible for the competition. However, the veteran Ball moved into second on lap five and hounded Ward the entire feature. Ward would score his 10th Attica win over Ball, Steve Endicott, Dan Hennig and Alex Weichman.
Attica Raceway Park will conclude its Friday night racing on Fisher Performance Night on Aug. 1 before moving to Saturdays the last three races of the season.

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Santa Claus knows all about reindeer power. He’s hoping to get some tips on horsepower when he visits Attica Raceway Park Friday, July 25. The “Jolly Ol’ Elf’ from the North Pole is heading south to “Ohio’s Finest Racing” speedplant to celebrate Christmas in July presented by Smith Family Frosted Foods.
The night of fun at Attica will feature the exciting great racing of the 410 winged sprints, 305 winged springs, Service Drive Solutions UMP Attica Late Models and the dirt trucks. Over 90 race vehicles are expected to compete on the one-third mile dirt track in over 15 breath-taking events.
Just because he’s on vacation doesn’t mean Santa won’t bring along a bag of goodies for kids of all ages. Kris Kringle will be passing out candy canes along with special prizes throughout the evening. Fans will have the chance to win tickets to Toledo Mud Hens baseball games and an Akron Aeros baseball contest to see special guest Kurt Bush on Wednesday, Aug. 13. One lucky boy or girl (ages 10 and under) will win a bike!
Everyone is invited to enjoy Christmas in July at Attica Raceway Park…and to dress the part! Adult general admission is only $14; seniors get in for $12; teens 11-15 for $10; and kids 10 and under are free.
Gates open at 5 p.m. and racing action heats up at 8 p.m. Attica Raceway Park is located in the Attica Fairgrounds just northeast of U.S. 224 and St. Rt. 4. For more information log onto atticaracewaypark.com or call 419-680-5606.
