Linder Grabs 1st Attica Win of ’07; Shammo Takes 305s; Bores Claims Late Model Win; Ward Gets Truck Victory

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Mike Linder made one of his sponsors very happy Friday night at Attica Raceway Park. The Fremont driver picked up his first win of the season in a 410 sprint on R&R Auto Wrecking/Quality Welding Night. Ironically, Linder piloted a 305 sprint car to victory at ARP earlier this season – the car belonging to R&R owner Rich Farmer, who also sponsors the Andy James Motorsports 410 sprint.

Millbury’s Andy Shammo scored his second win of the season at Attica in the 305 sprints, while Bellevue’s John Bores, promoter at ARP, recorded his first win in the Fultz Fabrications & Speed Shop Late Models and Sandusky’s Cory Ward picked up second victory in the dirt trucks.

Linder got around early race leader Caleb Griffith on lap 20 and held off a hard-charging Greg Wilson for his 7th career Attica victory in the World Auto Parts of Huron & Cleveland 410 Sprints.

“I was going to have a hard time getting around Caleb…we were racing in the same groove and then he moved down in turn three and I got a run to the outside. My hats off to my crew…they have been working so hard in the shop and we’ve been getting better every night out,” said Linder beside his Linder’s Speed Equipment/ Burns Iron & Metal backed sprint car.

Shammo inherited the lead when Bryan Sebetto crashed into a spun car on lap 8. Shammo would build a comfortable lead and go on to claim his fourth career ARP win.

Image”I hated to see that happen to Bryan…I think we would have put on a good show battling for the lead. My hat’s off to John Bores and the entire Attica staff. They have brought this track back…you can really race hard here,” said Shammo beside his Fort Ball Pizza Palace/Matt Tille Enterprises backed #48.

Bores grabbed the lead from Bill Hahn on lap six and held off a last lap challenge by Mike Marteney for his third career Attica win in the late model feature.

“I found a little moisture on the bottom of 1 and 2 and knew I had to keep the car straight and get off turn 4 good,” said Bores. “I saw Mike stick his nose under me on the last lap..I just tried not to spin the tires.”

Ward grabbed the lead from Art Ball on lap 2 and held off several challenges from Brian Arnold to score his fourth career victory at ARP in the dirt trucks.

“I was having some problems with the gears, but the truck drove great,” said Ward beside his Excuse’s Lounge/East Side Cafe backed #18W truck.

ImageIn the 30-lap 410 sprint feature, Brandon Martin grabbed the early lead, only to see Griffith take the top spot on lap 2 with action halting for a Chris Andrews tip-over. Griffith would build a big lead with Linder moving into second on lap 3, with Martin, Byron Reed and 11th-starting Wilson in tow.

The action would be slowed on lap 16 for a stalled Roger Shammo, with only 10-cars on the lead lap. The running order was Griffith, Linder, Martin, Reed and Dustin Daggett.

Linder would make his winning move exiting turn 4 on lap 20. Griffith would try to drive back under in turn 2 but made contact with an infield tire barrier, collapsing his front axle, ending his fine run. Linder would continue to rim ride while the action behind him would heat up between Martin, Wilson, Reed and 12th-starting Mark Keegan. A spat of cautions would continue to slow the action, with Linder getting great restarts.

Behind Linder at the checkers were Wilson, Martin, Keegan and Reed. Wilson would take home an extra $200 from R&R Auto Wrecking for the “hard-charger” award for passing the most cars in the feature.

In the 25-lap 305 sprint feature, Sebetto, who has five victories at ARP in 2007, would grab the early lead from his pole-starting position. Shammo, Matt Ferrell, Cap Henry and Coty Runion would stage a hated battle for behind. Disaster would strike for Sebetto on lap 8 as he entered lapped traffic. Bobby Davis made contact with another car, sending him spinning in turn 4 right in front of the leader. Sebetto made contact and damaged his front end, bringing an end to his night.

ImageShammo would build a big lead while Henry, Runion, Josh Muntz and Dustin Keegan stagged a heated battle behind.With just two laps remaining, Shammo continued to lead while Henry and Keegan battled hard for second. Shammo would take the checkers over Henry, Keegan, a hard-charging Stuart Brubaker and rookie Josh Muntz.

Dustin Dinan took home an extra $100 as the R&R Auto Wrecking hard-charger, as he finished 6th from his 14th starting position.

In the 20-lap late model feature, Bill Hahn, Bores and Marteney put on a heck of a show for the lead early, with Hahn and Bores trading the top spot several times before the first yellow would fly on lap 4. Bores would take the lead for good on lap 6, with Hahn, 11th-starter Ernie Haynes, Marteney and Randy Scott battling hard right on his bumper.

After a few cautions, the race would go the final 10-laps under green, with Bores fighting off several challenges from Marteney. At the checkers, it was Bores, Marteney, Haynes, Scott and Larry Kingseed.

Jim Fleming would take home the $50 R&R hard-charger award by virtue of his 6th place finish from his 17th starting position.

ImageIn the 15-lap dirt truck feature, Art Ball would grab the lead but it would only last one lap before Ward powered into the top spot. The battle for second would heat up between Ball, Chuck Roelle, 9th-starter Brian Arnold and 12th-starter Shawn Valenti.

Ward continued to lead, but he couldn’t shake Arnold and Valenti. With two laps to go, Ward lead over Arnold and a closing Ball. At the checkers, it was Ward, Arnold, Ball, Steve Endicott and 15th-starter Bob Dible, who scored the $50 R&R hard-charger award.

Attica Raceway Park will be back in action Friday, July 13 for UUI Family Fun Night with just $10 general admission for adults. The Fultz Fabrications & Speed Shop Attica Late Models will compete for $1,000 to win with the 305 sprints and dirt trucks also in action.

Blaney Kicks Off UNOH Ohio Sprint Speedweek Defense With Attica Win

By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) Dale Blaney began the defense of his O’Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions Ohio Sprint Speedweek title by dominating the field Sunday at Attica Raceway Park to kick off the 25th Anniversary of the University of Northwest Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by RacingJunk.com.

The Fowler, Ohio driver took the lead from Brock Mayes on lap 15 and never looked back to record his 56th career All Star victory, to move him into a tie for third with Jack Hewitt on the all-time win list. It was Blaney’s second All Star win of 2007 at Attica and 9th overall 410 sprint victory at “Ohio’s Finest Racing” venue. Blaney, the 195 and 1996 All Star champion, has won the Ohio Sprint Speedweek title in 1995, 2003, 2004 and 2006.

Image”We got a good pill draw and laid down a good qualifying lap (fast time of the 54 that qualified) and that gets you out of the blocks in good shape. And anytime you get behind the wheel of George Fisher’s machine, it’s a great ride,” said Blaney beside is Berlin Natural Bakery sponsored #2. “It’s definitely a good way to start the week, but it just gets tougher every night.”

If Blaney can record three more wins over the next six nights, he would win a $50,000 bonus!

Brock Mayes would grab the early lead in the 40-lap Aarons Sales & Service/ Pepsi feature, with Craig Mintz applying pressure.Mintz would actually slide in front of Mayes to lead lap 3 before Mayes would get back around for the top spot. Mayes and Mintz would begin to pull away somewhat as Brian Ellenberger, Blaney, Brandon Martin and Rob Chaney battled behind them.

The first of only two yellow flags would fly for a stalled Greg Wilson on lap 8 with the running orderMayes, Mintz, Blaney, Ellenberger, Martin and Chaney. Mayes and Mintz would continue to battle for the lead as Blaney rode in their tire tracks. By lap 11, that trio battled side by side, with Blaney sliding by Mintz on lap 14 and then under Mayes for the lad a lap later.

ImageBlaney would encounter lapped traffic at the halfway mark, but it didn’t slow him down. The battle behind him was heating up between Mayes, Mintz, Chaney, Martin and Ellenberger.Chaney would grab the third spot on lap 22 and would fly around the outside of Mayes on lap 29 for second and would try to hunt down Blaney. Martin would move into third on lap 32. The final caution would come out on lap 37 for Lee Jacobs. Blaney had a couple of lapped machines between himself and Chaney. With an open track ahead, Blaney would cruise to the victory. Chaney would grab second, with Attica driver Brandon Martin getting a podium finish. Rounding out the top five were Byron Reed and 11th-starter Kenny Jacobs.

“It seems I’m always finishing behind that red #2. He had that clean track and that makes all the difference. It’s a good way to start off this long week. I couldn’t be prouder to drive this race car for Randy and Lisa Hammer and Rob Hunter and this entire crew,” said Chaney beside his Hammer Pallets/Berlin Natural Bakery backed 24h.

The finish for Martin was just what the doctor ordered.

“My confidence was down a little after last night (at KC Raceway). But the guys have been working hard on this in the shop and we’ve been making steady progress every time out,” said Martin beside his R&S Diversified, Martin Excavating backed #11. “This is great to end up on the horse track at my home track in front of this huge crowd.”

ImageGibsonburg, Ohio’s Ken Hahn would lead all 20 laps to record his 3rd career feature victory in the Fultz Fabrications & Speedshop Attica Late Models. Ryan Missler, Ernie Haynes, Jim Fleming and Mike Marteney would round out the top five.

“We are definitely on a roll. We’ll take it because I know how quickly luck can change,” said Hahn beside his Bestwick-Braun Company sponsored #27.

Ohio Sprint Speedweek Celebrates 25 Years of Great Racing

By Black Swamp Media Group: (Camargo, IL) The 25th Annual UNOH Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by RacingJunk.com is just about ready to kick into high gear in the Buckeye State. Always a week to look forward to for the past 25 years, this year proves to be no different as a $15,000 point fund is in place to be distributed amongst the Top 10 in points at the end of the week. In addition, the Speedweek promoters have offered a $50,000 bonus to any driver who can win 4 of the 7 events. Will there be a $50,000 winner in 2007?

Drivers were required to pre-register to be eligible for the Speedweek point fund and the bonus money and currently there are 48 drivers scheduled to compete for the additional money at week’s end. There is over $197,000 up for grabs just in scheduled purse money alone. In addition, HoserVille Ohio has stepped up to sponsor the All Star Dash which will pay money to the top dash finishers from the week in a special dash event at the Eldora finale. Ohio Sprint Speedweek is one of the richest weeks of racing in the United States and has attracted many of the top names of the sport from across the country and as far away as Australia.

The week kicks off (unofficially) at K-C Raceway on Saturday June 23rd for the annual “Night The Stars Come Out”. This event does not pay points toward the Speedweek point fund, but is always a good warm-up for the following 7 straight nights of racing through Ohio. The official Speedweek kickoff is on Sunday June 24th at Attica Raceway Park, then on Monday it’s on to Wayne County Speedway. From there the series moves to Waynesfield Motor Sports Park for the first time and will then travel to Hilltop Speedway on Wednesday for another first ever visit. On Thursday, it’s back to familiar Fremont Speedway and then on to Limaland Motorsports Park on Friday. Saturday’s $10,000 to win Speedweek finale will be held at the monster ½ mile Eldora Speedway. Visit www.ohiospeedweek.com for more information on the Speedweek tracks and for the Driver Pre-Entry List.

As twenty-four Ohio Sprint Speedweeks have already come and gone, fans remember the heroes who have made a lot of left turns in the state of Ohio. Kinser, Saldana, Wolfgang, Swindell, Hood, Huntley, Jacobs, Kerr, and Blaney are just a few of the names who have captured the attention of Ohio fans over the years during Ohio Speedweek. More names will be entered into the history books at the end of next week when the action concludes, signaling the mid-point of the All Star season. It is then that many teams start thinking seriously about trying to win the All Star Championship – depending where they land in the point standings at the end of the grueling week. Currently Danny Smith holds a 26 point lead over defending champion Greg Wilson and is 47 points ahead of 3rd place Brian Paulus. That can all change drastically in one week depending on luck and a lot of hard work.
