SUPER STOCK SPECIAL

Brownstown Speedway

Brownstown, IN

September 22, 2007

The 20 Lap Bomber Feature started out with Jamey Wilson and Chris Wilson on the front row via winning their respective heat races. Wilson jumped out to the lead on the green flag and led lap one with Bubba Woods and Chad Stapleton in tow. Woods then moved under Wilson on lap two to take the lead down the frontstretch. A battle for fourth started to shape up between Josh Turner and Rusty Smiley on lap four, as Turner grabbed the fourth spot. Smiley then had to contend with Ben Burton as the yellow flew for Tim Meade in turn four. Unfortunately for Burton, his left front broke just as the caution flew, ending his evening. On the restart, Woods opened up a four car advantage on Wilson as they completed lap five. Behind Woods and Wilson, Stapleton and Turner battled for third briefly with Stapleton holding the spot. Behind Turner, Smiley and Wilson went door to door for the fifth position on lap eight. Smiley got around Wilson and Turner going down the backstretch to take fourth. At the halfway point, Woods held a half straight lead over the now second place car of Stapleton. Wilson, Smiley, and Turner rounded out the top five at halfway. The caution would fly for the second time on lap 12, as Robby Johnson spun in turn one in front of the leaders. When the green flew, Stapleton tried to put a nose under Woods for the lead, but to no avail. The fourth place car of Smiley saw a bit of bad luck, as he abruptly pulled off the speedway on lap 14. The third caution of the event flew on lap 15, as Meade spun again in turn one. Woods opened up a three car advantage over Stapleton when the green flew on the restart. With four to go, Woods maintained his advantage over Stapleton while running the bottom of the speedway. With one lap to go, Woods held a four car edge over Stapleton as they took the white flag. It was all Woods at the checkers ahead of Stapleton, Wilson, Turner, and Chris Wilson rounding out the top five.

The 20 Lap UMP Modified feature started with John Davis and Devin Gilpin pacing the field to the green flag. Davis took the green flag and dove into turn one just a little too low and hit the infield tire, looping his car around in front of the field. Amazingly enough, every car went by and did not hit Davis. Al Flick inherited the pole position via Davis moving to the tail. The second attempt at the restart was waved off. On the start, Jimmy Hayden moved from third to the lead coming down the backstretch. The caution flew once again as a multi-car accident occurred in turn three, resulting in another complete restart. The third attempt at the restart was also a failure, as Curt Bennett spun in turn one. With a single file restart now in place, Gilpin led the field to the green flag. Behind him, Brent Londeree flew around both Derek Groomer and Hayden for second. The caution flew once again on lap two, for another multi car pile up in turn four. On the restart, Gilpin led lap two, with Hayden, and Groomer in tow. Matt Boknecht shot to the highside and moved around both Hayden and Groomer to take second. Hayden and Groomer then waged a battle for third. They both then watched Londeree shoot around both of them to take third on lap five. As the field clicked off lap six, Londeree abruptly slowed going down the backstretch while running third. The new top five on lap six read as Gilpin, Boknecht, Groomer, Hayden, and Don Adams. With six laps in the books, Gilpin took the field to the restart. Boknecht started to turn up the pressure on Gilpin on lap eight, moving to the outside of Gilpin for the lead. Behind them, Adams moved around Groomer for third, as Groomer almost went off the backstretch banking. The caution flew again on lap ten, as John Davis went around in turn four. When the green flew on the restart, Boknecht launched himself out to a four car advantage over Gilpin. Adams then moved under Gilpin for the second spot as the field came out of turn four. The caution flew again on lap 11 as Levi Kissinger spun in turn four. On the restart, Adams looked under Boknecht for the lead coming down the backstretch. Boknecht then turned up the wick, and opened up his advantage on Adams to almost a full straightaway with five to go. Behind Boknecht, Gilpin threw a slide job on Adams, and made slight contact. Adams fell back to fourth in the exchange. Up front, however, it was all Boknecht picking up the win ahead of Groomer, Gilpin, Adams, and Rob Manley rounded out the top five.

The 30 lap Topless Super Stock main event started with Rick Gumm and Jim Ruddick on the front row. Gumm led the field into turn one, with Ruddick taking the lead coming out of turn four to lead lap one. Gumm then moved back under Ruddick to lead lap two. The duo remained glued to each others door panels as they battled for the lead on lap three. Behind the lead battle, Nathan Patman and Earl Plessinger duked it out for the third spot, with Plessinger grabbing the spot on lap five. Back up front, Ruddick finally distanced himself from Gumm, and grabbed the lead on lap seven. Ruddick moved out to a three car advantage over Gumm, who now had Plessinger breathing down his neck. By lap ten, Randy Petro had moved up to the fourth position from his 13^th starting spot. The caution flew on lap 13, as Toby Perry slammed the outside guardrail off of turn three. The top five as of lap 13 was Ruddick, Plessinger, Gumm, Petro, and Patman. The restart was brought back, as Perry pulled to a stop on the backstretch with a broken front end. On the restart, Ruddick jumped out to a five car advantage over Plessinger. Behind them, Petro moved around Gumm for the third position. With ten to go, Ruddick held a half straight lead over Plessinger, Petro, Gumm, and Brad Cummings. With seven to go, it seemed as if Ruddick had some troubles in the turns, as Plessinger, Petro, and Gumm drew closer. With five to go, Ruddick gathered his car up, and moved further ahead of Plessinger. Behind them, Gumm jumped the cushion, allowing Cummings to move to fourth. With one to go, Ruddick held a half straight lead over Plessinger, as Gumm, Cummings, and Petro went three wide for third. Gumm ended up with the third spot, with Cummings fourth, and Tim Clark getting around Petro for fifth. Ruddick cruised to the checkers ahead of Plessinger, Gumm, Cummings, and Clark.

BARNETT, WOODS, AND JOHNSON WINNERS AT BROWNSTOWN; BARNETT CLAIMS LATE MODEL
TRACK CHAMPIONSHIP
 
Steve Barnett of Franklin, IN laid claim to his third Brownstown Speedway
Late Model track championship on Saturday night, also claiming the feature
win in the process. In UMP Modified action, Greg Johnson of Bedford, IN
piloted the Mike Roundtree owned #2 Modified to the feature victory. In the
Bomber division, Bubba Woods held off a determined Edgar Godsey by a half
car length for the win.
 
The UMP Modified main event started with Matt Boknecht and Brandon Short on
the front row via winning their heat races. Boknecht darted out to the lead
on the first lap, with Short in tow. Behind them, Greg Johnson made a four
wide pass on the highside in turn two to take third. Johnson then moved to
the second spot, getting around Short on lap two. Johnson, still on the rim,
moved in to challenge Boknecht for the lead on lap five. Meanwhile, Devin
Gilpin moved into third, getting around Short. The first caution would fly
on lap six, as Dale Ayers spun in turn two. When the green flew for the
restart, Boknecht moved to the topside, switching from the bottom to keep
Johnson at bay. Johnson then had to contend with Devin Gilpin, who tried to
move under him for second on lap seven. Johnson had enough momentum to hold
him off, keeping his runner up spot. On lap nine, Johnson threw a slide job
on Boknecht to grab the lead. At the halfway point on lap 10, Boknecht tried
to move under Johnson to snare the lead back, but to no avail. The battle
for third picked up on lap 12, as Todd Gilpin moved around his son Devin, to
get the spot away. Todd then began to work the back bumper of Boknecht for
the second spot. Boknecht kept the runner up spot from Todd Gilpin as the
field took the five to go signal. By this time, Johnson had opened up a full
straight lead over Boknecht. Behind the leaders, Richie Lex moved to fourth,
getting around Devin Gilpin on lap 18. As the white flew, Todd Gilpin took
the second spot away from Boknecht. No one, however, had anything for
Johnson as he took the checkers a full straight ahead of Todd Gilpin,
Bokencht, Lex, and Devin Gilpin rounded out the top five.
 
The 20 lap Bomber feature started with Bubba Woods and Greg Hicks on the
front row. Woods darted out to the lead and led lap one. The caution flew on
lap one for debris on the speedway. On the restart Woods darted out to about
a three car advantage over Hicks as they completed lap two. Behind Woods,
Edgar Godsey moved around Hicks for the second spot on lap three. The second
yellow of the race flew on lap four, as John Mayer Jr. spun in turn two. As
the field went green for the restart, Godsey and Woods dueled side by side
for the lead on lap five. Woods using the topside while Godsey utilized the
bottom groove. Woods seemed to have the momentum working for him on the
topside, as he pulled away from Godsey down the straights. Caution number
three flew on lap seven for the stalled car of Chad Stapleton on the
backstretch. On the restart, Woods once again jumped out to the lead on
Godsey, as Hicks dropped off the turn three banking while running third. The
caution flew once again on lap eight, as Kyle Stephenson spun in turn two.
Woods once again led the field to the green on the restart with Godsey,
Chris Wilson, Rusty Smiley, and Darren Crawhorn rounding out the top five.
At the halfway point, Woods held about a car length advantage on Godsey as
they crossed the line on lap 10. Behind Godsey, Smiley and Wilson battled
for the third spot, with Smiley grabbing the position on lap 11. Smiley then
worked around Godsey to get the second spot one lap later. The caution flew
for the fifth time on lap 13, for the car of Greg Hicks who found the
frontstretch wall. When the green flew for the restart, Woods took off to
the topside and opened up about a two car advantage on Godsey. With five to
go, Godsey tried to make progress on the bottom of the track to catch Woods
for the lead. As the white flew, Godsey moved in to go side by side with
Woods for the lead. As the lead duo moved into turn three, Godsey tried to
make one last ditch effort for the win, but fell a half car length short to
Woods at the finish.
 
The Late Model feature saw Steve Barnett and Rohn Moon make up the front row
for the 25 lap main event. The first start would be brought back as the
drivers were a bit apprehensive coming to the green. The second start also
had to be brought back due to a four car accident in turn one. A complete
restart was needed, as no laps had been complete. Barnett and Moon once
again brought the field to the green. Barnett would lead lap one, with Moon
running in second. The caution flew again on the first lap, as Gary Hardin
spun on the frontstretch. With one lap complete, Barnett led Moon, Greg
Johnson, Zach Carney, and Tim Prince to the green on the restart. Barnett
shot out to about a three car length advantage over Moon, who about put his
car over the turn three banking on lap three. The top five began to stretch
out a little bit as the field completed lap five. Moon lost the second
position, as he went over the turn three banking on lap six. This put Greg
Johnson up to the second spot. Moon then lost third to Carney on lap seven.
The caution flew on lap eight, as Dusty Chapman and Justin Shaw got together
coming out of turn four. On the lap eight restart, Barnett took the green
with Johnson right behind him. Johnson hit the top side, and moved to the
outside of Barnett. Just as he moved to the outside of Barnett, something
broke on his car, leaving him stopped on the outside of turn four. With
Johnson out, Carney inherited the second position. Completing the top five
were Moon, Mark Barber, and Prince. Barnett took a four car advantage on
Carney as the field went green. Behind Barnett and Carney, Barber and Moon
battled for third. Moon was able to hold Barber off for the third spot as
the field completed lap 12. Up front, Carney began to close the gap little
by little as the halfway signal was shown to the field. Barnett began to
turn up the wick, moving a bit further ahead of Carney with ten to go.
Barnett seemed to be flawless on the bottom of the race track, as he held a
half straight advantage on Carney with five to go. Behind the leaders, Tim
Prince moved to fourth, getting around Barber on lap 22. With two to go,
Barnett now had a full straight advantage on Carney. With the white flag
waving, Barnett cruised on to the victory over Carney, Moon, Prince, and
Barber rounded out the top five.

Brownstown Speedway
Brownstown, IN
“Night Before the Jackson 100”by 31 Diesel Truck/Wrecker Service/Hercamp
Crane
August 17, 2007
 
The “Night Before the Jackson 100” event at Brownstown Speedway kicked off
the 28th Annual Jackson 100 weekend on Friday night. Don O’Neal of
Martinsville, IN claimed the Late Model feature win from his third starting
position. In the Non Winners Feature for drivers that have never won a
feature at Brownstown, Brandon Kinzer of Allen, KY took home the checkers.
Columbus, IN native Randy Petro took home a hard fought Super Stock feature
event.
 
The 30 lap “Night Before the Jackson 100” feature event started with Brandon
Kinzer and Tim Tungate both looking for their first ever feature win at
Brownstown. On the start, Don O’Neal shot under the duo of Kinzer and
Tungate to snag the lead on lap one. The caution flew on lap three as Bryan
Barber looped his mount in turn one. On the restart, O’Neal darted to the
bottom of the track and extended his lead on Tungate to about five car
lengths. Behind them, Greg Johnson battled with Kinzer for the third spot on
lap five. Johnson grabbed the third spot away from Kinzer on lap six. Kinzer
then dove back under Johnson on the next circuit to get the spot back.
Johnson then took third back on lap eight, just one lap later. By the lap 10
mark, O’Neal had almost a full straightaway lead over Tungate. The man on
the move on lap 11 was John Gill who had started 11th and was running fifth
by lap 12. Back up front, Johnson began to reel in Tungate for the runner up
spot. Johnson moved around him for second on lap 14. Back to Gill, as he
moved under Kinzer for the fourth position on lap 16. Kinzer didn’t give up
the spot easily, as he moved back around Gill for fourth. Ahead of them, the
battle for second was heating up again, as Tungate and Johnson battled door
to door for the spot on lap 19. With ten to go, the top five read as O’Neal,
Tungate, Johnson, Gill, and Kinzer. Gill then reeled in the second and third
place cars of Tungate and Johnson to make it a three way dance for second.
Behind them, Matt Miller moved himself into the top five getting around
Kinzer. With five to go, O’Neal still had about a full straight lead over
the three way battle for second that was going on behind him. On lap 26,
Gill, Tungate, and Johnson went three wide for second, with Tungate holding
onto second, with Gill moving around Johnson. With one to go, it was all
O’Neal finishing ahead of Tungate, Gill, Johnson, and Miller rounding out
the top five.
 
Don Barnett and Randy Petro started on the front row for the 25 lap Super
Stock feature event. On the green, Petro jumped out to the lead, and led lap
one with Barnett in tow. Behind Barnett, Mike Cawood and Troy Clark battled
for the third spot on lap two. Cawood grabbed the spot, and looked to the
outside of Barnett for second. The battle for second became a three wide
battle between Clark, Cawood, and Barnett on lap five. Cawood won the battle
for second, bringing Clark with him to third, and Barnett back to fourth.
The caution flew on lap six for Brad Cummings who was spun around in turns
one and two. On the restart, Cawood moved under Petro to battle for the
lead. Petro held Cawood off as the field completed lap seven. Cawood tried
again on lap eight, moving under Petro for the point. Cawood held the
advantage on the bottom of the race track, with Petro in the middle. The duo
ran door to door for the lead once again on lap 10, with Cawood edging Petro
at the line on lap 11. Petro switched lines on lap 12, and took the lead
back away from Cawood using the bottom groove. Cawood then had to contend
with Clark, who was right on his back bumper. With five laps to go, it was
Petro about a half straight ahead of Cawood, Clark, and Jim Ruddick in
fourth. Ruddick moved to the high side and shot around both Clark and Cawood
for second in one turn on lap 21. With two to go, Ruddick was doing all he
could to try to reel Petro in for the lead. As the white flag flew, Petro
held off Ruddick at the line for the win.
 
The Non-Winners feature started with Terry Darkis and Garrett Blackwell on
the front row of the 20 lap feature event. Blackwell led the field down the
backstretch only to have his lead brought back due to a four car pileup on
the backstretch. The field would line back up for a complete restart with no
laps complete. The new front row was Blackwell and Zach Carney. This start
would also be brought back due to a six car pileup in turn one. A single
file restart was now in effect, as the field took the green flag on the
start. Blackwell led the field down the backstretch to lead lap one with
Jason Smith moving around Scott Jones for second. Victor Lee moved into the
third spot on lap three, getting around Jones. Back up front, Smith looked
under Blackwell for the lead on lap five. Blackwell held Smith off, but
Smith had to contend with Lee for second. Lee then had to hold off Brandon
Kinzer. Lee, Kinzer, and Smith went three wide for the second spot on lap
eight. Kinzer moved to second, with Lee third, and Patrick Sheltra moving
into fourth. At the halfway point, Blackwell led Kinzer, Sheltra, Lee, and
Bryan Barber. Up front, Kinzer poked his nose to the outside of Blackwell
for the lead on lap 13. Kinzer nabbed the lead away from Blackwell on lap
14, bringing Barber and Sheltra around for second and third moving Blackwell
back to fourth. With four to go, Kinzer held a car length advantage over
Barber. With the white flag in the air, Barber lost a bit of momentum to
Kinzer, as Kinzer picked up the win just ahead of Barber, Sheltra, Greg
Kendall, and Lee rounded out the top five.

LUCAS OIL LATE MODEL DIRT SERIES RETURNS TO BROWNSTOWN FOR 28TH ANNUAL 
“JACKSON 100”
 
	Fans looking back at the 2006 version of the Jackson 100 are still talking 
about it as being one of the best Jackson 100 races in the prestigious 
history of the event. Don O’Neal of Martinsville, IN spun on lap 29 and had 
to restart on the tail of the field. O’Neal methodically maneuvered his way 
through the field, and took back his lead from Greg Johnson of Bedford, IN 
on lap 75 en route to capturing the $15,000 payday.
 
	Reminiscing and replaying will turn into reality once again on August 17th 
and 18th for the 28th Annual “Jackson 100” weekend. On Friday night August 
17th, a $2,500 payday is on tap for the Night Before the Jackson 100 
Festivities sponsored by 31 Diesel Truck and Wrecker Service and Hercamp 
Crane of Seymour, IN. Along with the Late Model division, the always strong 
Super Stocks will be on hand to complete the evenings festivities running 
for $700 to win. The Night Before the Jackson 100 always gives teams a

GROSS, HINES, AND BARNETT VISIT VICTORY LANE AT BROWNSTOWN SPEEDWAY
By: Chris Nunn
 
 
Brownstown, IN -- On an evening where temperatures were scorching, fans at 
the Brownstown Speedway were treated to a hot night of racing action on the 
¼ mile oval. Dewayne Gross found his way to victory lane in a wild Bomber 
main event. Jeremy Hines cruised to the win in the Super Stock division, and 
Steve Barnett took home the Stormpay.com Crate Late Model Feature.
 
The 20 lap Bomber Main event rolled off with Bubba Woods and Josh Hayes on 
the front row via winning their respective heat races. Woods led the field 
around to complete lap one, with Edgar Godsey and Jamey Wilson battling for 
second. Godsey nabbed the runner up spot as they completed lap number two. 
Behind them a battle for fifth ensued between Dewayne Gross and Jim Pfeiffer 
on lap four. Gross held off Pfeiffer and then set his sights on Hayes for 
the fourth position on lap six. Gross got under Hayes to take the fourth 
position on lap seven. Back up front, Woods was now being challenged by 
Godsey, who was trying to get under him in the turns to get the spot. At the 
halfway point, it was Woods, Godsey, Wilson, Gross, and Hayes rounding out 
the top five. On lap fourteen slight contact was made between the top two 
cars of Woods and Godsey, as they battled for the lead at the five to go 
signal. With three to go, Godsey moved under Woods and grabbed the lead with 
two to go. As the field came to the white flag, Woods and Godsey made 
contact coming out of four, Godsey went around and was collected hard by 
Wilson as carnage ensued on the frontstretch. With the front three cars out 
of the race, Gross would now be the leader, with Hayes in second, Wes Tipton 
in third, Darren Crawhorn in fourth, and Pfeiffer rounding out the top five 
with two to go. On the restart, Gross nailed the gas and held off Hayes on 
the final two laps to pick up his first career feature in the Bomber 
division ahead of Hayes, Crawhorn, Tipton, and Pfeiffer.
 
The 20 lap Super Stock feature started with Jeremy Hines and Troy Clark on 
the front row. Hines would lead the first lap with Jim Ruddick and Earl 
Plessinger battling for second. Plessinger nabbed the second spot away from 
Ruddick on lap three, only to see Ruddick move right back alongside of him 
on lap four. Ruddick took the runner up spot back on lap five, bringing Troy 
Clark with him to third. This put Plessinger back to fourth, having to 
contend with Tim Clark. The caution flew on lap seven to put a halt to the 
action, as Nathan Patman spun in turn three. On the restart, Ruddick looked 
under Hines for the lead, only to see the caution fly again once again for 
Patman in turn three. When the green flew again, Hines darted out to about a 
two car advantage on Ruddick on lap eight. At the halfway point on lap ten, 
it was Hines, Ruddick, Troy Clark, Tim Clark, and Alan Magner completing the 
top five. Magner, Tim Clark, and Plessinger decided to take it three wide 
for the fourth spot on lap 12. Magner grabbed the spot, leaving Clark to 
battle with Plessinger for fifth. The third caution of the race flew on lap 
13 for debris in turn one putting a stop to the battle for fifth. When the 
green flew, Hines once again jumped out to an advantage over Ruddick as the 
field completed lap 14. Behind Hines, Troy Clark began to work on the rear 
of Ruddick for the second spot. Ruddick pulled away from Clark down the 
backstretch, holding on to his second spot. With three laps to go, Hines 
enjoyed about a seven car length advantage over Ruddick, and looked to be 
stretching the advantage with two to go. As the field looked to take the 
white flag, the caution flew for the spun cars of Chris Deweese and Patman 
in turn one. A green, white, checkered finish was now set up as the field 
took the green flag on lap 18. Hines would hold on to the lead to take the 
win, his tenth on the season overall ahead of Ruddick, Troy Clark, 
Plessinger, and Magner
 
The Stormpay.com Crate Late Model feature hit the track with Steve Barnett 
and Mark Barber on the front row. Barnett took to the bottom of the track 
and led lap one with Barber in second and Jim Moon in third. Moon lost the 
third position on lap three, as Brad Barrow moved under him in turn four. 
Moon then tried to move back under Barrow on lap four. The duo ran side by 
side as the caution flew on lap five for the spun car of Rex Blackwood. On 
the restart, Barnett darted out to a half straight lead over Barber on lap 
seven. Behind the leader, Steve Godsey moved into the fourth spot, getting 
around Moon. The second caution of the race flew on lap 11 for Tyler Allen 
in turn two. On the restart, a three way battle for second broke out between 
Barber, Barrow, and Godsey. Barrow took the second spot, leaving Barber and 
Godsey to duke it out for third. Godsey took the third spot away from Barber 
on lap 15. Barber got the third spot back, as Godsey about drifted over the 
turn two banking. Godsey lost two spots, as Moon went around him during the 
mishap. Godsey got the fourth spot back on lap 21. Up front, however, it was 
all Barnett as he cruised to the victory over Barrow, Barber, Godsey, and 
Moon completed the top five.

9th Annual “Lee Fleetwood Memorial”
O’Reilly NARA Battle of the Bluegrass DirtCar Series
June 23, 2007
By: Chris Nunn
 
MOON RISES OVER BROWNSTOWN’S LEE FLEETWOOD MEMORIAL EVENT
 
Brownstown, IN -- Greenwood, IN native Rohn Moon picked up his biggest
career feature win at Brownstown Speedway, claiming the 9th Annual “Lee
Fleetwood Memorial”. The event was sanctioned by the O’Reilly NARA Battle of
the Bluegrass DirtCar Series. Mother Nature did all she could to keep
Brownstown Speedway from racing, including dumping a substantial amount of
rain on the grounds all the way up until 12:30PM on race day. This led to a
heavier than normal race track, definitely not the norm for Brownstown.
Stanford, KY driver Victor Lee was the first victim of the heavy track, as
he flipped his car in turn two in qualifying. Heltonville, IN native Justin
Blackwell also flipped during his heat race, an incident that had nothing to
do with track conditions. Claiming victory in the UMP Modified division was
current points leader Shelby Miles, and in the Bomber division, Edgar Godsey
picked up yet another win on the season.
 
The 30 lap main event for the O’Reilly NARA Battle of the Bluegrass Dirtcar
Series started with Tim Tungate and Bryan Barber making up the front row.
Tungate would lead lap one with Barber battling with Tim Prince for the
second spot. The battle for second would heat up at Steve Barnett threw his
nose into the mix. Prince would grab second, leaving Barber to battle with
Barnett for third. Barnett grabbed the third spot away from Barber on the
fourth circuit, bringing Rohn Moon with him. Barnett then moved up to
challenge Prince for second on lap six. Both Barnett and Moon moved around
Prince to relegate him back to fourth. On lap eight, Moon moved around
Barnett for the runner up spot using the high side on the heavy track. The
first caution of the race flew on lap nine, as Joe Godsey spun in turn four.
On the restart, Tungate bolted out to a seven car length advantage over Moon
as the field moved down the backstretch. Moon quickly closed the gap on lap
11, moving to the outside of Tungate for the lead. Moon snagged the lead
away from Tungate on lap 12. At the halfway point, it was Moon, Tungate,
Barnett, Sheltra, and Marty O’Neal rounding out the top five. Moon started
to move through lapped traffic, throwing backmarkers at the battle for
second between Barnett and Tungate before the caution flew on lap 19 for
David Webb in turn four. When the green flew on the restart, Moon opened up
about a three car lead over Tungate as the field moved into turn one. With
five to go Moon had a half straight lead over Barnett, who got around
Tungate for second. As the white flag flew, Moon moved his mount steadily
around the track to take the checkers ahead of Barnett, Tungate, O’Neal, and
Sheltra rounded out the top five. 31 Entries broke down into four heat races
with Tim Prince, Tim Tungate, Steve Barnett, and Bryan Barber taking the
wins. One consi was needed to fill the field, with the win going to Mike
Jewell.
 
The 20 lap UMP Modified feature rolled off with Kent Robinson and Brent
Londeree making up the front row. When the green flew, Robinson and Londeree
ran door to door to complete lap one. Londeree nabbed the lead all to
himself on lap two, as Robinson and Shelby Miles battled for second. Miles
took the second spot from Robinson on lap four. The first caution of the
race flew on lap five, as Matt Ross looped his mount on the backstretch. On
the restart, Londeree took to the low side, with Miles up top battling for
the lead. Miles moved around Londeree on lap six for the point. Behind the
leaders, Todd Gilpin took the third spot away from Robinson as the field
took halfway. Back up front, Londeree and Miles mixed it up for the lead
coming down the frontstretch. Disaster struck Londeree, as he got into turn
one too hard and looped his mount in turn one bringing out the caution on
lap twelve. On the restart, Miles darted out to the lead and opened up a
three car advantage over Gilpin who was now in second. Gilpin then battled
with Robinson on lap 16 for the runner up spot, taking the position away on
lap 17. With two to go, Miles enjoyed almost a half straight lead over
Robinson. With the white flag in the air, Miles cruised to the checkers
ahead of Robinson, Gilpin, Brian Yeatman, and Matt Bex completing the top
five. 23 Entries were on hand, with the three heat wins going to Brent
Londeree, Kent Robinson, and Shelby Miles. With only five cars in staging
for the consi, it was scrapped, sending everyone to the feature.
 
The 20 lap Bomber feature started with Edgar and Joe Godsey leading the
field to the green. Edgar would lead lap one with Joe battling with Jason
Combs for second. The car on the move was Bubba Woods, motoring around Combs
and Joe Godsey to make it three wide for second. Joe Godsey put himself in
the second spot, with Combs in third, and Woods to fourth. The first caution
flew on lap four, as Dan Londeree found himself turned around on the front
stretch. Londeree would get his spot back, as officials deemed he was taken
out on the front stretch. On the restart Edgar Godsey took a two car length
lead over Joe Godsey. Chad Stapleton made his move into the top five,
getting around Woods, and then moved around Combs for third. Combs fought
back and took the third spot back on lap nine. The caution flew again on lap
nine, as Woods was spun around in turn one. Woods was given his spot back as
he was deemed taken out. The restart was brought back as Combs found himself
facing the opposite direction in turn two. Unfortunately for Joe Godsey, he
had to pull off with a flat left rear tire. When the green flew Edgar Godsey
led the field to the halfway mark on lap ten. Behind him, Woods and
Stapleton battled for second, with Stapleton holding the position on lap 11.
With five laps to go, Godsey held about a two car advantage over Stapleton
and Woods. With two to go, Stapleton closed the gap on Godsey to about a car
length. At the white flag, Godsey kept the advantage down the backstretch
and took the checkers ahead of Stapleton, Woods, Darren Crawhorn, and Dan
Londeree rounding out the top five. 30 Bombers entered the gates, with heat
wins going to Edgar Godsey, Joe Godsey, Bubba Woods. Richard Balentine
picked up the consi win.

RIGGLE, WOODS, AND GUMM BLAST INTO BROWNSTOWN SPEEDWAY VICTORY LANE
 
Brownstown Speedway
Brownstown, Indiana
Regular Show
June 16, 2007
 
Brownstown, IN -- On a night where the temperatures were scorching, Rickey
Riggle of Bedford, IN was that much hotter, claiming his first victory of
the season in the Late Model division in convincing fashion. Bubba Woods
also scored his first victory of the season in the Bomber division, using
the rim riding technique along the way. In Super Stock action, Rick Gumm
claimed victory number two on the season in his own Gumm Chassis #113.
 
The 20 Lap Bomber feature would be first upon the program with Josh Turner
and Bubba Woods leading the field. The original start would be brought back
due to debris on the backstretch. The field would double back up for another
try at the restart. Woods grabbed the lead on the start, and led lap one
with Turner and Edgar Godsey in tow. Jim Pfeiffer nabbed the third spot away
from Godsey coming down the backstretch on lap two, only to see Godsey move
back under him on lap three. Pfeiffer then lost the fourth spot to Jason
Combs on lap four going down the backchute. Back up front, Godsey began to
put pressure on Turner for the runner up position on lap six. Turner looked
to be too strong out of the turns, and held on to the second position.
Godsey then had to contend with Combs, as he looked to get around him for
third on lap eight. As the field took the halfway signal, it was Woods,
Turner, Combs, Godsey, and Jamey Wilson moved into the top five. Moving up
to the second position on lap 12 was Combs, as he got around Turner. As
Woods took the five to go marker, he held a half straight lead on Combs, who
had to maneuver through lapped traffic. Woods made his way through lapped
traffic with ease as he crusied to victory for the first time in 2007 ahead
of Turner, Godsey, Wilson, and Chad Stapleton rounded out the top five
 
Jason Hehman and Jeremy Hines found themselves on the front row of the 20
lap Super Stock feature event. Hehman led lap one with a battle for second
between Rick Gumm and Hines brewing behind him. Hines held off Gumm, staying
in the runner up spot. While that was going on, Hehman opened up about a
four car advantage on Hines as they completed lap number three. The battle
for second picked up once again on lap five, as Gumm moved under Hines for
the second spot. Gumm then went for the lead on lap seven on the bottom
groove of the race track. Gumm snagged the lead away from Hehman on lap
eight leaving Hehman in the middle groove trying to play catch up. The
caution flew for the first time on lap nine for the spun car of Darrell
Burton in turn two. When the green flew on the restart, Gumm immediately
went to the bottom of the track and pulled a four car advantage on Hehman
down the backstretch. At the halfway mark on lap 10, it was Gumm, Hehman,
Hines, Kevin Applegate, and Alan Magner rounding out the top five. The top
five spread themselves out single file as they completed lap 13. A battle
for the fifth position took place on lap 14, as Justin Robertson grabbed the
spot away from Magner. Robertson then lost the spot to Kevin Jones, who flew
past Robertson for the fifth position. The second caution flew on lap 16, as
Nathan Patman spun in turn one. On the restart, Gumm stretched his lead out
to about three lengths on Hehman, as Applegate and Hines battled for third
behind him. Applegate lost the fourth spot to Jones as the field took the
white flag. At the checkers it was all Gumm ahead of Hehman, Hines, Jones,
and Tim Clark rounding out the top five.
 
Joe Janowski and Shannon Reed led the Late Model feature to the green flag,
with Reed nipping Janowski at the line for the lead. Starting in the sixth
position, Rickey Riggle hit the top side and flew past Brian Wilhite and
Cody Mahoney to nab third. The caution would fly on lap two, as John Dome,
Jacob Webber, and Garrett Blackwell involved in an incident in turn one.
When the green flew on the restart, Reed bolted to a three car lead on
Janowski, as Riggle went back to the topside and moved around him for
second. Riggle then moved up to battle Reed for the lead on lap four, taking
the spot down the backstretch. Behind the leaders, Steve Barnett moved into
the top five with a pass on Cody Mahoney just before the caution flew on lap
six for Ryan Eads. Barnett would have to give up the fifth position, as
scoring reverted to the back to the last scored lap. On the restart, Riggle
darted back to the high side and immediately opened up a good sized
advantage on Reed. Back to the fifth place battle, as Barnett got around
Mahoney for fifth, and then moved past Wilhite and Janowski to take third.
Barnett then turned up the heat on Reed for second, moving to the outside of
him on lap twelve to take second. At the halfway mark, it was Riggle,
Barnett, Reed, Janowski, and Wilhite rounding out the top five. Riggle, on
lap 15, enjoyed almost a full straight lead over Barnett as they moved
through lapped traffic. The lead stretched to a full straightaway with five
laps to go. Another car on the move was the James Huff machine, who started
shotgun on the field, and moved up to the fifth position by lap 23. With the
white flag in the air, the outcome was no longer in doubt, as Riggle
completed the domination ahead of Barnett, Reed, Janowski, and Shawn
Negengard rounded out the top five.

O’NEAL, AMICK, AND GODSEY VISIT BROWNSTOWN SPEEDWAY VICTORY LANE
 
Brownstown, IN – Brownstown Speedway seemed blessed to dodge the rain that
plagued the area on Saturday night, and the fans were treated to a great
night of racing in the process. A full program of Bob Poynter Ford Late
Models, Right Way Guttering Bombers, and Car Quest UMP Modifieds were on
hand for the racing action. Along with our regular program, Mitchell, IN
native Arin McIntosh was on hand to show off her Non Winged Sprint Car, in
preview of next Saturday’s Non Winged Sprint Car Event, the first in years
at the track. A couple of familiar faces visited victory lane, along with
one new face. Martinsville, Indiana’s Don O’Neal claimed the Late Model
main, Edinburg, Indiana’s Joe Godsey returned to victory lane in the Bomber
division, and Bloomington, Indiana’s Greg Amick claimed his first ever UMP
Modified feature win.
 
The 20 lap UMP Modified feature would see Amick and UMP National Points
leader Kent Robinson pace the field. Amick led the field around and would
lead lap one with Robinson and Jared Bailey battling for second. Robinson
then took his mount to the top side and moved back around Bailey for the
runner up spot. The yellow flew for the first time on lap three for Devin
Gilpin, who spun in turn two. On the restart, Amick led the field to the
green flag with Robinson in tow. Behind the lead cars, Todd Gilpin moved
around Bailey for the third spot on lap four. Bailey then lost fourth place
to Lee Hobbs on lap five coming out of turn two. The car on the move by lap
eight was Matt Boknecht, who started 13th on the grid. He got around Bailey
for the fifth spot on lap nine. At halfway the top five were Amick,
Robinson, Gilpin, Hobbs, and Boknecht. Amick, on lap 14, was enjoying a six
car length advantage over Robinson, who had Gilpin right on his back bumper.
A battle for fifth started to take shape with just two to go, as Shelby
Miles moved around Boknecht. Miles then moved to fourth, as Hobbs would
flatten a tire coming to the white flag. Amick, however, was on cruise
control as he took the checkers for the first time at Brownstown ahead of
Robinson, Gilpin, Miles, and Boknecht rounded out the top five
 
The 20 Lap Bomber feature would follow the UMP Modified action with Joe
Godsey and Bub Cummings leading the field. Godsey darted out to the lead as
the green flew, and he would lead lap one with Cummings right behind him.
Cummings moved to the high side to challenge for the point as they completed
lap two. Godsey would hold off Cummings, as Edgar Godsey moved in to
challenge for second. Cummings put some distance between he and Edgar, as
Edgar had a battle brewing behind him for fourth. Bubba Woods and Jacoby
Hines went door to door for the fourth spot as the field completed lap six.
The battle for fourth became a three way dance for third, as they caught
Edgar Godsey on lap seven. Contact was made between Godsey and Hines, as all
cars continued on. Woods then put his mount under Godsey and grabbed third
on lap 10. This left Edgar and Hines to battle for the fourth position.
Godsey would hold off Hines to keep the fourth spot. Up front, however, it
was all Joe Godsey, as he held a half straight advantage over Cummings with
five laps to go. Godsey then coasted to the win over Cummings, Woods, Edgar
Godsey, and Hines completed the top five.
 
Rohn Moon and Justin Blackwell made up the front row for the 25 lap Late
Model main. Don O’Neal shot to the high side from his fourth starting
position to lead lap one. Blackwell shifted to second with Patrick Sheltra
moving to third getting around Moon. O’Neal started to set a torrid pace,
stretching his lead to about a half straight on lap six. Behind the leaders,
Mike Jewell was trying to get the fifth spot away from Greg Johnson, moving
underneath him on lap nine. Johnson could not hold him off, as Jewell went
under him for good on lap ten. By this time, O’Neal had begun the lapping
process and was a full straight ahead of Blackwell. A battle for third began
to take shape on lap thirteen, as Moon moved around Sheltra for the position
on the topside. Sheltra motored back under him just a lap later to reclaim
the third position. Back to Jewell now, as he was in the midst of fending
off Steve Barnett for the fifth position on lap 17. Barnett grabbed the spot
on lap 18, putting Jewell back to sixth. Back up front, Sheltra had ran down
Blackwell and began putting the heat on him for second. Sheltra then threw a
slider on Blackwell on lap 21 to take over the runner up spot. As the field
took the white flag, Shannon Reed would loop his mount in turn four, setting
up a shootout to the finish. Unfortunately for Sheltra, a lapped car had to
be placed between he and the leader O’Neal. A green, white, checkered finish
would now be set up on the lap 23 restart. The top five at this point were
O’Neal, Sheltra, Blackwell, Moon, and Barnett. When the green flew, O’Neal
bolted out to a substantial advantage over Sheltra. After the white flag
flew, another caution flew. This time for the spun car of Randey Riggle. On
the restart, O’Neal took a three car advantage into turn one. O’Neal sped to
the checkers ahead of Sheltra, Blackwell, Moon, and Barnett rounded out the
top five.

Wednesday Night Win At Brownstown Speedway Extends Dennis Erb Jr.’s Hot Streak On World of Outlaws Late Model Series

BROWNSTOWN, IN – May 16, 2007 – The ‘One Man Band’ is making big-time noise on the World of Outlaws Late Model Series.

Dennis Erb Jr. continued his hot streak on the Outlaws’ ‘Monster Midwest Tour,’ leading Wednesday night’s ‘Hall of Fame 50’ at Brownstown Speedway from flag-to-flag to register his second victory in the last three races.

The $10,000 triumph extended a spectacular five-day span of WoO LMS action for the 34-year-old from Carpentersville, Ill., who won his first career tour feature on May 12 at Charter Raceway Park in Beaver Dam, Wis., and finished second in a 40-lap A-Main on May 13 at Lincoln (Ill.) Speedway.

“It’s been one great stretch, that’s for sure,” said the soft-spoken Erb, a top competitor from the UMP DIRTcar Racing Late Model circuit. “Nothing really made me think this (streak) was coming. I just try to run good every time I race, and right now everything’s clicking.”

After living up to his nickname by driving his hauler solo to Brownstown Speedway’s first-ever WoO LMS event – his one regular crewperson, Heather Lyne, was unable to make the trip – Erb dominated the evening’s 50-lap A-Main. He blasted off the pole position to assume command at the initial green flag and never looked back, fending off challenges from Don O’Neal of Martinsville, Ind., and Earl Pearson Jr. of Jacksonville, Fla., en route to the checkered flag.

Erb drove his Petroff Towing/Thomason Transportation Rayburn to a final victory margin of roughly six car lengths over Pearson, who settled for runner-up money in NASCAR star Bobby Labonte’s Lifelong Locks MasterSbilt No. 44.

It was the third overall victory of the month for the sizzling Erb, who also topped a weekly UMP DIRTcar Racing feature on May 5 at Fairbury (Ill.) American Legion Speedway.

O’Neal finished third in Brownstown Speedway business partner Jerry Jones’s Rayburn mount, earning him the $500 WoO LMS ‘Bonus Bucks’ prize for being the highest-finishing driver who has never won a tour event and isn’t ranked among the top 12 in the current series point standings.

Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill., started from the outside pole but fell to a fourth-place finish in Billy Moyer Sr.’s Car City Rayburn, and three-time WoO LMS champion Billy Moyer of Batesville, Ark., rallied from the rear after making an early pit stop to complete the top five in his Banner Valley Hauling Rayburn.

Erb, who in 2005 won a Northern All-Stars Late Model Series event and a regular show at Brownstown, mastered the quarter-mile track’s inside groove on Wednesday night.

That was precisely part of his plan.

“Usually this place gets black-slick all the way across the track,” said Erb, who picked up some pit-area preparation assistance at Brownstown from a couple of his sponsors. “But when I looked at the surface before the feature, it looked like it was gonna keep some moisture on the bottom.

“I saw Don O’Neal win the Jackson 100 (at Brownstown) last year by running the bottom and using soft tires, so I set up to do the same thing.”

The only driver who seriously challenged Erb happened to be O’Neal, but the local favorite’s inside bid for the lead on lap 12 fell short. O’Neal then lost contact with Erb, falling to third when Pearson drove by on a lap-15 restart.

“I saw O’Neal underneath me one time,” said Erb. “But I just kept driving as hard as I could – and I wasn’t gonna get off that bottom unless someone passed me.”

Though Erb encountered some heavy pockets of lapped traffic late in a race that ran caution-free from lap 15 to the finish, Pearson never offered a major challenge for the lead.

“He just got off the corners so much better than I could,” said Pearson, who started fourth. “He had a lot of drive on the bottom.

“I knew I couldn’t do anything with him, so I didn’t want to mess with him. I just settled in and rode it out to finish second.”

Pearson was more than pleased with earning a $5,000 runner-up check.

“Erb’s been hot, and the Rayburns (chassis) have been hot around here lately,” said Pearson. “It’s nice to come here with a MasterSbilt and new Mopar engine and finish second, especially considering the way we’ve been running lately.”

The drive of the night might have been turned in by Moyer, who has 14 career wins at Brownstown.

Though Moyer started third, the veteran had to restart at the rear of the field after being involved in a multi-car tangle in turn one on lap five. Later, during a lap-15 caution period, he pitted to change a tire.

When Moyer returned, he took off, using the track’s middle groove in a manner no one else could match. Without the benefit of a caution flag, he made it all the way to fifth by lap 39 and was closing on Babb for fourth as the race ended.

Babb, who started from the outside pole, was disappointed with the setup choices that contributed to his fourth-place finish, but the performance was good enough to pull him back into a tie for the WoO LMS points lead with Clint Smith of Senoia, Ga. Smith, who led Babb by 18 points entering the event, qualified through a B-Main and struggled to a 13^th-place finish.

Rounding out the top 10 was Patrick Sheltra of Indiantown, Fla., who climbed as high as fifth from the 15^th starting spot; Steve Shaver of Vienna, W.Va.,; Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va., who ended the night tied for fourth in the WoO LMS point standings with Rick Eckert of York, Pa.; Rick Aukland of Zanesville, Ohio; and Scott James of Greendale, Ind.

Forty-seven cars entered the event, which was run on a cool, breezy spring night.

Shaver set fast time with a lap of 14.639 seconds.

Heat winners were Erb, Moyer, Pearson and Shane Clanton of Locust Grove, Ga., while Sheltra and Brandon Kinzer of Allen, Ky., captured the B-Mains.

Heat-race qualifier Justin Ratliff of Campbellsville, Ky., was scheduled to start third in the A-Main, but WoO LMS officials sent him to the rear of the field as a penalty for presenting his car late for the pre-race homestretch driver introductions. Local favorite Steve Barnett of Franklin, Ind., and Chris Madden of Gray Court, S.C., were also penalized for reporting late to the track, but both drivers were already scheduled to occupy the last two starting spots.

The WoO LMS ‘Monster Midwest Tour’ concludes on Fri., May 18, with a $10,000-to-win 50-lapper at I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, Mich. Log on to www.i96speedway.com for more info on the event.
