Herbert, Cummings, Fields, and May Victorious in Lee Fleetwood Memorial Companion Action at Brownstown June 28
The 20 lap UMP Modified feature started with a caution for the spun car of Tim Eddelman in turn four, resulting in a complete restart. When the race resumed, Daryl Herbert took his car to the lead to complete lap one with Shelby Miles in second. A battle for third would shape up on lap four, as Chris Streeval and Ryan Thomas would duel. Streeval would keep the spot, leaving Thomas in fourth. Thomas then would have to contend with Matt Bex, who wanted the fourth spot. Thomas would hold Bex off and begin to make a charge back at Streeval. Thomas would make it around Streeval just before the halfway point, bringing Bex with him around Streeval to fourth. At halfway it was Herbert, Miles, Thomas, Bex, and Streeval making up the top five. The battle for third would resume on lap 13, as Bex and Thomas would battle once again for the spot. Thomas would retain the position, keeping Bex in fourth. While this was going on, Miles was reeling in Herbert, pulling alongside him for the lead on lap 16. Miles would make numerous attempts at getting around Herbert throughout the last four laps, but would come just three quarters of a car length short at the checkers. Completing the top five were Thomas, Bex, and Clint Demoss.
 
The Super Stock main event would see Jeremy Hines take the lead on the first lap, with Brad Cummings moving into the second position. Behind them, Tim Clark would move to the third position as Matt Boknecht moved around Jay Deckard for fourth. The caution flew for the first time on lap four, as Chris Deweese looped his mount in turn one. When racing resumed, Hines bolted out as the leader, as Boknecht slipped up a bit, dropping him numerous positions. Midway through the race, while leading, Hines would break something in the rear of his car, forcing him to the pits. This gave the lead to Cummings, second to Tim Clark, and Troy Clark to third. Cummings would cruise easily to the checkers. Completing the top five were Tim Clark, Troy Clark, Deckard, and Jim Ruddick
 
The Bomber feature saw Jason Combs and Aaron Fields make up the front row for the 20 lap main event. The initial start would be brought back due to a caution involving Josh Turner. When racing began, Combs took the lead from Fields on the holeshot, and would lead lap one. Behind them, Bub Cummings and Ben Burton would go side by side for the third spot. Back up front, the leaders would have a close call, as Andrew Deavers spun in front of them on the frontstretch. At the halfway point the top five were Combs, Fields, Burton, Cummings, and Chris Wilson. With five to go, Fields began to turn up the pressure on Combs, moving under him in turn two to grab the lead. A lead that Fields would hold on to until the finish, claiming his first ever win at Brownstown. Rounding out the top five were Combs, Burton, Cummings, and Wilson.

Brownstown Speedway Results For 6.21.08

Dick Phillips and Shelby Miles led the field to the green flag in the UMP Modified main event, with Phillips leading the first circuit. A battle for second began to take shape, as Miles and Matt Boknecht went side by side. The battle turned into a three way dance for the lead, as the two caught Phillips. Boknecht snagged the lead, putting Phillips to second, and Miles to third. Miles then had to contend with Earl Plessinger, who moved around him for third on lap six. Two laps later, Plessinger gor around Phillips for the second position. As the front four ran within feet of one another, Plessinger grabbed the lead from Boknecht. At the halfway point the top five were Plessinger, Boknecht, Phillips, Miles, and Jared Bailey. With five to go, Phillips began to put the pressure on Boknecht for the second spot. Phillips grabbed the spot with just four to go. As Plessinger clicked off the final laps, Boknecht grabbed the runner up spot back away from Phillips as the duo took the white flag. Up front, Plessinger took the win, his first on the season in the UMP Modified division. Rounding out the top five were Boknecht, Phillips, Miles, and Clint Demoss.
 
Shawn McIntosh took his fourth win of the season in the Pure Stock division, but had to fight hard for the victory. McIntosh started on the pole, but saw Tim Roberts shoot to the lead to complete lap one. Jeremy Shaddy challenged McIntosh for second, but McIntosh held the spot. The caution flew for the first time on lap three for the car of Brian Ballard. On the restart, Shaddy saw a challenge for third from Josh Reed, who had started back in the eighth position. That battle would be halted due to a caution on lap five for Greg Baker who had spun in turn two. As the field came to the green for the restart, Roberts continued to lead with McIntosh and Reed battling for second. Roberts would see his lead evaporate, as he slid over the banking in turn four, allowing McIntosh and Reed around him on lap 11. McIntosh took the lead for good on lap 12, and led the last three laps en route to the win. Reed, Shaddy, Roberts, and Paul Ortman rounded out the top five.
 
Jeremy Hines continued his winning ways in the Super Stock division, with a convincing win on Saturday night. Mike Cawood would lead the first lap, with Hines, Jason Hehman, and Matt Boknecht all breathing down his neck. The battle for the lead would soon become a frantic battle as, all four drivers wanted the point. On lap four, Hines would take the lead away from Hehman, leaving Hehman to try to fend off Cawood and Boknecht. Boknecht would grab the second spot, putting Cawood back to third, and Hehman to fourth. At the halfway mark Hines led Boknecht, Cawood, Hehman, and Jay Deckard. Cawood would get the second spot back from Boknecht with a pass on lap 12. Three laps later another move was made within the top five as Deckard moved around Hehman for fourth. With Hines more than a straightaway ahead of the field, it was smooth sailing to the checkers ahead of Boknecht, Cawood, Earl Plessinger, and Deckard.
 
The GMR NeSmith Crate Late Model feature once again saw Steve Barnett take the win, his fourth on the season. Steve Godsey led the first circuit with Barnett falling into the second position. Godsey would lead all the way up until lap nine, before Barnett made the pass for the lead. Barnett began to open up his lead as action started to take shape behind him. Shannon Reed moved into the third position with a pass on Jason Setser. Reed then moved around Godsey for the second position, with just a few laps remaining. Up front, Barnett easily motored on to the win ahead of Reed, Setser, Godsey, and Justin Shaw.
 
As is usually the case, the Bomber division did not disappoint, as Bub Cummings won a thriller. Cummings would have problems on the start, as he spun in turn four. He was awarded his position back, due to track officials determining that he had help in the process. When racing resumed, Jason Combs and Cummings proceeded to run side by side for the lead for the entire race. While the battle for the lead raged on, the duo went four wide with lapped traffic in the mid portion of the event. Both drivers made it through with ease, with Cummings getting the lead on lap 12. Combs took the lead back on lap 13, but not by much. Disaster would strike Combs, as he slid over the banking in turn four coming to the finish. This would allow Cummings to take the checkers ahead of Aaron Fields, Combs, Josh Turner, and Jamey Wilson.
 
The Mini Stock division made their debut at the Brownstown Speedway, with a familiar face in victory lane. Tim Rivers, a UMP Modified driver at Brownstown took his Mustang to victory lane, and did some victory donuts in the infield to celebrate. Rivers win did not come easily, as he had to fend off Jonathan Thomas and Shawn Bottorff. At one point midway through the race, the trio went three wide for the lead, with Thomas taking the worst of things. Thomas and Rivers made contact, with Thomas looping his car in turn three. After that, Rivers took the checkers for his first ever win at Brownstown Speedway. Bottorff, Brian Reynolds, Thomas, and Andy Cowles completed the top five.
 
Doug May picked up his second straight Hornet divison win with ease over Brent Lee, Doug Asbury, Ron Stephens, and Curtis Kaiser.
 
In Kid Modz action, The "Short Cool One" Bobby Pierce, the son of Dirt Late Model legend Bob Pierce took home his second win on the season at Brownstown. Zach Bunten, Joseph Hughs, and Heidi Goodman completed the field.

Brownstown Speedway Results for 6.7.08
 
Mark Barber and Shannon Reed led the field to the green in the GMR NeSmith/ICS Crate Late Model feature, with Barber leading lap one. Steve Godsey moved to the second position, getting around Reed on lap two. The caution flew for the first time on lap three, as Todd Cauffman spun in turn four. On the restart, Barber continued to lead, as disaster would strike Godsey. Godsey pulled into the infield with considerable damage to his front end. When racing resumed, a battle for fourth would take shape between Derek Fisher and Tommy Carlton. Carlton would snag the spot before the caution flew for a three car accident on lap seven. Steve Barnett started to make waves when racing resumed, moving around Reed for the spot. At the halfway point it was Barber leading followed by Barnett, Reed, Carlton, and Fisher. Barnett began to turn up the heat on Barber, driving hard into the turns to the outside. Barnett officially took the lead on lap 15, only to see Barber take it back one lap later. Barber would hold on to the lead, beating Barnett to the finish by less than a car length. Completing the top five were Barnett, Reed, Fisher, and Carlton.
 
The Bomber main event had Jason Combs and Aaron Fields pacing the field to the green flag. Combs would lead the first lap, with Bub Cummings battling Fields for second. Cummings got around Fields for the spot, and began to set his sights on Combs. Fields then saw Joe Godsey move around him for the third spot. Godsey moved up to battle with Cummings for the runner up spot just before halfway. At the halfway point Combs led Cummings, Godsey, Fields, and Ben Burton. By this time Combs held a five car length advantage over the field. With five to go, Godsey was still pressuring Cummings for the second position. Godsey took the second spot on the white flag lap, after a lengthy battle. Combs would cruise to the win, his first on the season. Finishing second was Cummings, who got around Godsey in a photo finish. Burton and Fields would round out the top five.
 
Shelby Miles and Clint Demoss made up the front row for the UMP Modified main event. Miles would lead the first circuit, only to see Demoss move around him for the point a couple of laps later. Miles then had to fend off Matt Bex, who took the second spot away from him on lap four. Bex wasn't done, as he moved past Demoss for the lead on lap five. Just as that happened, the caution flew for Brad Barrow, who slowed to a stop on the frontstretch. Demoss would have the lead given back to him as the field reverted to the last scored lap. On the restart, things began to heat up, as Matt Boknecht started to make his way towards the front, using the high side of the race track. Boknecht moved around Miles for the third position on lap nine. At halfway it was Demoss, Bex, Boknecht, Miles, and John Demoss rounding out the top five. On lap 12, Miles took back the third position from Boknecht, bringing John Demoss with him. It then became a three wide battle for the spot, with Boknecht ultimately grabbing the spot. Everything was looking great for Clint Demoss as he took the two to go signal almost seven car lengths ahead of Bex. That is until his driveshaft broke as he motored down the backstretch. Demoss limped into the infield, giving the lead and the win to Bex. Following Bex to the line was Boknecht, Miles, John Demoss, and Greg Amick.

Brownstown Speedway

Regular Show

May 24, 2008

 

The 20 lap Modified feature would see Jacoby Hines and Brandon Short lead the field to the green flag. Hines would lead the field around to lead lap one ahead of Short and Brad Barrow. Barrow hit the bottom of the race track to try to work around Short for the second position. Problems would strike the leader, as he broke while leading, this collected Short in the process. Barrow would inherit the lead, as the green flew for the restart. The restart would be brought back for an accident involving Derek Groomer and Dick Phillips in turn two. Matt Boknecht began to pressure Barrow for the lead before he shot high up the track in turn two, losing real estate to Barrow. Boknecht began to use the high side to reel in Barrow just before the caution flew again on lap six for Phillips and Randy Lee in turn four. Barrow held a three car advantage over Boknecht as the field clicked off lap seven. Boknecht shot back to the highside to move around Barrow for the lead on lap eight. At the halfway point it was Boknecht, Barrow, Jerry Davis, Jared Bailey, and Dale Ayers completing the top five. Boknecht began to stretch out his lead over Barrow to about five car lengths as the field took the five to go signal on lap 15. Chad Combs made his way back into the top five, as he moved around Ayers on lap 16. With two to go, Boknecht held a half straight lead over Barrow. It was smooth sailing from there, as Boknecht picked up the win over Barrow, Davis, Bailey, and Combs.

 

Shawn McIntosh and Robby Johnson led the Pure Stock field to the green for the feature event. McIntosh began to pull out to a healthy margin, stretching his lead to a half straight by lap four. Behind him, Tim Roberts, Josh Reed, and Brian Ballard traded paint for the third position, with Reed nabbing the spot. Reed then had to contend with Ballard, who moved under him for the third position. At the halfway point, McIntosh was over a full straightaway ahead of Johnson. Ballard pulled into the infield while running third on lap 12. With less than five to go, McIntosh had a half track lead before the caution flew for Reed, who had stopped outside of the track in turn one. With two laps to go, McIntosh held a six car lead over Johnson, who was in second. Johnson ran out of time, however, as McIntosh picked up the win over Johnson, Kyle McIntosh, Tim Roberts, and Brian Sims.

 

The Bomber feature would see Jason Combs and Ben Burton lead the field to the green. Combs would lead the field around to complete the first lap. A three way battle for second began to take shape between Bub Cummings, Burton, and Chris Wilson. The caution would fly on lap three, as Ronnie Pardue spun in turn two. On the restart, Combs and Cummings would battle for the lead, just as the caution flew again on lap four for Aaron Fields. Cummings moved to the high side to battle with Combs again for the lead, bringing Chris Wilson with him. Cummings grabbed the lead on lap five, as Wilson looked to take second away from Combs. Wilson took second from Combs on lap six, and set his sights on Cummings. Combs fought back to battle with Wilson for the runner up spot, taking it back on lap eight. While this was going on, Cummings had stretched his lead out to almost a half straight. At the halfway point it was Cummings, Wilson, Combs, Jamey Wilson, and Burton rounding out the top five. Combs and Chris Wilson began to reel in Cummings with just seven laps to go, bringing the margin to less than five car lengths. Wilson managed to snare second away from Combs while moving through lapped traffic with five to go. Combs and Wilson drew to within less than a car length with two to go.

 

The Late Model feature would see Cody Mahoney lead lap one, with Tim Prince, and Steve Barnett in tow. Terry Casey had started seventh, but was running second on lap three. Casey then began to pressure Mahoney for the lead as they completed lap four. Casey moved to the high side of the speedway, bringing Barnett with him to battle for the lead. They were three wide for a split second before Barnett lost some momentum coming out of turn two. This left Mahoney and Casey to run door to door for the lead before the caution flew on lap five for James Huff and Joe Janowski. On the restart, Barnett and Casey made contact running for the second position. Casey would hold the spot, leaving Barnett in third. The caution flew on lap seven as Chip Stitsworth spun in turn two. Justin Shaw and Rocky Hodges were involved in a separate incident in turn four. Mahoney would lead the field to the green for the restart. The caution flew on the restart, as debris was spotted in turn two. Casey muscled his way under Mahoney for the lead on the lap seven restart, and immediately shot out to a six car advantage over the field. Barnett moved around Mahoney for the second spot on lap eight. Casey and Barnett began to put distance between themselves and Mahoney. At the halfway point it was Casey, Barnett, Mahoney, Derek Fisher and Prince rounding out the top five. The caution flew once again on lap 13, as Stitsworth spun in turn two. During the caution, Barnett’s mount erupted in smoke, forcing him out of the event. With the green out for the restart, Casey began to pull away once again from the field, opening up a half straight lead over Mahoney. Behind him, Mike Jewell moved into the top five from his 16th starting position on lap 17. With five to go, Casey held a full straight advantage over Mahoney, who was a half straight ahead of Fisher in third. Casey had nothing to worry about, as he motored on to the victory, his second of the year at Brownstown. Rounding out the top five were Mahoney, Fisher, Prince, and Jewell.

 

Coby Moore had to fend off a hard charging Doug Asbury for the win in the Hornet division. Asbury threw a slide job on Moore coming to the checkers, they made contact, with Moore getting to the line first ahead of Asbury.

BROWNSTOWN SPEEDWAY
HOOSIER DIRT CLASSIC
May 10

The 20 Lap Super Stock feature would see Jeremy Hines and Earl Plessinger make up the front row. Hines would dart out to the point to lead lap number one with Plessinger and Lee Hobbs in tow. Alan Magner made it a three way battle for the second spot between he, Hobbs, and Plessinger. The caution would fly on lap three, for debris in turn four. On the restart, Jay Deckard would loop his mount in turn two bringing out the caution. When the green flew on the restart, Hobbs moved around Plessinger for the second spot, bringing Magner with him to third. The caution flew once again on lap four, as Tyler Cain spun in turn four. Magner would pull his entry into the infield with a broken rear end. When the green flew, Plessinger dropped off the turn two banking, losing several positions. This would move Winston Howe up to the third position. Up front, Hines enjoyed a four car length advantage over Hobbs. At the halfway point, it was Hines, Hobbs, Howe, Jason Thomas, and Darrell Burton rounding out the top five. Hines would move into lapped traffic on lap 11, allowing Hobbs to close in to within two car lengths. Hines and Hobbs would clear the backmarkers with five laps to go. By this time, Hines held about a five car advantage on Hobbs. With four to go, Hobbs pulled in to within two car lengths only to see his night end with two laps to go with an engine problem. Hines would then cruise to the victory ahead of Howe, Burton, Thomas, and Plessinger rounded out the top five.

The Bomber feature started with Jason Combs and Josh Turner on the front row. Combs, Turner, and Bub Cummings would take it three wide at the line to complete lap one. Combs then took the lead all to his self as the field completed lap two. Cummings then took the second spot away from Turner, bringing Jamey Wilson with him around Turner. Wilson then grabbed second away from Cummings, with Woods going by Cummings for third. Wilson and Combs made contact for the lead, Combs fell back a bit, and a four wide battle ensued for the lead between Chris Wilson, Ben Burton, Woods, and Cummings. Jamey Wilson inherited the lead as the field bunched up for the restart on lap five. Wilson then pulled off before the green could fly, giving the lead to Woods. On the restart, Woods jumped out to about a five car advantage on Chris Wilson as the field completed lap six. A battle for fourth began to brew between Cummings and Turner with Turner taking fourth. At the same time, a three way battle for the lead between Wilson, Woods, and Ben Burton began to take shape on lap nine. Burton would go from third to first at the halfway point. Wilson then nabbed the lead back away from Burton on lap 11. Burton then led lap 12 by a bumper on Burton. Wood's night ended as he pulled off the track on lap 14. Turner then gave up the third spot, as he pulled pitside on lap 15. This left Chris WIlson and Burton to battle for the lead with four to go. As the lead duo took the white flag, Wilson seemed to have broke going into turn one, looping his mount in turn two, bringing out the yellow on lap 19. A one lap shootout was needed, as Burton would lead Greg Roberts, Cummings, and David Stephenson to the white flag. Burton would lead the final lap to the victory followed by Roberts, Stephenson, Cummings, and Aaron Fields rounded out the top five.

The UMP Modified feature would see John Demoss and Matt Boknecht lead the field to the green. Demoss would lead the field to complete lap one. Matt Bex moved in to battle with Boknecht for the second spot. Boknecht then got shuffled back to the fifth position as Shelby Miles and Lee Hobbs got around him. Bex and Miles waged war for the second spot on lap five. Bex held on to the second spot, as Hobbs moved in to battle Miles for third. Miles would hold off Hobbs for the spot as they completed lap six. The field began to spread out as Demoss took the halfway signal on lap 10 ahead of Bex, Miles, Hobbs, and Boknecht. The yellow would fly on lap 11, as Keaton Streeval spun coming out of turn two. On the restart, Demoss would take the green, with a battle for second shaping up between Miles and Bex. The caution would slow that battle down, as Nathan Voorhies and Jared Bailey spun in turn one. The green flew on the restart with Demoss leading Bex, Miles, Boknecht, and Hobbs into turn one. With five to go, Miles tried to peek to the outside of Bex to take second, but Bex was too strong on the bottom of the speedway. Behind them, Boknecht moved around Hobbs for fourth. Boknecht then took third away from Miles with three to go. Demoss took the two to go signal about four car lengths ahead of Bex. The caution would fly just as the white flag began to fly for Streeval, who had stalled on the backstretch. A green, white, checkered finish was needed as Demoss took the green on the restart. Bex began to pressure Demoss just as the caution would fly for Hobbs, who had stopped in turn four. On the restart, Demoss lost control of his mount in turn two, and spun, bringing out the yellow. Bex inherited the lead with just two laps remaining. The yellow would fly again as Sam Lee stalled his mount outside of turn one. Bex lead the field around to take the white flag about three car lengths ahead of Boknecht. Bex took the checkers with Boknecht, Miles, Brad Barrow, and Clint Demoss rounding out the top five.

Nelson Gingery led all 15 laps of the Pure Stock main event, not before enduring a late race charge from Seth Hull and Tim Roberts at the end of the event. Shawn McIntosh, Robby Johnson, Kyle McIntosh, and Greg Baker rounded out the field.

Brownstown Speedway Results and Stories for April 5th, 2008
 

Fighting extreme muddy conditions and wet grounds, track officials and crew worked diligently and managed to get the first points races of the 2008 season in without fail. With four classes on hand, a pill draw system was used to line up heats and speed the program along. Granted, without the intermission before the consis, and the numerous yellows, races would have been over by 10:00PM. A pat on the back for the officials is well deserved. Clint Demoss, Jeremy Hines, Bub Cummings, and Shawn McIntosh all visited victory lane to cap off the nights activities.
 


 

The Pure Stock feature would see Shawn McIntosh and Tim Roberts lead the field to the green flag. McIntosh bolted out to the early lead with Roberts and Kyle McIntosh running second and third. The field started to spread out as they clicked off lap five. McIntosh continued to lead followed by Roberts, Kyle McIntosh, and Josh Reed. At the halfway point, the field remained the same as a caution flew for a safety issue on the Greg Baker car. The caution would fly on the restart, as Roberts looped his mount coming out of turn two to bring out the caution. The team cars of McIntosh and McIntosh led the field to the green on the restart, with Shawn leading Jeff. With five to go it was Shawn McIntosh, Jeff McIntosh, Josh Reed, Mike Keller, and Greg Baker completing the top five.

 


Kent Robinson and Matt Boknecht would lead the field to the green in the UMP Modified main event. Boknecht would lead lap one, with Robinson and Clint Demoss in tow. Demoss would then work under Robinson for the second spot on lap three. Demoss grabbed the position, putting Robinson back to third. Demoss then pulled up to the back bumper of Boknecht to challenge for the lead on lap four. Demoss and Boknecht ran side by side for the lead on lap six, with Demoss on the bottom and Boknecht up high. Demoss officially took the lead on lap seven. Demoss opened up about a two car length advantage over Boknecht as they took the halfway signal. Robinson was a half a straightaway back in third. Lee Hobbs ran fourth, with a battle between Greg Amick and John Demoss brewing for fifth. Amick took the spot on lap 11 and set sail for Hobbs. Amick got around Hobbs on the bottom on lap 13 to take fourth. With five to go, it was Demoss leading Boknecht by four car lengths with Robinson third. Hobbs took the fourth spot back away from Amick, bringing John Demoss with him to fifth. Amick then dropped out of the race with three laps to go. With two laps to go, Demoss had stretched his lead out to a half straightaway on Boknecht. Boknecht would not challenge Demoss at the checkers, as Demoss won ahead of Boknecht, Robinson, Hobbs, and John Demoss

Cummings took off once again on the restart and opened up a three car advantage over Jamey Wilson. The caution would fly once again on lap seven, this time for Jason Combs on the frontstretch. Cummings led the field down once again, as Jamey Wilson slid over the bank in turn two, losing the second spot to Chris Wilson. The caution flag would fly again on lap 12 as a safety issue for Josh Turner. Turner had broken something in the front end. After two failed restarts, Cummings once again led the field to the lap 12 restart. With five to go, it was Cummings, Chris Wilson, Jamey Wilson, Greg Roberts, and Josh Hayes rounding out the top five. Roberts looked to the inside of Jamey Wilson to battle for third as the field took the two to go signal. The field would slow once again on lap 18, as Kyle Stephenson spun in turn three. Cummings took the green on the restart, and led the field around to the white flag. It was all Cummings, as he took the checkers ahead of Chris Wilson, Roberts, Jamey Wilson, and Hayes.

 


Jeremy Hines and Chris Hillman would pace the field for the UMP Super Stock feature. The original start would be brought back due to a Marty Cooper spin. The restart would be a clean one with Hines bolting out to the lead. Hines led lap one, with Jay Deckard moving around Hillman to take second. Hillman then dropped over the turn two banking, losing several positions. Officially Hillman fell back to fifth. The caution flew again on lap three, as Tom Ault spun in turn four. Due to going back to the last scored lap, Hillman retained his third position. On the restart, Hines darted out to a four car lead over Deckard. The caution would fly again on lap four, as Rick Hines spun in front of the field in turn one. During the yellow, Hillman pulled out of the race while running third. When the green flew, Hines and Deckard pulled away from the field as a battle for third took place between Tyler Cain and Alan Magner. Magner held on to the third spot, as back up front Deckard pulled alongside of Hines for the lead. Deckard grabbed the lead away from Hines coming down the frontstretch on lap seven. Hines then dove back under Deckard to regain the lead as they took the halfway signal on lap 10. The top five at this point were Hines, Deckard, Magner, Cain, and Jason Thomas. On the restart, Hines jumped out to the lead as Deckard jumped a rut in turn one allowing Magner by for second. The car on the move at this point was Nathan Patman. Patman had started 19th on the grid, and was beginning to work on Jason Thomas for fifth. The field would slow again on lap 14, as Brandon Routier spun in turn two. The lap 14 restart saw Hines move out to a two car advantage on Magner going down the backstretch. Another caution flew before the field could complete the lap, as Jason Thomas and Jeremy Burton both spun in turn two. The restart would be brought back, as Hines hit the gas a tad bit early. Hines hit the gas perfect on the second try, leading the field around to complete lap 15. With three to go, Hines had built up a half straight lead over Magner, who was busy trying to fend off Deckard for the second spot. Magner held steady, and kept the second spot as the field took the white flag. Up front, it was all Hines, taking the win ahead of Magner, Deckard, Cain, and Patman rounding out the top five.

Terry Casey Races His Way from 16th to Win 11th Annual “Indiana Icebreaker” at Brownstown Speedway

 

BROWNSTOWN, IN (March 29, 2008) – Many people thought that when the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series left East Bay Raceway Park back in February that Terry Casey would be out of his comfort zone traveling for the first time on the road in his career and racing on tracks that wouldn’t suit his style but Saturday Night at the Hancock Core sponsored 11th Annual “Indiana Icebreaker” at Brownstown Speedway that adage was thrown out the window as Casey came from his 16th starting spot to win the event on a dry-slick, but fast and racy track.  The ever-improving Casey grabbed the lead on lap from Bart Hartman and pulled away for the $10,000 victory before a capacity crowd.

 

Trailing Casey to the finish line was early pacesetter, Justin Rattliff, the 13th starting Hartman, 3-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series National Champion, Earl Pearson Jr. and 24th place starter, Steve Casebolt.

 

Rattliff looked to be the car to beat early on in the 50-lap affair as the ’07 Lucas Oil Rookie of the Year looked strong from the get go as fellow front row starter Wes Steidinger and long-time Brownstown Speedway veteran John Gill in the Warrior House Car taking the top three spots from the outset of the race.

 

A car on the move in this first portion of the race was Rohn Moon.  Moon a former World Karting Association Champion roared from his seventh starting spot to momentarily take third from Steidinger who had slipped a spot when Gill went around him a lap earlier, but one circuit later Steidinger was back into that spot re-passing Moon.

 

The first caution of the race came out on lap seven and was for Illinois drivers Dennis Erb Jr. and Billy Drake in turn number four.  On the restart Rattliff resumed his position on the point with 11th starting Don O’Neal shooting up to second place when the green flag came back out again.  With ten laps in the record books Rattliff was starting to see pressure from O’Neal with Steidinger, Gill and Earl Pearson Jr. now in the thick of things as he was up to fifth place.

 

The second caution for Kevin Claycomb would slow the action once more on lap 12.  Again on the restart Rattliff would be out in front followed closely by O’Neal as the race would really heat up even further than it was as 13th place starter Bart Hartman made an unbelievable move on the outside on lap 16 to come out of nowhere to grab second from O’Neal.

 

Hartman’s high flying antics carried him all the way to the lead two laps later as he stormed around Rattliff to take over the lead.  Another car following Hartman up through the pack was 16th starting Terry Casey.  Casey would pass O’Neal for third and then his surge would allow him to overtake Rattliff on lap 19, a lap before the final caution of the race would come out for Matt Miller, whose car had stalled just off the main straightaway as he was heading to the pit area.

 

With 30 laps left in the race it looked like it was going to be a shootout to the finish among the top five drivers as Hartman, Casey, Rattliff, O’Neal and Pearson were loaded for bear each seeking the $10,000 first place check.

 

On the final restart of the race Hartman was still riding the rim of the race with Casey developing his strategy racing in the middle of the track as Pearson got a good restart as he moved by Rattliff for third on lap 21 as the top two were starting to pull away.

 

Hartman’s lead after the restart would last until the 24th circuit when Casey made his move coming off of turn number four to take his first lead of the race.  The two would go door to door for two more laps until Casey cleared Hartman.

 

With 20 laps to go Casey was starting to gain full control of the race as Rattliff had regained the third spot from Pearson and he then caught up to and passed Hartman for second.  But at this point Casey was building his lead as the frontrunners were entering traffic for the first time all race long.

 

Casey continued to stretch his lead in the waning laps as Rattliff had pulled away enough from Hartman to build some precious car lengths between the two.  Hartman meanwhile had his hands full trying to hold off both Pearson and Casebolt, who had to take a provisional to make the starting field.

 

Those three drivers had an eventful final ten laps as Hartman was able to hold both of them off to gain some valuable points.  Pearson barely was able to fend off Casebolt, who drove a terrific race as the reigning Eldora Dream winner looked good in coming from dead last to gain a top five finish.

 

As chief starter Tim Montgomery’s checkered flag waved Casey race across the line well out leading the final 27 laps for his second career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series triumph.  The win also allowed the 39-year-old New London, WI native to take over the championship point’s standings lead and the Quarter Master Rookie of the Year points lead.  Rattliff, who led 17 laps, finished a solid second.

 

In the Lucas Oil victory lane, Casey was joined by several well wishers as he would say that maybe his critics that he couldn’t win on a dryslick track were a thing of the past.  “I got so tired of hearing that down at East Bay that I couldn’t drive on this type of track, we won down there from the pole, but I don’t care a win is a win, the car was just awesome tonight I spent a week down at Rayburn’s putting this new one together I’ve been customer cars ever since I got back from Florida,” said Casey who was joined by his crew chief wife Lori and engine builder, Bill Schlieper. 

 

Coming from Wisconsin where they’re still several inches of snow on the ground Casey was just glad to be racing in weather that was just a little warmer than at home.  “I come down here and people blame me for bringing the cold weather with me,” laughed Casey who gladly will take the prize money back to the freezing temperatures in Badger Land.

 

Rattliff’s second place was satisfying for the 20-year-old driver.  “The car worked good for about 20 laps and we dropped back a few spots and got back into second and we were running down Casey, but he got away from me in the last 15 laps and we fell behind a half a straightaway or so, congrats to Casey on the him, we felt we had a car capable of winning, but we’ll take second.”

 

Hartman’s daring moves a quarter of the way through the event may have been his downfall as he may have very well ended up in victory lane instead of Casey. “We had a little bit different tire combination and I really didn’t want to be in the lead when we were cause I thought the car was going to fade and we did a little bit, we had that little episode in turn two and I told myself just settle down, Terry and Justin ran a good and they had a little harder tire on than I did and that was the difference,” said Hartman who moved up the seventh in the points after Brownstown.

 

Casey’ winning C.J. Rayburn Monte Carlo SS is sponsored by Arnie Ranta Motorsports, Brewer Concrete Construction and Arnie’s Sleds and Trailers and has a Bill and John Schlieper Pro Power Engine under the hood.

 

Rattliff who also drives a C.J. Rayburn Chassis with a Pro Power engine moved to fifth in the points in the James Rattliff owned Rattliff Motors sponsored car with Hartman’s Imler’s Poultry of Altoona, PA sponsored Rocket Monte Carlo SS finishing just ahead of the Bobby Labonte Racing/Life Long Locks/MasterSbilt Dodge entry of Pearson as Casebolt in his Fatheadz.com/Rocket GTO is now second to Casey in the championship points standings.

 

Completing the top ten were Don O’Neal, Mike Marlar, John Gill, Steve Barnett and Dennis Erb Jr.

 

In preliminary action John Gill was the PRC fast qualifier for the 61 entrants with a lap of 13.798 seconds.  Wayne Chinn, Justin Rattliff, John Gill, Matt Miller, Brian Birkhofer and Wes Steidinger won the Hawk Brake, AFCO Racing Products and Tiger Rear Ends sponsored heat races.  The Mason Racin’ rebel Shock Dyno and Quarter Master sponsored B-mains went to Dennis Erb Jr. and Steve Barnett.

 

The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series will next be in action with a three-day jaunt to the State of Georgia starting on Thursday Night, April 3rd at the Swainsboro Raceway in Swainsboro, GA for a $7,000 to win event, followed on Friday Night, April 4th for a $10,000 to win race at Screven Motor Speedway in Sylvania, GA and the weekend tops off at the Golden Isles Speedway in Brunswick, GA on Saturday Night, April 5th for a $10,000 to win race that will taped by SPEED Channel and shown on a date and time to be announced in the future.
