ERB TAKES THE BOHLANDER 100 AT PEORIA
SPEEDWAY
by Jeff Adams
(PEORIA, IL) 2007 UMP National Champion Dennis Erb of Carpentersville dueled
2007 NASCAR Illinois State Champion Tim Lance, for 50 laps, before finally
making the pass for the lead on lap 87and holding on to win the “Don Bohlander
100” for Parkinson’s research at Peoria Speedway Saturday night.
On a cool night, the action was red-hot, with a new track configuration proving
to be nearly record-breaking fast. In time trials, Davenport, IA driver Brian
Harris missed the all-time track record by a mere .016 with a lap of 12.481. The
top 6 qualifiers were locked into the feature event, and re-drew for the top 6
starting positions. Heat races were won by Steve Lance, Jr. and Charley Hess,
setting the 20 car starting field.
Lance and Hebron, IN driver Shawn Toczek paced the field for the start of the
100 lap feature, with Lance finally getting the jump after 2 aborted re-starts.
Lance held the lead over several caution periods until Erb was on his back
bumper on lap 35. Erb started pressuring Lance heavily at the mid-way point, and
the pair raced each other hard until Erb finally made the pass stick on lap 87.
Erb held on for the $4,000 win, Lance finished 2nd, with Ryan Dauber,
Lance, Jr., and Wes Steidinger rounding out the top 5. Only 7 cars were running
at the checkered flag.
Joe Markle won the Sportsman feature, with Matt Musgrave winning the Hornet
feature. The races were held in honor of 10 time Track Champion Don Bohlander,
who has been stricken with Parkinson’s Disease. Over $14,000 was raised for
Parkinson’s research and will be donated in Bohlanders’ name.
Peoria Speedway will host a regular program next Saturday night featuring Late
Models, Modifieds, Sportsman, Street Stocks, Bombers and Hornets.
