July 19th, 2009

Shasta Raceway Park was pleased to welcome the Mini Cup and Baby Grand racers to the track for the first time. Despite a light car count, these young racers really put on a great show.  There were more lead changes and spot-swapping than is seen in most late model races with 15 cars ! Got to hand it to these future stars, they really know how to drive ! Special thanks to all the drivers who made the tow out to race. Dylan Hutchinson dominated the Baby Grand division by setting fast time, winning the Trophy Dash and the main event. He also held sway in the Mini Cups battling with Chase Grigsby side by side till a backstretch spin relegated him to the back of the pack.  He charged back to a 3 place finish behind winner Chase Grigsby and second place Brent Curran.

Although they were a last minute addition  to this week's schedule the Franklin Auto Part Bombers intrepid drivers put on one of the best shows of the season.  At the center of the attention were Bobby Crowell, Lee Welch and Robert Pacey.  During the 30 lap main event which had the cars going 15 laps clockwise (backwards) then 15 laps counterclockwise,  Lee Welch started on the pole but quickly Crowell's #89 joined him at the front and they raced a side-by-side dozen laps. When the cars were reversed, this time "Corndog Crowell" had a dozen lap battle with "Racey" Robert Pacey.  After a hard fought battle and a clean as a whistle pass, Pacey took home the trophy for the win.  He also set a possible track record for the most Fast Time Qualifyings in the Bomber Division.

The Mini Stock division had some great racing too.  Ken Krause #8 set the fast time of the night with a 18.289 second circuit.  Scotty Murphy, returning in his new car, won the trophy dash over Nanci Wright.  Grandpa Bob and Scotty Murphy won their respective heat races and young Christopher Kuska took home his very first Feature Event Win !

Hornet results will be available asap

July 3rd, 2008 - No Fireworks, in the Sky, That Is
Although the traditional 3rd of July "Anderson Explodes" firework show was postponed due to the extreme fire danger, the "on-track" fireworks made up for the aerial display.  In Late Model action, Derek Copeland set the fast time at a super fast 16.939 seconds.  Trophy Dash saw Copeland, Eric Gannon, Alan Pyszora and Bill Lancaster battling for 4 laps.  Despite some strong nudges from Lancaster Eric Gannon held off the pack to take the Trophy Dash Win.  The Main Event saw some major contact between Gary Pyszora and son, Alan which took both frustrated drivers to the back of the pack.  The top 3 runners, Bill Lancaster in the lead, Eric Gannon and Derek Copeland fought a long hard race but in the white flag lap Derek took an opportunity to dive under Lancaster to take the checkered flag.  This was the second win for Copeland in only 4 starts in the Hen House sponsored Late Model.

Modifieds - it just keeps getting better.  This week saw 11 cars fill the field with new comers Tyler Wolf and Keith Bloom Jr. running in the class.  When not running at Shasta, Tyler Wolf runs a 410 Sprint Car at Chico's Silver Dollar Speedway.   Bloom, like Wolf, comes from the Red Bluff Outlaws Dirt Kart background, but Bloom has moved in the Wingless Spec Sprint division at Silver Dollar and has maintained a top points position all season.  Fast time for the division was set by Kyle Borden in the #39X and in the Trophy Dash long-time Shasta Modified driver Kelly Peacock held off last years champ, Keven Brink to take the trophy win.  In the Main Event Charlie Kramm took to the front of the pack quickly with Kelly Peacock in tow.  But Kramm's 6K MetroPCS sponsored car held off the whole field to take a much celebrated win.

Mini Stocks - Dale Stelt took his wicked-fast VW bug around the track for the fastest lap in qualifying.  He was pitted against Nanci Wright, Ken Krause and Scotty Murphy for the Trophy Dash.  But Scotty Murphy, who just returned to racing after his car suffered a major accident took the win.  The Main Event saw some awesome racing and Ken Krause took the flag just ahead of Stelt and Christopher Kuska.

The Bombers - Robert Pacey once again set fast time in the class - with a 20.034 second lap. But it was young David Dillenger who took the honors in the Trophy Dash. David continued his winning night by also winning the Main Event.






JUNE 28, 2008 - Smoky and Smokin - A Night at the Races in Shasta
Despite thick smoke from the hundreds of fires burning in the area, intrepid fans braved the heat and the smoke to be witness to some of the best racing of the seasons.   There was an EPIC battle between Bill Lancaster and Gary Pyzsora during the Late Model main event. - READ MORE...

Points are updated through the June 14th event.
Attention Hornet teams & Boat Race Competitors.  The Shasta District Fair is having the Outlaw Monster Trucks come to Shasta Raceway Park on July 12th.  The Hornets will also run that evening with a split main event, 10 laps right way, & 10 laps opposite way.  First place will pay $50, Second $30, and Third will pay $20.   This will be an SRP Points race for the Hornets.  Also the same evening July 12th will feature an invitational  'Boat Race.'

Congratulations
to the Shasta District Fair Night Race Winners: #2 Eric Gannon garnered his second LM main event of 2008, likewise 2007 SRP Modified champion #23 Kevin Brink charged to his second win of the season.  2007 Bomber Champ #89 Bobby Crowell captured his third win of the year.   In the fan-friendly Hornet Division #68 Joe Knox brought home the trophy.  Hot-shot Laurie Weber won the first ever Hornet Powder Puff event in the #2 Alvin Gitchell mount.

For those of you concerned about Jeremy Ammon and the burns he suffered during the refueling of the #15 Late Model last Saturday Night, I talked to him yesterday and he is home recuperating.  He did incur second degree burns on his lower leg.  Note that this is the second refueling fire at SRP this year.  It is speculated that ESD (electro-static discharge) was the ignition source for both incidents.   My position is that the SRP racing community will learn from Jeremy's injury.   On Monday Rod Pedersen and I went to the Anderson Fire District and met with Chief Joe Piccinini to discuss the two incidents and give them background info on how teams are equipped and how they are currently doing refueling.  AFD has agreed to research and report back to us.  As a stop gap measure starting with the June 28 event all race teams will be required to have at least a 2.5 lbs fire extinguisher in their pit, staged and ready (not in your trailer) all teams that refuel in the SRP pit area will be required to do a two-person fueling operation.  Crew member #1 will do the fueling and crew member #2 will be ready with an extinguisher in hand in case a fueling accident occurs.   Both refueling crew members must be 18 years or older.  This is now the official fueling/refueling policy of Shasta Raceway Park.
