Conneaut, OH (August 26, 2011) Only two nights of racing remain in the 2011 season at Raceway 7.
Tonight there will be regular racing with all four point’s battles winding down. The Evergreen Lake Park Campground FASTRAK Late Models has been decided with Max Blair dominating the season and wrapping up the championship last week with a second place finish, only the third time in 2011 that he has been defeated. Second place in points is Dave Airgood, who got his first-ever FASTRAK feature win two weeks ago but Airgood trails Blair by 188 markers. Even if Airgood were to win both heat and features he would only pick up 150 points even if Blair were not present. However, Airgood only holds second by 16 points over Bill Cunningham Sr, a veteran with championships on his resume.
The Zimmer’s Service Center E-Mods are a tighter race as Joel Watson has had some hard finishes after leading by a large margin earlier in the season. 2010 champion Russ Dunn trails by only 42 points. Both drivers have three feature wins on the season. Third is Percy McDonald, 27 points behind Dunn. McDonald was the 2009 champion.
Chris Withers has a 56 point edge over second running Ed Bolyard, a former champion, in the Campbell’s Mini-Storage Street Stocks. Joe Rohrer, still looking for his first-ever win at Raceway 7 is third, 24 markers behind Bolyard. Withers has two wins this season while both Bolyard and Rohrer are winless thus far in a season that has seen five first-time winners in this class.
Jonny Boyd has won the lion’s share of event in the Son Construction Mini Stocks and thusly has a huge lead and will be tough to stop from repeating his 2010 championship. 81-points separate the leader from his nearest competitor, Bud Sergeff, who holds a slim 10-point lead over John Boyd Sr. The younger Boyd has six wins on the season while Sergeff and Boyd Sr each have one.
Weather permitting, gates open every Friday at 5:30 PM with pill draw cut off at 7 PM and racing at 7:30 PM. VIP suites are available for rental for $250 a night which includes eight general admissions passes. Admission is set for $10 for adults, kids
