HOLLINGSWORTH WINS STARLITE 6CYL AND SCRAMBLE;

McDANIEL WINS FIRST 4CYL FEATURE

Hanover, PA (07/24/10) – “This is my first 600 win.” explained York’s Travis Scott after climbing out of his machine in victory lane. Scott won his heat race and started on the pole for the feature. On the start, Scott grabbed the lead and 3rd starting Chase Dietz took second.

On lap 4, the caution flew for several cars stopped in turns three and four. On the restart, 3rd running Tim Dietz was clipped in turn two and lost 7 spots. This gave Kyle Ganoe the third spot. Ganoe got by Chase Dietz for second on lap six and set his sights on Scott, who had pulled away from the field. The second caution flew for Dwayne Gutshall on lap 16.

Ganoe tried a move to the inside of Scott for the lead on the restart, but Scott sustained the lead to claim his first ever 600cc Micro Sprint win. Also on the restart, Tim Dietz dove under Brian Racine for the fourth spot. On lap 18, Isaac Sneeringer and Tim Dietz got by Ganoe to finish second and third. Brian Racine was fourth with 11th-starting Brock Zearfoss completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Ganoe, Chase Dietz, Jimmy Brookens (who flipped in his heat), Tanner Hunsicker, and Eric Bodine.

Heat winners for the 21 600cc Micro Sprints were Tim Dietz and Scott.

Bill Laughman bested the 270cc Micro Sprint field in the 20-lap feature to claim his third win of the season in his Rustic Iron Hair Salon sponsored #2. Laughman was scheduled to start 6th for the feature and worked his way to the runner-up position by the second lap.

Laughman followed leader and polesitter Matt Bower for the first 6 circuits before making the race winning pass under Bower in turn one. Bower held on to the second spot until 9th-starting Brian Marriott passed him on the inside on the backstretch of lap 18. With two laps remaining, Marriott was unable to challenge Laughman for the race lead.

Marriott crossed second with Bower, last week’s winner Jim Still, and Nik Gower rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Dave Schreiber, 15th-starting Chris Melton, Michael Ertter, Chris Kennedy and Steve Daron.

Heats for the 15 270cc Micro Sprints were won by Bower and Marriott.

Lucas Montgomery claimed his second win of the year at Trail-Way in the 20-lap Legend Car feature event. Montgomery started fourth and worked his way to the top spot to lead the first lap. After a lap 6 caution, the battle was for the second spot. Scott Houdeshall, Bill Diehl and Harlon Leppo battled three wide for the second position.

Diehl won that battle, but on lap 14, Leppo made a pass to claim the second spot. Two laps later Diehl grabbed the second spot back and held on to cross second behind Montgomery.

Leppo, Houdeshall, and Tim Henry completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were Greg Burd, Scott Gobrecht, Brent Marquis, Richard Miller, and Pat McDermott.

Heats for the 16 Central PA Legend Cars were won by Gobrecht and Burd.

Points leader Steve Hollingsworth grabbed the lead from polesitter Coty Marsh on the frontstretch to lead lap one. Hollingsworth was pressured by Jimmy Tyson and Wes Kellison throughout the 12-lap feature, but Hollingsworth maintained the top spot to pick up his third win in the Starlite 6-cylinder division.

Steve Hollingsworth claimed his second win of the night in the 12-lap 4 and 6cyl Scramble feature event. Justin Mitchell led all but the final lap when he was involved in a caution with a lap car with one lap to go. Hollingsworth was running in a distant second, but inherited the lead after the incident. This was Steve’s third Scramble win of the year.

Wes McDaniel claimed his first win of the year in the 12-lap Starlite 4-cylinder feature. Brad Kress started on the pole and lead until he suffered a flat tire while leading with 2 laps to go. McDaniel had been pressuring Kress throughout the race and got a lucky break when Kress retired to the pits.

Next Friday (7/30), the 358 Sprint Cars are on the schedule. The Thundercars, Limited Stocks are also on the schedule. The Fantasy Fan Contest will also be taking place. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

DUNCAN EARNS FIRST 358 SPRINT WIN AT TRAIL-WAY
Gallagher, Neff, Bennett, Hanson add victories

Hanover, PA (07/23/10) - While chaos seemed to occur behind him, New Oxford's Mike Duncan kept his Mentzer's Remodeling-Hofbrauhaus No. 11D pointed forward, even as he was wondering if the 25-lap 358 sprint feature Friday night at Trail-Way Speedway would ever end.
"On the scoreboard, it read eight laps and I said, 'Man, it feels like I ran the whole race.' I'm out of shape," he said of the red flag which came that early in the event.
However, Duncan, driving only his 13th race in a 358 super sprint - the only race car he's ever driven, held off the field, expanded to 25 cars by track officials to avoid a consolation race, to claim his first career victory.
And Duncan had to celebrate by himself in a sense because two of the third-generation racer's biggest fans, his father and grandfather, were on vacation.
"Actually, my dad's in the hospital with kidney stones and a urinary tract infection, and they're in North Carolina," Duncan said.
However, after hearing of Duncan's victory, both will feel much better, if only because Duncan avoided some of the mayhem behind him.
Following a false start, the race's first seven laps included four caution flags. Then, on lap eight, the car of runner-up Scott Fisher rolled in the fourth corner, starting a six-car melee. Before the restart, one of the drivers involved, Kyle Moody, stopped his car on the frontstretch to ask about the track officials' order to go to the rear of the field. As he stopped, his car was struck by the No. 1S of Logan Schuchart, bending the front wing of Schuchart's car and eventually ending his night. Meanwhile, for failure to go to the rear, Moody was relegated to an 18th-place finish.
Meanwhile, Hanover's Tim Wagaman was third on the restart and his first-turn slide job on runner-up Zach Eucolano put him in second. For the rest of the way, interrupted for a final time when Joe Trone Jr. spun on the 16th lap, Wagaman put pressure on Duncan, but he stayed in front.
"I was actually lifting a little bit early going into the turns because I thought if I could lay back, I could let them lapped guys stay ahead of me," Duncan said, "But Timmy showed me his nose and I thought, 'Uh oh, I better get going.'"
Wagaman took second place ahead of track points leader Dale Hammaker, 21st-starting Steve Owings, Brad McClelland, Billy Dietrich, Eucolano, Mike Bittinger, Jessie Morrison and Troy Becker. Moody, McClelland and Duncan won heat races.
In other action, Hanover's Sam Gallagher won a wild 20-lap thundercar feature which was stopped after 17 laps when only three of the 11 cars were still running by that point. Gallagher took the lead from Justin Bittle on the eighth lap and led runner-up Will Walls and Brian Walls at the finish. Bittle and Rick Weaver were credited with fourth and fifth places, respectively. Kyle Martin won the heat race.
Bryan Neff claimed the lead of the 4-cylinder stock feature when Ed Hollenbach became the first car to drop out and Neff held command the rest of the way in the 20-lap race. Eric Hollenbach took second ahead of Troy Hostetter, Dennis Christ Jr. and Austin Kirby. Jeremy Ott and Ed Hollenbach took heat wins.
Doug Bennett took the lead of fhe Xtreme stock feature with two laps remaining and won the 20-lap feature over the driver he passed for the top spot, Patrick McClane. Bennett's teammate, Gary Calimer Jr., was third ahead of Tim Hahn and Brent Hake. Bennett and Jeremy Stremmel won heat races.
Daryl Hanson charged from 11th starting spot to pass Brian Walls on the final lap and capture the 12-lap limited stock feature. Kyle Rohrbaugh placed third ahead of Jason Chronister and Matt Chronister, who rallied after hitting the wall early in the feature. Lem Crawford and Jason Chronister took heat victories.

Tomorrow (7/24), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints are on the schedule with the Legend Cars, Scramble Cars, Starlite 4 and 6-cylinder Oval. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

HOFF CLAIMS FIRST CAREER WIN AND TRACK RECORD;

STILL FINDS VICTORY LANE IN 2010; WELSH BESTS CLASSIC CARS;

LAWRENCE BEST IN STRICTLY STOCKS; KELLISON WINS 6CYL OVAL;

Hanover, PA (07/17/10) – Shane Hoff claimed his first career 600cc Micro Sprint win in the 20-lap feature at Trail-Way Speedway Saturday night. But not only did Hoff pick up the win, Hoff also broke the 5 year old 20-lap record as the race went flag to flag.

“I couldn’t believe I pulled it off!” exclaimed Shane Hoff when asked by announcer Scott Martin what he was thinking when he saw the checkered flag fly for him.

Hoff started on the pole for the feature after finishing second in his heat. Hoff grabbed the lead into turn one and never looked back. Hoff pulled away from second runner Brad Weber and the rest of the field. At the half way mark, Hoff had more than a 2-second lead over Weber and the rest of the field.

Hoff entered lapped traffic on lap 13 and over the final laps Weber started to close. Weber was within two carlengths of Hoff with two laps remaining. But Hoff hit all his marks and was able to hold-off Weber to claim the win.

Weber crossed second with Jim Young, last week’s winner Brian Racine, and J.B. Cunningham rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth were point leader and 12th-starting Jimmy Brookens, Isaac Sneeringer, Dwayne Gutshall, Tim Dietz, and Skylar Felkner.

Hoff put his name the in record books with a 20-lap time of 5 minutes, 8.87 seconds. The previous record was 5:20.28 held by Aaron Spahr since August 20, 2005.

Heat winners for the 17 600cc Micro Sprint Cars were Weber and Young.

Jim Still found his way to victory lane for the first time in the 2010 season. But Still’s win didn’t come easy. Polesitter Austen Treuchet took the lead on the start and came across to lead the first lap. On the second lap, 7th-starting Mike Boyer went to the inside of Treuchet to take away the top spot.

Boyer then pulled away from the field until the caution came out on lap nine. On the restart Boyer once again pulled away from the field. Still had worked his way from his 9th-starting spot to second when another caution slowed the field on lap 17. Still tried the high side in turns three and four of lap 17 and then dove to the low side in turns one and two. Still claimed the lead for good off turn two.

Still crossed the line first to claim his 8th career win with 17th-starting Chris Melton second. Mike Boyer, Brian Marriott, and Nik Gower completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were Michael Boer, Dave Schreiber, Steve Daron, Darren Schott II, and Chris Kennedy.

Austen Treuchet and Michael Boer won the heats for the 18 270cc Micro Sprint Cars.

Kurt Welsh claimed the 20-lap Classic Car feature after holding off Pete Neal and Jim Crocker for most of the race. Bill Brown, Sr. grabbed the early race lead, but retired to the pits with problems after leading the first five laps. This handed the lead over to Welsh. Following a lap 11 restart, a three-way battle for the lead involving Welsh, Neal and Crocker was under way.

With two laps to go, Jim Crocker suffered a flat tire and pulled into the pits. But the battle between Welsh and Neal continued until the checkered flag flew for Welsh. Neal was second with Steve Cantwell, Charlie Summers, and Neal Reamer rounding out the top five.

Heats for the 14 Classic Cars were won by Kurt Neal and Bill Brown, Sr.

Broc Lawrence started on the front row of the 12-lap Strictly Stock feature and grabbed the lead on the start. On lap 7, Misti Kopp challenged Lawrence for the race lead, but Lawrence shut the door and held on to claim his first Strictly Stock win. Last week’s winner Alan Shoff made his way from 8th to finish second.

Wes Kellison led the final three laps to win his first Starlite 6-cylinder Oval feature of the year. Fourth-starting Dale Arnold grabbed the lead on the start. Kellison worked his way from his 8th-starting spot to challenge Arnold for the lead at the half way point. Kellison was able to pass Arnold for the lead on lap ten.

RACINE FINDS VICTORY LANE FOR FIRST TIME IN 2010;

GOWER WINS 2 IN A ROW; HENRY WINS FIRST LEGEND FEATURE;

CARROLL CLAIMS FIRST 4CYL WIN;

MITCHELL AND SHOFF WIN SECOND FEATURES OF THE SEASON

Hanover, PA (07/10/10) – For Brian Racine, all it took was a vacation. Racine returned from Ocean City, MD to claim his first 600cc Micro Sprint victory of the year in the 20-lap feature event at Trail-Way Speedway.

“It feels good to be here again,” said Racine, of McSherrystown, after exiting his Xtreme Auto & Audio/ Psycho Racing #14 in victory lane.

Polesitter Ryan McCollum grabbed the lead on the start and led the first lap. Second-starting Kyle Ganoe drove under McCollum in turn two of lap two for the lead. The next lap, fifth-starting Racine dove under McCollum in turn four to take second.

Racine followed Ganoe until making the race winning pass in turn one of lap ten. The next lap, Tim Dietz got by Ganoe in lapped traffic for second. The first caution flew on lap 13 for Ryan McCollum who stopped outside turn 3.

On the restart, Dietz tried the high side in an attempt to take the lead from Racine but Racine held on to the lead. The field was again slowed the following lap for Shane Hoff who had problems and stopped outside turn 4. Racine pulled away from the field on the restart to claim his first win of the year.

Dietz crossed second with Isaac Sneeringer third, point leader and 12th-starting Jimmy Brookens, and Bo Gordon, Jr. completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were Ganoe, 15th-starting Timmie Barrick, Shane Lewis, Dwayne Gutshall and last week’s winner Robert Kendall.

Heat winners for the 23 600cc Micro Sprint Cars were Racine and Ryan McCollum.

A 9-car tangle in turn two of the first lap for the 270cc Micro feature moved Nik Gower to third for the restart. Gower grabbed the top spot to lead the first lap and never looked back. Gower’s tremendous lead was erased when the first caution came out on lap 16. On the restart, second place Chris Kennedy was unable to challenge Gower.

Gower had nearly a straightaway lead over Kennedy with one lap remaining, but another caution came out, eliminating Gower’s lead once again. Mike Boyer and Brian Marriott got by Kennedy on the restart to claim second and third. But Gower was out front and crossed first to claim his second win in a row and fourth win of the season.

Boyer finished second and Marriott was third. Jim Still made a last lap pass to finish fourth and Kennedy rounded out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Marco Michetti, Adam Warner, Dave Schreiber, Darren Schott III, and Angela Caruso.

Austen Treuchet and Michael Boer won the heats for the 20 270cc Micro Sprint Cars.

Tim Henry claimed his first Legend Car victory in the 20-lap feature at Trail-Way. Henry took the lead from second-starting Bill Diehl on the 7th lap and held off Geremey Sheaffer over multiple cautions to make his way to victory lane.

Sheaffer finished in a close second after many unsuccessful attempts to grab the lead from Henry. Reed Salony crossed third with Diehl holding on to finish fourth. Scott Gobrecht raced his was back to fifth place after going to the rear due to an 8th lap spin.

Sixth through tenth were Lucas Montgomery, Chad Glatfelter, 18th-starting Greg Burd, Ed Trump and Ed Wentz. Heats for the 19 Central PA Legend Cars were won by Montgomery and Sheaffer.

Robbie Carroll grabbed the lead on the start and led all 12-laps in the Starlite 4cyl Oval feature. The race was slowed on lap 3 for Brad Kress, who made contact with another car and required the assistance of a wrecker. On the restart, second-place Daryl Hanson tried to challenge for the lead, but was unable to make a pass. With two to go, the field was slowed again, but Carroll was able to hold off Chris Myers to claim his first win in the Starlite 4cyl Oval class.

Justin Mitchell took the lead from polesitter Rusty Warnick on the eighth lap to claim his second win in the 4 & 6 cyl Scramble car feature event. Mitchell drove around Warnick and pulled away from the field. Ray Hollingsworth crossed second and Broc Lawrence finished third.

Alan Shoff raced side-by-side with Steven Alban, Jr. before taking the lead for good on the third lap. Shoff led the rest of the way to claim his second win of the season in the 12-lap Strictly Stock feature. Alban finished second and Shawn Crunkilton crossed third.

Next Friday (7/16), the 358 Sprint Cars return. The Thundercars, Extreme Stocks and Limited Stocks are also on the schedule. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

BOBBY BEARD WINS TRAIL-WAY 358 LATE MODEL FEATURE;

GENE KNAUB WILLIAMS GROVE/LINCOLN/TRAIL-WAY “SHOOTOUT” CHAMP;

KYLE MARTIN THUNDERCAR WINNER; CALIMER IN EXTREME STOCKS;

MATT CHRONISTER CLAIMS LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (07/09/10) – With both drivers taking turns, it was Bobby Beard’s turn to win the 358 late model feature at Trail-Way Speedway.

But Gene Knaub was more than happy to settle for second, the 2010 Williams Grove/Lincoln/Trail-Way “Shootout” series title, and the $500 bonus that went with it.

Beard drew pill #1 and Knaub drew pill #2 to start on the front row of the feature. The American Tree & Stump Removal/Delco Signs/Bay City Restaurant/Patterson’s Sandblasting #81S won the drag-race to the first turn, and was never headed, despite heavy pressure from Knaub the entire way.

“You don’t ‘tease’ with Gene Knaub,” said a happy Beard in victory lane when asked by track announcer Scott Hockensmith about ‘teasing’ with Knaub, “You slip once, and Gene’s by.”

Knaub and Beard have taken turns winning twice each at Trail-Way this season.

“Bobby’s a great racer, and my hat’s off to him,” said Knaub, who joined Beard in victory lane to receive the “Shootout” championship trophy, “I enjoy running with him. But I’m happy ‘cause we won the war. I want to thank the sponsors who put the money up for the shootout.”

Miller Racing Parts, Frankie’s Used Parts, Chaz’s Used Auto Parts, Insinger Performance, and Hoosier Tire Mid-Atlantic put up the $2,000 in bonus money divided among the ten race teams with the best three-night combined finishes at Williams Grove (6/26), Lincoln (7/3), and Trail-Way (7/9).

Carl Billet started fourth and finished third in the 25-lap event. Seventh-starting Steve Billet and 13th-starting Shaun Jones completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were D.J. Mease (who finished second overall in the “Shootout”), Travis Mease, Travis McClelland, John Ebersole, and Cody Fairchok.

Completing the top five in points in the three race “Shootout” behind Knaub (5 points) and D.J. Mease (10 points) were Shaun Jones (19 points), Travis Mease (21 points), and Bobby Beard (22 points).

Heats for the 18 “358” late models were won by Grant Adams and Steve Billet.

Kyle Martin held off a charging Sam Gallagher to claim his second win of the year in the 20-lap thundercar feature. Martin started third and followed David Prunkl for the first 14 laps.

Prunkl dropped from first to third in turn four of lap 15 when something happened to the #8MD. Martin slid under Prunkl for the lead and Gallagher drove around Prunkl for second as the three completed lap 15. Three laps later, Prunkl dropped to the infield while running third.

Martin withstood several challenges by Gallagher over the final five laps to claim the win.

Third through fifth behind Gallagher were Rick Weaver, Brian Walls, and Larry Neiderer.

The lone heat for the nine thundercars was won by Prunkl.

The Miner’s Machine Shop team cars of Gary Calimer, Jr. and Doug Bennett crossed first and second in the 20-lap Extreme Stock feature. Polesitter Calimer and fourth-starting Bennett were scored first and second every lap.

Hard charger Jeremy Stremmel came from 12th-starting spot to finish third, with Brent Hake and last week’s winner Patrick McClane completing the top five.

Heats for the 13 Extreme Stocks were won by Calimer and Bennett.

Matt Chronister came from his fifth starting spot to grab the lead from polesitter Lem Crawford on the second lap and score his second win of the year in the 12-lap limited stock feature.

Kyle Rohrbaugh started tenth and finished second, with 11th-starting Daryl Hanson crossing third.

Heats for the 22 limited stocks were won by Brian Walls and Chronister.

Tomorrow (7/10), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints return for a program which also includes the Central PA Legends, Scramble Cars, Starlite 4-cylinder Oval and Strictly Stocks. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

BITTINGER POWERS TO SECOND 2010 WIN IN TRAIL-WAY 358 SPRINTS;

BRIAN WALLS DRIVES BROTHER’S CAR TO THUNDERCAR WIN;

FRED CULLUM TAKES SECOND STRAIGHT IN ALL-AMERICAN OUTLAWS;

FIRST CAREER WIN FOR ROOKIE TOM SENSENEY, JR. IN LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (07/02/10) –Mike Bittinger was the class of the field in the 25-lap feature for 358 sprint cars at Trail-Way Speedway.

The Abbottstown driver came from ninth starting spot to drive under polesitter and race-long leader Mike Duncan, Jr. in turn four of lap 12, then raced away to his second win of the year.

“It’s great to win, but there were too many weeks in between,” said a happy Bittinger in victory lane, “We made a discovery last week. We’ve been so tight in the turns, and tonight I was a little nervous because we were loose at the start. But it ran pretty well at the end.”

“A big goal for us this year is more wins,” added Bittinger, “Maybe being in the top one every week!”

Bittinger went on to credit engine builder Jimmy Travis for the win. Travis builds many of the 358 sprint car engines, including those used by all-time winner Brad McClelland and Joe Trone, Jr.

The win was the 12th of Bittinger’s Trail-Way career.

Logan Schuchart came from 12th starting spot to pass Zach Euculano and Duncan for second on a 14th-lap restart. Duncan completed his best-ever run in third, with points leader and 16th-starting Dale Hammaker and Kyle Moody crossing fourth and fifth, respectively.

Sixth through tenth were Joe Trone, Jr., 18th-starting Tim Wagaman, Brad McClelland, Todd Spangler, and Randy Whisler.

Heats for the 22 “358” sprint cars on hand were won by Trevor Little, Euculano, and Bittinger.

Brian Walls drove brother Will’s car to his second win of the year in the 20-lap thundercar feature. Will joined Brian in victory lane after kidney stone surgery earlier in the day.

Walls started fourth and followed polesitter Justin Bittle for the first 12 laps. In turn four of lap 13, the two leaders got together, with Bittle suffering a flat tire and spinning and Walls hitting the outside wall on the front stretch. Walls never stopped, and Bittle went to the pits.

Walls led the rest of the way, despite constant pressure from eighth-starting Sam Gallagher.

Gallagher’s two-race win streak was snapped with a runner-up finish. Rick Weaver crossed third.

The lone heat for the nine thundercars was won by Weaver.

Fred Cullum made it two-for-two in the 20-lap All-American Outlaw feature, leading every lap from his pole position.

Second-starting Tommy Crummitt and 11th-starting Allen Daniels finished second and third.

Heats for the 15 All-American Outlaws were won by Cullum and Hunter Nester.

Rookie driver Tom Senseney, Jr. scored his first career win in the 12-lap limited stock feature.

Senseney started fourth and grabbed the lead from polesitter Donald Hopkins, Jr. on the sixth lap.

Daryl Hanson came from sixth starting spot to finish second, with Hopkins holding on for third.

Heats for the 22 limited stocks were won by Hopkins and Matt Chronister, who failed to report out for the feature. Shawn Crunkilton won the consolation event.

Tomorrow (7/3), Trail-Way Speedway will hold an Independence Day Special with the Junk Cars, Figure 8’s, Powder Puffs, and Starlite 6-cylinder and 4-cylinder Oval Cars. Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:00 p.m.

KENDALL CONTINUES STREAK WITH SPEEDWEEK WIN;

WALTON WINS FIRST SIDEWINDER; GOWER ANOTHER CLAIMS 270 WIN

Hanover, PA (06/26/10) – One hundred fifteen sprint cars graced the grounds of Trail-Way Speedway for the opening night of the PA 600 Speedweek.

Robbie Kendall continued his winning streak by claiming the opening race of Speedweek in the 25-lap 600cc Micro Sprint feature.

“He(Eric Bodine) was better than me, actually, but he slid up and I had to take advantage of it.” explained Kendall after climbing out of his George A. Falter Fundraising #55K and receiving many congratulations from family, friends and crew.

Polesitter Eric Bodine took the lead on the start and drove away from the 600cc Micro field. Timmy Buckwalter grabbed the second spot but was unable to catch Bodine. The top five cars, Bodine, Buckwalter, Mike Rutherford, Kendall and Jimmy Brookens were spread out and remained the same for 6 laps until the caution flew on lap 15 for Tyler Walton.

Another caution followed and during the caution, second place Timmy Buckwalter stopped on the track and was taken to the pits, ending his night. When the race resumed, Rutherford inherited the second position. Kendall got passed Rutherford before the completion of the 16th lap. Another caution slowed the field on lap 20, when Jesse Snyder stopped in turns three and four. On the restart, Kendall dove to the inside and slide under Bodine to take away the lead.

From that point on, Kendall never looked back, he claimed his second T-W win in a row by nearly a straight away over Bodine, who settled for second. Rutherford, Brookens, and Jeff Hartman rounded out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Heath Hehnly, Ryan Greth, 22nd-starting Ryan Smith, 27th-starting Isaac Sneeringer and Arron Spahr.

Eric Bodine accumulated the most points of the 73 600cc Micro Sprints in passing point qualifying. Isaac Sneeringer was the highest driver in Trail-Way points who did not qualify and was granted the 27th provisional starting spot.

“We’ve been saying ever since we got this car ‘It’s jinxed.’”.

Tyler Walton changed his luck when he charged from his 17th-starting spot to claim his first 1000cc Sidewinder win in the 20-lap feature.

Rick Hench took the lead from his pole position on the start of the Sidewinder feature event. Walton raced his way to 6th by the third lap. Walton took a look under second place driver DJ Montgomery in turn three of lap 8 and Walton dove under Montgomery in turn one of the following lap. Walton then set his sights on Hench. For the next 8 laps, Walton slowly caught Hench as the front of the field entered lapped traffic. Hench got caught behind a lapped car on lap 17 which gave Walton enough time to catch Hench and take away the lead.

Following Walton across the line were Hench, DJ Montgomery, Ryan Brougton and 12th-starting Ben Murphy completing the top five. Heats for the 18 Sidewinders were won by Walton and Montgomery.

Nik Gower claimed his 3rd win at Trail-Way Speedway and 24th of his 270cc Micro career in the 20-lap feature event. Michael Boer grabbed the lead on the start of the feature. Nik Gower came from 10th to challenge Boer for the race lead on lap 10. Gower went under Boer in turn three, but Boer spun, bringing out the caution. Gower pulled away from the field and crossed the line to win. Brian Marriott came from his 12th-starting spot to finish second with Michael Ertter, Dave Schreiber, and Steve Daron completing top five.

Jim Still and Boer picked up the heat wins for the 24 270cc Micro Sprints.

The PA 600 Speedweek will continue tomorrow night at Lincoln Speedway. Gates open at 5 p.m. and racing begins at 7 p.m.

Next Friday (6/25), the 358 Sprints Cars are on the schedule with the Thundercars, All American Outlaws and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

WAGAMAN CLAIMS POPULAR CAREER FIRST IN TRAIL-WAY 358 SPRINTS;

GALLAGHER REPEATS IN THRILLING THUNDERCAR FEATURE;

McCLANE WINS FIRST IN EXTREME STOCKS; ROHRBAUGH AGAIN IN LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (06/25/10) – “If you’re not first, you’re last.”

So exclaimed a jubilant Tim Wagaman after a wildly popular win in the 25-lap “358” sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.

“This is what my family works for every week,” continued Wagaman upon exiting his Zeigler Kitchens/Delco Signs/Smith Motorsports/Hoosier Tire Mid-Atlantic #1 after his first career sprint car feature win.

And Wagaman did it in grand style, coming from 11th starting spot to power around Troy Becker on a 20th lap restart for the lead and then holding off 12th-starting Dale Hammaker over the last two laps.

“I knew if Dale passed me, he would have to do it on the top. He raced me clean,” said Wagaman, “This is the best feeling in racing…even better than I thought!”

Points leader Brad McClelland blew a motor in his qualifying event and failed to start the feature. Hammaker’s second-place finish vaulted him into the Trail-Way points lead.

Tenth-starting Joe Trone, Jr. crossed third, followed by Randy Whisler and Mike Bittinger.

Sixth through tenth were 20th-starting Randy Davis, Jr., 17th-starting Nick Palmerino, Trevor Little, Brian Suchy, and Becker.

Heats for the 22 “358” sprint cars on hand were won by Billy Heltzel III, Bittinger, and Trone.

Sam Gallagher chased Kyle Martin for 16 laps before making the race-winning pass in turns one and two of the final lap and score his second win in-a-row in the 20-lap thundercar feature.

Martin, who started on the pole, led every lap except the last, and then poured salt his wound when he spun in turn four coming to the checkered. He was credited with a fifth-place finish.

Second through fourth were Will Walls, Rick Weaver, and Matt Wampler.

The lone thundercar heat was won by Martin.

Pat McClane raced to his first career Trail-Way win in the 20-lap Extreme Stock feature.

Polesitter Chris Heller led the first six laps before dropping to the infield with motor problems. That handed the lead to Jeremy Stremmel, who led the next three laps until sixth-starting McClane took over. Stremmel dropped to the infield with a flat tire on lap 14, moving Brent Hake into the runner-up spot.

One lap later, hard charger Doug Bennett got past Hake for second, but he was unable to catch McClane. Timothy Hahn crossed third.

Extreme Stock heats were won by Bennett and Heller.

Kyle Rohrbaugh made it two in-a-row and third win of the season in the 12-lap limited stock feature. Tom Senseney, Jr. and 18th-starting Brad Kress completed the top three.

Heats for the 22 limited stocks were won by Terry Hartlaub and Brian Walls. Jason Chronister took the checkered in the consolation event.

Tomorrow (6/26), Trail-Way Speedway will host opening night of the PA 600 Speedweek. Also on the schedule are the 270cc Micro Sprints and 1000cc Sidewinders. Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

Next Friday (7/2), the 358 Sprints Cars are on the schedule with the Thundercars, All American Outlaws and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

Next Saturday (7/3), Trail-Way Speedway will hold an Independence Day Special with the Junk Cars. Also on the schedule are the Figure 8’s, Powder Puffs, and Starlite 6-cylinder and 4-cylinder Oval Cars. Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:00 p.m.

For Immediate Release June 19, 2010

KENDALL CONTINUES WINNING STREAK;

STEVEN COX CLAIMS FIRST ON DIRT; CODY COONS WINS FIRST XCEL MOD RACE;

KOPP WINS STRICTLY STOCK; NINE CLAIMS SCRAMBLE; CRAWFORD WINS FIRST

Hanover, PA (06/19/10) – “Wow! What a great weekend! This is our third win in a row” exclaimed Robbie Kendall after exiting his 600cc Micro Sprint in victory lane at Trail-Way Speedway Saturday night.

Tim McCollum grabbed the lead at the start from his pole starting spot. Fourth starting J.B. Cunningham worked his way to second and began closing the gap on McCollum. By lap 5, Cunningham tried to make a pass for the lead under McCollum going into turn one, but the pass didn’t stick.

By that time, tenth starting Kendall had raced his way into the third position. Three laps later Kendall dove under Cunningham to claim the runner up spot.

McCollum started to pull away from Kendall, but his lead was erased when third and fourth-place drivers J.B. Cunningham and Chase Dietz made contact in turn four causing Dietz to flip. Dietz was uninjured, but done for the night. Shawn Seifert also suffered top wing damage and retired to the pits.

When the race resumed, Kendall dove to the inside of McCollum in turn one to take away the race lead. Kendall ran away with the race lead and 11th-starting Jimmy Brookens who worked his way to the second spot was never able to close the gap.

Isaac Sneeringer, Dwayne Gutshall, and Jimmy Glenn completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were Tim McCollum, Bo Gordon, Timmie Barrick, Bard Weber, and Skylar Felkner.

Heat winners for the 28 600cc Micro Sprints were Skylar Felkner, Tim McCollum and Ryan McCollum. Kyle Ganoe claimed the win in the consolation event.

“This is our first win on dirt” explained Steven Cox in victory lane after claiming his first 270cc Micro Sprint win. “We had over 40 wins on asphalt.” Cox started third and followed polesitter and race long leader Austen Treuchet for the first 6 laps before diving to the inside and taking the lead exiting turn two.

“This was ten times harder than a win on asphalt” stated Cox after his victory. At the half way point Bill Laughman, who has 19 career wins, and Jim Still, former track champion, were on his rear bumper. As Cox entered turn four to complete the race, the caution flag came out for Michael Ertter who stopped in turns one and two. This put Laughman, Still and 20th-starting Nik Gower right behind Cox for the final lap. Despite the heavy pressure, Cox was able to hold off the field and claim his first win.

Laughman crossed second with Gower, Brian Marriott, and Still rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Chris Melton, Mike Boyer, Angela Caruso, Lyle Stroman and Steve Daron. Cox and Treuchet claimed the heats for the 20 270cc Micros Sprints.

Cody Coons became the eleventh different driver in twelve races to win in the Xcel Modified division. Coons started on the outside of the front row, but polesitter Joe Fanelli took the race lead at the start. Coons fell in behind Fanelli and challenged for the lead. Fanelli and Coons were side by side at the start/finish line on lap 7 and Coons came across to lead lap 8.

Coons started to pull away from the field until his lead was erased by a lap 12 caution. On the restart, Coons was able to hold on to the top spot and win his first Xcel Modified race.

Fanelli was second with Ryan Higgs, Tyler Bartik, Chris Stockham completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Dave Baldwin, Jr., Kasey Ernst, Aaron Bowes, Brian Mady, and Richie Hitzler.

Heat winners for the 27 Xcel Modifieds were Joe Fanelli, Cody Coons, and Kasey Ernest.

Polesitter Misti Kopp grabbed the lead on the start in the 12-lap Strictly Stock feature. Kopp pulled away from the field with Alan Shoff, unable to challenge her for the race lead, settling for second.

Anthony Nine led the final three laps of the Scramble Car feature to claim the win. Race leader Michael Kolodiej and second place Ray Hollingsworth were racing for the lead when Kolodiej spun and took his car to the pits. Hollingsworth was also forced to retire handing the lead to Nine.

Lem Crawford claimed his first Starlite 6cyl Oval race after first and second place drivers Douglas Smith and Wes Kellison dropped out of the race. Crawford led the final five laps without any challenges from Jeff Dillman, who finished second.

BRIAN BRUCKNER CLAIMS CAREER FIRST IN TRAIL-WAY 358 SPRINTS;

GALLAGHER TAKES SECOND WIN OF YEAR IN THUNDERCARS;

FRED CULLUM WINS ALL-AMERICAN OUTLAW FEATURE ON LAST LAP;

KYLE ROHRBAUGH BEST OF LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (06/18/10) – As has been said many times before, first career wins are always special.

Such was the case Friday night, as Carlisle’s Brian Bruckner raced to his first win in the 358 sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway. And with the Auto Racing Club of Hagerstown on hand, he even got to take a checkered flag along home.

Originally scheduled to start seventh, Bruckner moved up a row when third-starting Zach Euculano spun in turn four on the initial start. He moved up another row when Scott Fisher flipped in turn one on the restart. Also collected in the Fisher crash were Randy Whisler, Brad McClelland, and Mike Bittinger. Both McClelland and Bittinger dove into the pits and made repairs in time for the third attempt to start the race.

McClelland was sent to the pits later in the race with top wing damage, and Bittinger came back to finish fifth.

Polesitter and last weekend’s Lincoln winner Steve Storrie led the first lap before Bruckner took over. Bruckner led the rest of the way despite heavy pressure from Dale Hammaker over the last five laps. Hammaker caught Joe Trone, Jr. for second on lap 19 and immediately closed on the leader.

“I was getting a little nervous there near the end,” said a happy Bruckner in victory lane, “I looked up and saw the 66 on the scoreboard, but I’ve beaten him before and just tried to stay focused.”

“Shawn (Norris) did a great job setting up the car,” continued Bruckner, “and I want to thank my sponsors West Shore Printing and Martin Motorworks.”

Crossing third behind Hammaker was Tim Wagaman, who originally started 14th. Trone and Bittinger completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were 13th-starting Todd Spangler, Jessie Morrison, Storrie, 16th-starting Troy Becker, and Mike Duncan, Jr.

Heats for the 19 “358” sprinters were won by Storrie and Duncan (his first-ever qualifying win).

Sam Gallagher started third, took the lead from Jamie Zentmyer on lap seven, and raced to his second win of the year in the 20-lap thundercar feature.

Zentmyer was running third when he was collected by the spinning lapped cars of Matt Wampler and Barry Rinehart on lap 19, ending his night.

Marshall McMullen came from sixth starting spot to finish second, with Rick Weaver third.

Eighth-starting Brian Walls and 13th-starting Will Walls completed the top five.

Heats for the 13 thundercars were won by Gallagher and Zentmyer.

A wild 20-lap All-American Outlaw feature was won by Fred Cullum, who made a last-lap pass and led only the final lap.

Allen Daniels started on the pole, led every lap except the last, and settled for second, with Kevin Palmer coming from 10th starting spot to finish third.

Heats for the All-American Outlaws were won by Allen Daniels and Brooks Coleman.

Kyle Rohrbaugh started eighth, drove around sixth starting Robbie Carroll on lap two, and scored his second win of the year in the 12-lap limited stock feature.

Matt Chronister finished second, with Rod Weaver third. Carroll faded to fifth at the end, behind 17th-starting Terry Hartlaub.

Heats for the 24 limited stocks were won by Daryl Hanson and Rohrbaugh. Hartlaub won the consolation event.

Tomorrow (6/19), the Xcel Modifieds will make their second appearance at Trail-Way. The 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, Scramble Cars, and Starlite 6-cylinder Ovals and Strictly Stocks are also on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

KELLISON AND NINE CLAIM FIRST SCRAMBLE WINS OF THE YEAR;

WEAVER FINDS FIGURE 8 VICTORY LANE;

MISTI KOPP CLAIMS ANOTHER POWDER PUFF WIN;

HANOLD AND WOLFE CLAIMED JUNK CAR WINS

Hanover, PA (05/29/10) – Wes Kellison claimed his first Scramble Car win of the 2010 racing season in the first of two Scramble Car features. Kellison started 7th and passed race long leader Broc Lawrence for the lead on lap 7. On lap 8, Kellison bicycled his #21 through the fourth turn, but was still able to maintain the top spot. Kellison crossed the line first with Steve Hollingsworth finishing second.

In the second Scramble Car feature, Anthony Nine took the lead from the pole position on the first lap and never looked back. Nine used the battles through the pack to increase his lead over the field. It appeared as though Ricky Weaver, Jr. might be able to challenge Nine when he slid in front of second place driver Rusty Warnick and under a lapped car in turn 1. Unfortunately for Weaver, he was forced to pull into the infield the following lap due to mechanical problems.

Warnick finished second with Ray Hollingsworth crossing third. The feature went nonstop and Nine broke the track record by over 10 seconds. Nine’s new record is 4:21.36, besting Bernie Looney, Sr.’s record of 4:32.28, set on August 12, 2006.

Ricky Weaver, Jr. came from his 9th-starting spot to claim the win in the 12-lap Figure 8 feature at Trail-Way Speedway. Weaver was in second place by lap 2 but followed race long leader Gregg Mummert until the 8th lap.

Roy Denike started in the 18th and final spot but charged to finish in the second position. Mummert held on to finish third with Robert Hanold and Chris King rounded out the top five.

Kelly Emory grabbed the early race lead in the 12-lap Powder Puff feature event Saturday night at Trail-Way Speedway. By lap 8, Misti Kopp found her way to the runner-up spot and challenged for the race lead. Kopp got by Emory and lead the final 5 laps. Emory held on to cross second and Terri Hanold finished third.

The first of two Junk Car races included ten Big Junk Cars. With five cars remaining, Nick Fogle balanced his machine on the left side after contact; the car did not flip over, but Fogle was unable to continue and was credited with fifth.

Rob Hanold and Terri Hanold were in the last car running and were credited with the win. Tommy Randall and Mark Vints claimed $50 for the Most Aggressive Driver award.

The second Junk Car race contained 11 cars. The last car running was Richard Wolfe. Wolfe was also given the $50 for Most Aggressive Driver. Heats for the Junk Cars were won by Billy Hoffman; James Bloom and Rachael Battogha; Justin Bittle and Gregg Mummert; and Nick Fogle.

Shawn Linebaugh won the Best Appearing Car award with his black and green Slim Ball #33.

Next Friday (6/4), the 358 Sprints Cars are on the schedule with the Thundercars, Classic Cars and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m. It is also the fourth night of the Fantasy Fan Contest.

BITTINGER MAKES LAST-LAP PASS FOR FIRST 2010 WIN;

LAST-LAP CRASH GIVES KNAUB WIN IN THE 358 LATE MODELS;

CARROLL TAKES FIRST OF YEAR IN LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (05/28/10) –Sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes the bear eats you.

That was pretty much the story for Randy Whisler, who led all but the last lap of the 25-lap “358” sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.

Whisler grabbed the lead from the outside of the front row and paced the field until turn one of lap 25. That’s when he drove hard under a lapped car but hit the cushion and lost momentum through turns one and two.

There to take advantage was Mike Bittinger, who started fifth and moved into the runner-up spot on lap 10. Bittinger chased Whisler for nine laps following the final caution of the event, but could never catch Whisler until lapped traffic forced the issue on the final lap.

“I told the crew on that red flag (on lap 15 for a flipping Zach Euculano in turn three) that we needed to get lapped traffic to catch him,” said Bittinger upon exiting his DS Diversified Services/Littlestown Auto Care #12 in victory lane, “I don’t think I passed a car all night except in lapped traffic. We weren’t the fastest car tonight, but we were the luckiest.”

It was Bittinger’s first win of the year and the 11th of his Trail-Way 358 sprint career.

Whisler recovered and finished second, with Joe Trone, Jr., tenth starting Dale Hammaker, and 15th-starting Keith Prutzman completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Troy Becker, 18th-starting Logan Schuchart, Brian Bruckner, 16th-starting Kyle Moody, and Steve Storrie.

Heats for the 27 “358” sprinters were won by Becker, Scott Fisher, and Whisler. Nick Palmerino won the consolation event.

The bear also ate Bernie Beard, who spun while leading on the last lap and collected second-place Craig Wagaman in the 25-lap “358” late model feature.

Beard had led from the start, but went to the pits after the crash. Wagaman rejoined the rear, and third-place Gene Knaub found himself the leader with one lap to go.

Knaub went on to win, with Cam Zeigler crossing second and Bobby Beard finishing third. Fourth and fifth were Carl Billet and 16th-starting Mike Walls. Wagaman came back to finish sixth.

Heats for the 17 “358” late models were won by Grant Adams and Bobby Beard.

Robbie Carroll started on the pole and led every lap of the 12-lap limited stock feature. It was his first win of the year.

Joe Racine and 15th-starting Daryl Hanson finished second and third.

Heats for the 28 limited stocks were won by Brad Kress, Racine, and Carroll. Tom Senseney, Jr. won the consolation event.

Tomorrow (5/29), the first Junk Car Demolition race is on the schedule. Joining the Junk Cars will be Figure 8, Powder Puff, and Scramble Cars. Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:00 p.m. That show carries a Sunday rain date.

Next Friday (6/4), the 358 Sprints Cars are on the schedule with the Thundercars, Classic Cars and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

Next Saturday (6/5), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints return with the 1000cc Sidewinders, Scramble Cars, and Starlite 4 and 6-cylinder Ovals and Strictly Stocks are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

ROHRBAUGH REJOINS McCLELLAND AT TOP OF ALL-TIME TRAIL-WAY WIN LIST;

GALLAGHER, BENNETT, & KRESS OTHER FRIDAY NIGHT WINNERS

Hanover, PA (05/21/10) –Three-time track champ Jeff Rohrbaugh moved back into a tie with Brad McClelland on top of the all-time Trail-Way 358 sprint car career win list after scoring his first win of the year in the 25-lap feature Friday night.

“So this is where it is!” quipped Rohrbaugh exiting his Roy Vincent Racing #7v in victory lane,

“We’ve been making a lot of changes on the car this year, but I’d rather make changes than run second.”

Rohrbaugh started seventh and advanced the runner-up spot by the end of lap three. That was the lap in which he slipped between Randy Whisler and Mike Bittinger to gain two spots.

“We split the 12 and 64 cars,” said Rohrbaugh of the daring move, “We were going to win it or wear it.”

Two laps later (lap five), Rohrbaugh drove under outside front row starter and race-long leader Trevor Little through turns three and four for the race lead. The RVR/L&R Auto Body/Don Beard Racing Engines #7v led the rest of the way, most of the second half of the race with lapped cars between himself and second-place finisher Bittinger.

Rohrbaugh’s first Trail-Way win of the year was the 22nd of his career, moving him back into the all-time win lead with points leader Brad McClelland.

Joe Trone, Jr. completed a solid run by coming from sixth starting spot to finish third.

McClelland put on the most exciting show of the night by coming from the rear after sustaining damage during first-lap contact with a spinning Jessie Morrison and dropping to the pits to make repairs.

Tim Wagaman started tenth and finished fifth, with Dale Hammaker, Randy Davis, Jr., Troy Becker, Scott Fisher, and 17th-starting Adam Lawrence completing the top ten.

Heat for the 23 “358” sprint cars were won by Little, Rohrbaugh, and Bittinger.

Sam Gallagher became the fifth different winner in five races in the thundercar division.

And he did it in record-setting fashion, reclaiming the fastest time ever with a 20-lap run of 6:05.09. Gallagher was the record holder before Will Walls set a new track record of 6:08.33 on April 30th. Walls’ record stood for only two races.

Gallagher chased outside front row starter Kyle Martin for the first 12 laps before Martin drifted high in turn four of lap 13, giving Gallagher the opening he needed to grab the lead.

Martin came back to challenge Gallagher over the final few laps, finishing a half-carlength behind the Byers Tire #25.

Brad Shank, Will Walls, and Rick Weaver completed the top five.

Martin got a record of his own, completing the lone heat for the nine thundercars in an 8-lap time of 2:27.71. (That record was also held by Will Walls, set on 8/17/07 at 2:28.50.)

Doug Bennett scored his second win in-a-row in the 20-lap Extreme Stock feature. He started eighth and caught Jeremy Stremmel for the lead on lap 17. From there, Bennett pulled away, with Stremmel crossing second and Pat McClane third.

Heats for the 16 Extreme Stocks were won by Stremmel and Gary Calimer, Jr.

Calimer dropped from the field with a flat rear tire while leading the feature on lap three.

Brad Kress came from sixth starting spot to win the 12-lap limited stock feature. He took the lead from Terry Hartlaub on the second lap and was never challenged.

Rod Weaver and Chad Weaver crossed second and third.

Heats for the 26 limited stocks were won by Rod Weaver, Kress, and Robbie Carroll.

Sarah Redmond established a four-lap track record in the consolation event, completing the event in 1:32.90.

Tomorrow (5/22), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, All American Outlaws, Scramble Cars, Starlite 6-cylinder Ovals and Strictly Stocks are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

Next Friday (5/28), the 358 Late Models return to Trail-Way. They’ll be joined by the 358 Sprints Cars and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

Next Saturday (5/29), the first Junk Car Demolition race is on the schedule. Joining the Junk Cars will be Figure 8, Powder Puff, and Scramble Cars. Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with racing beginning at

Hanover, PA (05/15/10) – “We’ve been struggling with it this year but, we got it together tonight,” explained Tim Dietz in victory lane after claiming his first win of 2010 at Trail-Way Speedway.

Dietz started ninth and drove around Tanner Hunsicker for second exiting turn four of lap six. The following lap, Dietz and race long leader JD Harman were side by side at the start/finish line. But the caution flag flew before lap 9 could be completed and Dietz was forced the settle in line behind Harman.

Dietz took his Brookmere Winery/Gardy Enterprises sponsored #18D to the high side on the restart. Dietz and Harman were once again side by side at the line. Dietz got past Harman to lead lap ten and Dietz checked out on the field. Dietz’ lead was erased when Bo Gordon and J.B Cunningham stopped on the backstretch.

On the restart, Dietz once again pulled away from the field. Dietz claimed his 13th career win in the 600cc Micro Sprint division at Trail-Way Speedway. Harman finished second with Tanner Hunsicker, Brian Racine, and Timmie Barrick rounding out the top five.

Sixth through tenth were 12th-starting Jimmy Brookens, CJ Tracy, Dwayne Gutshall, 24th and final starter Isaac Sneeringer, and Chase Dietz.

Dietz was not the only challenger Harman faced, Hunsicker challenged for the lead over the opening laps. Hunsicker had a series of runs off turn two, and made a pass for the lead on lap five. However, the caution came out before the lap was completed and Harman regained the top spot.

Heat winners for the 26 600cc Micro Sprints were Hunsicker, Harman, and Chase Dietz.

Bill Laughman claimed his third victory of the season in the 20-lap 270cc Micro Sprint feature. Laughman started 11th and found his way to the third spot by the half way mark.

Polesitter Michael Boer claimed the lead on the start of the feature. The field bunched up in turn two of the first lap, but all drivers were able to continue. The red flag came out for a cluster of cars and a flipping Michael Ertter in turns one and two.

After several more cautions occurring, officials agreed to take a fuel stop with six laps down to ensure the drivers would be able to make the entire distance. When the race was restarted, Dane Tobias, who drove under Michael Boer in turn one of lap 3, was in control of the field.

On lap 10, Dave Schreiber got around Tobias for the race lead. Two laps later, Schreiber found himself stopped in the infield in turn four. Bill Laughman was running second to Schreiber, and inherited the lead for the restart. The caution flag flew with two laps remaining and again with one lap to go, but Laughman was able to hold off a charging Nik Gower to pick up his 19th career win at Trail-Way Speedway.

Third through fifth were 17th-starting Jim Still, Steve Daron and Dane Tobias. Sixth through tenth were Schreiber, Steven Cox, Boer, Alex Spalding, and Lyle Stroman. Heat winners for the 19 270cc Micro Sprints were Lyle Stroman and Steven Cox.

Allen Daniels led all 20-laps to claim the victory in the All American Outlaw feature at Trail-Way Speedway. Jessie Morrison was running second until Brooks Coleman passed Morrison on the inside in turns three and four of lap five. Coleman tried to challenge for the lead, but Daniels had caught the end of the field and was in lapped traffic.

Tommy Crummitt got by Coleman for second on lap eleven while battling lapped cars. Hunter Nester then challenged Coleman for third, but spun in the process bringing out the first caution of the event. Crummitt tried to pass Daniels for the race lead, but could not make the passes stick. Daniels crossed first with Crummitt, Coleman, Kevin Palmer, and Morrison completing the top five.

Sixth through tenth were Steve Jorda, Dustin Wiles, Bo Sheeler, Hunter Nester, and Robert Enders. Heat winners for the 15 All American Outlaws were Allen Daniels and Jessie Morrison.

Steven Alban, Jr. claimed his first Strictly Stock victory in the 12-lap feature event. Alban grabbed the lead on the second lap from polesitter Broc Lawrence. Charles Allen III got by Lawrence to claim the second position and last week’s winner Allan Shoff finished third.

Brad Kress claimed another victory in the Starlite 4cyl Oval feature. Kress started seventh and took the lead from race long leader and polesitter Rick Hopkins. Robbie Carroll and Daryl Hanson also got around Hopkins for second and third. Hanson ran second for the final four laps, but never had the chance to get around Kress.

Wayne Kopp started on the pole of the 12-lap 4 and 6cyl Scramble feature and grabbed the lead from the start. Kopp lead every lap, despite pressure from Wes Kellison, to win his first feature of the season in the Scramble division.

McCLELLAND BACK ON TOP OF THE ALL-TIME WIN LIST AT TRAIL-WAY;

WEAVER CLAIMS CAREER SECOND IN THUNDERCARS;

BENNETT TAKES EXTREME STOCKS; MATT CHRONISTER BEST OF LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (05/07/10) – You could say Brad McClelland pulled a “Jeff Rohrbaugh” on Jeff Rohrbaugh at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.

And the low-side move to claim the lead on a 14th lap restart completed a run from 12th starting spot and put McClelland back on the top of the all-time winners list in the 358 sprint division.

McClelland, who won his second of the year and 22nd of his Trail-Way career, advanced several positions at the start of the race, getting by Jessie Morrison to move into the top five on lap eight.

Mike Bittinger led the first ten laps before third-starting Jeff Rohrbaugh took the lead on lap 11. Two laps later, Bittinger lost a left rear wheel on the backstetch while running second, bringing out the caution. By that time, McClelland had advanced to third, and pulled onto the back bumper of Rohrbaugh for the restart.

“Jeff must’ve had something wrong,” said McClelland upon exiting the B&D Truck Hoist #6, “I was gonna go to the top on that restart, and he left the bottom open, so I took it.”

McClelland led the rest of the way through six more cautions to score the win.

“All those restarts was something,” added McClelland, “But if he had got going good, we might have had to deal with lapped traffic. This car hasn’t been too good here this year, but we found something and it was definitely good tonight.”

Rohrbaugh settled for second, with Tim Wagaman, 11th-starting Dale Hammaker, and Randy Davis, Jr. completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Morrison, Keith Prutzman, 15th-starting Adam Lawrence, Troy Becker, and 18th-starting Scott Fisher.

In addition to the nine cautions, a red flag was thrown on lap seven for a flipping Mike Duncan, Jr. in turns three and four. He was uninjured.

Heat winners for the 21 358 Sprint Cars were McClelland, Rohrbaugh, and Davis.

Only six cars turned out in the thundercar division, but three of them finished under a blanket in the feature, with Rick Weaver making the front stretch pass for his second career win in the 20-lap feature.

Kyle Martin started on the pole and led the first 19 laps before he and Weaver made contact in the final two turns, getting Martin out of shape and resulting in the Weaver pass coming to the line.

Brian Walls was also there, and also passed Martin on the final dash from turn four to the finish.

Martin settled for third, with Justin Bittle and Will Walls completing the top five.

Martin won the lone heat for the thundercars.

Doug Bennett established a 20-lap track record for the Extreme Stocks, crossing the line in a non-stop time of 7:00.25.

Crossing second behind Bennett was teammate Gary Calimer, Jr., with Brent Hake third.

The lone heat for the nine Extreme Stocks was won by Calimer.

Matt Chronister brought a heavily-smoking #81 home first in the 12-lap limited stock feature.

Chronister took the lead from Andrew Walls on lap two and paced the field the rest of the way, despite slowing in the final turns and coasting across the winner.

Brad Kress crossed second, with Daryl Hanson third.

Heat wins went to Chad Weaver, Matt Chronister, and Hanson. Wayne Blevins was the consolation race winner.

KENDALL’S LUCK CHANGES IN 600 FEATURE;

BOWES WINS FIRST XCEL MOD RACE;

GOWER CLAIMS 23ND 270 WIN;

DEFIBAUGH WINS SCRAMBLE;

HANSON AND SHOFF SET TRACK RECORDS;

Hanover, PA (05/01/10) –“We missed the first couple of races because we didn’t have a trailer. This is our fifth race, four times here and once at LANCO.” explained Robbie Kendall after bringing his Candy Man #55 into victory lane in the 20-lap 600cc Micro Sprint feature at Trail-Way Speedway.

Polesitter Joshua Harman grabbed the lead on the initial start, but fellow front row starter Tanner Hunsicker challenged Harman for the lead for the first five laps. Hunsicker drove under Harman to claim the lead exiting turn two of lap 6. J.B. Cunningham passed Harman for second the following lap. Going into the first turn of the 10th lap, Hunsicker ran up on the berm and spun. He was able to keep moving and rejoin the field after losing several positions. Kendall inherited the lead.

With 6 laps remaining, Jeff Rohrbaugh got sideways exiting turn 2 and rolled over bringing out the red flag. Ten cars were involved in the caution that blocked the track, but all drivers were uninjured and most were able to rejoin the tail end of the field.

The caution flag flew two more times before Kendall was able to pull away from the field to pick up his first win of the 2010 season.

Following Kendall across the line were Cunningham, 11th-starting Jimmy Brookens, Bo Gordon, and 12th-starting Tim Dietz to complete the top five. Sixth through tenth were Shawn Seifert, Isaac Sneeringer, Jerrod Wilson, 22nd-starting CJ Tracy and Timmie Barrick.

Heat winners for the 23 600cc Micro Sprints were Harman and Cunningham.

Aaron Bowes claimed his first win in the 20-lap Xcel 600 Modified feature event. All Xcel Modified restarts are double file starts making for exciting racing throughout the entire event.

Outside front row starter Tyler Bartik grabbed the race lead on the initial start, but Brad Szulewski dove under Bartik in turns three and four to lead lap 6. Bartik took the lead back from Szulewski on lap 10, but was passed by Bowes one lap later. Bowes lead the rest of the way with Szulewski crossing second. Bartik, Brain Mady and Ryan Kunkle rounded out the top five.

Sixth through tenth were Nick Mady, Dave Baldwin, Jr., George Loux, Eric Whitby, and Joe Fanelli. Heat winners for the 26 Xcel 600 Modifieds were Nick Mady, Bowes, and Brian Mady.

Steven Cox started on the pole and grabbed the lead on the start of the 20-lap 270cc Micro Sprint feature. Third-starting Michael Ertter claimed the second spot for the first lap, until Nik Gower took the runner-up spot. On lap 4, Gower went under Cox to take the lead, however the caution came out before the lap was completed returning Cox to the top spot.

When the race got back underway, Gower again went to the low side and made contact with Cox before taking the lead in the first and second turns. With 11 laps complete, the 8th caution was brought out and the race was checkered based on a rule that limits a feature to 8 caution flags.

Gower claimed his 2nd win of the season and his 23rd career win at Trail-Way Speedway. Ertter finished second with Bill Laughman, Dave Schreiber, and 21st-starting Jim Still completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Adam Warner, Ryan Forsythe, Cox, Darren Schott II, and Patrick Donahue.

Gower and Laughman won the heat races for the 23 270cc Micro Sprints.

The Starlite 4cyl Oval feature had three and four wide action on the first lap with Krystin Nicklow grabbing the early race lead. Nicklow slowed on the fourth lap and pulled into the infield, handing the lead to Daryl Hanson. Kress then took the lead and the two battled side by side for the top position. Hanson went to the inside of Kress and made the pass exiting turn two of lap ten. Hanson and Kress continued the battle but Hanson claimed the victory and created a new track record. Hanson broke Kress’ record of 4:08.03, set in 2006, with a time of 4:06.31.

Tyler Defibaugh led every lap en route to claiming the 12-lap Scramble Car feature event. Defibaugh was challenged by Wes Kellison over the second half of the race, but Kellison was unable to complete a pass and settled for second. Alan Shoff took the lead from his pole position to lead every lap of the first appearance for the new Strictly Stock division. Shoff won his first ever race and created a new 12 lap track record of 4:17.75.

Next Friday (5/7), the 358 sprint cars return to Trail-Way. They’ll be joined by the Thundercars, Extreme Stocks, and Limited Stocks. It is also the second night of the Fantasy Fan Contest! Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

Hanover, PA (04/30/10) –How close was Friday night’s 358 late model feature finish at Trail-Way Speedway?

So close that the winner didn’t know he won.

In one of the closest finishes in Trail-Way Speedway history, McSherrystown’s Bobby Beard edged Gene Knaub by inches in the 25-lap thriller.

“I thought Gene won,” said a jubilant Beard upon exiting his Joe and Renita Seymore #81S, “Gene drove one heck-of-a race. I thought he won and was trying to get into the pits.”

Knaub cut Beard off at that point, and pulled nose-to-nose into victory lane to stop the #81S.

“I just stopped to tell him that was one helluva race,” said Knaub.

Beard started fourth and took second from outside front row starter Nat Tuckey on lap six.. One lap later, Beard went to the low side to catch polesitter and race-long leader Larry Baer.

One lap later, Baer went to the pits with a flat right rear tire just after a caution came out for Roy Warehime, Jr., who spun in turns one and two.

Tuckey assumed second for the lap nine restart, but Knaub, who started eighth, drove under the #22 for second in turn two.

For the next five laps, Knaub closed on Beard. The two were side-by-side to complete lap 13, and they raced that way except for two caution flags for the rest of the event.

Knaub kept pressuring Beard on the inside, and made one final attempt to make the pass as both cars were coming off turn four of the final lap. Knaub was actually ahead with about 50 feet to go, but couldn’t hold on. All officials agreed that the final margin of victory was less than six inches.

Travis McClelland started and finished third, with Mike Walls and Tuckey completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Chaz Walls, 12th-starting Bob Stough, 16th-starting Cam Zeigler, 14th-starting Fred Harden, and Steve Billet.

Heats for the 17 “358” late models were won by Baer and Beard.

Will Walls set a new 20-lap track record in claiming his first win of the year and fourth of his Trail-Way career in the thundercar feature.

Walls’ time of 6:08.33 bested Sam Gallagher’s old track record of 6:09.92 set on June 26th of last year. Walls started fourth, took the lead from Rick Weaver on lap seven, and led the rest of the way.

Ironically, it was Gallagher who finished second, with Kyle Martin coming from the back after a first-lap spin (resulting in a complete restart) to cross third, Weaver fourth, and Brad Shank fifth.

The lone heat for the nine thundercars was won by Walls.

West York’s Mark Strickler caught race-long leader Joe Robertson in heavy lapped traffic on lap 15 and scored the win in the 20-lap 1000cc “Sidewinder” micro-sprint feature.

Robertson settled for second, with Mike Dicely, Don Harvey, and 10th-starting Alex Schanz completing the top five.

Heats for the 16 Sidewinders were won by Rick Hench and Ben Murphy.

Hench didn’t start the feature, and Murphy, driving a Henchcraft car, lost a motor on the fourth lap of the feature, bringing out a red flag to clean fluids from the front stretch.

Kyle Rohrbaugh claimed the win when Matt Chronister slowed coming off the final turn of the 12-lap limited stock feature.

Chronister grabbed the lead from Brad Kress when Kress got out of shape in turn two of lap 10, and led until he pulled up lame coming to the finish line. Chronister was able to cross second, with Terry Hartlaub, Kress, and Rod Weaver completing the top five.

Heats for the 22 limited stocks were won by Kress, Joe Racine, and Hartlaub. Sarah Redmond won the consolation event.

Tomorrow (5/1), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, Excel Modifieds, Scramble Cars, Starlite 4cyl Ovals and Strictly Stocks are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at

6:30 p.m.

HAMMAKER WINS SECOND STRAIGHT IN INSINGER FUELS SPRING CHAMPIONSHIP;

JUSTIN BITTLE CLAIMS FIRST-EVER THUNDERCAR FEATURE WIN;

JOE RACINE BEST OF LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (04/23/10) –It’s been said race car drivers never retire the first time. Even if he’s “the Godfather.”

Dale Hammaker talked retirement after claiming the Lincoln Speedway track title last year.

But when 2010 arrived, the Hammaker’s Machine Shop/MAC Tools/Farnsworth #66 was in the pits.

And for the second time in-a-row, he found himself in victory lane at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.

“Now I can retire!” quipped Hammaker in victory lane, “I NEVER win two in a row!”

“I could hear Brad (McClelland) and Jeff (Rohrbaugh) back there,” continued Hammaker, “They are so good. So are Billy (Dietrich) and several others. It’s gonna be downright tough by the end of the year here.”

Hammaker got the luck of the draw to start on the outside of the front row, won the drag race to the first turn on all three attempts to start the race, and led all 25-laps to claim the $1,200 top prize in the Insinger Fuels 358 Sprint Spring Championship.

Third-starting Brad McClelland and fourth-starting Jeff Rohrbaugh raced for the runner-up spot over the second half of the race. Rohrbaugh got under polesitter Chad Criswell for second on lap two, and McClelland drove around Criswell for third on a 12th-lap restart. Rohrbaugh nearly spun in turns three and four of lap 17, handing the runner-up spot to the B&D Truck Hoist #6.

McClelland and Rohbaugh ran second and third the rest of the way, with Criswell and seventh-starting Logan Schuchart completing the top five. Rounding out the top ten were Randy Whisler, Keith Prutzman, Billy Dietrich, Joe Trone, Jr., and Tim Wagaman.

Heats for the 26 “358” sprint cars on hand were won by Hammaker, Jessie Morrison, and Randy Davis, Jr. Mike Ressler won the consolation event.

Justin Bittle won his first-ever thundercar feature after finding himself the leader when Brian Walls went to the pits with a flat right rear tire on lap 13 of the 20-lap event.

Bittle held off Will Walls and Jamie Zentmyer, the only other two cars on the lead at the end. Brian Walls and Brad Shank crossed fourth and fifth one lap down.

Will Walls won the lone qualifier for the nine thundercars in attendance.

Joe Racine remained undefeated in the 12-lap limited stock feature, claiming his third win in as many races.

Daryl Hanson, Robert Nicklow, Kyle Rohrbaugh, and Robbie Carroll completed the top five.

Heat wins for the 25 limited stocks were won by Racine, Wayne Blevins, and Cory Weishaar. Shane Miller won the consolation event.

Tomorrow (4/24), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, All American Outlaws, Scramble Cars,

and Starlite 4 & 6 cylinder Ovals are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

Next Friday (4/30), Trail-Way Speedway host the 358 Late Models for their second appearance of the season as well as the Thundercars, 1000cc Sidewinders and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

BROOKENS CLAIMS 14TH 600 WIN;

MURPHY BLOWS BY SIDEWINDER FIELD;

LIGHTENING BESTS THUNDER;

BITTLE, HANSON AND HOLLINGSWORTH CLAIM VICTORIES

Hanover, PA (04/17/10) – Jimmy Brookens is the leader of the All Time Winners list in the 600cc Micro Sprints at Trail-Way Speedway. Brookens’ win Saturday night was the 14th of his career at T-W. Brookens was scheduled to start 9th in the feature, but two cautions before one lap was completed moved him to the fifth starting position.

After the feature got underway, Brookens found himself in second place behind Jim Young. Brookens followed Young over the opening laps, but dove under Young in turn one of the sixth lap. Twelve-starting Tyler Walton was running third and tried to follow Brookens past Young in turn four, but couldn’t make the pass stick.

By the half way point, Brookens entered lapped traffic. “It was tricky with the (lapped) cars getting sideways, I was just so fast through the corners,” exclaimed Brookens after bringing his Twigg Cycle sponsored #11 into victory lane.

On the 13th lap, Walton took a look under Brookens in turns one and two. The caution came out before the next lap was completed, and Brookens pulled away from Walton and the rest of the 600 field. The caution flag flew again on the 16th lap for Bo Gordon who stopped on the track. Brookens got a good restart and started to pull away from the field. Walton closed the gap with three laps to go. Walton drove hard into turns 3 and 4 of the final lap, but Brookens picked up the win by several car lengths.

Walton crossed second with Young, Isaac Sneeringer and Dwayne Gutshall completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were Brad Weber, 17th-starting Arron Spahr, Shawn Seifert, Kody Lehman and Tanner Hunsicker. Heat winners for the 23 600cc Micro Sprints on hand were Skylar Felkner and Dwayne Gutshall.

Ben Murphy won his heat and started on the pole for the 20-lap feature event. Murphy grabbed the lead from the start and claimed the feature win during the nonstop race. Tyler Walton started fifth and passed Mark Strickler going into turn 3 and Seth Kearchner exiting turn four of lap five to take the second spot. By lap 8, Murphy was in lapped traffic and a lap later had a straightaway lead over Walton. Murphy picked up the win by 5 seconds over Walton and also broke the existing track record by 7 seconds.

Kearchner finished third with Mark Strickler and DJ Montgomery rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Joe Robertson, Jim Campbell, Jr., Rohan Beasley, Christian Wright and Jason Eisenhart completing the top ten. Joe Robertson and Ben Murphy picked up heat wins for the 14 Sidewinders.

Steve Daron dominated the first 18 laps of the 20-lap 270cc Micro Sprint feature event, but lapped traffic served as his demise. Behind Daron the battle was hot and heavy for the second through fourth positions as Jim Still, Bill “Lightening” Laughman and “Thundering” Nik Gower fought for the top spots. With two laps remaining, Still and Daron were side by side at the line. Still dove under Daron in turn one. Still and Daron made contact and Still took over the race lead. Before the lap was completed, Laughman drove around Still to grab the lead. Crossing the line behind Laughman were Gower, Still, Daron and Mike Boyer. Sixth through tenth were Michael Ertter, Dave Schreiber, Chris Kennedy, Austen Treuchet and Ryan Forsythe. Heat winners for the 22 270cc Micro Sprints were won by Michael Ertter and Jim Still.

Justin Bittle grabbed the lead at the start of the 12-lap Starlite 6cyl Oval feature. The race went flag to flag with Bittle winning by half a straightaway over Wes Kellison. Rick Hopkins dominated the first half of the Starlite 4cyl Oval feature, but Daryl Hanson passed Hopkins coming out of turn 2 on the sixth lap. Hanson ran away with the lead and created a new track record of 4 minutes, 6.64 seconds. Steve Hollingsworth grabbed the early race lead in the Scramble Car feature and despite pressure from Justin Mitchell, won his second Scramble Car feature of the season.

Next Friday (4/23), Trail-Way Speedway will hold the $1200 to win Insinger Fuel 358 Sprint Car Spring Championship. The Thundercars and Limited Stocks are also on the schedule. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

LEHMAN CLAIMS FIRST 600 WIN;

MONTGOMERY DOMINATES LEGENDS;

ERTTER HOLDS ON TO CLAIM 270 WIN;

MITCHELL WINS FIRST SCRAMBLE;

HOLLINGSWORTH GRABS 6CYL

Hanover, PA (04/10/10) – “I was just trying to hold the bottom so they wouldn’t get passed me,” explained Kody Lehman after pulling his Brewhouse Grille #47 in victory lane after claiming his first ever 600cc Micro Sprint victory.

Kody Lehman grabbed the early race lead from his pole position with fellow front row starter Jermain Godshall right behind Lehman. Kody Hartlaub and Tom Kohler made contact at the end of the straight-a-way causing Kohler to spin into the outside wall in turn one bringing out the caution. Before the field made it passed the accident, Brad Weber plowed into Kohler. All drivers were uninjured but only Kohler rejoined the tail end of the field.

The caution flew for the last time with six laps down for Brandon Yarlett, who stopped on the track. When the racing resumed, Lehman began to pull away from the field. Godshall closed the gap and was on Lehman’s rear bumper on the 13th lap. Godshall was unable to get around Lehman. Shawn Seifert then challenged Godshall for the second spot. The battle was then among Lehman, Godshall and Seifert as the three of them wanted the top position going into turn one of lap 19.

Crossing the finish line behind Lehman were Godshall, 10th-starting Jimmy Brookens, Brian Racine, and Seifert. Sixth through tenth were Isaac Sneeringer, 14th-starting Shane Lewis, Mike Rutherford, 22nd-starting Robert Kendall, and Jim Young. Heat winners for the 23 600cc Micro Sprints were J.B. Cunningham and Tom Kohler.

Outside front row starter Chad Glatfelter grabbed the early race lead in the 20-lap Legends Car feature event. Lucas Montgomery challenged Glatfelter for the lead on the third lap and went under Glatfelter in turn four to take the lead.

Montgomery caught the tail end of the field at the half way point, but was able to stretch out his lead over Glatfelter and the rest of the field. Harlon Leppo challenged Glatfelter for second with two laps remaining, but Glatfelter held on to finish second. Leppo was third with Blaine Leppo and Scott Houdeshall rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Reed Salony, Greg Burd, Robert Sobieski, Pat McDermott, and Shane Glatfelter. Greg Burd and Harlon Leppo picked up the heat wins for the 20 Central PA Legends on hand.

The start of the 20-lap 270cc Micro feature was marred by two cautions and two red flags. Shane Hoff spun before the leaders could complete the first lap. Polesitter Nathan Heindel led the first lap after the restart but was passed by Michael Ertter on the second lap. Michael Boer went end over end in three and four into the wall bringing out the first red flag. Boer was uninjured in accident, but was unable to continue.

After the restart, Bill Laughman made contact with Chris Kennedy in turn one and spun into the outside retaining wall. On the restart, Jim Still challenged Ertter for the race lead, but Ertter held on to the top spot. Ertter began to pull away from the rest of the field before Alex Spalding spun on the backstretch bringing out the caution with one lap to go. Still went to the outside of Ertter on the restart but Ertter held Still off to win his second career 270cc Micro Sprint win at Trail-Way Speedway by less than half a car length. Finishing third through fifth were twenty first starting Nik Gower, Dave Schreiber and Steve Daron. Michael Ertter and Bill Laughman won the heats for the 19 270cc Micro Sprints.

Polesitter Ray Hollingsworth took the lead at the start of the 12-lap Scramble Car feature with fourth-starting Justin Mitchell on his tail by the completion of lap four. Mitchell got passed Hollingsworth in turn four to lead lap seven. Mitchell was able to hold of Hollingsworth over the final laps and three restarts to pick up his first ever win after racing only four feature events.

Steve Hollingsworth battled early race leader Justin Bittle for the lead in the 12-lap Starlite 6cyl Oval feature. Bittle and teammate Douglas Smith got together on lap 4 after Hollingsworth grabbed the lead. Hollingsworth and second place Jimmy Tyson ran away from the rest of the field to finish first and second. Howard Lawson finished third with Tad Haugh and Coty Marsh rounding out the field.

HAMMAKER WINS FIRST OF YEAR IN TRAIL-WAY 358 SPRINTS;

GENE KNAUB BEST OF 358 LATE MODELS;

JOE RACINE TAKES SECOND STRAIGHT IN LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (04/9/10) –Dale Hammaker took no prisoners in scoring his first win of the year in the 25-lap 358 sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.

The Grantville driver known as “the Godfather” of the 358 sprint division started third and drove under polesitter Tim Wagaman for the race lead on the second lap.

After that, only opening night winner Brad McClelland could stay close. McClelland started eighth, advanced to third by the fifth lap, and grabbed second from Wagaman on lap 19.

A caution for a spinning George Streaker on the last lap gave McClelland one last chance, but Hammaker was up to challenge, holding off the B&D Truck Hoist #6 for his third career Trail-Way win.

“I love Trail_way! Last week I didn’t love Trail-Way,” deadpanned Hammaker in victory lane, “But normally I love Trail-Way.”

“Jeff (Rohrbaugh) got into me when I was getting lapped last week,” continued Hammaker, referring to the double-flip involving both him and Rohrbaugh, “You gotta run so hard here. There are so many good drivers. Jeff, Brad, Tim…Tim’s going to win a race soon…”

Wagaman was able to hang on for third, with Brian Bruckner and 12-starting Joe Trone, Jr. completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Keith Prutzman, Logan Schuchart, Troy Becker, Randy Davis, Jr., and Zach Euculano.

Billy Dietrich was uninjured when he broke a rear axle and flipped while running fourth on lap 14.

Three-time track champ Jeff Rohrbaugh lost a motor in his heat and was unable to start the feature.

Heats for the 23 “358” sprinters on hand were won by Wagaman, McClelland, and Randy Whisler.

Dover’s Gene Knaub took advantage of a slip by leader Mike Walls in turn two of lap 11 and cruised to the win in the 25-lap 358 late model feature.

Walls finished a distant second with Bernie Beard right on his bumper. Barry Welch crossed fourth, with Travis McClelland fifth.

Heats for the 12 “358” late models were won by Knaub and Mike Walls.

Cam Zeigler suffered a broken wrist when he crashed into the outside wall in turns three and four of his qualifying event.

Joe Racine won for the second time in as many weeks in the 12-lap limited stock feature.

Racine started tenth and caught Ricky Weaver, Jr. exiting turn two of the next-to-last lap.

Weaver settled for second, with Daryl Hanson third.

Heats for the 20 limited stocks were won by Kyle Rohrbaugh and Racine.

Tomorrow night (4/10), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, Central PA Legends, Scramble Cars, and Starlite 6 cyl Ovals are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. with racing beginning at 6:30 p.m.

FELKNER CLAIMS 600 FEATURE; GOWER WINS 21ST 270 FEATURE;

WYKES WINS FIRST SIDEWINDER FEATURE;

HANSON AND HOLLINGSWORTH CLAIM STARLITE 4CYL AND SCRAMBLE

Hanover, PA (04/3/10) –As Union Bridge, MD’s Skylar Felkner’s trailer says, “The Sky is the Limit”. Felkner proved just that on Saturday night at Trail-Way Speedway by claiming the 20-lap 600cc Micro Sprint feature. Felkner started on the pole of the feature after claiming his heat win.

“Starting up front always helps,” Felkner said after exiting the JFJ & Sons Construction #57 in victory lane. Felkner took the lead on the start of the event and never looked back. Sixth-starting Jimmy Brookens found his way to the second position on lap two after several cars got together and Tyler DeVault rolled over. DeVault was uninjured.

Felkner pulled away from Brookens on the restart but the field was slowed once again on lap eleven for Ken Leese who stopped on the exit of turn two. Brookens made contact with Leese, but Brookens only suffered a bent top wing. Two laps later, Chase Dietz and Isaac Sneeringer got hooked together and stopped in turn four.

Felkner once again pulled away from the field on the restart to cross under the checkers first with Brookens, 22nd-starting Robert Kendall, Brad Weber, and Shawn Seifert completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Tyler Walton, Jim Young, Tim Dietz, Dwayne Gutshall, and J.B. Cunningham.

Heats for the 31 600cc Micro Sprints were won by Felkner, Brookens, and Sneeringer. The consolation event was won by Kendall.

“It makes it more fun when you come from the rear,” exclaimed Hanover, PA’s Gower after parking his Barnhart Electric #10 in victory lane. Gower went to the rear after being involved in an accident on the first lap.

Michael Ertter took the lead after several attempts to start the 270cc Micro Sprint feature. Jim Still was running second with Dave Schreiber third. On the seventh lap, Nik Gower dove under Schreiber going into turn three to take the third spot.

The red flag came out on the eleventh lap after Kenny Kuhn and Angela Caruso got together and Kuhn flipped in turn two. Both drivers were uninjured and Kuhn was unable to continue.

While leading, Ertter slowed on the backstretch and pulled in the infield with five laps to go. Nik Gower inherited the lead after passing Jim Still for second the lap prior. Schreiber, Steven Cox and Dana LaMothe rounded out the top five. Caruso, 14th-starting Darren Schott II, and 15th-starting Ryan Forsythe were the only other drivers to complete the race. Ertter and Shane Hoff were awarded with ninth and tenth. Heats winners for the 16 270cc Micro Sprints on hand were Gower and Still.

DJ Wykes started on the pole and lead all 20-laps of the 1000cc Sidewinder feature event. Fellow front row starter Joe Robertson challenged Wykes for the lead throughout the race, but was never able to pass Wykes. Wykes and Robertson pulled away from the field in the non-stop event and reached lapped traffic with five laps to go.

The sixteen year old Wykes not only got his first ever Sidewinder win, but also put his name in the record books with a new 20 lap track record of 5 minutes, 9 seconds. Robertson finished second with Mark Strickler, Tracy Readinger, and Jason Morrison completing the top five.

Morrison and Wykes picked up the heat wins for the 14 1000cc Sidewinder Sprints.

Daryl Hanson started on the pole for the Starlite 4cyl Oval feature and led all 12 laps to pick up the win. Brad Kress tried to chase Hanson down but was unable to pass Hanson and settled for second. Rick Hopkins charged from his ninth starting spot to finish third. Brian Racine and Sarah Redmond rounded out the top five. Steve Hollingsworth led every lap in the Scramble Car feature to claim his first win of the season. Seventh-starting Justin Mitchell finished second with eighteenth-starting Broc Lawrence third.

Tuesday (4/6), Trail-Way Speedway will host an open practice session for all drivers. The cost is $40 per driver and a $5 pit fee. Gates open at 4:30 p.m. and racing is from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

McCLELLAND WINS WILD SEASON OPENER FOR 358 SPRINTS AT TRAIL-WAY;

KYLE MARTIN CLAIMS THUNDERCAR WIN; JOE RACINE TAKES LIMITED STOCKS

Hanover, PA (04/2/10) –Brad McClelland moved alongside Jeff Rohrbaugh at the top of the all-time Trail-Way win list in Friday’s season opener for the 358 sprints Friday night.

But he wouldn’t have, had Rohrbaugh not clipped a lapped car and flipped in turns one and two with three laps to go.

A redraw for the feature saw McClelland start on the pole and lead the first 15 laps. But Rohrbaugh, who started eighth, advanced through the field to dive under McClelland for the race lead in heavy lapped traffic entering turn one of lap 16.

Rohrbaugh, McClelland, and 14th-starting Billy Dietrich ran away from the field over the next six laps before Rohrbaugh and Dale Hammaker flipped simultaneously in turns one and two of lap 23. Both drivers were uninjured. The leaders were so far ahead of the rest of the field that Hammaker was running seventh at the time just in front of Rohrbaugh.

It was the second red flag of the event. Austin Reed vaulted over the first-turn catch fence in a spectacular crash while running third on lap three. He was also uninjured.

The Rohrbaugh crash put McClelland back in the lead with three laps to go. By that time, there were only five cars on the lead lap.

McClelland drove away to his 21st career win at the T-W, moving him back into a first-place tie with Rohrbaugh on the all-time win list.

“I didn’t think I could get through lapped traffic and Jeff did,” said McClelland upon exiting his B&D Truck Hoist #6, “But I guess he was a little impatient, and I got lucky to restart with the lead.”

“We had some issues with lapped traffic,” continued McClelland, “but in a couple of weeks, they’ll all be fast.”

Troy Becker, racing for the first time in three years, crossed third, with seventh-starting Tim Wagaman fourth and Keith Prutzman fifth. Sixth through tenth were 21st-starting Randy Davis, Jessie Morrison, Mike Bittinger, Scott Fisher (in first ever 358 sprint car race), and 20th-starting Peter Bartley.

Heat winners for the 21 “358” sprinters on hand were won by Wagaman, Brian Bruckner, and Joe Trone, Jr.

Kyle Martin claimed the Trail-Way season opener for thundercars.

Martin started third and got by second-starting Will Walls for the race lead in turns three and four of lap nine. He led the rest of the way, with Sam Gallagher second and Brad Shank third. Completing the top five were Justin Bittle and Brian Walls.

The lone qualifier for the 10 thundercars was won by Gallagher.

Joe Racine won the 15-lap limited stock feature. He started third and took the lead from Wayne Kopp on lap two. He led the rest of the way, with Kyle Rohrbaugh crossing second and Robert Nicklow third.

Heats for the 28 limited stocks were won by Justin Mitchell, Joe Racine, and Sam Gallagher.

Chad Weaver won the consolation event.

Tomorrow (4/3), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, 1000cc Sidewinders, Scramble Cars, and Starlite 4 cyl Ovals are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 with racing beginning at 6:30.

Next Friday (4/9), Trail-Way Speedway will host the 358 Sprint Cars, 358 Late Models, and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.

WALTON CLAIMS 600 PRO SERIES WIN AT TW;

STRICKLER DOMINATES SIDEWINDERS;

DARON HANGS ON FOR 270 WIN

Hanover, PA (03/27/10) – Out of the 50 600cc Micro Sprints present for the Hoosier Tire Mid Atlantic 600 Pro Series race presented by NPS Racing Engines, Tyler Walton picked up the win at Trail-Way Speedway.

“We got lucky again by starting third,” explained Tyler Walton after bringing his Hyper Racing #14T to victory lane for the second week in a row in the 600cc Micro Sprint feature. Qualifying for the main event used the passing points format in which 2 sets of heats were run and 1.5 points were awarded for each car passed. Shane Lewis accumulated the most points and started on the pole for the feature event.

Lewis claimed the early race lead with third starting Walton right behind. Walton followed Lewis over the first twelve laps before entering lapped traffic. On the fifteenth lap, Walton was on the rear bumper of Lewis and dove underneath Lewis in turns three and four to take away the lead. In victory lane, Walton said, “Shane Lewis, the Speedweek champion, we’re not going to catch him.” Lapped traffic provided the break Walton needed and he was ready to take advantage.

Lewis crossed the line second, with Mike Rutherford, Brian Carber, and Tim Dietz completing the top five. Dietz made a late race charge to the front by passing three cars in less than four laps. Sixth through tenth were Jake Murphy, Tyler DeVault, Dwayne Gutshall, Heath Hehnly, and Todd Hoover.

On the start of the 1000cc Sidewinder feature, Tyler Walton and Ben Murphy made contact sending Murphy spinning into the infield ending his night. The incident left Walton with a bent rear wheel, but Walton wanted to continue and took his position on the outside of the front row.

When the event was restarted, polesitter Mark Strickler claimed the lead over Walton and never looked back. Walton held onto second and tried to close the gap several times during the 20 lap event, but Strickler picked up the win by several car lengths over Walton. Jason Morrison finished third with DJ Montgomery and Rohan Beasley rounding out the top five. Strickler and Walton claimed the heat wins for the 14 Sidewinders.

Jim Still took the early race lead over fellow front row starter Steve Daron in the 20-lap 270cc Micro Sprint feature event. Fourth starting Tyler Snook claimed second and tried to chase down Still. On lap twelve, Heath Hehnly went to the inside of Snook to claim second. Snook slid up the racing surface in turn four allowing Hehnly and Nik Gower to get around him. However, in turns one and two, Hehnly and Gower spun, handing second back to Snook.

With two laps remaining, Still and Snook were side by side at the start/finish line. Snook had the bottom line and tried to drive under Still in the first turn. The two made contact, Still spun and Snook bounced off the outside wall. Still was able to continue, but Snook’s night was over. Third place Steve Daron inherited the lead for the restart. Daron held on to the lead for the final two laps to pick up the feature win. Crossing the line behind Daron were Pete Skias, Nik Gower, Dave Schreiber, and Phil Rupert rounding out the top five. Heat winners for the 20 270cc Micros were Gower and Still.

Next Friday(4/2), is the first Friday night race at Trail-Way Speedway for the 358 Sprint Cars, Thundercars, and Limited Stocks Gates open at 5:30 and racing begins at 7:30. Next Saturday (4/3), the 600cc and 270cc Micro Sprints, 1000cc Sidewinders, Scramble Cars, and Starlite 4 cyl Ovals are on the schedule. Gates open at 4:30 with racing beginning at 6:30.

WALTON DOMINATES 600 FEATURE;

MR. CONSISTENCY WINS IN 270S;

SCHANZ CLAIMS SIDEWINDERS

Hanover, PA (03/20/10) – A beautiful opening day at Trail-Way Speedway had a total of 88 cars check into the pit area. In the 600cc Micro Sprint Division, Tyler Walton won his heat and drew the pole position in the redraw for the feature event. Walton grabbed the lead over fellow front row starter Bo Gordon and never looked back. Third starting Tom Kohler took the second spot from Gordon before the completion of the first lap. Fourth starting Ryan Greth slid into the third spot on the second lap. Walton, Kohler, and Greth remained the top three for the first seven laps. Following the first caution for Mike Dicely and Kyle Ganoe, Greth passed Kohler for the second spot.

The second and final caution of the feature came out on the ninth lap for a spin by Ed Carber. After the restart, Walton, Greth and Kohler pulled away from the rest of the field but were too far apart from each other to challenge for the lead. After Walton caught the tail end of the field, Greth began to close the gap.

“You just never know what to do in lapped traffic. But I guess it worked out,” said an excited Walton after pulling his Hyper Racing/Juniata Beverage #14T into victory lane. Following Walton, Greth, and Kohler across the line were Heath Hehnly and Mike Rutherford completing the top five.
