FREMONT, Ohio - Todd Heuerman used a
great restart following a late race
caution to drive around Bill Kraylek and
to on to the biggest sprint car win
of his career - a $2,500 payday in the
All Pro Cylinder Heads 305 Sprint
Invitational at Fremont Speedway Sunday
night.
Heuerman used a restart following a
lap 17 caution to pass Kraylek on the
outside exiting turn four for the lead.
He then picked his way perfectly
through lapped traffic to take his fourth
career victory at "The Track That
Action Built."
"I would get a run on him and then the
caution would come out. Then he would
pull away. I knew I had to change
something so I drove it in harder in turns
three and four and that got me going,"
said Heuerman in the Engine Pro
Victory Lane beside his Schroeder
Masonry, Dale's Concrete, Sam Gerdeman
Trucking backed sprint car.
Bellevue's Mike Bores also used a
restart to drive around Jeremy Canada and
then hold off Wayne Maffett Jr. to score
his second career Fremont win - and
the second of the season - in the Attica
Late Model's feature.
"Rich (Farmer) and Andy (James) gave
us a great race track. My hat's off to
Jeremy Canada, Wayne Maffett, Ryan
Missler...those guys race you hard and
clean," said Bores in the Engine Pro
Victory Lane beside his JB & Sons
Contracting, York Fabrication,
Underground Utilities backed late model.
Castalia's Dan Hennig moved from
asphalt racing to dirt this year, and it
paid off, as he took the lead on the
third lap and went on to claim his
first career victory in his rookie season
in the Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks.
"Racing on the dirt is a lot different
than asphalt. There's tougher drivers
here and it demands more from the
driver," said Hennig beside his Reidy's
Body Shop, York Fabrication, Jeffery
Lettering backed truck. "I just had to
concentrate and hit my marks. I have to
thank all the drivers in the truck
division...they have been so helpful this
season."
At the drop of the green in the 30-lap
feature for the Fremont Federal
Credit Union 305 Sprints, Brad Bowman
jumped into the lead with Coty Runion,
Kraylek, Heuerman and Jake Trevino in
tow. A yellow would soon fly for
Runion and Dustin Keegan. Bowman would
lead the second lap before the yellow
would fly again when Paige Polyak drove
over Nate Dussel, sending the later
pitside.
On the restart, Kraylek would drive
under Bowman for the lead with Heuerman,
Trevino and Zack Kramer rounding out the
top five. The yellow would fly
again on lap five for a Brad Haudenschild
spin. Following another lap,
another caution for D.J. Foos, then
another lap and another caution for
another Haudenschild spin, then another
lap and another yellow for Duane
Zablocki.
Then the race found a groove with
Kraylek and Heuerman battling for the lead
while Bowman and Kramer raced hard for
third. The final caution would fly on
lap 17 just as the leaders were hitting
lapped traffic. It could have
spelled disaster for Kraylek, as three
cars got together right in front of
the him...he spun but did a couple of
360s to keep going and hold his lead.
Heuerman made his winning move on the
ensuing restart. Kramer would get
around Kraylek for second on lap 19. The
car on the move was Kevin Lee, who
moved from his 14th starting spot to
fourth by lap 19. He and Kraylek
battled the next 10 laps for third before
Lee would take the position on the
white flag.
At the checkered it was Heuerman,
Kramer, Lee, Kraylek and Steve Rando
rounding out the top five. Lee earned a
new crankshaft from Callie's
Performance as the race hard-charger
gaining 11 positions in the feature
event.
In the 20-lap late model feature,
Jeremy Canada jumped into the early lead
with Jim Fleming pressuring while Bores,
Ernie Haynes, Steve Sabo and Ryan
Missler battled for third. Bores would
move into second on the second lap
and would race side-by-side with Canada
for the lead the next five laps
before the caution would fly for a Noah
Wagner spin.
Another lap and another caution later,
Bores would make his winning move on
a restart, driving to the outside of
Canada for the lead on lap nine. The
car on the move was Wayne Maffett Jr.,
moving from seventh to second by lap
11. The final cautions would fly on laps
11 and 12, with Bores getting a
great restart to pull away from Maffett
who had been driving beside him on
the bottom.
Maffett would slip up on lap 14,
allowing Ryan Missler to grab the second
spot. Steve Sabo would move into third a
lap later.
Bores would take the checkered over
Missler, Sabo, Maffett and Jeff McCoy.
Rookie Will Tezak would take the lead
at the drop of the green for the
20-lap dirt truck feature with Paul Brown
Jr., Loren Schwochow and Hennig in
tow. Brown would exit with a flat tire a
lap later while Hennig would drive
around Schowochow for second. Hennig
would take the lead on the third
circuit right before the caution would
fly for a Bob Dible Spin.
Hennig could not shake Tezak and a
closing Steve Endicott on the restart.
Endicott would grab second on lap 7 while
the truck on the move was 12th
starter Cory Ward who had moved into
third by lap 11. Hennig and Endicott
would battle side-by-side from lap 7
through lap 14 when the caution flew
for a Ward spin.
On the restart Hennig would pull away
slightly from Endicott who had his
hands full with Jim McGrath. Hennig would
take the checkered over Endicott,
McGrath, Jim Keegan and Jimmy McGrath Jr.
Fremont Speedway will be back in
action Saturday, Sept. 6, as Ohio CAT
presents the O'Reilly All Star Circuit of
Champions in a 50-lap $5,000 to
win thriller. The 305 sprints and dirt
trucks will also be in action.
