Reeser captures PASS win at Williams Grove

MECHANICSBURG, Pa. (May 27) – Tyler Reeser rebounded from early-season engine troubles and returned to victory lane at Williams Grove Speedway Friday night after holding off Colby Dice for the Pennsylvania Sprint Series win. Donnie Hendershot led the first lap before Reeser took over following a close race back to the line. Reeser had just seen Colby Dice drive into second when the red flag appeared on the fourth lap for a second-turn flip by Zach Newlin. Dice challenged Reeser briefly when action resumed but Reeser was up to the challenge, opening up a near straightaway advantage at points to pick up the win. Dice rode home second followed by Jaremi Hanson, Ken Duke and John Martin. John Barnett was the Wee Bee Audio and Video Hard Charger in the event, finishing eighth after starting 22nd in the feature. Feature results – 1. Tyler Reeser; 2. Colby Dice; 3. Jaremi Hanson; 4. Ken Duke; 5. John Martin; 6. Stephanie Dodson; 7. Kyle Ganoe; 8. John Barnett; 9. Cale Reigle; 10. Scott Lutz; 11.

Hard charger Wauge pockets $1,500 for Haudenshild Tribute win 

By Don Martin II WHITE CITY, Ore. (May 28) – With a $1,500 top prize and a berth on the ballot for the Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational on the line, Mark Wauge impressed with his charge to the front of the pack for the Xtreme Motor Sports IMCA Modified victory at Southern Oregon Speedway’s Roger Haudenshild Tribute Race. Wauge started in the last row in a 30-lapper that ran with just one caution flag and a complete restart. He took the lead from long tow Darrell Hughes II on lap 20.  Once in front, Wauge was not to be denied as he pulled away for the win. After a multi-car crash resulted in a complete restart, Brian Poppa shot into the lead on the open­ing lap. What proved to be the last caution of the contest flew on the next circuit. Hughes pressured Poppa hard for the lead before using an inside pass on lap five to gain the lead. Wauge was already sixth by then and raced his way into the top four two laps later. [Read More]

Rust races from ‘B’ feature to Hawkeye Dirt Tour checkers

VINTON, Iowa (May 30) – Once he made the Memorial Day main event, Joel Rust figured he had the car to be a contender. He figured right. Rust qualified for Monday’s Hawkeye Dirt Tour opener at Benton County Speedway by running second in his “B” feature, started 16th in the field of 28 and promptly raced to his career-first Xtreme Motor Sports IMCA Modified Series victory. Rust passed fellow “B” qualifier Todd Shute with 13 circuits left in the 40-lapper and led to the $1,000 checkers. “I haven’t run a lot of features that long. I knew my car was good on the bottom and I got to fifth by midway,” the new Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational ballot qualifier said. “I’d had success here in a SportMod but last night was the first night here with this car. It was cool to be able to win this race especially with the caliber of cars.” Forty-eight Modifieds, the most-ever for an HDT event at Vinton, were on hand for the holiday show.  Shute, Tony Snyder, Chris Abelson [Read More]
