CSRA vs. NCMA SPRINT CARS 11 CARS TROPHY DASH: FIRST HEAT: SECOND HEAT:
FEATURE: (20 laps) This was the first of six CSRA
Wingless Sprint club visits to Chowchilla Speedway, and the general
feeling expressed by many participating teams was one of gratitude
that they were able to race at all. Recent rain storms forced most The Wingless Sprints had two flag to
flag heat races, and young Steven Williams took the first win in his
WW Generators sprinter after making a bold pass on veteran driver Gary
Koster in turn three, followed by sophomore driver Rob Hammond of The 20 lap feature ran accident free
and fast on the well prepared tacky track. Pole starter Scott Pierson
led the first two circuits until he took turn one high and went off
the track for the first yellow. Goodwill took the point and checked
out with a healthy lead over Hammond and Siverling. Mid pack showed
lots of dicing for position between Koster, Shipherd, and Amador, and
at lap 18 Williams made the move on The CSRA teams donated candy and
toys to fill Easter baskets for children in the stands, who were also
treated to an Easter bunny visit. Many teams hung around after the
races to visit with friends and fans they hadn't seen over the winter,
and it was wonderful to see the cars all loaded on trailers undamaged.
Special thanks to driver Jimmy Lavell who was still finishing up
engine work on his car, as he loaded up his quad to come out and help
push his fellow drivers. Chowchilla's Rev. Ron got us all off to a
great safe season start with a prayer at the drivers meeting. There is
nothing that compares to experiencing the smell of methanol fumes and
the roar of engines as the 2005 CSRA season begins! The next race for
the CSRA Wingless Sprints will be at |
