Pit Rumblings:

Congrats to Mike and Chris on their breakthrough feature event wins. 2020 is showing that this year is far more competitive with closer racing than in any year prior. While we are only racing lanes 3-4-5-6 – The racing is extremely tight, Nobody is walking away lapping the field and many races come down to the last lap with photo finishes. Several in both divisions this week once again. While no points are being kept, The coolness factor is pegged every week. Only 7 racers in the house this week, Several guys missing – Hiram, Toby, and Brian. All racing was completed by 800p. I am enjoying the early nights, It is nice to get home early. IROC racing this week – Randy provided TYCO 440X2 Wide Pan Chassis Dirt Mods with 5 ohm armatures by legend Edward Reifinger. These cars rocked around the Randy’s high banks. Good to see Mike and James running power this week. With these head counts, Everyone is jumping in.

Next Week: What everyone is waiting for – Coupe Bodied Modifieds & 410 Sprint Cars on the Randy’s Raceway Tri-Oval. Yes, Folks – Wreckers stand by – Sprints on the Tri-Oval.

Door Slammer Notes:

Track Promoter Randy held a short driver’s meeting at the start of the night to review a potential Kutztown Boro Ordinance they may affect racing moving forward this season. Randy reviewed with the driver’s in attendance a plan to race on Tuesday and Wednesday Nights this season in smaller groups of 10 or less. Please stay tuned to the tracks Facebook Page, Website and Email for details this weekend in regard to racing next week. Randy will need to know in advance of all driver’s plans to race so we can provide a racing slot on 1 of the 2 scheduled race nights…More details to come on this. With 9 drivers in attendance for the new FUN themed racing Nascar Tyco 440×2 Bodied cars were on the card for racing. It was decided by the group to race 4 lanes – 3,4,5, and 6 and race for 15 laps. Action in the Hot Lanes was fiercely competitive. We saw some of the most competitive wheel to wheel racing in several years. We had 2 photo finishes that needed a camera replay to determine the winners. Almost every segment the race for the lead was 2 & 3 wide racing down to the finish.

After missing out of the Sprint car title last year by 3 points Randy Haydt came into this campaign being sure for that not to happen a again. Randy had a super fast Green machine all year as he racked up the most segment wins ( 25 ), scored 2 wins late in the season, along with 4 Runner Up’s on way to a convincing but very close point title. Randy was on his game all year as he held off a strong run from last year’s champion Mark Williams. Randy held off Mark by 6 points. Mark had a strong season as he opened the season with a win and ended the season with a win, along with 4 Top 5 runs in the middle of the year. Big improvement for Tom Wenner as he scored his 1st career winged win than came back to make it 2 straight wins finishing off the season 3rd in the final totals. Scott Bender had a good year as he scored 5 Top 5 ‘s, along with 8 segment wins to finish 4th. Jim LeVan had his usual steady season running his brightly colored #1 to a 5th place finish. Jim had a season best 3rd place run in mid season, along with 2 segment wins.

6 – 10 – Toby Reinhard improved 1 spot from last year to finish 6th, Billy Decker opened the season with a 4th place finish, was 7th, Hiriam Durant had a late season 4th place finish, along with 4 segment wins was 8th, Tony Zappacosta scored his best Sprint car finish with 5th place finish was 9th, and Brian Vanbuskirk had a 8th place finish early in the year to close out the Top 10.

11th – Larry Sanders 12th / Cory Reinhard ( 3 wins ) / 13th Brian Sponagle ( 1 win ) / 14th Jason Bender / 15th Austin Yerk.
