Billy was super fast wheel the high powered 410 Sprints around the 8 lane oval. The racing in the Sprint car class was hands down 1 of the best races in several years. 1st to 4th were separated by less than 14 track segments. All of the racers were highly contested and close racing. Billy was on his game last night cruising to 1 segment win. Billy edged out 2nd place finisher Mike Fitzgerald by 4 pieces of track for the feature win. Mike edged out Eric Beard by 3 pieces of track for 2nd place.

Pit Gossip:
Congrats to Billy Decker on the feature. It was nice to see Bill Decker get that feature win. Billy works very hard on his stuff and is always willing to help new people and current racers get going. This was a win for all of us. It was SO cool to see Billy’s reaction when the scores were posted. Billy also got to share a piece of Modified victory lane – The #73 Gary Balough car Tom Wenner drove to the win was a fresh built car by Bill with a stock armature. Not cut or advanced, Bone stock. If you need a car built – Bill is on his game this season. Incredibly close action in the 410 Sprint Car race. 1st to 5th were covered by a blanket. 8 racers showed up to compete – We are racing lanes 3-4-5-6 which has shown the group to be very competitive. Great to see Eric Beard hit the podium this week, Eric has been fast and finally put together a solid run with the Sprints. Missing in action this week – Mike, James and Hiram who is currently away. Randy 2.0 is not himself when Hiram is not here. Check out the photos posted – 1 of the closest finishes in Randy’s Raceway history – Bill Decker v. Toby Reinhard for the Sprint Car win. We also had some rough wrecks. The Speed Shop will be busy repairing cars this week.
October 6 – NASCAR & IROC on the 8 Lane Oval – IROC Class TBD
