Oakland Valley Speedway

                   Race Report by John  Sainz

 

June 4, 2011: Racing resumed after a Memorial Day weekend break at Oakland Valley Speedway with a great turnout, including the World Formula Modified Tour and the Unlimited All-Stars making an appearance. Track conditions were awesome and fast. I didn’t get to watch the UAS  race as my class was out right after them, but I could hear them and saw the smoke! It was a great show. The leaders were running lap times in the low to mid 12 second range. That is FAST!! John Garde and Steve Windle,Jr battled to the checkered flag with John Garde taking the win by less than a tenth of a second. The KT 100 class had Alan Accardo taking the win. In the World Formula Modified Tour race, a very fast Kyle Bostick pulled away for the win in a good field of Microstocks.

     The Heavys class, with fourteen entered, had Bill Wood picking up the win for back to back wins. Adam Fredericks made his return to Oakland Valley Speedway and placed a very close second. Brianna Hasenflue took third. In the Kid Kart class, Johnny Diotte,III took the win  over Trenton Baldwin, and in Rookie Champ, Devin Greer wins over Jake Mason. Carly Dippel wins in Rookie Slingshot.

      The Lights class had Dylan Wood, last weeks runner up, pick up his first win of the year with Glen Varner second and Joe Accardo third. Great job by Dylan. In the Junior Slingshot class, Tyler Johnston picks up his second win after three second place finishes in a row. Erin Paulison takes second with Leo Fotopoulos third. In the Senior Slingshot class, Eddie Reiley is rolling. He picked up his third win in a row and third of the year, over Joey Massimilla and John Mann. In Junior Sportsman Champs, Sean Glennon took the win in a good race, over Tighe Sherlock. Samantha Mattera came in third. In Junior Clone, Andrew Enderes,Jr. picked up his first win, and Sean Glennon took the win in Junior 2 over Jake Lowther.

       The Junior Stock Class had Scott Bentley wins for the second race in a row with Logan Cole close behind for second. Geoffrey Fox was third. Junior 3 had Geoffrey Fox  pulling away for the win. The Senior Stock class had Chris Melchor taking the win over Kevin Morgan and John Wolfe. In the Mediums class, Adam Fredericks held off the hard charging Bill Wood to take the win. Allison Lockhart was a close third. Good race. In Senior Champ, John Sainz took the win with Bob Mattera second and Lights class winner Dylan Wood third.

       We will be closed next week, so we will see you at the track in two weeks. Be sure to stop in to JK Performance Kart shop located at the track. John Diotte,Jr. has everything you need to get started racing including rental karts. He also builds great racing engines.  We are a Millenium kart dealer and there is a brand new Millenium Impulse kart on display at the kart shop. Stop in and check it out. Also be sure to see Becky of BK Photos and Ralph Corwin for all your photos from the day’s events.
