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
