WoO Late Models to visit <strong>Fonda</strong><br />

By RON SZCZERBA<br />

<strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong><br />

FONDA — <strong>The</strong>re is nothing like<br />

the excitement which is built up by<br />

a first time visit to a race track by a<br />

series of race cars<br />

that have never<br />

competed at that<br />

particular race<br />

track before. That<br />

will be the case on Wednesday,<br />

June 19 when the World of Outlaw<br />

Late Model Series will visit the<br />

“Track of Champions” <strong>Fonda</strong><br />

<strong>Speedway</strong> for the first time.<br />

Also on the schedule that evening<br />

will be the modified division which<br />

will be competing in a 30-lap feature<br />

event. On Wednesday, June 19<br />

the pit gates will open at 4:00 p.m.<br />

while the front gates will open at<br />

5:00 p.m. General admission for<br />

adults will be $30 while ages 6-11<br />

will be $3.00 and ages 1-5 will be<br />

free.<br />

According to the history of the<br />

World of Outlaw Late Model Series<br />

which is on their website<br />

www.woolms.com the World of<br />

Outlaws Late Model Series is the<br />

nation's premier traveling tour for<br />

dirt Late Model stock cars. A<br />

cousin of the longer-running World<br />

of Outlaws series for winged Sprint<br />

Cars that was founded by the late<br />

Ted Johnson in 1978, the World of<br />

Outlaw Late Model Series first ran<br />

in 1988-89 under the direction of<br />

Johnson. <strong>The</strong> series sat dormant<br />

until being rekindled in 2004 by<br />

the World Racing Group and has<br />

grown in each season since then to<br />

take its place as the most competitive<br />

and lucrative tour for dirt Late<br />

Model racers.<br />

A dirt Late Model is a full-bodied,<br />

purpose-built race car that<br />

headlines arguably the most popular<br />

dirt-track division in the U.S.<br />

and Canada.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re is no cubic inch limit for<br />

the aluminum-head engines, but<br />

most teams use power plants of<br />

400-430 cubic inches that produce<br />

over 800 horsepower. Dozens of<br />

builders construct dirt Late Model<br />

chassis, and the bodies of the cars<br />

are designed to resemble popular<br />

street-car makes from manufacturers<br />

such as Chevrolet, Ford, Pontiac,<br />

etc. <strong>The</strong> cars weigh 2,300<br />

pounds and run on racing gasoline.<br />

A standard one-day show is headlined<br />

by a 50-lap A-Main that pays<br />

$10,000 to win from a total purse<br />

of around $50,000.<br />

Only the biggest names in dirt<br />

Late Model racing have been able<br />

to join the select group of World of<br />

Outlaw Late Model Series title<br />

holders. Arkansas legend Billy<br />

Moyer holds three championships<br />

(1988, 1989, 2005); Tennessee's<br />

Scott Bloomquist won the first<br />

crown of the tour's modern era in<br />

2004; New Yorker Tim McCreadie<br />

came out on top of a titanic six-driver<br />

battle for the title in 2006; Kentucky's<br />

Steve Francis broke through<br />

for his first title in 2007 after finishing<br />

second in the points standings<br />

three times; Kentuckian<br />

Darrell Lanigan set a record for<br />

largest points margin by a champion<br />

in 2008 and was crowned<br />

champion again last year in 2012;<br />

21-year-old West Virginian Josh<br />

Richards became the youngest<br />

champ in series history in 2009 and<br />

then backed it up in 2010 by putting<br />

himself in the record books as<br />

the only repeat champion since the<br />

World Racing Group began operating<br />

the series in 2004; and longtime<br />

regular Rick Eckert broke<br />

through for his first crown in 2011<br />

after a dramatic battle with<br />

Richards that was decided on the<br />

final lap of the season.<br />

Two local stars who follow the<br />

World of Outlaw Late Model Series<br />

are Tim McCreadie and Tim Fuller<br />

both of whom list their hometowns<br />

as Watertown, NY. As stated earlier<br />

McCreadie was crowned the<br />

World of Outlaw Late Model<br />

Champion in 2006 and was named<br />

Rookie of the Year in 2004 while<br />

Fuller has yet to win a title with the<br />

series but was crowned as Rookie<br />

of the Year in 2007. McCreadie<br />

has a total of 22 “A” Main feature<br />

event wins on the series including<br />

two this season while Fuller has 12<br />

“A” Main wins on the series none<br />

of which came so far this year but<br />

he does have a total of three top five<br />

finishes so far this season.<br />

Current point standings coming<br />

in to the event at the <strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong><br />

on Wednesday, June 19 show<br />

Josh Richards leading the way with<br />

2,560 points followed by Shane<br />

Clanton with 2,526, Darrell Lanigan<br />

with 2,500, Rick Eckert with<br />

2,458, Tim Fuller with 2330, and<br />

Tim McCreadie with 2,312.<br />

Over the last two seasons the<br />

Lucas Oil Late Model Series competed<br />

at the <strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong> with<br />

Jimmy Owens winning both of<br />

those events.<br />

Modified Race Report<br />

Stewart Friesen poses in Victory Lane after winning the modified feature June 8 at <strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong>.<br />

Friesen records modified win<br />

By RON SZCZERBA<br />

<strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong><br />

FONDA — <strong>The</strong> heavy rain that<br />

drenched the <strong>Fonda</strong> area on Thursday<br />

and Friday threw a curve ball<br />

into track conditions<br />

for all of the<br />

racers on Saturday<br />

evening but<br />

the <strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong><br />

track crew did a great job to<br />

even get the track race ready for the<br />

Saturday evening racing program.<br />

When the checkered flag flew to<br />

complete the modified feature event<br />

defending track champion Stewart<br />

Friesen was in victory lane for the<br />

fourth time this season and the 14th<br />

time in his career at the Track of<br />

Champions and he gave a lot of<br />

credit to the <strong>Fonda</strong> track crew.<br />

"It was a very demanding race<br />

track tonight but the track crew did<br />

an amazing job to get it ready for<br />

racing tonight as they needed to get<br />

the show in," Friesen said.<br />

Other winners at <strong>Fonda</strong> on Saturday<br />

were Chris Schaffer (1st career<br />

win in the 602 sportsman division),<br />

Pete Broderson (pro stock), Rob<br />

VanAernam (street stock), Ken Hollenback<br />

(single cam 4-cylinder), and<br />

Shaun Ryba (dual cam 4-cylinder).<br />

Justin Boehler led lap one of the<br />

modified feature from his outside<br />

pole position start before modified<br />

rookie Brian Gleason took over the<br />

top spot on lap two after starting<br />

alongside Boehler on the front row.<br />

A.J. Romano started the event in the<br />

sixth position and on lap three got by<br />

Boehler for the second spot. Three<br />

laps later the top two cars of Gleason<br />

and Romano were a straightaway<br />

ahead of third-place runner<br />

Alton Palmer.<br />

Jeremy Wilder and Friesen who<br />

started 14th made up the top five in<br />

the event by lap 12 with Friesen<br />

going between the lap car of Ed Harris<br />

and Wilder for the fourth position<br />

one lap later. <strong>The</strong> yellow flag was<br />

out on lap 17 and on the restart the<br />

red flag was thrown after Danny<br />

Varin ended up on his roof in turn<br />

four with Todd Morey also involved.<br />

Varin was not injured but<br />

was very disappointed as he was<br />

running 10th after starting 26th.<br />

On the next restart, Friesen took<br />

the third position away from Palmer<br />

and a short time later was the new<br />

second place car after getting by<br />

Gleason on lap 18. Romano held a<br />

comfortable lead at that point but<br />

was showing signs of smoke as he<br />

raced in lap traffic with Friesen closing<br />

in quickly. With seven laps remaining,<br />

Friesen was right on the<br />

rear bumper of Romano but despite<br />

the smoke coming from his car Romano<br />

did not let off the gas.<br />

With five laps to go in the event<br />

Friesen made a bonsai move under<br />

Romano in turn four and made contact<br />

with Romano but let off allowing<br />

Romano to recover and hold on<br />

to the lead at that point. Romano was<br />

three wide between lap cars to hold<br />

on to the lead on lap 26 but one lap<br />

later there was nothing slowing<br />

Friesen's progress as he got by Romano<br />

in turn four for the lead.<br />

Friesen went on to his second win<br />

in a row over Romano, Jeff Trombley,<br />

Matt DeLorenzo, and Gleason.<br />

In victory lane, Friesen dedicated<br />

the win to Bill Anagnostopulos from<br />

the Winners Circle who passed<br />

away earlier that day.<br />

"This one is for Bill and his family,"<br />

Friesen said. "He was my extra<br />

motivation tonight."<br />

Schaffer picks up first career win<br />

By RON SZCZERBA<br />

<strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong><br />

FONDA — Drew Fallis took the lead from<br />

Kurtis Hohensheldt on a lap two restart in the<br />

602 sportsman feature event and by lap four was<br />

a straightaway ahead of second-place<br />

runner Chris Schaffer<br />

with both trying to negotiate<br />

lap traffic at that point.<br />

Schaffer was up to the rear<br />

bumper of the race leader Fallis by lap nine and<br />

at the halfway point in the 20-lap event the top<br />

five consisted of Fallis, Schaffer, Mark<br />

Mortensen, Adam McAuliffe and Dave Constantino.<br />

Constantino started the event in the 11th position<br />

and on lap 12 was the new fourth-place car<br />

with the yellow coming out on lap 16 for last<br />

week's winner Ricky Quick who came to a stop<br />

in turn two. On the restart the red flag was out for<br />

Shea Montgomery who was on his roof in turn<br />

two. He wasn't injured but was done for the night<br />

at that point.<br />

On this restart Schaffer took over the lead and<br />

held on the rest of the way for his first career win<br />

in the division over Fallis, Constantino, McAuliffe<br />

and Rocky Warner who started the event in<br />

the 19th position. With the win, Schaffer was the<br />

seventh different winner in the division in seven<br />

events.<br />

“I am so excited I really don't know what to<br />

say,” Schaffer said in victory lane. “A few weeks<br />

ago, I was leading and had carburetor failure<br />

which was very disappointing but tonight Drew<br />

(Fallis) kept leaving me a hole on the bottom of<br />

turn four and I said if he leaves me that again I am<br />

going to take it. On the restart, he did that and I<br />

was able to get by him for the lead and the win.”<br />

Broderson earns pro stock victory<br />

By RON SZCZERBA<br />

<strong>Fonda</strong> <strong>Speedway</strong><br />

FONDA — <strong>The</strong> pro stock feature<br />

began with Luke Horning as<br />

the race leader but before the lap<br />

was completed<br />

Jim Normoyle<br />

had taken over<br />

the race lead with<br />

Horning involved<br />

in a wreck after he and Nick Stone<br />

got together in turn four collecting<br />

other cars in the process. Also involved<br />

were defending track champion<br />

Pete Broderson and Kenny<br />

Gates who were both able to continue<br />

on at the rear of the field.<br />

On the restart Kenny Martin Jr.<br />

was the new race leader with another<br />

yellow out on lap six with<br />

Broderson already up to the fourth<br />

spot. At the halfway point, Broderson<br />

was the new second place car<br />

behind Martin and when Martin<br />

slid up high in turn four on lap 12<br />

Broderson and Normoyle were both<br />

able to get by him for positions one<br />

and two.<br />

Normoyle pressured Broderson<br />

over the remaining laps but Broderson<br />

went on to his third win of the<br />

season and the 12th of his career at<br />

<strong>Fonda</strong> over Normoyle, Martin,<br />

Gates and Dave Emigh.<br />

“We were hoping to go out with a<br />

bang as I have to have shoulder surgery<br />

this week and may not be back<br />

the rest of the year,” Broderson said<br />

in victory lane.<br />
