Brock Zeafoss wins one for The Posse... congratuations!

http://williamsgrove.com/17Results/results7-21-17.htm

Guess I can say I was surprised, but really wasn't.  This guy has shown the past 2-3 years he can drive a sprint car really well.  All the pressure on him last night with those last 3-4 restarts, but he passed the test.

The 69k and the cushion mixes like TSR and small block Fords.  Wish I would have gone.  Great stuff.  Once again, the cushion gives a guy with a big heart a chance without Davey Brown or Ricky Warner.  Since everyone seems to only care about the drivers and are perfectly happy with the cars and engines being a mute point, I would think this would obviously be an important factor.

Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Yea Mr. Perfect who was leading in the 69k is like oil and water with a cushion.  Can't handle it.  That made my night.  Super happy for Brock and car owner Aaron Long.  Would like to see the same result tonight.

You're a fucking jackass. Please go away. Anyone that takes delight in someone crashing better not be sitting near me.

So much for the posts from parts unknown after the Doty and Larson tour of PA saying the Posse is down on talent this year. 

Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH 
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

His Facebook page was blowing up with comments when I looked this morning. Zearfoss put a post on phis age shprtly after winning on Friday night:

"We just won a freaking' outlaw race at Williams Grove Speedway. Unbeliveable. I can't believe it."

As of a couple minutes ago, there were already 219 replies, including several drivers.

Thinking the same thing...this forum would be exploding if an Outlaw won. But a young gun Posse driver wins his first WoO race and it's "chirp, chirp, chirp"! 

Feel bad for Lance, had the field covered, but it's great to see yet another Posse member step up when one of the best has an issue! Like to see 69K try again tonight but the forecast isn't looking good.

Lance will be right up front tonight if they get the race in.  He can win in anything and on any type of surface.  Have seen it dozens of times (dry, slick, wet, tacky, rough, high, low, etc.). He'll be in the mix for sure ... and I hope Zearfoss is too!!

Just watched the video. 

As much as I enjoy seeing the possee get beat anytime, anywhere, that was pretty cool. Brock did not flinch on the final restarts, or slide job attemps and it paid off with his first. 

Nice job Brock.  The reports of the posse's demise have been greatly exagerated. Remember...the posse doesn't have a chance... Way down this year.

Lance didn't have the field covered he was just about to be passed, made a mistake (he's human) and stepped on it.  He never passed a car all night, on the other hand Z-man was terribly impressive.  Drivers made runs at him and he never blinked, it was good to see.  Up until then the Outlaws dominated and finishing 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th which is hardly shabby on a one ONLY groove track.  We all know if there is a middle or bottom you likely won't beat Donny.  It is rather humorous how the Posse fans complain about the track UNLESS one of their own wins, they (some of them only, the cheerleaders, we all know who they are) are still as blind as ever.  Anyone mention Gravel got put back on a restart that he was about to put on cruise control, very late in the race, of course not, lmao....

Right there with you. If you don't like someone, that's perfectly fine but If you wish for someone to crash or cheer when they do, I have zero time for you. That's absolutely bottom of the barrel. Every team out there spends a ton of money and works extremely hard to do what they do. We don't need fans like that.

Not a big Posse fan, but it's always nice to see a guy like Zeafoss win. I'll take underdog over Posse or outlaw any day.

Puckman, I think the vast majority of racefans silently or secretly cheer for the underdog, this guy drove like a BOSS last night, impressive is an understatement and he topped it off with a Great V/L interview with Brucey.  I hope he had lots of shirts for sale after the race...

The Outlaws won every time earlier this year and this place was fairly quiet 'cept for the dummy Outlaw cheerleaders, they can't match the Posse cheerleaders but they gave it a shot, nobody was listening tho'....

Obviously, not many people would have predicted Zearfoss to win an Outlaw race this year. But he has steadily moved up through the ranks of open cockpit racing. He had a 43-win year while in karts, then moved to 600 cc Mini Sprints at just 15 years old. He was dominant in the 600s,  then moved on to 358 Sprints in 2011. He moved to the 410s in 2014.

His first career 410 win came last August at Port Royal.

Lol....coming from MSPN

Too bad the completely legal restart was called back on Gravel, but that's racing. 

When LW retires from behind the wheel, what in the world will you ever do with your time since bashing him obviously consumes a vast majority of your it?  I mean, we get the point.....you don't like him....and that is quite alright.  We all have people we like, people we think are about half jackasses, and people we think are total assholes.  The difference is the majority of us don't seem to continuously fixate back to that subject in every single fucking post!!
