PETALUMA, CA – July 18
By Rick Faeth
Petaluma Speedway’s annual Open Wheel Madness Night featuring the Joe Hunt Wingless Sprints vs Pit Stop USA Spec Sprints, BCRA-USAC Midgets, Midget Lites, and Santa Rosa Auto Body 600’s saw over 90 cars in the congested pit area and a brimming full grandstand Saturday Night. Warm temps and gusts led to a dry slick adobe surface that saw Colton Slack earn fast time honors with a 14.209 over the field of 25 carbureted fire-breathers. Eight lap heat races were nabbed by Shane Myhre, Austin Liggett, and Terry Schank Jr. Myhre also copped the 6-lap dash to earn the pole for the 25-lap feature, with Jason McIntosh notching the semi-main. At the drop of the green it was Joe Stornetta getting the jump on Myhre. Lap one saw Schank exit the track with a flat, then return to join the tail of the field. Several spins and shunts slowed the pace as Stornetta looked strong over Myhre, Jim Christian, Klint Simpson, and Jonathon Henry. Lap 18 saw Stornetta retire with a suspension part failure as simultaneously Schank who stormed through the field entered the top five. Red flags for Bill Cornwell, McIntosh, and Nick DeCarlo interrupted the later stages as Myhre led through 21 circuits. On a lap 22 restart Schank used his patented low dive into turn one and emerged with the lead. Three laps later it was the defending track champion parking it on the front stretch over Henry, Myhre with rapidly improving youngsters John Clark and Shayna Sylvia rounding out the top five.

Petaluma Speedway returns to action this Saturday Night, July 25th featuring the Pit Stop USA Shootout round #2 featuring Winged 360’s and Spec Sprints. Also on tap are the Lumberjack Restaurant Super Stocks, Larsen Racing Products Dwarfs, and the Jake’s Performance Hobbies Mini Stocks.
