STEVE OWINGS ENDS RUN OF BAD LUCK WITH SECOND WIN OF THE YEAR IN TRAIL-WAY 358 SPRINTS

HANOVER, PA , 6/8/12 – Early season winner Steve Owings got the monkey off his back Friday night, claiming his second win of the year in the 358 sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.
“We’ve been running so bad here lately that we started on the front row,” said Owings upon exiting his Valentine Motorsports/Westminster Transmission #35 in victory lane, “But it was nice to start up front.  Starting position was everything.”
Owings started second when Rick Horn dropped into the infield while cars were lining up for the feature, took the lead from polesitter Jordan Givler at the start, and led every lap.  Givler, who ran the race of his life, ran second the entire way, holding off defending champ and seventh-starting Jeff Rohrbaugh over the final ten laps.
“You’re always racing with somebody here, and that’s why I love it!” continued Owings, “They work hard to make the track racey for everyone, and that’s why I love racing here.”
Joe Trone, Jr. and Mike Bittinger waged a battle of their own over the second half of the race, and finished fourth and fifth.
Sixth through tenth were Austin Hogue, Kyle Moody, Keith Prutzman, Ryan Wilson, and Randy Whisler.
Heats for the 23 “358” Sprints were won by Givler, Owings, and Wilson.

Shultz Earns Sprint Car Victory In A Thriller At The Half Mile

SELINSGROVE, Pa. -- Saturday night’s 358 sprint car feature at Selinsgrove Speedway could best be described as a war on wheels at the front of the pack between third-place starter Phil Walter of McClure, sixth-place starter Eric Tomecek of Abbottstown, and seventh-place starter Jason Shultz of Carlisle.

At the finish, it was Shultz who emerged the victor in the thrilling 25-lap main event for the second time this season driving the Mach 1 Chassis No. 2. 

 Selinsgrove Speedway will present a four division show of 358 sprint cars, late models, pro stocks, and roadrunners at 7 p.m. Saturday, June 9, sponsored by Paul Stine Chevrolet. The late model feature will be a 30-lap championship event paying $2,500 to win and $250 to start.

On the start of the sprint car feature, polesitter Joel VanBuskirk and 20th-place starter Bob Beidleman collided in turn three. For the restart, third-place starter Phil Walter joined Charlie Anderson on the front row and pulled into the early lead.

Walter was chased by sixth-place starter Eric Tomecek at the onset, while fifth-place starter Duane Mausteller, seventh-place starter Jason Shultz, and eighth-place starter Derek Locke were in close pursuit.

On a lap five restart, a wheel-to-wheel duel unfolded for the lead between Walter and Tomecek. For the next three laps, Walter and Tomecek see-sawed for the lead position. Meanwhile, Shultz advanced to third and made it a close three-car battle at the front the pack.

On a lap 10 restart, Tomecek secured the lead and Shultz took over the second position. On the 12th circuit, Shultz made the winning pass using the inside lane in turn four. By lap 17, however, 10th-place starter Pat Cannon began to show a lot of speed and raced into the runner up position.

Cannon reeled in Shultz in lapped traffic but could not offer a challenge for the lead. At the checkered flag, Shultz was victorious by .44 of a second over Cannon, Tomecek, 12th-place starter Cody Keller, and Walter.

Mike Bittinger becomes seventh winner in seven races in “358” sprints

Third-starting Austin Hogue drove under Findley for second exiting turn two following a tenth-lap restart to finish second, with Todd Rittenhouse, Jr. Findley, and Niki Young completing the top five. Sixth through tenth were Jeff Rohrbaugh, points leader Tim Wagaman, Tyler Ross, Jay Galloway, and Dale Hammaker.
