Doug Heveron Wins TBARA at Hialeah

by Marty Little

HIALEAH, Fla. - Veteran Doug Heveron took the lead from Stan Butler on lap 20 and went on to claim the 25 lap TBARA sprint car feature Saturday night at Hialeah Speedway.

Butler paced the 19 car field from his pole starting position while Heveron, who started 10th was slicing his way through traffic on the flat third-mile oval. Heveron moved to second on lap 10 with a pass of David Slawiak and took off after Butler who had built a sizeable margin. On lap 19 Heveron and Butler touched with the latter's mount spinning into the first turn concrete to end his night.

Heveron blasted away on the restart and was never challenged enroute to his fourth victory of the 2003 tour. Slawiak checkered second over Wayne Reutimann, Sr., Shane Butler and rookie John Gilbert, Jr.
Mike Orth led wire to wire to claim the 25 lap street stock headliner with a good drive over Tony Barreca, Bob Hogan, Jake Reedy and T.C. McElyea.

Mini stock ace S.C. Klinger padded his already sizeable point lead as he came out on top of a good battle with Tommy Styer to notch his 11th win of the season in his Toyota. Styer, Shawn Reiss, Eli Pollard and Steve Christenson completed the top five runners.

Don Morey scored his first cyclone victory in several years as he held off the late race challenges of Roger Bohannon. Morey led two different times in the 25 lap event, taking the top spot the final time on lap 17. Mark Bain, Billy Field and George Morales chased the lead duo to the checkers.

The always exciting School Bus Figure 8 has been added to action packed card for this coming Saturday night, August 30.
