IT'S TIME TO RACE!!

April 11, 2005 FSCR Jefferson Holds off Moore for OWM Win By Rick Anges Bradenton, Fl. The field of 20 high powered Q Auto & Injury Attorney Open Wheel modifieds roared out onto the track for qualifying for the night’s 100-lap feature event. The "Rocketman" Wayne Jefferson edged out Timmy Moore for the fast time. Jefferson ran a 15.13 to Moore who ran a 15.15. The roll of the die sent Jefferson and Moore to the middle of the field when the field was inverted five rows. This put Cheat Senogossoff and Billy"the Kid" Mowery on the front row. Mowery lead the field out of turn two after the drop of the green with Senogossoff hot on his tail. The pack was tight behind them. Jefferson, Moore and Moff were all maneuvering through the field trying to get to the front. An early caution came out for Senogossoff going around in turn four. That would be one several spins for the driver of the 61 who after the race said, ""The right rear just wouldn’t hook up." It wasn’t long before Moff and the Rocketman came through and were running first and second respectively. Moff was on the back bumper of leader Mowery lap after lap, trying high and low for the lead. Moff made his move coming out four trying to go low when Mowery slammed the door. This forced Moff to get on the brakes sending him down on the apron of the race track and as he tried to gather it back up in turn one the nose of his car caught the tail of Jefferson who went around in a cloud of smoke. Jefferson retained his spot on the track with Moff being sent to the rear. Moff was caught up in a late race altercation, loosing a tire as he slammed the front stretch wall giving him a disappointing 13th place finish. The final ten laps saw the top three cars, Jefferson, Moore and Mowery all battling lap after lap. Jefferson who had spun earlier in the race had his hands full with Moore right on his back bumper right until the end. The crowd was on their feet as Jefferson edged Moore out to take the win with Mowery right in the fight. Jefferson claimed the $2,000 prize money, with Moore taking second. "The car was great tonight I just couldn’t get around the 1 car," said Timmy Moore. Mowery came across in third, fourth was Sean McLaughlin and in fifth "Mopar Missile" Pat Nanney. T.B.A.R.A. Winged Sprints David Steele was going for three wins in row at the "High Banks". But it was David Slawiack who took the win in the Sprint feature holding off Bo Hartley in second with Steele finishing third. International Contractors Street Stocks Aaron Williams used the outside groove and drove it to the win in the Street Stock feature, Duane Best used that same groove to get by brother Jimmie late the race for second, third was Jimmie Best, fourth was Greg Krom and David Williamson fifth. Bombers John Stewart got the monkey off his back and powered to the Bomber feature win, Jay King followed across in second, Dave Davis took third, fourth was Jesse Adair and in fifth Pete Barr. NAPA Auto Parts Cowboy Caddies Matt Wildrick took his first feature win ever in the Cowboy Caddies edging out his Father Rich Wildrick for the checkers. In an emotional winners circle interview a choked up Widlrick said" I’m really proud to see him take this win. Third was Roger Swinton, fourth was Shannon Query and in fifth Kenny Gibson.
