 DRIVE FOR DYLAN HIGHLIGHTS BRIDGEPORT ACTION THIS WEEKEND

 

 

      The Drive for Dylan 50 headlines this weekend’s racing at the Bridgeport Speedway.

 

The Drive for Dylan 50 is a fifty lap Outlaw Stock race that is being held to celebrate the life of Dylan Henry Doerr.  Dylan passed away last November as the result of a tragic accident.  Dylan was only sixteen months old.  Dylan was the son of Bridgeport competitor, Jeramy Doerr and Shannon.

 

Dylan touched the lives of many during his short stay on earth.  He loved race cars and the sound of the engines would only increase his level of excitement.

 

His parent have taken his passion for racing and used it to promote the Drive for Dylan 50.  They have worked diligently along with Bridgeport Speedway management to honor Dylan with this unique event.  The fifty lap race will pay $2,500 to the winner with a total purse that is approaching $12,000.  There will be bonuses paid for leading laps and for leading at the half way mark.

 

There will be special attention paid to the young race fans with this event with plenty of prizes and give-aways for the kids.  There will also be special activities planned like face painting on the day of the event.

 

This race is sure to attract drivers from far and wide.  The Outlaw Stocks put on a very competitive feature race on a weekly basis and the added incentives for the Drive for Dylan should only serve to raise the level of competition.

 

The Spirit Dodge Big Block Modifieds will be featured in a doubleheader as they run their rained out feature from May 16th before the night’s action gets under way.  The Stewart Stainless Crate/Sportsman will also compete in a full program of qualifying and feature events.  The D.A.’s Auto Body & Repair Rookies will compete in their eight lap feature event, just two weeks before the 2015 Rookie Graduation.

 

Fans who arrive early will be by several Bridgeport competitors when the grandstand gates open at 5:30.  The drivers will be available to pose for pictures and sign autographs before heading back to the pit area to prepare for the night’s action.

 

As always, there is the moon bounce and giant slide for the kids.  The track mascot, the Bridgeport Bandit,  will be on hand and would welcome you to ride the Bandit Bus that makes frequent trips into the pit area where you can watch the drivers prepare for the night’s competition.  Or you can listen to the live entertainment in the large pavilion behind the main grandstand.

 

The Bridgeport Speedway provides concessions for the whole family – from mouth watering meals to some awesome flavors of Italian Ice or a refreshing cup of freshly squeezed lemonade.  Our novelty stand offers a full array of Bridgeport Speedway apparel and racing souvenirs as well as our own, Bridgeport Bullet – the official program of the Bridgeport Speedway.

 

Racing action on the quarter mile gets the weekend started on Friday night at 8pm as the Open Modifieds join the 270 & 600 Micro Sprints and 4 Cylinder Enduros .  This will be the third Open Modified competition on the quarter mile as the competitors prepare for the $10,000 to win Romp in the Swamp on Saturday, September 26th, sponsored by 811 Dig Safely.

MARTZ, JONES AND PALMAI ARE BIG WINNERS IN BRIDGEPORT ACTION

Kemery Wins for Fifth Time in Rookie Competition

 

 

 

After a lot of effort and sweat and overcoming adversity and being close on previous occasions, Sam Martz, CJ Jones and Steph Palmai picked up feature wins in their respective divisions during Saturday night action on the 5/8 mile Bridgeport Speedway.

 

It has been a frustrating season for the popular Martz of Whitehouse Station, NJ.  Martz and his Izzy Trucking & Rigging #3 have had to overcome weeks of mechanical issues.  Then two weeks earlier, Martz was running second and challenging for the lead with just one lap to go in the Big Block Modified feature when he had a right rear tire go.  But all that faded as Martz drove to his first win of the season over two time feature winner, Jamie Mills on Saturday night.

 

Scott Ambruster and Stan Frankenfield, Jr. led the field to the start with Ambruster jumping into the lead.  Frankenfield held on to the runner-up spot until Martz made his way into contention from his fifth place start.  Martz took over second on lap seven and then got by Ambruster to take the lead on the next circuit.

 

After starting in fourteenth, Jamie Mills raced his way into the top five, running in third behind Martz and David Hunt throughout the middle of the race.  Mills took over second on lap eighteen and began to track down Martz but this race belonged to Sam Martz as he led the way to the checkered flag.  Mills, Hunt with his best finish to date, Ryan Anderson and Delaware invader, Jordan Watson trailed Martz at the line.  Watson came from deep in the field to collect a top five finish.

 

After many second place runs, CJ Jones put the Overhead Door #0 in Victory Lane for the Stewart Stainless Crate/Sportsman feature for the first time since the start of the 2015 track points.  This feature event saw three different leaders.  Dave Damiano led the first eight laps before Pat Wall took over on lap nine.  Wall led through lap twelve before Jones took over on the next circuit.  Jones raced to the win followed by Wall, Damiano, last weeks two race winner, Jim Britt and Jeremy Harrington.

 

With just two races remaining before Rookie graduation, Steve Kemery picked up win number five in the D.A.’s Auto Body & Repair Rookie feature event, winning over Bryan Olsen and Tom Holding.

 

For the first time in her career, Steph Palmai picked up the win in the Hilborn TSRS Sprint Car Feature event.  The win gave Palmai an Ace in the Bethman Auto Center/Bruce’s Speed Shop/Thayer Performance Poker Series for the TSRS Sprint car.

 

Palmai led from the green to the checkered, leading every lap of the twenty lap main event but not without the pressure of multi-time TSRS Champion, Mike Haggenbottom in hot pursuit.  Haggenbottom moved up to second on lap six but was unable to challenge Palmai as she drove to her first sprint car victory.  Haggenbottom finished second followed by Jeff Geiges, John Barnett and Tim Tanner, Jr.

 

The Drive for Dylan 50 highlights Bridgeport Speedway action next weekend.  The quarter mile racing gets underway on Friday night at 8pm as the 270 and 600 Micros, Open Mods and 4 Cylinder Enduros get the weekend started.  On Saturday night, the Drive for Dylan 50 highlights a full night of racing as the Big Block Modifieds will compete in a full racing program plus their make-up feature from May 16th along with the Crate/Sportsman and Rookie divisions.

REPEAT WINNERS ALL AROUND AT BRIDGEPORT

 

 

Four different drivers were repeat winners at the Bridgeport Speedway on Saturday night but they all arrived in Victory Lane after some very different circumstances.

 

Jamie Mills put the Blue Hen Special in Victory Lane for the second time this season after winning the drag race with Wade Hendrickson to the checkered flag in the Spirit Dodge Big Block Modified feature event.  Mills win came with the narrowest of margins of the night.

 

After many top five finishes this season, Jim Britt picked up his first and second wins of the season as he collected both the May 16th held over event and the regular feature in the Stewart Stainless Crate/Sportsman action.

 

Jeramy Doerr picked up three consecutive wins in the PennCo Tech Outlaw Stocks to start the 2015 season and returned to Victory Lane with win number four on Saturday night.  D.A. Auto Body & Repair Rookie, Steve Kemery also earned his fourth win of the season in Rookie competition.

 

The month of May ended the same way it began for Big Block Modified driver, Jamie Mills – with a feature win at the end of the night but the night looked like it belonged to the Flying Farmer, Wade Hendrickson, until the final lap of the twenty-five lap main event.

 

Scott Ambruster led the first lap with Hendrickson taking over on the second circuit.  Bob Sarkisian moved up to second with Hendrickson leading, Sarkisian, Ron Roberts, Ambruster and Jack Swain with five complete.  Swain moved up to fourth as Ryan Watt fought his way into the top five on lap eleven.

 

Hendrickson maintained the top spot through several restarts as Watt moved up to fourth before a right rear flat had him headed to the pits just before the half way mark.  Sam Martz moved up to third on the subsequent restart with Mills and Sarkisian right behind.  Martz took over second on the next restart for the disabled car of Jesse Hill.

 

Martz found the outside to his liking as he pressured Hendrickson for the lead.  Mills looked to the inside of Martz just before five to go but Martz was having none of it as he pursued the leader.  Hendrickson led Martz, Mills, Laubach and Swain with five to go.  Laubach had moved up to third on lap twenty-one but his efforts were negated by a caution flag.

 

With Mills pressuring, Martz took his race to the outside as the race for the lead became a three way battle between Hendrickson, Martz and Mills.  With just one lap to go, Martz had a right rear tire blow, bringing out the caution one more time and setting up a one lap shootout to the checkered flag.

 

Now Hendrickson had Mills on his heals as they lined up for the single file restart.  Mills pulled even with Hendrickson as they raced out of turn two for the final time but Hendrickson pulled ahead as they raced down the backstretch.  Coming to the line it was anyone’s race with Mills pulling to about a half car length advantage at the checkered flag.  It was Mills for the win over Hendrickson, Laubach, Swain and Richie Pratt, Jr.

 

Jim Britt made his return to the Bridgeport season last season, his last feature win at Bridgeport coming during the 2003 season.  He added two more to the win column after taking both the rained out feature event from May 16th as well as the regular Stewart Stainless Crate/Sportsman feature on Saturday night.

 

Britt’s wins came on two totally different track surfaces.  With the rained out feature the first event on the Saturday night schedule, Britt took the lead from Scott Hulmes before the five lap mark and led the distance to the checkered over CJ Jones, Jeremy Harrington, Bob Lilick and Gary Hieber.

 

In the nightcap, it was Nick Nicotra who led the first lap before 2014 Rookie Champion, Matthew Peck took over on lap two.  Peck led for six circuits until Britt made the pass for the lead on lap eight.  Britt raced ahead of the field while Peck held off the challenges of Gary Hieber for second.  Britt again picked up the win over Peck, Hieber, Justin Lilick and Jeremy Harrington.  Britt, Hieber and Harrington finished in the top five in both feature events.

 

Jeramy Doerr was a mad on a mission as he took the lead on the first lap and drove to the win in the PennCo Tech Outlaw Stocks without a challenge, picking up his fourth win of the season.  The action was all about the runner-up spot that was finally secured by Tom Wills, Sr. after a battle with Jeff Dirkes and Tom Wills, Jr.  Wills, Jr. finished third followed by Dirkes and Joe Meron.

 

After a first lap collision between Bryan Olsen and Roger Gaskill, it was all Steven Kemery in the D.A.’s Auto Body & Repair Rookie feature.  Kemery captured his fourth win of the season with Tom Holding taking second followed by Bryan Olsen.

 

Racing action resumes next weekend with the quarter mile on Friday night with 270cc & 600cc Micro Sprints and 8 Cylinder Enduros.  Race time is 8pm.  The TSRS Sprints return on Saturday with the Big Block Modifieds, Crate/Sportsman, Outlaw Stocks and Rookies with racing getting underway at 7pm.

LAUBACH, KRESSLEY & WILLS, SR ARE ACES IN BRIDGEPORT POKER SERIES

     Rick Laubach has always said that he likes more laps in the Bridgeport Big Block Modified feature events and he proved his point by picking up the win in the forty lap, All in at the Port – the second hand in the 2015 Poker Series.  It’s a pair of Aces for Brett Kressley as he picked up his second Poker Series win in the Crate/Sportsman division.  Tom Wills, Sr. made it win number three on the 2015 season as led the field of Outlaw Stocks to the checkered flag and Roger Gaskill became the fourth different winner in the Rookie Division as he picked up his first win of the season. 

     A game of musical chairs with some willing young fans determined the starting line-up for the Spirit Dodge Big Block Modifieds that resulted in Duane Howard and David Hunt getting the call to lead the starting line-up to the green flag.  It was Sammy Piazza who raced from his third place starting spot to take the lead on the start.  Piazza set a torrid pace and pulled away from the field as Howard ran second for the first two laps before Ryan Watt took over on lap three after racing from his seventh place start. 

    Piazza led through lap twenty-four when he headed to the pits for a tire change.  Watt took over at that point and he, too, distanced himself from the competition as Howard, Ryan Anderson, Jamie Mills and Laubach made up the top five in running order. 

    Laubach began to pick his way through the top five during the final ten laps.  He had just raced his way into second on lap thirty-four when Watt drew a caution and headed to the pits for some fresh rubber.  It all went Laubach’s way as the 2014 Poker Champion raced to the checkered flag for his third Bridgeport win of the season.  Howard finished second in Glenn Hynneman’s #126 with Jamie Mills running third at the checkered.  Ryan Anderson had another strong Poker Series outing as his fourth place finish earned him a pair of Jacks.  Wade Hendrickson raced the C&S Equipment #6 to a top five finish.

     Rookie driver, Steven Kemery took the lead from his pole position start in the Stewart Stainless Crate/Sportsman feature event and led the first four laps of the twenty-five lap main event.  Orefield, PA driver, Brett Kressley took over on lap five and picked up where he left off on his last visit to the Bridgeport Speedway.  Jim Britt made an inside move to challenge Kressley but fell short as Kressley collected his second Poker Series win of the season for a pair of Aces.  Britt finished second with Kemery in third for the best finish by a rookie so far this season.  Mike Hendershot finished fourth with Brad Roberts rounding out the top five at the checkered.

     Tom Wills, Sr. continued his winning ways as he picked up his second win in the PennCo Tech Outlaw Stocks.  Scott Dugan led the first four laps of the twenty lap feature event before Wills, Sr. took over on lap five.  Wills, Sr. led Ron Frees, Dugan, Brian Ludwig and Tom Wills, Jr. to the checkered flag to collect his first Ace of the Poker Series.  Frees’ second place run earned his a second King for a pair in just the second hand. 

     Roger Gaskill became the fourth different winner in the D.A.’s Auto Body and Repair Rookie division as he took the lead from Bryan Olsen on the first lap.  Gaskill led all the way to the checkered as Olsen finished second, followed by Kemery, JR Burritt and Tom Holding.

IT’S ALL IN AT THE PORT!

Poker Series Hand #2 on Memorial Day Weekend

       Cut the deck and deal out the cards!  It’s time for the second hand of the 2015 Poker Series at the Bridgeport Speedway!  It’s “All in at the Port” for hand #2 on Sunday, May 24th with racing getting underway at 7pm. 

     Ryan Godown, Brett Kressley and Jeramy Doerr each collected an ace for their respective wins during the first hand of the Poker Series during the Bridgeport Speedway season opener back in March.  While both Kressley and Doerr led their feature events from lap two, Godown had just raced his way into second with Bill Hewlett’s #901 when leader, Stewart Friesen headed to the pits for a tire change.  Godown drove the remaining distance to take the win over defending 2014 Poker Series Champion, Rick Laubach, Dominick Buffalino, Ryan Anderson and Richie Pratt, Jr.   History has shown that’s its not always the aces that win in the end but the most consistent performance!

     Beginning with Hand #2, the Bridgeport Speedway will adopt the system used by many other racing series.  A $10 entry fee will be charged for each car entered in the event in the Big Block Modifieds, Crate/Sportsman and Outlaw Stocks with the entry fee going directly to the point fund to be awarded at season’s end. 

     Fans who arrive early will be able to meet drivers, Ryan Godown, Mike Hendershot and Billy Wroble.  There will be music provided by Whiskey Glen for your listening pleasure throughout the night.  As always, there is the moon bounce and giant slide for the kids.  The Bridgeport Bandit will be on hand and would welcome you to ride the Bandit Bus that makes frequent trips into the pit area where you can watch the drivers prepare for the night’s competition. 

     The Bridgeport Speedway provides concessions for the whole family – from mouth watering meals to some awesome flavors of Italian Ice or a refreshing cup of freshly squeezed lemonade.  Our novelty stand offers a full array of Bridgeport Speedway apparel and racing souvenirs as well as our own, Bridgeport Bullet – the official program of the Bridgeport Speedway.

Iles, LaMothe, Reinhardt and King take Bridgeport Checkered

 

     Mike Iles won the second round of the “Romp in the Swamp” 811 Dig Safely Open-Comp Modifieds on the Bridgeport Speedway quarter mile.  Sam LaMothe and Tyler Reinhardt won their first features of 2015 in the wingless 600cc Micro Sprints and 270cc Micro Sprints and Joe King, Jr. remain undefeated in the ServPro Four Cylinder Enduro division.

Iles grabbed the lead from Ryan Forte and easily won the 25-lap Modified feature event.  Forte led the opening three laps of the contest before Iles took command.  John Cornell finished third at the checkered flag followed by Richie Pratt, Jr. and Jimmy Horton.

LaMothe took the lead from his outside front row starting position from Rob Vivona on the opening lap.  Bill Thomas and Andrew Locuson passed Vivona for second and third when he drove off the lip of the backstretch on lap five.  Lee Nardelli passed Mike Fillbrunn for fifth just passed the halfway point.  LaMothe led all 20-laps of the feature to record his first win.  Vivona recovered from his excursion to finish second followed by Thomas, Nardelli and Andrew Locuson.

Tyler Reinhardt broke his early season drought by winning the 20-lap feature event for the 270cc Micro Sprints.  Reinhardt jumped out to the lead from his outside front row starting position but a caution on lap 9 caught the field up to his bumper.  On the restart, sophomore driver Sean Huesser took the lead away from Reinhardt.  Huesser began to pull away from Reinhardt over the next few laps then Reinhardt got back into rhythm and caught up and passed Huesser for the win.  Huesser held onto second with Lee Reinhardt, Dana LaMothe and Rich Keller completing the top five.
