On
Sunday, Jimmy Horton added another chapter to Bridgeport's history when
he picked up the win in the All American 40 event for the Spirit Auto
Center Big Block Modifieds on a night of racing sponsored by Arbor
Material Handlers. Arbor
Material Handlers is an end-to-end warehouse solutions provider
offering Raymond forklifts, warehouse layout and design, telematics,
labor management and more to businesses throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. Horton
became one of the elite drivers to have won a race on all three
Bridgeport tracks - the 5/8th, the Spirit Speedway quarter mile and now
on the Design for Vision/Sunglass Central 3/8th mile. Ryan
Krachun led the first five laps of feature event before Billy Pauch
used a run on the outside to take the lead on a lap six restart. Horton
had moved up to third from his tenth place start when the caution waved
for the first time on lap ten. Pauch would draw the second lap ten
caution when he slowed on the track. After a quick trip to the pits,
Pauch returned to the rear of the field but then exited the track before
completing another lap. It was Horton who led the way on the next
restart and then drove away from the field, stretching his lead to
nearly half of a lap when he took the checkered flag at the end of forty
laps. Krachun had a strong outing to finish
second with Wade Hendrickson taking third after starting fourteenth with
the Pat Michael owned No. 51m. Billy Pauch, Jr. finished fourth with a
late race pass by fifth place finisher, Scott Ambruster. Danny Bouc, Brett Kressley, Richie Pratt, Jr., Dominick Buffalino and Jim Britt rounded out the top ten. Eric
Kormann raced to his second win in eight days in the South Jersey
Overhead Door 602 Crate Sportsman feature event. After drawing the
pole, Kormann led everyone of the twenty laps, holding off a determined
Jim Gallagher, Jr. who added another top three finish to his record.
Wayne Weaver challenged Gallagher on several occasions but had to settle
for third followed by Brad Roberts and Tom Princiotta. Matt Peck, Steve Kemery, Steve Davis, Rich Wegner, Jr. and Tom Moore, Jr. rounded out the top ten. Joe Biasi picked up his second win of the weekend as he led the USAC East Coast Wingless Sprint Cars to the checkered flag. Chandler
Leiby raced within striking distance of Biasi throughout the twenty
five lap main event but was never able to mount a challenge for the
lead. Tim Buckwalter finished third over Eddie Strada and point leader,
Steve Drevicki. The 8 Cylinder Enduro
competitors made their first appearance on the Design for
Vision/Sunglass Central 3/8 mile track and found it to their liking.
Scott Riggleman led every one of the twenty-five laps for the win over
Lee Allen whose late race challenge gave him a second place finish over
Derek Jones. Bridgeport
action returns to the Design for Vision/Sunglass Central track next
Saturday night with two features for the Big Block Modifieds in addition
to the 602 Crate Sportsman, MASS 305 Sprint cars, 8 Cylinder Enduros
