BELLINGER HOLDS OFF THE DOCTOR IN HIS FIRST CAREER WIN AT CCFS

WEEDSPORT, NY-Rob Bellinger won a thriller in the 35 lap DIRTcar big block Modified feature as the youngster held off Danny Johnson at the finish. The win was a career first for Bellinger at Cayuga County Fair Speedway, who took the lead on lap 21 from Australian Pete Britten. Britten had led from lap five and had his best run of the 2010 season to this point. The top five began to develop from lap ten until the yellow flew on lap 27. Plenty of exciting side by side action and lapped traffic gave the front runners a real challenge. In some of the best racing to this point in the 2010 season, Bellinger held off a determined Danny Johnson at the finish line. Third was Matt Sheppard followed by Jimmy Phelps and Britten.

Ricky Newton picked up his third win of the 2010 season at the Cayuga County Fair Speedway in the 25 lap DIRTcar Sportsman feature. Newton led the entire 25 lap distance and enduring a lap 24 caution period in which the field was bunch together for the restart. Newton would survive through the remainder of the event. The real race of the feature was for second place as Tim Schneider and Jeremy Pitcher fought tooth and nail right up to the finish line with Schneider holding on to the runner-up position. Fourth was Justin Wright while Tom Juhl finished fifth.

Andy Fisk won his second DIRTcar Stock Car feature of the 2010 season at CCFS, but it wasn’t easy as Chris Fisher was inside of Fisk as the two drivers went down for the checkered flag in what was easily one of the more exciting races of the night. Fisk led from the drop of the green, never giving up his lead. Finishing third was Mike Rasbeck followed by current point leader Mike Welch and Dan Hoffman Jr.

In the Battlekarz feature Bob Edwards had his first victory of the season Sunday night with Chris Bonoffski second. Nick Werner, Rich Sharpsteen II and Chad Ayers round out the top five. A 20 lap battle in the Original Pizza Logs 600 Micro Sprints saw Charlie Donk and Tyler Walker in a real dogfight right up to the checkered flag with Donk claiming the victory. Darryl Ruggles was third while Jim Radney was fourth and Alysha Ruggles fifth.

The final showdown of the regular season will take place next Sunday night for the Super DIRTcar Series drivers in the Labor Day 100 at Cayuga County Fair Speedway including the Sportsman, Stock Cars and Battlekarz as they partake in double point championship night. This will be a huge opportunity to see the series best in Brett Hearn, Billy Decker and Ryan Phelps while you wait to see if Jimmy Phelps can take over Matt Sheppard for the track championship.

The final night of Labor Day weekend action takes place Monday at Rolling Wheels Raceway. Fans will be given the opportunity to save $2 off their general admission ticket when they bring a ticket stub from any local track. Racing action will feature the 60-lap $4,000-to-win Big Block Modifieds plus the DIRTcar Sportsman and Stock Cars in the Robert N. Petrocci Memorial event.

TONY STEWART RACES AT CAYUGA COUNTY FAIR SPEEDWAY AS MOMENTIUM BUILDS FOR ALL-STAR WEEKEND

Jul 13th

Posted by The Speedster in Racers

WEEDSPORT, NY- Cayuga County Fair Speedway was the place to be Sunday night; at least NASCAR Star Tony Stewart thought so. Sunday afternoon the DIRTcar office got a phone call a race promoter could only hope to receive. Tony Stewart was going to compete in Sundays Empire Super Sprint race.  Stewart joined his fellow teammate Jessica Zemken as they battled all the drivers at the ESS “Wings and Warriors” night.

Sunday’s visit from the ESS Sprint series was a one of many firsts. It was the first time in five years that the series has been back to Cayuga County Fair Speedway; the first time star Tony Stewart has joined the track and the first time during the 2010 season that Bryan Howland, Austin Ely, Mike Mahaney, and Jared Fink have competed.

When the news broke that Stewart was racing, fans lined up early to get their reserved seat for this special appearance. Those same fans were also privileged to have the opportunity to meet ESS 2009 champion Justin Barger and Tony Stewart’s teammate Jessica Zemken. Both drivers were on hand to sign autographs for the anxious crowd as they made their way into the CCFS.

When the green flag dropped and action got underway Jessica Zemken was in the right place at the right time, as she has been for three out of the last four races. Jessica found her way back into victory lane, winning the 25 lap Empire Super Sprints feature. Zemken was solidly in second place in the last half of the event as Steve Poirier was clearly the fastest driver on the track. On lap 20, Poirier came off turn four with a blown motor and took his winged sprinter to the infield. Zemken inherited the lead and kept a safe distance between her and Jason Barney. After a lap 22 caution allowing Barney to pull right behind her, Jessica pulled away to win with Barney taking second. Zemken car owner and NASCAR Sprint Cup Series star Tony Stewart finished third. Fourth was Justin Barger and fifth place was Brian Howland. The same stars will return July 23 and 24 at Rolling Wheels Raceway for The Fast Track 360 Sprint Car Summer Shootout.

Dave Marcuccilli has been extremely fast on the Cayuga County Fair Speedway three eighths mile oval and won for the second time in three days. Marcuccilli had better than a five second lead over second place finisher John Juhl, who was an early leader of the event. Third was Fran Hilton followed by Steve Gray, who took over the CCFS DIRTcar Sportsman points lead. Fifth was Ben Wheeler.

A late race battle in the 20 lap Original Pizza Logs Micro Sprints saw Nick Cooper and Darryl Ruggles in a real dogfight right up to the checkered flag with Cooper winning for the first time in 2010 at CCFS. Ruggles actually went ahead of Cooper on lap 18 as the two competitors were side by side coming off turn four. Cooper would soon get the lead back and keep it for the remainder of the race. Third was DIRTcar big block Modified competitor Charlie Donk while Jim Radney was fourth and A. J. Bogino was fifth.

In the 15 lap BattleKarz feature, Nick Werner was the winner. Finishing second was Les Baker followed by Jerry Royce. Fourth was James Werner while Bill Werner finished fifth.

CCFS NOTES: Once again, Alysha Ruggles was performing double duty at CCFS. In addition to her chores as Miss Cayuga County Fair Speedway, she also competed in the 20 lap Original Pizza Logs Micro Sprint feature, where she finished seventh…The Cayuga County Fair Speedway point leaders are as follows. Modifieds-Matt Sheppard, Sportsman-Steve Gray, Stock Cars-Chris Fisher and BattleKarz-Nick Werner…There was certainly a buzz in the air as the second annual All-Star Weekend gets underway this Thursday at Brewerton Speedway…Better than 90 cars filled the pit area on another beautiful night of racing.

Summer racing excitement will hit its peak next week at the Cayuga County Fair Speedway during the second annual All-Star Weekend. The speedway will come to life Friday and Saturday with the heart-pounding, high-powered, pedal-mashing entertainment, with the Big-Block Modified winners on Saturday sharing $20,000 from the record posted purse of over $100,000.

Race fans have until Wednesday July 14 to take advantage of the best racing deal of the summer. Fans can purchase a two-day reserved ticket for All-Star Weekend for only $39. After Wednesday tickets will be available but only as individual day tickets. Friday tickets are $25 and Saturday $35. That’s a savings of $21 to purchase your weekend tickets by Wednesday July 14. Tickets can be purchased at www.dirtcar.com/tickets or by calling the DIRTcar Northeast office at 315-834-6606.
