For the first time this
season our car count was down as only fourteen cars were on hand. A thank you
to all who made it to the track. Several cars were down with mechanical issues
and I heard that the Medina race team was on vacation, and out of the state.
The number four car of Gary Kopp had contact with another car in the heat race
and hit the wall and suffered major damage to his car. He may be down for a
while. Chris Eggleston turned in the quick time with a 14.146, and went on to win the trophy dash and twenty five lap feature. Chris followed Wayne Barlock for many laps after getting hung up in traffic and closed in on him. Barlock led the feature for many laps, but could not hold back Eggleston who cleared traffic and eventually ran Barlock down. Chris made a clean pass and got by in the closing laps. Kyle Clegg and Corey Seip finished in the third and fourth positions and Pete Dellarco got around AJ Canada on the last lap to take fifth position. PPIR schedules three Legend dates. Received word in the Pits
last night from Larry Griffith that there will be three racing dates added to
the local Legends area. The race will be sanctioned this week as the paper work
has been forwarded to INEX and should be in place. As mentioned in an earlier
Newsletter, there will be National points for these races, but no RMMLRA points
as the schedule had been made out before these races were scheduled. Beginning
June 18, PPIR will host these three oval races on the quarter mile track. For
the racer, that puts three back to back dates for those who want to get more
races in on their summer schedule. Plan to race on Friday and stay over night
in Pueblo and race at I-25 the following day. What more could you ask for. Trophy Dash 1. Eggleston 2. Clegg 3. Barlock 4. Ray 5. Dellarco 6. C. Seip
