Gansen took advantage of a good
front row starting spot to lead all
30 laps of the VRA Sprint Car race
Saturday night May 7, and take his
first main event win of 2011. Gansen
drove a great race holding off pole
sitter Brian Camarillo, third place
finisher and current point leader
Steve Conrad and a hard charging
Greg Taylor who had to come from
last place after an early race
incident to finish fourth. Rounding
out the top five finishers was Brent
Camarillo who came from 9th to
finish fifth. The fact that Gansen
led from start to finish did not
diminish the fact that the race saw
some of he best competition all
season. Throughout the field of cars
racing was outstanding with drivers
passing each other with great moves
on every lap. There were 24 cars
signed into the pits Saturday so
three heats were run with wins going
to Greg Taylor in heat one, John
Nock in heat two and Josh Ford in
heat three. the 12 lap semi main
transferred eight cars to the
feature with the win going to Clark
Templeman III. Going into next weeks
event, Steve Conrad holds a 10 point
lead over Greg Taylor and a 155
point lead over Don Gansen in the
season point race.
In VRA Senior Sprint Car action,
point leader Rob Kershaw led a green
white checkered race from start to
finish. finishing second through
fifth were Richard McCormick, Clif
Warren, Ed Schwarz and Jesse Denome.
The win keeps Kershaw 210 points
ahead of nearest challenger Bruce
Douglass in the point race after 5
races. Two heat races were run with
wins going to Ed Schwarz in heat one
and Rob Kershaw in heat two.
Aaron Rodarte took the win and the
season point lead in winning the 20
lap IMCA Modified main event over a
field of ten cars. He passed race
leader Dennis Eckert on lap 18 and
went on to score the win over
Eckert, John Romero, Jack Parker and
Dave Phipps. Brad Prows who entered
the night's event on top of the
point race fell out early with
mechanical problems and falls to a 2
point deficit in the season point
race to Rodarte. Heat race wins,
Saturday night went to Rob Green and
Austin Rodarte.
VRA Dwarf Cars races in two
divisions Saturday night. In Senior
action, the main event win went to
Rick Lapka over point leader George
Calvo, Mike Neal, Keith Vondersaar
and Keith Koslov. Their heat race
