Competition becomes more intense as drivers enter Race # 3 in the ‘Chase for the Buy & Sell Cup’.

Thunder Division Heat Races were won by newcomer Matt Turner of Hearts Delight, and Brad Sheppard from Harbour Grace.

The Feature Race saw Sheppard return and appeared to be well on his way to another win. Sheppard took the lead on lap one and looked like he was un-stoppable. At the mid way point he was out in from and pulling away from the field. The race for second was between #73 of Art Goodyear, #22 of Peter Hiscock and #74 of Harnum Jackson but after the midway point it was the #73 of Goodyear taking control of second place. Steven Peach in the #86 who had been working his way through the field made a pass on Harnum Jackson to take over third on lap 13. Tuner follow Peach to take fourth place. The running order remained this way for another four laps. Sheppard had now led 18 laps when his car appeared to be losing power. Art Goodyear who had been in second took over the first place spot for the remaining two laps. At the line it was Goodyear, Peach, Turner, Furlong with Sheppard rounding out the top five.

Street Lightning Heat Races were won by Jason Neville from St. John’s and Paddy Murphy of Foxtrap.

The Feature had a pile-up in turn one on the first lap which had regular season champion Jason Neville forced to pit. The defending cup champion in car #26 and the #50 of Royal crashed into the tire barrier in turn 2 which forced Royal to the pits unable to continue. Petten in the #26 took over the lead for the next two laps. Jason Neville and Lloyd Traverse were side by side until Neville took over the lead on lap three and started to separate himself from the field. The race for second was between Traverse, Guest#24 and Murphy in #127. Guest pulled ahead on lap 5 and move away from #68 and #127. The race for third between #68 and #127 saw Murphy in #127 hold off the #68 of Traverse who appeared to exercise caution in his pursuit of Cup Points. David Atkinson in the #10 rounded out the top five.

The Super Stock Heat race was won by Dennis Weir with Justin Robson in #58 a close second and Walsh in #99 taking third.

The Feature Race saw Dennis Weir with a completely rebuilt and painted #59. Weir was involved in a major crash in the early going last week which forced him to the pits with lots of damage. Weir was firmly in control in the early going on a slick track. It appeared that the handling went away

which aloud Cyril Robson in the #58 to move around Weir. The Ford of Robson appeared to have an edge on the slick surface as he held on for the win.

Walsh brought out a caution on lap four when he broke a side axle on the right rear. David Bishop moved around Weir on lap 17 and picked up second place at the line. Weir got third and Josh Collins who seemed to have more than his share of troubles picked up fourth. Wayne Walsh rounded out the top five.

Stock Car Drivers turn out in record numbers for the ‘Chase for the Buy & Sell Cup’.

Thunder Division Heat Races were won by Fraser Petten from North River, Jordie White, of Pouch Cove and Brian Furlong, The Goulds. The Feature Race resembled a Demolition Derby in the early going. It took five re-starts before a complete lap was entered on the record by this time over half the starting field were in the pits being worked on. When the banging and smashing ended it was #80 Brad Sheppard who had started in the fifteen spot was able to lead the first lap, Peter Hiscock was in second and rookie Robert Legge in third.

The Super Stock Heat races were won by #59 Dennis Weir of CBS and #58 Cyril Robson from Foxtrap. The Feature Race first lap crash fill event had lots of bent and torn metal. It appeared that most of the cars on the track made contact with each other or the retaining wall. When the spinning stopped and the dust settled it was Dennis Weir into the wall with lots of damage to his #59. Weir had to be towed to the pits with major damage, he was unable to get the car repaired and back in the race. On the re-start it was Mr. Determination moving the #156 into the lead while being trailed by David Bishop in #19. Cyril Robson in #58 who had won last week’s Feature started in the rear and was moving his way through the field. Robson got by Season Champion #99 and was trying to run down the Leader Collins. Meanwhile a former Track champion Shane Verge in the Pink #29 who had retired after he won the Championship over five years ago was attempting a ‘come back’. Verge started in the back and appeared to still have all the right moves until a calliper locked up on his car, he made contact with the tire wall and rolled over ending up in turn three on his roof. The St. John Ambulance was quickly on the scene and determine the driver was ok but the car was unable to continue. When racing resumed Robson took control and lead the remaining laps while being trailed by Josh Collins. Season Champion Wayne Walsh appeared to exercise restraint and caution while settling for third and picking up some valuable points toward the Buy & Sell Cup. Fourth place went to David Bishop in #19 and Gerald Hicks in #30 rounded out the top five.

The Burnout Contest saw Andrew Morgan of Carbonear first to start the burnout. Morgan had the Black and Gold covered in smoke until the tire exploded.

The Weather Channel was calling for Sunny Skies and no rain while we had Envoirnment Canada calling for Cloudy periods and showers in the afternoon. The Weather Channel called it correctly as no rain fell and with temperatures in the mid teens it was a great day for racing at Avondale Speedway!

Thunder Division Heat Races were won by Fraser Petten from North River, Art Goodyear Pouch Cove and Brian Furlong The Goulds. The Feature Race had a determined driver from Harbour Grace by the name of Blair Sheppard take the lead on the first lap and lead the first seven laps until he was passed by Brian Furlong. Sheppard shot back under Furlong on the next lap to take back the lead and hold on for the checkered flag. The regular season points champion Steven Peach passed furlong to take and hold second to the finish. Peach was challenged for second by Harnum Jackson and Art Goodyear but it was Goodyear picking up third and Harnum Jackson fourth. Peter Hiscock from Spaniards Bay rounded out the top five.

Street Lightning Heat Races were won by Scottie Royal from Job’s Cove, Steven Guest Goulds and Jason Neville from St. John’s. The Feature Race saw the Regular Season Points Champion Jason Neville start in the rear of the field. He was working his way toward the front but on lap six was sidelined with a blown motor. This set the stage for a shout-out between two former track Champions (Jason Groves of Hearts Desire and Steven Guest from the Goulds) . Jason Weir lead the first lap but he was overtaken and passed by Guest on lap two. Weir continue to challenge Guest but was unable to make the pass. Meanwhile former track champion Jason Groves made a move around Weir and was closing in on front runner Guest. Groves continued to trail Guest and attempt to pass Guest for the next 13 laps but Guest “protected the line”. On the last lap Groves charged to the inside of Guest coming off turn four, Guest continued to “protect the line” forcing Groves to infield which allowed Guest to grab the checkered flag. Scottie Royal who is in the chase for the Cup followed Groves and finished third. Cup contenders Traverese and Carey rounded out the top five.

The Powder Puff Race had more lady racer’s than there were cars available. However Samantha Walsh from Placentia was ahead of the game when she came prepared with her own well prepared pink #18 with Collins Contacting as her sponsor. Samantha was the driver many thought would never race again when she rolled over a car borrowed from a driver in her very first race. When the green flag was dropped it was Amanda Lannon from Placentia charging to the front in a car owned by newcomer Robert Legge. Last years Champion Amy Dunne of Renews started in the back and was working her way through the field in an effort to catch the fast moving car of Lannon. At the finish line Lannon took the checkered flag with Amy Dunne close behind followed by Samantha Walsh and Leona Chaison of the Goulds in the #20 car. Amy Dunne continues to lead in the point standings for 2009 Powder Puff Championship she also is leading in the voting as one of Avondale Speedway drivers in the “Atlantic Canada’s Driver of the year Award” on the website www.RacingSpectator.ca

The Super Stock Heat races were won by Josh Collins of Placentia and Wayne Walsh of Holyrood. The Feature Race saw the #19 driven by David Bishop lead the first lap. Gerald Hicks in the #30 passed Bishop and held on for the next two laps until he was passed by Cyril Robson and a close following Walsh in the #99. Weir in #59 was in fourth at Lap four but mechanical problems caused him to pit on lap six. Walsh followed Robson for the next 13 laps at times close to the back bumper. Walsh was unable to get around Robson maybe due in part to a tire which was going down and which eventually forced him to pit on lap 17. Hicks followed Robson across the finish line. Steady and careful driving by Dwayne Carter in the #32 Tulk Tire Car earned third place. David Bishop in #19 Sky Steel car got fourth and Wayne Walsh rounded out the top five.
