Weather was a multi-winner


While many tracks had their initial races of 2012 this past weekend, the weather was a winner at a few speedplants.

Albany Saratoga had two shows with Stewart Friesen taking the checkered on Thursday and Tim McCreadie winning on Friday.

Also on Friday, Meme DeSantis won the make-up and regular feature at Big Diamond. Chad Brachman ventured into Western PA from his home in Sanborn, NY to pick up the victory at Lernerville’s opener. Billy Van Pelt visited the winner’s circle at Black Rock with Kevin Hartnett taking top honors at Penn Can’s opener. I-88’s lidlifter went to Mitch Gibbs and Ryan Phelps took the first race at Brewerton. Accord’s initial race of the year was won by Andy Bachetti. Jeremy Wilder was the victor at Glen Ridge.

On Saturday, Bridgeport Speedway’s 30-lap main went only 20 tours due to rain and Richie Pratt, Jr. took his second win of the year. Ryan Godown won at New Egypt Speedway. Brett Hearn took home the checkered flag at Lebanon Valley for the second week in a row.

Features were postponed at Grandview and Orange County. Races were cancelled at Mahoning, Mercer, Canandaigua, Delaware, Fonda and Can-AM.  Sunday’s ROC event at Five Mile Point has been rescheduled for Monday, July 2.
