Jeff Halligan and the Risser Motorsports team have been steadily getting better and better as the season has unfolded.  As the team has shared before, their approach to the season has been a phased one.  With key races circled on the calendar, each race leading up to the milestone events is an opportunity to prepare, improve and be ready for the test.

 

The most recent marked event on the team’s calendar was the Bob Weikert Memorial, in which the team earned a podium finish against the All Star Circuit of Champions.   Following that, the team turned their focus to Pennsylvania Speedweek, which begins in late June.  Halligan kicked off the team’s month of June and Speedweek preparation by winning at Port Royal Speedway in the Risser Motorsports / TheTreeCenter.com / Victory Auto of Lewistown / EMM Sales & Service / Jake’s Golf Carts, No.45.

 

June 11th:  Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

     [21 cars, Heat 1st (1), A-main 9th (9)]

 

Halligan started on the pole of the last of three 8-lap heats for the 21 cars on hand.  He never gave the rest of the field a chance to take a shot at him.  The Ephrata, PA wheelman dominated the heat, winning by 4.076 seconds over Michael Walter II and Mike Wagner.  Trenton Sheaffer and Logan Wagner rounded out the top five.

 

The starting lineup for the 25-lap feature event was set using a handicapping format, which placed Halligan on the inside of row five as the highest point man in the season standings to record a top three finish in the heat races.

 

Although Halligan has made a habit of advancing in nearly every race he has competed in at the fairgrounds half-mile in Port Royal this season, on this night he wasn’t able to move forward during the A-main.

 

“We were a couple adjustments away from passing cars.  I was good in (turns) one and two, and I could get runs on guys, but I just couldn’t get through (turns) three and four the way I needed to.“, Halligan shared.

 

“We’ve been really consistent with a lot of top-10’s, so I’m definitely happy about that.  Now we’re aiming for top-5’s on a regular basis.”

 

Up Next

 

Jeff Halligan will be back at Port Royal Speedway on Saturday night, June 18th for Open Wheel Madness II, featuring the ‘USAC Eastern Blast’ USAC National Sprint Cars racing for $6,000, USAC Silver Crown teams competing for $8,000, & the 410 winged sprint cars  chasing a top prize of $5,000.

 

With no racing slated at Port Royal on June 25th, the event will be the final chance for Halligan and crew chief Kyle Defibaugh to fine tune the Risser Motorsports No.45 before PA Speedweek rolls into ‘The Speed Palace’ on Wednesday, June 29th.  The team plans to compete in several Speedweek events.  More details will be released soon.

Henderson Looking Toward World of Outlaws Visit to Knoxville Following a Frustrating Weekend

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Knoxville, IA – June 9, 2022

by Justin Snyder, Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Justin Henderson scored a weekend best eighth-place finish as part of a doubleheader at Knoxville Raceway last Saturday night. The top ten finish was a welcomed sight after a lap one wreck resulted in a 24th place finish during the first feature event of the night.

 

Plans to compete during the weekend at Huset’s Speedway fell through after a rainstorm hit the Speedway on Sunday and postponed the event.

 

“I really thought we had a car capable of winning in the first one and we probably would have been on the podium in feature two if not for that wreck,” said Henderson. “We didn’t get to do near as much racing as we’d hoped this weekend, but to be able to bring home a top ten in a banged up car lessons the sting a little bit.”

 

Henderson kicked off the night at Knoxville by timing in ninth quickest out of 35 cars in attendance in time trials with a fastest lap of 15.280 seconds. He then advanced two positions in a heat race to finish in second and earned a spot in the feature re-draw as a result.

 

After a lengthy rain delay at the track, Henderson lined up from the outside second row for the A-main and was feeling confident about his chances of ending up in victory lane. However, any thoughts of scoring his first win of the 2022 racing season came to a screeching halt in turn’s three and four on the opening circuit. 

 

While running in the third position, the second place driver got turned around in front of him and left him with nowhere to go. He made heavy contact with the spinning car and ended up getting into the outside guardrail as a result. The team surveyed the damage and opted to get the car ready for the make-up feature instead of heading back out with a damaged racecar. As a result, he was credited with finishing 24th.

 

“When he started spinning, I wanted to get around him quickly to be able to keep going and I thought he was actually going to save it,” he said. “I just barely caught him and when it backed into the fence the car was in pretty rough shape. Right away our main focus was to be ready for the second feature and not lose too many points sitting in the trailer.”

 

The team made repairs to the car and Henderson was able to line up for the make-up feature event from the seventh position. As a result of the damage sustained in the first feature event, Henderson struggled with the handling of the car and he managed to bring the car home in one piece with an eighth-place finish. The top ten finish was the ninth of the season for Henderson aboard the Sandvig Motorsports No. 7.

 

“We got the car in good enough shape to get back on track, but it was a monster to handle,” said Henderson. “I fell back to 14th actually, but I tried something really unorthodox to make the car feel half decent and we actually managed to get going and ended up eighth.”

 

Next up for Henderson and Sandvig will be a pair of $10,000-to-win World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car starts on Friday and Saturday at Knoxville before they turn their attention to defending their points lead on Sunday at Huset’s Speedway.

 

With the added money on the line and the uptick in competition with the Outlaws in town, Henderson is hoping the speed they have had all season to start the night at Knoxville will pay off when it counts.

 

“We’re excited to compete with the Outlaws and we’ll be doing it with a new car after last weekend’s wreck,” said Henderson. “I hate to lose a car that we have had so much success in, but this one is good too and we’re ready to let her rip. We’ve been fast all season to start the night at Knoxville and the way the Outlaw format works you’ve got to be fast right off the trailer and I’m hopeful we can break through with a win or a podium and forget about last weekend.”

Reinhardt Caps Solid Ohio Weekend with Top-10 at Atomic

/0 Comments/in , /by

Ohio Speedweek on Tap With 9 Races in 9 Days 

Port Royal, PA – June 8, 2022

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Kyle Reinhardt and the Capitol Renegade / Capitol Custom Coaches & Trailers / Champion Hi-Tech Lubricants / J&J Auto Racing No.91 were in Ohio last weekend with the Tezos All Star Circuit of Champions for their final chance to prepare for the upcoming Ohio Speedweek.

 

The Capitol Renegade team made the most of two important opportunities.  Friday they added to their notes at Attica Raceway Park, a facility that has been challenging for Reinhardt and team.  Saturday they made their first visit to Atomic Speedway, giving them valuable track time to start a notebook on the southern Ohio track.

 

June 3:  Attica Raceway Park / Attica, OH

      (38 cars, Qualifying 6th Group 2, Heat 5th, A-main 14th)

 

The always well-supported Attica Raceway Park drew a field of 38 cars for the $6,000 to win All Star event.  The field was divided into four groups for qualifying per the All Star format.

 

Kyle Reinhardt’s qualifying effort garnered the 6th quickest lap in Group 2.  With only the top five finishers from each 8-lap heat race transferring to the A-main, the Neptune City, NJ native would need to make improvements to avoid the B-main.

 

From outside row three, Reinhardt pursued a top five transfer spot from the drop of the green.  Mid-race he slipped backwards to 7th but was able to regroup and find his rhythm.  He recaptured 6th on lap five, then set his sights once again on a transfer spot.  On the final circuit he worked his way by Scott Bogucki to grab 5th and made his way into the A-main.

Reinhardt started 17th in the 40-lap main event.  From there, it would be an up and down run.  By lap eight, he had navigated his way to 13th and appeared capable of more.  

 

Over the next twenty laps, things went the wrong direction.  Reinhardt found himself losing what he had gained and more.  With ten laps remaining, he was mired in 18th.

 

During the closing laps Reinhardt bounced back,  climbing to 14th by the time the checkered flag fell.

 

“We have a lot of work to do still at Attica.“, Reinhardt summarized.

 

June 4:  George Fisher Memorial Freedom 40, Atomic Speedway / Chillicothe, OH

      (38 cars, Qualifying 3rd Group 2/4th overall, Heat 2nd, A-main 7th)

 

Teams rolled nearly 3 hours due south to Atomic Speedway for Saturday’s $15,000 to win George Fisher Memorial race and once again, 38 teams signed in.

 

Kyle Reinhardt found himself in group 2 once again, but this time turned in an impressive time, good for 4th overall and 3rd quickest in his group.  It was a much better start to the night.

 

The qualifying run provided Reinhardt with an outside front row starting spot for heat number two.  He was not able to chase down Cole Duncan for the top spot but he held a firm grasp on 2nd throughout the 8-lap qualifying race.

 

Reinhardt took the green for the 40-lap A-main from the 9th position and quickly found himself in a little trouble.  During the scramble for track position on the start, Reinhardt found himself stuck in the middle and losing spots.  He slipped to 13th.

 

Reinhardt spent the next thirty laps trying to get out of the early hole, which was a task made even more difficult when the track surface took rubber.  When a track takes rubber, the preferred line is narrow, passing is extremely difficult, and tire wear becomes a concern.

 

The race became a balance of gaining positions and making it to the end.  The final ten laps saw Reinhardt make some passes in the rubber, but also benefit from attrition when a few others lost tires.

 

With two laps remaining, Reinhardt found himself in 7th and surging forward, taking advantage of a few restarts in the final four laps.  He raced into 5th at the white flag, then claimed 4th off of turn two on the final circuit.

 

As Reinhardt entered turn three, he too fell to the tire wear circumstances.  His right rear tire exploded and he managed to maintain enough control to cross the line 7th on the rim.

 

“It’s a top ten, so we’ll take it, but we don’t really know how good we would’ve been tonight.  When a track takes rubber, you don’t race the track the way you would normally, so it’s hard to know how our car really was and get good notes.“, Reinhardt commented.

 

“Should’ve been better, could’ve been worse.”, he said, simplifying the team’s night into a single sentence.

 

Up Next

 

Reinhardt embarks on the grueling 9-day, 9-race Ohio Sprint Speedweek this Friday, June 10th.  The opener will take place at Attica Raceway Park on Friday night, followed by two consecutive nights at Fremont Speedway.  See the full schedule below.

Zach Newlin and BK Motorsports Working on the Right Recipe

/0 Comments/in , /by

Port Royal and Path Valley Provide Good Weekend of Notes

Port Royal, PA – June 7, 2022

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Feature Photo Credit:  Garry Ferguson / WRT Speedwerx / Elite Racing Imagery

Losing a car is certainly not a setback any team wants to go through, but it is especially hard on a brand new team trying to establish itself, learn and build a notebook.

 

It took a lot of hard work on a short holiday week, but BK Motorsports and Zach Newlin rebounded from a hard crash on June 29th to be ready for action again at Port Royal Speedway just six days later.

 

June 4:  Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (17 cars, Heat 7th, A-main 11th)

 

Zach Newlin lined up outside row number two for the first of two 8-lap heats Saturday afternoon at ‘The Speed Palace’.  The Millerstown, PA native lost a couple spots on the opening lap and wasn’t able to recapture them.  With all cars transferring to the A-main, there was no reason to overdrive the new car.  It was a good opportunity for Newlin to shake it down and figure out what adjustments they could make for the A-main.  He crossed the line in 7th.

 

During the opening laps of the 25-lap main event, Newlin moved forward from his 12th starting spot into 11th and began looking for a way to crack the top ten.  As some teams surged toward the front and others faded through the field, Newlin held serve around 12th.

 

Newlin was moving around, trying the high side, the middle and the low line, searching for a combination that made the car happy.  Drivers feel how the car responds and the crew sees the attitude of the car from their vantage point.  All of that information lands in the team’s notebook, helping them make informed and improved decisions at the next race.

 

Newlin moved up a spot to 11th as the race entered the final 10 laps, but he wasn’t able to break into the top ten before the checkered flag fell.  The goal for the night was to take what the car would give, get seat time, and continue building a notebook, so the 11th place finish was certainly a positive result.

 

A team cannot improve sitting at the shop, so with all the boxes checked on Saturday night, Newlin and the BK Motorsports team headed for Path Valley Speedway on Sunday with the Grove Financial & Associates / Dillman Hauling / Centre Roofing & Contracting / Mattas Motorsports / Victory Auto / Ron’s RV Sales / The Roast Post / FIT Transportation / Kirby Kitner Excavating / Christine Booher, Realtor / T&M Homebuilders / Strange Oval / Walker Performance Filtration / Newlin Bar Service No.77.

 

June 5:  Path Valley Speedway / Spring Run, PA

      (19 cars, Qualifying 9th, Heat 4th, A-main 15th)

 

Sunday’s return of the 410 sprint cars to Path Valley Speedway brought 19 teams to compete, including the BK Motorsports No.77 piloted by Zach Newlin.

 

Newlin registered the 9th quickest qualifying lap, matching Mark Smith’s 8th best lap of 10.792 seconds, but losing the tiebreaker to Smith.

 

Newlin was on the inside of the second row for the green flag of the third and final heat race of the day.  He went on to finish 4th in his first career 410 sprint car race on a quarter-mile track.

 

Zach Daddy took the green flag for the 40-lap feature from the 12th position.  In a relatively uneventful, workmanlike A-main, Newlin logged a 15th place finish. 

 

“I feel like I wasn’t aggressive enough, but right now we’re trying to make laps and learn.  We need to race to improve.  If we tear up equipment, we can’t do that.  We’re not going to race defensively but we are going to race smart.”, Newlin explained.

 

“We’ve definitely got some things to figure out with this car, but my comfort level is getting better.  This car has some differences from the last one I raced, so we’re all adjusting together.  It was good to get a couple nights where we could make a lot of laps and learn how it responds to adjustments.  It’ll take some time, but the ingredients are there and we will figure out the right recipe.”

 

Up Next

 

Friday night June 10th, Zach Newlin will be in the seat of the Mansberger Motorsports No.21m for the 358 sprint car Summer Series race at Williams Grove Speedway.  

 

The following night, Newlin will be back at Port Royal Speedway in the BK Motorsports No.77 410 sprint car on Camera and Autograph Night.  The pits will be open to all ticketholders for one hour prior to the evening’s action.  Stop by for a photo with Zach, say hello, and get an autograph!

Halligan & Risser Motorsports Score First Win of 2022 at The Speed Palace

/0 Comments/in , /by

Team Moves Into Second in Championship Standings

Port Royal, PA – June 6, 2022

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Fresh off a podium and a top-5 last weekend, Jeff Halligan and the Risser Motorsports team unloaded their No.45 at Port Royal Speedway this past Saturday night looking to maintain that momentum, and hopefully check the one box they had not yet this season:  park it in victory lane.

 

Mission accomplished on both objectives.

 

June 4:  Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

     (17 cars, Heat 2nd, A-main 1st)

 

The Risser Motorsports / TheTreeCenter.com / Victory Auto of Lewistown / EMM Sales & Service / Jake’s Golf Carts entry was among seventeen 410 sprint cars pit-side June 4th at ‘The Speed Palace’.  Heats lineups for the show were set by pill draw and the feature lineup would be set using the handicapping format based on the season championship point standings.

 

Halligan was slated to start 7th in the first 8-lap heat race, however he rolled to the green in 6th after one competitor chose to start at the rear of the field.

 

When the green flag dropped, Halligan served notice immediately that he was up on the wheel.  He stormed into 2nd by the completion of lap one and set his sights on leader Curt Stroup.  He wasn’t able to track down the top spot and came home 2nd. 

 

The handicapping format set the top four in the season point standings like this to start the 25-lap A-main:  Mike Wagner (4th in points) lined up 5th, Halligan (3rd in points) lined up 6th, Lucas Wolfe (2nd in points) lined up 7th and Logan Wagner (1st in points) lined up 8th.

 

On numerous occasions this season, Halligan has found himself holding his ground in the early going, then able to come on strong late in a race to gain positions.  He has noted that it’s good to be fast late rather than ‘fall off’, but he and the team have been working to get out of the gate a bit quicker as well.

 

He was able to accomplish that in the heat race, then showed it was no fluke by moving into 4th by lap one, 3rd by lap two and 2nd by lap five in the feature event.  The team has clearly made progress on that front as well.  Another box checked.

 

Halligan pursued leader Justin Whittal for the next ten circuits, drawing close on a couple occasions but quite not close enough to take away the top spot.  As the race moved toward the final chapter, fans expected Halligan’s typical late-race push to come and provide an exciting close, but it wasn’t necessary.  Justin Whittall’s right rear tire exploded on the backstretch with ten laps remaining.

 

Halligan led the field back to the green for the final ten laps with Mike Walter II, Dylan Cisney, Logan Wager and Lucas Wolfe in tow.  He was up to the challenge, pulling away by several car lengths.

 

A final caution flag appeared with one lap remaining, setting up another opportunity for someone to challenge Halligan.  Logan Wagner moved into second on that restart but the Ephrata, PA wheelman was able to maintain his lead and capture the victory by 0.879 seconds.

 

“The yellow is last thing you want to see coming through three and four to the checkered, but I wasn’t too worried.  I knew we were pretty good.  I just wanted to get this thing over with.”, Halligan said with a relieved grin in victory lane.

 

With the win now added to his total, Halligan sits second in the season-long championship point standings, 185 markers behind leader Logan Wagner and 20 ahead of third place Lucas Wolfe.  

 

“We’ve been fast all year, but everybody talks about Logan Wagner and Anthony Macri.  We’ve progressively  gotten better.  We put a little better motor in last week and it’s making the car drive a lot better.”, Halligan shared.

 

“The Risser’s put a lot of money into this operation.  We wouldn’t be 410 racing without them, so I really want to thank them.  We definitely couldn’t do this without them.  We rebooted our program for this season.   We switched to Panther Chassis (by Panther Frameworx), which is kind of an unknown, but the car works really well.”

 

The team plans to focus on Port Royal Speedway over the next few weeks to make sure their equipment is in good shape for PA Speedweek, which hosts several big shows that they have circled on the calendar as their next targets this season.

 

“The way things are going, I’m ready to get back at it right now.” Halligan said Monday.  “I wish we could race more but we want to make sure we can get to the end of the season.  We’re in good shape right now, but there are a lot of big races late in the season that we didn’t get to race last year, so we want to be smart and make sure we are there with a shot to win those.”   

 

Up Next

 

Jeff and the team will return to Port Royal Speedway once again this Saturday night, June 11th on Camera & Autograph Night.  The pits will be open to all ticketholders for one hour prior to the evening’s action.  Please stop by to say hello, get an autograph and get a photo with Jeff!

Reinhardt Has Attica and Atomic on Tap This Weekend as Final Tune-up for Ohio Speedweek

/0 Comments/in , /by

Port Royal Struggles Continue at Weikert Memorial

Port Royal, PA – June 2, 2022

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Kyle Reinhardt and his Capitol Renegade team have shown a lot of progress on the bullrings around the Midwest so far this season, but one mystery they haven’t been able to solve the past couple seasons is the always slick Port Royal Speedway.

 

When they unloaded the Capitol Renegade / Capitol Custom Coaches & Trailers / Champion Hi-Tech Lubricants / J&J Auto Racing No.91 for the 2-day Bob Weikert Memorial this past weekend at ‘The Speed Palace’, they brought some new ideas in hopes of turning their luck around.

 

Weikert Memorial Format

 

Although the lucrative event is sanctioned by the All Star Circuit of Champions, the Weikert Memorial uses its own, unique format.  Full details are included below, but here are the key points for the car counts at Port Royal Speedway’s event:

 

  • single flight time trials, order determined by pill draw
  • points awarded following time trials
  • 10-lap heats, top 8 in each starting lineup is inverted 8 from time trials
  • passing points awarded following heats
  • top 10 in points after qualifying participate in a redraw for their A-main starting spot
  • 11-20 in points after qualifying line up in A-main heads up by points
  • remaining drivers race the B-main with the top 4 finishers tagging the back of 30-lap A-main

 

May 28:  Weikert Memorial Night 1, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (41 cars, Qualifying 31st, Heat 5th, B-main 15th)

 

Saturday was a bit of an uphill battle from the start.  The Capitol Renegade team’s pill draw placed them 35th in the time trial order for the 41 cars on hand.  From that slot, Reinhardt mustered the 31st quickest time in the field and earned 60 points.

 

Reinhardt’s qualifying run put him on the pole of heat number three with a chance to add 100 points if he could hold off the field for 10 laps.  From the inside line, he wasn’t able to take control of the race on the opening lap, so Reinhardt held down second.  Fighting an ill-handling car, he slid backwards to a 5th place finish when the checkered flag fell, adding another 66 points to his total for the night.

 

Following the heat race, the team had a lot to get done before the B-main.  They replaced the steering box on the No.91 and made adjustments that would hopefully enable Reinhardt to race into a top four transfer position.  The 12-lap B-main was his final shot to earn his way into the A-main.  The adjustments would have to be spot on to get there from his 11st starting spot. 

 

Things quickly went from bad to worse when Reinhardt’s No.91 looped around in turn one on the start, completing a full 360-degreen spin and continuing on.  By All Star rules, he was required to restart the race from the rear of the field.  Reinhardt’s night ended with a 15th place finish in the B-main.

 

May 29:  Weikert Memorial Night 2, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (44 cars, Qualifying 22nd, Heat 10th, B-main DNS)

 

Day two of the Weikert Memorial didn’t bring much better fortune for Reinhardt.  He went out late (32nd of 44 cars) and registered the 22nd quickest lap.  That was the good news.

 

Reinhardt started outside the second row in the fourth heat and was working to find a groove that would make his tight race car a little happier.  Instead, he found the outside wall in turn two, damaging the front axle.

 

The Capitol Renegade team, with assistance from multiple other teams, executed a front axle change in the work area to get Reinhardt back on the track.  He finished the qualifying race in 10th.

 

Following the heat race, the team found rear end damage from the earlier impact.  The damage would require a complete change of the rear assembly.  Reinhardt was scheduled to start 13th in the B-main, so the team made the decision to load up and call it a night.  

 

“We just have to move on and shake off the weekend.  We’ll keep digging and get this figured out“, Reinhardt said.

 

Up Next

 

Reinhardt and the Capitol Renegade team will head to Ohio for the weekend with the All Star Circuit of Champions.  The tour will make stops at Attica Raceway Park on Friday and Atomic Speedway on Saturday.  Both tracks will later be a part of the 9-race Ohio Speedweek that will take place June 10th-18th.

 

“I’m looking forward to getting back to Attica and building on our improvement there.  Atomic will be a new track for me.  We’ve been getting better on these types of places, so we can use this weekend to get ourselves ready for Ohio Speedweek.“, Reinhardt commented.

Newlin’s Weikert Memorial Weekend a Tough One

/0 Comments/in , /by

BK Motorsports Working Hard To Be Ready for Upcoming Weekend

Port Royal, PA – June 2, 2022

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Feature Photo Credit:  Jeremy Zarfos Photography

Zach Newlin and the new BK Motorsports 410 sprint car team entered the 2-day Bob Weikert Memorial race weekend with very limited laps under their collective belt and very little time to get to know each other or their equipment.

 

Newlin’s first outing with the team at ‘The Speed Palace’ one week earlier was interrupted by rain a few laps into the feature event and his second outing with the team the next day at Path Valley Speedway was washed out by rain following time trials.

 

Add to that a field of some of the best teams in the country who had come to town to chase the top prize of $10,000 on Saturday night and $29,000 on Sunday night at Port Royal Speedway.

 

All that considered, the weekend was likely to be a challenging one, but you have to race to improve.

 

Weikert Memorial Format

 

Although the lucrative event is sanctioned by the All Star Circuit of Champions, the Weikert Memorial uses its own, unique format.  Full details are included below, but here are the key points for the car counts at Port Royal Speedway’s event:

 

  • single flight time trials, order determined by pill draw
  • points awarded following time trials
  • 10-lap heats, top 8 in each starting lineup is inverted 8 from time trials
  • passing points awarded following heats
  • top 10 in points after qualifying participate in a redraw for their A-main starting spot
  • 11-20 in points after qualifying line up in A-main heads up by points
  • remaining drivers race the B-main with the top 4 finishers tagging the back of 30-lap A-main

 

May 28:  Weikert Memorial Night 1, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (41 cars, Qualifying 29th, Heat 11th, B-main 17th)

 

During Saturday’s qualifying, Zach Newlin wheeled the Grove Financial & Associates / Dillman Hauling / Centre Roofing & Contracting / Mattas Motorsports / Victory Auto / Ron’s RV Sales / The Roast Post / FIT Transportation / Kirby Kitner Excavating / Christine Booher, Realtor / T&M Homebuilders / Strange Oval / Walker Performance Filtration / Newlin Bar Service, BK Motorsports No.77 around the fairgrounds half-mile oval in 17.069 seconds, good enough for 29th of the 41 cars to go under the clock.

 

The inversion put the BK Motorsports entry on the pole for heat number one.  The initial start was called back when Newlin hit the gas, but his front row mate did not.  Newlin was sent back one row per All Star rules.  

 

In the end, that was the least of Newlin’s problems.  When the race finally went green, he immediately experienced a left rear vibration.  The shaking of the left rear tire was visible from the stands.  Newlin navigated his way out of the racing groove and pulled off the racing surface.  The team later determined the wheel was bent, causing the unbalanced rotation.

 

Having been credited with an 11th place finish in the heat race, Newlin’s point total suffered and landed him in the 18th starting spot in the 12-lap B-main, from which only the top four finishers would advance to the A-main.  The Millerstown, PA driver took advantage of the seat time, ultimately finishing his night in 17th.

 

May 29:  Weikert Memorial Night 2, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (44 cars, Qualifying 29th, Heat 10th, B-main 19th)

 

On night number two of the Bob Weikert Memorial event, 44 teams were pit-side.  Once again Zach Newlin registered the 29th quickest lap in the field, and once again he had the pole for heat number one.

 

Newlin led the first lap of the heat race and held his own in the early going but faded during the latter half and crossed the line in 10th.

 

Starting deep in the B-main again, this time 16th, the 12-lap event would serve as valuable seat time.  Newlin was doing just that, making laps until lap nine.  He had a run off turn two and was looking to clear the two cars just in front of him.  As Newlin moved to the low line and was almost past the pair, contact with another car sent Newlin’s No.77 into a nasty series of end-over-end tumbles, throwing off a shower of sparks as the metal impacted the inside concrete barrier.  Thankfully, Newlin crawled from the wreckage under his own power.

 

“We are just trying to figure this car out and get some laps.  I just came back from a concussion from another wreck here (in March).  I thought I had him cleared.  Now we have a junk race car.  It sucks.  We were supposed to start the makeup feature later tonight.“, a disappointed and frustrated Newlin said in an on-track interview on FloRacing while crews worked to clean up the scene.

 

Up Next

 

Plans are for Newlin and the BK Motorsports team to return to Port Royal Speedway this Saturday, June 4th.  They are working hard to get a another car ready in time.

 

Zach’s next 358 sprint car race in the Mansberger Motorsports No.21m is slated for Friday, June 10th at Williams Grove Speedway.

Jeff Halligan Earns Podium Finish in Weikert Memorial at Port Royal Speedway

/0 Comments/in , /by

Records Another Top-5 in Makeup Feature On the Same Night

Port Royal, PA – June 1, 2022

by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Management

Feature Photo Credit:  Jeremy Zarfos Photography

Jeff Halligan and the Risser Motorsports team have been waiting for the Weikert Memorial at Port Royal Speedway since the season began.  Although they have performed well thus far, they felt things were just a tick off.  They decided to make the trip to Selinsgrove Speedway to try some things and get one more race under their belt before the big weekend.

 

May 26:  Thursday Thunder, Selinsgrove Speedway / Selinsgrove, PA

      (20 cars, Qualifying 3rd Group 2, Heat 5th, A-main 11th)

 

Halligan’s No.45 was one of 20 cars pit-side Thursday night at Selinsgrove Speedway.  Following qualifying, the field was divided into two 8-lap heat races to determine the starting lineup for the A-main.  The heats line-ups were set straight-up by their qualifying times.

 

Halligan timed 3rd quickest in Group 2 and thus started inside row two of the second heat.  A stumble on the start cost the Ephrata, PA driver two spots.  He was able to settle into a rhythm but wasn’t able to recapture the lost positions and rode home 5th.

 

The 25-lap main event was run at a blistering pace set by Gio Scelzi.  Scelzi took command from the start.  Meanwhile, 10th starting Jeff Halligan was battling to hang on to a top-10 spot.  The race remained green and went the entire distance, setting a new 25-lap track record of 7:12:535 for Scelzi.  Halligan held on for an 11th place finish.

 

Following their first trip of the year to Selinsgrove Speedway, the team turned their attention to one of the marquee events that is circled on their calendar each year:  The Bob Weikert Memorial at Port Royal Speedway.

 

Weikert Memorial Format

 

Although the lucrative event is sanctioned by the All Star Circuit of Champions, the Weikert Memorial uses its own, unique format.  Full details are included below, but here are the key points for the car counts at Port Royal Speedway’s event:

 

  • single flight time trials, order determined by pill draw
  • points awarded following time trials
  • 10-lap heats, top 8 in each starting lineup is inverted 8 from time trials
  • passing points awarded following heats
  • top 10 in points after qualifying participate in a redraw for their A-main starting spot
  • 11-20 in points after qualifying line up in A-main heads up by points
  • remaining drivers race the B-main with the top 4 finishers tagging the back of 30-lap A-main

 

May 28:  Weikert Memorial Night 1, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (41 cars, Qualifying 30th, Heat 1st, B-main 3rd, A-main 17th)

 

The Risser Motorsports / TheTreeCenter.com / Victory Auto of Lewistown / EMM Sales & Service / Jake’s Golf Carts, No.45 signed in along with 40 other cars at ‘The Speed Palace’ for night number one of the Bob Weikert Memorial.

 

Jeff Halligan was the 22nd driver to hit the track for time trials.  His best lap of 17.073 was a tick slower than the team was hoping for and it landed him 30th overall in the results.

 

The invert for the 10-lap heat races put Halligan on the pole of the second heat.  Jeff led flag-to-flag, winning the heat over Chris Windom by 0.533 seconds.  Normally a heat win would be a ticket to the show but in the Weikert format it simply earns points.  

 

Halligan’s point total following the heat was good, but not good enough to lock into the A-main.  Instead, he started 6th in the 12-lap B-main and would have to race his way in by finishing in the top four.

 

Halligan fought hard to get into the 4th spot by lap 7, then grabbed some insurance by capturing 3rd on a lap 9 restart.  The 3rd place finish gave the Risser Motorsports entry the 23rd starting spot in the night one finale.

 

In the 30-lap feature event, Halligan wasn’t able to make gains during the first half of the event but eventually slid his way inside the top-20 to a 17th place finish.

 

Following racing action, Halligan was awarded the Carquest Perseverance award by the All Star Circuit of Champions.

 

May 29:  Weikert Memorial Night 2, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (44 cars, Qualifying 14th, Heat 1st, A-main 3rd)

 

Jeff and the Risser Motorsports team made the 90 minute trip back to their shop after Saturday night’s race and made the decision to change engines.  An engine change would mean going into Sunday’s race with a bit of an unknown, but they knew they needed to take the risk because the one they had in was just off somehow.  That was a mystery they would have to investigate further later, but for now the goal was to make sure they gave themselves their best shot at winning the Weikert Memorial.

 

The car count increased to 44 for Sunday’s show but the format remained the same.  Two things are required for a team to position itself near the front of the main event field with a shot at winning:  a qualifying lap in the top third of the field and passing multiple cars in the heat race.  Any team who can even do one of those two things puts themselves in a decent position for the night.

 

Halligan received some early feedback on the engine change by way of his qualifying laps.  He was the 41st car to hit the track.  A dirt track dries out and loses grip as laps are run on it, so going out late in a single-flight time trial format is usually a prescription for a poor lap.  It can be a difficult obstacle to overcome.

 

Not this time.  Halligan ripped off a lap of 16.933, ranking him 14th quickest overall.  Goal number one, complete.

 

The next step would be to move forward from his 5th starting spot in heat number two.  Halfway through the 10-lap race, Halligan had gained one spot and sat in 4th.  Then he caught fire, figuratively.

 

Halligan stormed to the lead on lap seven and held on for the win, earning the maximum points available to him.  Goal number two, complete.

 

Halligan was now 4th in the overall point standings for the night and was locked into the redraw for one of the top-10 starting spots in the prestigious Weikert Memorial main event.

 

“We just bought this motor from (Mark) Coldren on Wednesday and put it in at 4am this morning.“, Halligan shared during his post-race interview on FloRacing.

 

It had been a late night following Saturday’s race.  Halligan and the Risser Motorsports team traveled 90 minutes back to their shop, washed the car and changed the engine before getting some much needed rest for day number two of the Weikert Memorial.

 

The redraw turned up pill number five for Halligan, putting him inside row three for the 30-lap race.  In the early going, he slipped back to 6th, then recovered to the 5th spot.  He held that spot for nearly 20 laps.  A caution with five laps remaining provided an opportunity.

 

In what seems to be becoming his trademark this season, Halligan saved his best for the closing laps.  He restarted 5th with five laps remaining and drove into 4th one lap later.

 

Carrying a ton of momentum, Halligan dove under Tyler Courtney to claim 3rd with three laps remaining.  With a head of steam, Halligan pulled alongside Brent Marks for 2nd but couldn’t get clear of the No.19m and had to fall in line behind him for one final shot.  He was unable to mount another challenge and finished 0.807 seconds behind Marks on the podium in 3rd spot.

 

In honor of Bob Weikert, Jackson Motorplex (MN) and Huset’s Speedway (SD) had added $5,000 to the prize money for both the 2nd and 3rd place finishers, giving Jeff Halligan and the Risser Motorsports team an $8,300 pay day.

 

“I went for clean air in the middle on that restart and started making up ground, so I thought I’m just gonna stay here.”, Halligan explained of the late surge.  “I have to thank Panther Chassis.  This is kind of a new car in 410 racing.  We’ve been working on it trying to get it a little better and I think we’re getting there.”

 

“All year long we’ve been really good late in races, which you obviously want to do, but we need to figure out how to get a little better earlier in the night too.“, Halligan said.

 

May 29:  Completion of May 21st A-main, Port Royal Speedway / Port Royal, PA

      (34 cars, Qualifying 3rd Group C, Heat 2n, A-main 4th)

 

The May 21st feature event that was suspended with 8 laps complete, was resumed following the Weikert Memorial.  Jeff Halligan restarted 4th behind Justin Whittall, Brent Marks and Logan Wagner.

 

The final 17 laps were relatively uneventful.  Halligan held his ground but was unable to advance.  He went on to finish 4th behind Logan Wagner, Brent Marks, and Dylan Cisney, logging a second top-5 finish in the span of just over an hour.

 

Up Next

Kody Hartlaub Matches Season Best 2nd Place 358 Sprint Finish at Lincoln; 410 Opportunity On Deck

Team Expands 358 Schedule for Balance of 2022

Abbottstown, PA – June 1st, 2022

Kody Hartlaub has been the model of consistency thus far in 2022.  And he’s no one-trick pony.  

 

He has competed at three different tracks and has recorded 8 top-10’s in 9 outings.  At this point in the season, the only box left to check is a victory.  That can’t be far away when a team is this steady.

 

May 28:  Lincoln Speedway / Abbottstown, PA

     (35 cars, Heat 1st, A-main 2nd)

 

Kody Hartlaub Racing is in the midst of a battle for the top spot in the season championship points at Lincoln Speedway.  Steve Owings held the top spot by 90 points over Hartlaub entering competition Saturday night.

 

The Brewer Home Improvements / Moose Blocks / Smith Titanium / SRR Engines / Siegel Racing / T and N Solutions / Jason Emlet Iron Valley Real Estate / Bigham Appraisals / Pretzel Boy / HAAS Shocks / C.H. Folk & Son Feeds / Chop Designs / Herr Electric, Kody Hartlaub Racing No.2 was among 35 entries for the Memorial Day Weekend event.

 

The sizable field was divided into five heats by pill draw.  The top four finishers from each race would transfer to the A-main, with the top two finishers being handicapped to start the 20-lap main event.  The starting field for the finale would be rounded out with the top four finishers from the B-main.

 

Hartlaub had the pole for heat number one, his first front row starting spot of the season.  He led the 10-lap qualifying race wire-to-wire over Steve Owings.

 

With the pair at the top of the point standings, Hartlaub and Owings assumed the 8th and 9th starting spots for the feature event.  Owings slipped by Hartlaub on the opening lap when the outside line didn’t take off as quickly as the inside line.  Hartlaub pursued the No.35 as the pair charged toward the front of the field.

 

Hartlaub reached 4th by lap three, then moved into the 2nd spot behind Owings on lap 7 and went to work to get to the point.  It wasn’t to be on this night, but Hartlaub brought home his second runner-up finish of the season to close out a very solid night.

 

“I tried everything to get to Steve (Owings), especially on those two late restarts, but just couldn’t quite get to him.  He was better than me in (turns) one and two.  Maybe if I would’ve gotten to the front first, we could’ve held him off.“, Hartlaub said after the race.

 

With a win awarding 300 points and 2nd place 250, plus all teams being awarded 50 show-up points, Owings extended his point lead over Hartlaub despite the East Berlin, PA driver’s great run.

 

“We are where we want to be.  We just don’t have a win yet.  The only night we missed the top ten was when we got involved in a wreck, but we still came back to finish 12th that night.  We’ve been racing more and venturing to new tracks.  That is helping us gain experience.  Experience is what enables teams to turn bad situations into positives.“, Hartlaub commented.

 

410 Sprint Opportunity

 

With a two-week break in their 358 sprint car schedule, Kody Hartlaub Racing will venture into the 410 sprint car world this Saturday night, June 4th, at Lincoln Speedway for the Steve Smith Tribute race, which will award the winner with $19,000 in honor of the Hall of Fame driver’s famous No.19.

 

Hartlaub has made a couple previous appearances in a 410 sprint car.  In 2021 he was at the wheel of another team’s car just to get a little seat time, but this will be his first venture in his own, more familiar equipment.

 

“I owe a huge thanks to MooseBlocks.com for arranging this opportunity for me to compete with the 410’s in the Steve Smith Tribute race with one of Shark Racing’s Newman’s Racing Engines under the hood.  My thanks to Shark Racing as well for that.  I really wanted to support the race because Stevie and I are friends and Smith Titanium helps us out a lot.  It means a lot to me to be able to compete in that race.  We have zero expectations but we are sure going to try our hardest.“, an appreciative Hartlaub said.

 

Schedule Expansion, Plus A Look Back

 

It’s been a busy few weeks for Hartlaub.  Leading up to last Saturday night, he competed in events at Path Valley Speedway, Williams Grove Speedway, and Lincoln Speedway.  No matter where he goes this season, he has been consistently near the front.

 

That’s the sign of a strong team that is on the verge of breaking through.

 

Let’s take a quick look back and learn how Hartlaub Racing’s schedule has expanded for the balance of 2022.

 

May 14:  Path Valley Speedway / Spring Run, PA

     (16 cars, Heat 4th, A-main 4th)

 

To improve as a driver and a team, you need to race and you need to face different tracks and challenges.  With that in mind, Kody Hartlaub Racing ventured to Path Valley Speedway on May 14th.  They were among 16 teams to sign in for the 358 sprint car event on the high-banked quarter-mile Pennsylvania oval.

 

Lineups for two heats were set by random draw and all cars would qualify for the 30-lap feature event.  Hartlaub was able to gain one spot in his heat race, advancing from his 5th starting spot to finish 4th.  

 

Hartlaub lined up 7th for the A-main but slipped to 8th on the opening lap.  A red flag on lap two set up a restart that Kody capitalized on, surging into 6th as the field went back to green.

 

As a result of some rain earlier in the evening, the track had a lot of grip and the field was ‘hammer down’, ripping off 28 non-stop, green flag laps after the restart.  Hartlaub was able to track down a couple more competitors before the check checkered flag fell.  As the race drew to a close, he was pushing for a spot on the podium by ran out of time and finished 4th. 

 

“We were a little tight in the heat race because we were expecting the track to be a little drier.  One spot better in the heat race would’ve meant one row closer the front for the feature.  That would’ve helped, but we learned a lot, had a good run and put it in the trailer in one piece.  That’s what we came here to do.“, Hartlaub said after the race.

 

May 20:  Williams Grove Speedway / Mechanicsburg, PA

     (27 cars, Heat 5th, A-main 10th)

 

Untimely Spring precipitation in Central Pennsylvania had erased the first three attempts by Williams Grove Speedway to get the 358 sprint car portion of their schedule started this season.  Kody Hartlaub Racing already had plans to compete at ‘The Grove’ on June 10th & July 23rd in two Summer Series events, so with only a half-dozen other 358 sprint car events remaining on the schedule, the team made the decision to add all the remaining shows at the Mechanicsburg, PA oval to their schedule and compete in the season points championship.

 

“We have our second motor ready now, so with the delayed start to the 358 season here (at Williams Grove), we decided we were in a position to race all the shows here without risking our season at Lincoln.“, Hartlaub shared.

 

Three 8-lap heats were set up by pill draw for the 27 entries in the pits Friday night, May 20th.  The top six finishers in each transferred directly to the A-main.  Hartlaub started and finished 5th in heat number three, one spot out of the redraw.

 

Hartlaub started 15th in the 20-lap feature event and went to work finding the fastest way around the famous, paper-clip shaped oval.  He gradually worked his way forward and into the top ten as the race drew to a close.  Hartlaub’s progress ended there and he logged a 10th place finish.

 

“I’ve been here three or four times before and was never able to get a complete night in.  We would start out good, then something would always happen.  We would either have mechanical issues or get rained out.  It was nice to get a full night in and really be able to get seat time.  The team and I learned a lot tonight.“

 

May 21:  Lincoln Speedway / Abbottstown, PA

     (34 cars, Heat 3rd, A-main 6th)

 

On May 21st, Kody Hartlaub Racing returned to their home track, Lincoln Speedway, for the first of two Summer Series events this season.  The always popular Summer Series events for the 358 sprint cars draw competitive fields wherever they are held.

 

At ‘The Fabulous’ Lincoln Speedway as it’s known, 34 cars registered for competition and drew for their starting spot in one of the four heats.  The top five finishers in each 10-lap qualifier would transfer to the A-main, with the top three participating in a redraw for the top twelve starting spots.

 

Hartlaub started inside row two in heat number two.  His No.2 machine was a bit tight, but Hartlaub managed to hang on to finish 3rd and claim a spot in the redraw.  

 

The redraw wasn’t quite as friendly to Hartlaub.  He would have his work cut out for him to get to the front after pulling the 10th starting spot.

 

Hartlaub battled throughout the 25-lap main event, finding a way forward as he has done all season.  On this night he managed a +4, finishing in the 6th position.

 

“We finally got a good draw for our heat race and made the feature redraw, but our redraw wasn’t so good.  What do you do; that’s part of it.“, Hartlaub commented with a grin and a shrug.

 

“We can only worry about the things we can control, and that’s what we’re doing.  We’re running pretty well and I’m continuing to learn and make better decisions behind the wheel.”

 

Up Next

 

Following his 2022 410 sprint debut this weekend, Hartlaub will return to 358 sprint car action with races on June 10th at Williams Grove Speedway and June 11th at Lincoln Speedway.

Henderson Stays Consistent in 2022 With a Pair of Top Fives at Knoxville and Huset’s

Brandon, SD – May 26, 2022

Justin Henderson picked up a pair of top five finishes behind the wheel of the Mike Sandvig Motorsports No. 7 410 Sprint Car last weekend. Henderson finished fourth at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa on Saturday and fifth at Huset’s Speedway on Sunday.

 

Henderson also competed in two nights of racing behind the wheel of his family owned MAX Motorsports No. 83 360 Sprint Car where he finished seventh on Friday at Jackson Motorplex and 23rd at Knoxville as part of a Saturday night doubleheader.

 

“It wasn’t a bad weekend by any means and it shows we are consistent,” said Henderson. “In terms of our region of sprint car racing, we are a top car and we continue to knock off top fives on a regular basis.”

 

Henderson kicked off the weekend on Saturday at Knoxville Raceway where he qualified second quickest among 31 cars in attendance with a fastest lap of 15.265 seconds. He then advanced three positions in a heat race to finish third and locked himself directly into the night’s A-main event.

 

“We’ve got a really good car to start the night at Knoxville and that’s something to be happy about,” he said. “I know I’m always saying it, but the beginning of the night can make or break you and luckily it’s been good to us at Knoxville.”

 

Starting from the inside-second row of the A-main event, Henderson fell back to fourth on the opening lap. Following a yellow flag with 16 laps remaining, Henderson inherited the third position and he remained in the spot for the next 10 laps. With five laps to go, Henderson got bottled up behind a lap car while engaged in a three-wide battle for the runner-up position. The bobble caused him to fall to fourth, where he’d take the checkered flag at the conclusion of the event.

 

“If not for the lapped car there when we caught second it was going to be a wild three-wide battle in the turn,” said Henderson.” It was a lot of fun out there and anytime you can go toe to toe with Brian Brown and the McCarl’s at Knoxville you know you have a good car. We just need to put 20 laps together and we’ll be talking about wins instead of top fives.”

 

The team next headed to Huset’s Speedway on Sunday, where Henderson qualified fifth quickest out of 25 cars in attendance with a fastest lap of 11.137 seconds before advancing one position in a heat race to finish second. He earned a spot in the re-draw as a result and drew the No. 7 pill to claim an inside-fourth row starting spot for the feature.

 

In a race that went non-stop for 25 laps, Henderson was able to rally forward two positions to score a fifth-place finish. The top five was the team’s fifth in eight starts this season.

 

“It was really hard to pass as the track developed a lip early and was fast up top,” he said, “The bottom was ok early, but once it went away, we pretty much just had to ride around and hope for something to happen.”

 

Next up for Henderson and Sandvig will be a Memorial Day weekend tripleheader. They’ll start out at Knoxville Raceway on Saturday, before joining the Northern Outlaw Sprint Association at Huset’s Speedway on Sunday and Monday for two nights. Henderson sits third in the track point standings at Knoxville and first at Huset’s entering the weekend.

 

“I think we are in for a really good weekend and we get an extra show to make some good money,” said Henderson. “For me this sport is all about momentum and I think it’s time we start a nice little streak and pick up some wins.”

 

While the Memorial Day weekend brings about an extra night of racing and the opportunity to make some good money, Henderson is also grateful for the opportunity to celebrate the men and women who have and are serving our country.

 

“I’m really grateful for those who have given their lives to allow us to live freely as American citizens and there’s never enough chances to say thank you to them,” said Henderson.” Not only those who we have lost, but those still serving today. To serve and fight like that takes a different breed of person. I wouldn’t be talking about racing on the weekends without those men and women and hopefully we can grab a win in their honor.”
