COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL August 23, 2017 Speedway Recap By Cottage Grove Speedway Fast Friday and Logger’s Cup Race Recap August 11th was another FREE Fast Friday at the Speedway and the fans got way more than their money’s worth for this one! Mohawk Metal IMCA Modifi eds and Late Models fi lled the pits for a quick 2 class night of action John Campos set quick time in the Mohawk Metal Modifi eds with a 14.388 and Casey Vitale was the Late Model quick timer with a 12.926! James Heating & Air Conditioning Heat Race wins went to Collen Winebarger, Aaron Sheelar, and Grey Ferrando in the Modifi ed class and Joey Tanner, Bryan Norton, and Steve Moore picked up the Late Model heat race wins. Dot’s Trophy Shop Trophy Dash trophies were taken home by Grey Ferrando and Trent Elliott. The Mohawk Metal Modifi ed B Main was up next and had a lot of fast cars, anyone not fi nishing in the top 5 in James Heating & Air Conditioning Heat Races would have to run the B Main and only the top 5 would make the A. John Campos made an impressive run from the back to easily win the B Main followed by Gus Cooper, Brian Thompson, Jake Mayden, and Zach Fettinger who would all go to the show. A 6-car invert put the Heat Winners starting 4th thru 6th and Mike Peters and Thomas Hun- ziker shared the front row, Hunziker got the start and led until lap 6 when Joey Tanner got by him and never looked back leading all the way to the checkered fl ag. Collen Winebarger made an im- pressive run from last to 2nd and was challenging Tanner for the lead when his car died in turn 4 and sent him to the pits early. Following Tanner to the checkers was Casey Vitale, Trent Elliott, Thomas Hunziker, and Kye Frick. 20 of the fastest Modifi eds in the Northwest en- tered the track for the fi nal race of the night led by Greg McDonald & Aaron Sheelar. Sheelar led the fi eld by lap 1 and looked as tho he was on his way to another win but Jesse Williamson had oth- er plans and on lap 19 took over the lead and add- ed another win to his impressive resume. Sheelar ended up 2nd, Eric Ashley 3rd, Bricen James 4th and Collen Winebarger rounded out the top 5. The dust from an exciting night of racing had barely settled and drivers were back for night number 2. Joining the Mohawk Metal IMCA Modifi eds, and Late Models were the Todd’s Auto Body Sprints and the PHRA Dwarf Cars for the 2017 edition of the Logger’s Cup! 30 Mohawk Metal IMCA Modifi eds, 25 Late Models, 18 Todd’s Auto Body Sprints, and 21 PHRA Dwarf Cars made the trip to Cottage Grove Speedway for a very full night of racing! There would be only 1 Dot’s Trophy Shop dash ran and the fi nish would determine the Late Mod- el lineup. Trevor Glaser and Joey Tanner drew the front row and paced the fi eld to the green fl ag where Glaser got our front and led Tanner all 6 laps to the fi nish. Glaser and Tanner were followed by Collen Winebarger, Jimmy Whisler, Steve Moore, and Trent Elliott. That fi nish would 3B be the starting lineup for the nights 40 lap main event. There was only 1 more chance for Mohawk Metal Modifi ed and Late Model drivers to make it into the show and that was thru the B Mains. Nick Bessette, Mark Carrell, Jimmy Schram, and Greg McDonald would all transfer into the Modifi ed A and Blaine Taylor, David Schmidt, Troy Norton, and Ryan Ronning would get those last 4 precious Late Model main starting spots. Next up was the Mohawk Metal IMCA Modi- fi ed Main Event and with a 12-car point invert it was a great show! Aaron Sheelar and Gus Cooper shared the front row and Sheelar was off and run- ning, Brian Thompson quickly grabbed 2nd place and Jimmy Whisler moved to 3rd. Jesse William- son and Collen Winebarger quickly made it to the front from a 12th and 13th place start. Williamson took over the lead with Winebarger hot on his tail as the leaders moved quickly thru the lapped cars. A fi nal attempt to get to Williamson sent Wine- barger spinning as the cars took the checkers it would be Williamson winning again over Jake Mayden, John Campos, Aaron Sheelar, and Craig Hanson. The fi nal race of the night was the famed Log- ger’s Cup and 20 Late Models lined the front stretch wall all ready to win that $2000.00 pay- day! Joey Tanner got the early lead while Trevor Glaser and Collen Winebarger followed closely behind. The front runners worked thru slower cars all while keeping their eye on the #111 of Tanner and hoping to get the chance to pass him. That chance would never come as Tanner led all 40 laps of the Logger’s Cup to become the 3rd different winner since the race came back to Cottage Grove in 2015. Tanner was followed by Winebarger, Glaser, Trent Elliott, and Thomas Hunziker.
