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.
