Lonnie Saumier, Jr. set fast time for the Auto City Super Stocks with a 15.71, while defending track champion Robbie Johnson won the heat race. There weren’t many, but they were mighty as they started the 30-lap feature. David McManus jumped out in front and held the lead until a restart on lap 17. Kyle Hayden took over the top spot but the field tightened, 4 cars had an opportunity to win the race. Hayden continued to lead, but on the last lap McManus moved to the inside. The “Juice” made the pass on the inside of turn 3 and finished just ahead of Hayden for the win. Rounding out the top 5 were Johnson, Saumier and Andrew Wyatt.

Travis Eddy paced qualifying in the Modified division with a 16.22. Claude Plante, Jr. and Joey Morrisette took the heat races. A first lap crash in the 30-lap feature took out six cars, including fast qualifier Eddy. Rick Weicorek jumped out in front on the restart and held it until lap 10. Then Greg Fullerton took over and the Australian native stayed ahead until lap 26 when Jordan Pruitt moved ahead and won his first-ever feature at Auto City. Fullerton was second followed by Dave Christensen, Weicorek and Morrisette.

On the ¼ mile, Chris Stearns set quickly for the second straight week in the Tiger Auto Salvage Street Stocks with a 14.83. Rob Kern and Jim Miller Jr. took heat race wins. 14-year-old Nate Rowe jumped in front in the 30-lap feature, and led the first 3 laps. Kern took the lead and stayed ahead until lap 7 when Stearns came from the rear to take over the lead. The “Tater” pulled away from the field looking like he was going to run away, but on lap 19 Stearns suffered a flat left front tire, sending him to pits for repairs. That gave the lead to Miller, who stayed ahead to take the victory. Julian Fluty finished second followed by R.J. Blandino, Rick Osborn, Jr. and Stearns.

Lonnie Saumier Jr. also had fast time in the Mt. Morris-Clio Pure Stock division with a 16.40. Gerald Persails, Jr. and Craig Bastein took heat race honors. It was a wild 25-lap feature as Nick Johnston and Andrew Burton ran side-by-side for the first 10 laps. Burton finally got the advantage and held the lead until lap 20, when Saumier took over. Two laps later Burton took the lead back, but the “Buzzsaw” was not to be denied, as Saumier took the lead with just 2 laps to go and took the win. Burton held on to second followed by Scott Beach, Jeff Roethlisberger and Bastien.

Gerald Persails, Jr. led the first lap of the Bob Kern’s Auto Repair Krazy 8 feature, but pulled into the infield after just one lap. That gave the lead to Andrew Burton who stayed ahead for the victory. Chad Lamson came through the field to take second followed by Rob Kern, Chris Wilbur and Jeremy Johnson.

David McManus started the night with fast time in the Auto City Super Stocks with a 15.47, while Lonnie Saumier Jr. won the heat race. Wayne Howe took the early lead in the 30-lap feature. Howe held the top spot until lap 15 when Kyle Hayden got by him. “The Professor” stayed on top until lap 21 when Robbie Johnson passed him on the inside of turn 4. The defending track champ pulled away to take the first feature of the season. McManus took second followed by Hayden, Saumier and Howe.

Heat race winners were Claude Plante, Jr. and Donny Matteson, Jr. Dave Christensen started on the pole of the 30-lap feature and jumped out in front. “The Weiner” held off some strong challenges and celebrated his birthday leading flag-to-flag to take the victory. Jordan Pruitt finished second followed by Travis Eddy, Luberda and Joey Morrisette.

The Tiger Auto Salvage Street Stocks began their first night on Hoosier racing slicks, and the drivers took to them early. The track record was broken 7 times during qualifying, as Chris Stearns wound up on top with a scorching lap of 14.59. Heat races went to Rob Kern and Jim Severn. Kern took the early lead in the 30-lap feature and held it for the first 3 laps. R.J. Blandino took over the point and has his running on rails as he pulled away from the field. A caution flag came out on lap 12, erasing his lead. On the restart Severn flew past on the outside. Stearns tried to get by on the inside, but Severn held him off for the win. Rounding out the top 5 were Jim Miller Jr., Blandino and Julian Fluty.

The track record fell in the Morris-Clio Herald Pure Stocks as well, as defending track champion Lonnie Saumier, Jr. shattered it with a 16.35. Craig Bastien and Cam Hiltz were heat race winners. Jeff Stinson jumped ahead in the 25-lap feature and held the lead for the first 3 laps. Bastien took over the top spot and battle went on between him, Hiltz and Saumier. Bastien was up to the task and he led the rest off for the win. LJ was second followed by Hiltz, Andrew Burton and Jeff Rothisberger.

Gerald Persails, Jr. started on the pole in the Bob Kern’s Auto Repair Krazy-8’s. Three laps later Chad Lamson took the lead and the defending champ pulled away and took the victory. Persails was second followed by Andrew Burton, Lonnie Saumier, Jr. and Jeremy Johnson.
