10/8/2005 Notes: Jason "The Hand" Mills survived an opening lap pileup that put four drivers to the rear of the field and then led all fifty laps in the Galletta's #6 en route to his first career win at Galletta's Speedway. Chris "The Chrusher" was 2nd (in his #8) and a hard-charging Matt Stevens (in his #3) settled for third. Young Eddie Scruton (in his #12 kart) impressed and showed vast improvement by racing in third for a large chunk of the race (holding off Matt and nearly passing Chris before a caution and a spinout in caution prevented the pass), but finished behind The Ogre. First time drivers, The Vanvorst brothers, had some comedic accidents that were caught on videotape. Josh Schute flipped violently on the last lap, enabling his friend Rob Jimenez to beat him to the line.
10/16/2005 Notes:
Wesley James "TrOgre" Stevens won his first race in around two years
in a cold and wet October race. Ogre inherited the lead when
pole-sitter Josh Schute had to stop the Galletta's #7 after it began
making vibration noises, which forced Josh to hop into the
Galletta's #6. Young Eddie Scruton (in his #12 kart) held a strong
second behind Ogre for many laps, even challenging him a few times
until Eddie's motor began sputtering and he was forced to retire.
Gary Miller and Chris "The Chrusher" held off hot-shoes Matt Stevens
(in his #3) for almost the entire race until Mattie-Jo snuck by
Chris on the outside as Chris showed a wheel to Gary. Then, one lap
later Gary hit a rut and spun out with only a few laps remaining.
Chris challenged Matt while Matt challenged Ogre for the remainder
of the race but the track was too slick for any solid passing
opportunities.
Although Matt and Chris are cemented in 1st and 2nd in the 2005 Season Points-Per-Race standings, the battle is for the other money-spots; places 3-5. Gary scored enough 2nd/3rd place points to pass Rob Jimenez for third place overall (Rob was suffering from soreness due to his girlfriend Amanda crushing him that may have slowed his racing). The race is so close between places 3 through 7, that every single race can change the order significantly, and the drivers that do not show for every race usually wind up losing valuable positioning, especially in these late-season 50-lappers and wetter passing conditions. Gary, Rob, Jason and even Ogre have benefited greatly from Ed's lack of post-Classic visits and the banishment of 5.5+hp motors. All three Fall events are videotaped races (2-angles: Middle track and Tower) and available on DVD. Just call of write me anytime. $5 per DVD (each contains 1-3 hours of footage). Plus, don't forget at the end of every race season, Summer & Fall points are tallied into the ALL-TIME GALLETTA'S BACKYARD SPEEDWAY POINT STANDINGS!
That wraps up the 2005 season, a large and fun
one, with some excellent new competitors joining the club.
Unfortunately, we also lost a handful of competitive racers because
they could not agree to use the same motors that the rest of us
used. Maybe someday they'll come back and race our type motors or
have a second motor class. Either way, they would be welcomed back.
Regardless, get ready for an even bigger season, as the Oswego
Speedway is building a dirt track. Gary Miller tested it out the 1st
day of operation in September during Classic Weekend (while we
watched from the crowd), and although it seems to be like it is
going to be very small, our class - as long as we are allowed our
own right-turn, gas stock flathead motor class - will likely give it
a shot when it opens for business. Get ready for...
2006!
Videotaped race. DVDs are now available for every videotaped event. Please contact Chris Stevens via email for ordering/buying a DVD that will contain anywhere from 1-4 races per disc. (2-angles: Middle track and Tower).
