TREMONT AND MARSHALL SPLIT DOUBLE HEADER

WEST LEBANON, NY- Kenny Tremont won the delayed 30-lap

feature from last week. Eddie Marshall picked up his

first win of the season in the second 30-lap feature.

Bobby Hackel came home with the 20-lap sportsman win.

Todd Goldstein was the winner in the Street Stocks.

The first modified feature saw a massive pileup

on the intial green flag. The front two cars got

together and the field had nowhere to go. Most of the

field was involved, including Brett Hearn. Many of the

drivers were able to continue. Glenn Grossjung would

take the lead on the restart. Hearn was able to continue

after going pitside for repairs. He was up to fifth by

lap one. A restart on lap four allowed Hearn to take

third. Meanwhile, Grossjung continued to lead up front

with Donnie Ackner second. Tremont would grab the lead

going into turn three on a lap four restart. Hearn was

up to second by lap five. Dickie Larkin moved up to

fifth by lap six. Tremont and Hearn would breakaway

from the pack. Tremont would run into lapped traffic

by lap nine. The field was slowed by yellow on lap

eleven. Ackner would take third and Larkin would take

fourth on the restart. Larkin would grab third after a

lap 14 restart. Tremont would hold only a three car

advantage over Hearn on lap 16. He would open up to a

ten car length lead by lap 20. A yellow on lap 21

bunched up the field once again. Hearn would try and

pass Tremont, but could not prevail. Tremont was able

to hold off Hearn for the remainder of the event and

came home with his second win of the year. Hearn came

home second, Larkin third, Ackner fourth, and Guy

Sheldon fifth.

The second modified feature started out quite

the same as the first. A pileup occured in turn one on

the intial green. There were not as many cars involved

though. Eddie Marshall rocketed out to the lead early,

with Donnie Corellis in close pursuit. Hearn was up to

seventh by lap one, after starting 15th. Mike Benson and

Rich Ricci would battle for the fifth spot on lap three.

Hearn was up to sixth by lap three as well. Marshall

looked like the man to beat, opening up almost a half

straightaway lead by lap four. Hearn would battle Garry

Waters for the fourth spot on lap six. Hearn would take

it from Waters on lap nine. Marshall would start to run

into some slower cars by lap nine as he set a torrid

pace out front. He would encounter heavy traffic on lap

11. Hearn would grab third on lap 11. Hearn would then

try to pass the second place car of Corellis. He would

complete the pass on lap 15. Sheldon had another good

run going, he was up to fifth by lap 17.

Hearn would see his shot of winning deflate on

lap 18, as his right rear tire went flat. Mike Benson

and Mike King would battle for fourth on lap 19. A

yellow on lap 20 allowed Corellis to catch up to

Marshall. Corellis would try to pass Marshall on the

restart, but could not make the pass. Chris Moore had a

good run going. He was involved in an early race

incident and had worked his way back to fifth by lap 22.

Sheldon had worked his way up to third and would battle

Corellis for second.

Moore would take fourth on lap 24 and would run

the rest of the race trying to get by Sheldon. Marshall

continued to dominate up front and cruised home for his

first win of the season. The win was worth an extra

three thousand dollars for Marshall. Corellis finished

second, Sheldon third, Moore fourth and Benson fifth.

Denny Young was the early race leader in the

20-lap sportsman feature. Bobby Hackel was up to second

early on also. Chris Kokosa would take fifth by lap two.

Hackel would take the lead on a lap three restart. Jeff

Cassidy would get turned around while running fourth,

bringing out a caution. Kokosa would take second on the

restart. George Marcus was up to fifth on lap 11. Art

Collins would get some pressure from Bobby Chalmers for

the third spot on lap 12.

Hackel would have a ten car advantage by lap 13.

Roy Bridge and Danny Ody would battle for seventh on lap

14. Bridge would take the spot. Hackel would run into

some traffic by lap 15, this allowed Kokosa to close

ground. Marcus would grab fourth on a lap 17 restart.

Kokosa would try and battle Hackel for the lead, but

Hackel was strong to the challenge. Colins was third,

Marcus fourth, and Chalmers fifth.

Todd Golstein would grab the lead on lap seven

on the 20-lap street stock feature and never look back.

Rich Crane was up to second by lap nine. Jim Lagenback

was seventh, Adam Haas was eighth, and Lorne Browe was

ninth by lap nine. Crane and Ed Bachand would run for

second on lap ten.

Lagenback was up to fifth by lap 13. Meanwhile

Goldstein continued to lead up front. Lagenback and

Crane would run for fourth. Goldstein would open a half

straightaway adavantage by lap 18. Lagenback would break

on the final lap as Goldstein came home with the win.

This was the final night of points for the 1997

season. Brett Hearn was the modified champion. George

Marcus was the sportsman champ. The street stocks still

have several weeks remaining in the season. The next

race will be the big Kings 200 weekend on Sept 6th and

7th.
