HENDRICKSON, RADD AND ZEINER TAKE EAST WINDSOR SEASON FINALE WINS -
SUNDAY RACE CANCELED - NEXT EVENT APRIL, 2000
EAST WINDSOR, N.J. ~ A 1999 racing season marked by record heat and humidity, a severe drought and late-season flooding closed out on Friday night at the East Windsor Speedway. Wade Hendrickson of Lawrenceville was the last East Windsor Modified winner of the century, while Edison's Donny Radd was the Sportsman victor and Jack Zeiner of Nazareth, Pa. was the top street Stock driver.
Taking the lead in the early going, Hendrickson was the class of the field in the Modified race. Hendrickson stretched a strong lead to the finish, while newly crowned champion Kenny Brightbill of Sinking Spring, Pa. recovered from an early tangle for second. Larry McVey was third, while Doug Hoffman and Doug Manmiller completed the
top five.
Donny Radd was the best of 45 Sportsman entries as he won the season ending 20-lap feature race. Gary Hager chased Radd to the finish, while Stan Ploski of Ringoes was third. Buck Ward of Robbinsville and newly crowned champ Brian Godown of Ringoes were fourth and fifth.
Jack Zeiner will be remembered as the final East Windsor Street Stock main event winner of the century with his checker flag in Friday's 15-lapper. Larry Bubeck was forced to settle for second, while Wayne Hansen was third. Carol Whitehouse and Len Riley were fourth and fifth.
With the Sunday, September 26, racing card canceled, the next event on the East Windsor Speedway slate will be the late-winter Awards Ceremony and Rules Meeting. Plans are already in gear of the 2000 season opener on the first Friday night of April.
