Race Report July 10th
Race # 11 results By John Sainz
July 10, 2010; A rainy morning gave way to a beautiful sunny afternoon, although a little humid, John Diotte and his track crew got the track into good racing condition. Starting a little later than normal, due to track preparation, the Senior Slingshots were first to go out with Fred Cannock taking the win and Kevin Predmore,Jr. winning the Junior Slingshot race. Newcomer Rick Warr took the win in the Senior Rookie race over hard charging Angela Roselli. The Junior Stock class had Danny Hoeffner picking up his sixth win in a row. He is on fire!
Glen Varner picked up his first win of the season in the Lights class after many second place finishes. Good job Glen. Junior 2 class had Colin Belanger winning ,but did not get finishing order in time for this report. Will try to update later. Senior Stock had John Sainz picking up his second win, but in the second heat race Wayne Utter tagged the turn two wall pretty hard and did not make the feature. Spoke with him afterwards and he was banged up, but OK. Hope to see Wayne back racing soon. Exciting Heavys race saw Vito Iannarella,Jr take the win on a last lap restart over Roger Belanger in a very close finish. Anthony Wood picked up his first win at Oakland Valley Speedway in the Junior Sportsman Champ class. Great job by Anthony. The last feature of the night was in the World Formula Modified karts with Tommy Kosch taking the win there. Great job by all the drivers. We have seven more races in a row before the next day off so be ready for some of the best racing action in the area. See you next week.

Some Sad News…
…on Friday the 9th, my parents, John & JoAnn, had to make the very difficult decision to put their dog, Uno, to sleep. After surgery to replace his knee, which resulted in an infection that ended up spreading throughout his body, it became apparent that the best thing to do for Uno was to put him down. The whole family is heartbroken and Uno will definitely be missed!

Oakland Valley Speedway Race Report #10
Race # 10 results By John Sainz
June 26, 2010; With the threat of rain throughout the evening, we were able to complete all of our races, with the rain starting after completion of the events. The nights racing started off with Tyler Pirone picking up his third win of the season and Brendan Finley picking up his first win in the Junior Slingshot class. The Junior Stock class had Danny Hoeffner picking up his fifth win in the first ten races. The Junior Stock class was one of the fastest classes of the night with the top six running high thirteen to low fourteen second laps. Close finish at the end with Stephen Reynolds only one tenth of a second behind Danny. Paulie Tigue Jr. picked up his ninth win in ten races in the Junior Sportsman Champ class and with Anthony Wood improving every time out, he may be challenging Paulie soon.Also Colin Belanger picked up his seventh win in Junior 2 class, good job by those two drivers. In the Heavys class,Jeremy Todd picked up his third win in a row over Roger Belanger. Jeremy seems to have his kart dialed in just right. In the Lights class, current points leader Corey Wood picked up his first win of the year in a tight battle with Stephanie and Steven Gully. Very good race. Great job by all the racers and track officials. The track will be closed next weekend, so we hope you will be there on July 10 for the next race. Have a safe and happy Fourth of July.

Race Report – June 19th
June 19, 2010; After another week off racing resumed at Oakland Valley Speedway with a Saturday Night Thunder Race for the Lights Class with Ryan Edwards pulling away to win by a good margin. Strong run by Edwards. Also there was a one lap elimination shootout race, sponsored by Jay’s Pools, for the top 5 in points for the Lights class. Top prize was taken by Glen Varner. Lots of great action, with a very intense Heavys race, going three wide into the corners at times, Jeremy Todd took the win in that race. One race was made up from June 5 in the Senior Rookie class with Angela Roselli taking the win, and then again winning the Sr. Rookie race for tonight also. Fred Cannock picked up the win in the Senior Slingshot race by over three seconds. Great job by the track officials, who always try to be fair with everyone and call it like they see it. It’s a tough job. Don’t forget that JK Performance has rental karts available,so come on out and give kart racing a try. You will get hooked on it! See you next week at the track. Also there will be practice on Friday night June 25 from 5 to 9pm.
