Say What!
Where ever he (Shaffer) went I wasn't going there.
If he went on the bottom I was going to the top if he went to the
top I was going to the bottom. That's how you win races and that's
how you can lose them. You lose a lot more than you win but not
tonight, said Donny Schatz in Fargo ND All Star victory lane.

- Skagit Speedway WA)Josh Dewitt won the opening
night of the Bob’s Burgers & Brew 360 Nationals presented by Goodyear.
Dewitt started on the pole and settled in to second as Henry Van Dam took
the initial point. Dewitt kept HVD close and made his move at the start of
lap 7, diving to the inside of turn one, then sliding up in front of Henry
coming out of two to complete the pass. Van Dam returned the favor going
into turn three, executing his own slidejob, but Dewitt countered with a
cross under coming out of turn four, beating HVD to the transponder loop to
secure the lead. From there, Josh gradually opened up his advantage,
cruising home to the checkered flag on lap 30 in the Dirt Inc. #5d Maxim.Race Results 7/31

Sell on the first lap and drove straight to the high cushion. The veteran

SPRINT RACING CALENDAR It is with pride and honor that the late Jesse
Hockett graces the cover of the 2011 Sprint Racing Calendar. Tim Alywin’s
amazing photo of Jessie shows the hard-charging style that “The Rocket,”
took with him whether in a wing or non-wing sprint car. His tragic and early
accidental death is a loss to the racing community. As always, the new
calendar is loaded with sprint car racing’s favorite drivers, tracks and the
flavor of the sport. With photography from all across the county and the
“down under,” standard of photographer Phil Jordison bringing the Aussie
version of sprint racing to the pages of the 2011 calendar, makes this
latest publication another collector’s item! The 2011 Calendar
includes stars such as Steve Kinser, Donny Schatz, Brent Kaeding, and
Jessica Zemken, as well as another look at the Chili Bowl with New Zealand
driver Brad Moser and Kasey Kahne in tight racing action. As always,
the Paul Oxman’s Sprint Racing Calendar contains 12 full months of color
(plus 24 bonus shots) and two extra photos, (including the late Ken Cole’s
hand-colored vintage photo of Gary Bettenhausen from Terre Haute), making
this sprint racing calendar a historical “must have.” The 2011
Calendar will debut at the 2010 Knoxville Nationals, making early Christmas
shopping a breeze. CONTACT PAUL OXMAN PUBLISHING FOR ORDERING INFO 180

has been. Our goal for the 2010 season was to win 100 feature events, it’s
only July and we have already surpassed that. Obviously we couldn’t do it
without all of the great teams that choose to use our products. Here is a
look at the success CSI Shocks has had in recent weeks. Dave Darland has
continued his strong 2010 season picking up his ninth feature win of the
season at Gas City, Indiana. Brooke Tatnell won another feature win this
time in Elko, Minnesota. Coleman Gullick won his first non-wing sprint race
of the year at Lawrenceburg Speedway. Lucas Wolfe broke the track record in
Quebec, Canada this week. The Burdette family, Jeff and KC have both won
dirt late model feature the past few weeks. Jon Stanbrough won the Indiana
Sprint Week King of the Hill sprint race. Johnny Herrera found victory lane
at Knoxville Raceway his first night on our new JRI SB/09 shocks. CSI Shocks
have been winning micro races as well, lots of them. Logan Martin swept the
Non-Wing Nationals at Port City Speedway in Oklahoma last weekend.
Christopher Martin picked up his first ASCS 2 feature of the year a few
weeks ago. In ASCS sprint action Eric Baldaccini leads the Lone Star region,
and Ryan Grubaugh and Doug Lovegrove both sit second in their regions. If

Speedway The World of Outlaws were back for their second of three
appearances at Williams Grove. The pits were packed full of the worlds best
sprint car teams. The nights action began with time trials and saw 48 cars
take their two laps for time. Doug posted an excellent lap that would score
him sixth fastest overall. He would start third in his heat, and after
struggling to stay on the tacky bottom groove, he was shuffled back to sixth
and would have to run the B-main. Doug started on the pole and would have to
endure several attempts at the initial start before finally jumping out to a
sizable lead. But it only took three laps before the caution flew and the
field was doubled up for a World of Outlaws double-file restart. Doug
attempted to block a slide job, but was then passed around the outside by
Californian Jonathan Allard. Doug still looked strong enough to qualify but
while racing with World of Outlaw point leader Joey Saldana, Doug was bit by
the choppy cushion in turns three and four and would end up in the wall.
With a bent frame and moderate front end component damage, Doug and the team
were done for the night. The team was happy with the way they were running
with the strong competition in attendance. The team was planning to race on

- Doug Dodson)Saturday July 17, 2010 - Lincoln
Speedway Saturday night was another regular show at Lincoln Speedway. Doug
started third in his heat and he would finish a close second to Hall of
Famer Fred Rahmer. By finishing well in his heat race, Doug earned the third
starting spot in the feature. By the end of the second lap of the main
event, Doug was out front and building up a sizable lead. He was setting a
fast pace on the high groove of the track. On lap nine, Doug got into lapped
traffic and while making a move on a lapped car, he clipped the wall and
nearly spun. Although Doug was able to regain control of the number 14
sprinter, he lost the lead to Jim Siegel. Doug would lose a few more spots
trying to regain his momentum and he would come home seventh. Although the
team had posted another top ten finish, they felt that had it not been for
the near spin, the Dietz Motorsports team had a good shot at earning a
win.7/21
