Beyer Gets The Win At 141 April Enduro
Blustery winds and cool temperatures didn’t chill the spirits of the
enthusiastic crowd of fans on hand for the annual 141 Speedway Tisler Salvage
"April Fools" enduro race on Saturday in Francis Creek.
Edward Day led the field of nearly ninety cars to the green flag and led the
first couple of laps. He was overtaken quickly by track champ David Beyer of
Manitowoc driving a Chevrolet.
Beyer would dominate the entire race with the only viable challenge coming
from second place finisher Terry Kust who finished one lap down from the
leader but battled for the duration in an attempt to pass him and try to get
the lap back.
Try as he might, Kust’s Ford was just not up to the challenge. He did hold
off A charging Jason Czarapata of Pulaski who made a late race surge and
finished only 5 seconds behind Kust for third.
Day and New’s Years day winner Todd Welsing were not so fortunate succumbing
early on to mechanical difficulties but, other than a scary crash into the
turn two wall by Kathy Ware who was bruised and shaken but otherwise alright,
the entire three hundred lap race was basically without incident.
Saturday night racing returns to 141 Speedway later this month on April 29th
with the "Spring Fling" kickoff for the all five divisions (Hobby,
Mini, Super, Mid-American Stock Car and Sport 4). New this year is a five
o’clock start time for time trials with racing getting underway at 7pm as
usual.
After the "Spring Fling", 141 will close for three weeks opening for
the summer on Memorial Day weekend with a super double-header. Saturday night
will be the regular race program with all five regular divisions on hand and
Sunday another three hundred lap enduro race this time under the lights with a
start time of 7pm!
