Czarapata Scores First Season Win At Powercom Park
by Dennis Thompson
June 25, 2005

Brandon Czarapata of Kaukauna picked up his first win of the season in the 20-lap Shaver Builders & Home Improvement Modified A-Main at The Raceway at Powercom Park in Beaver Dam, WI on Saturday night. 

John Stanton of Reeseville grabbed the lead at the start of the event. Czarapata quickly moved up from the third row and began to challenge for the lead. The first caution of the event occurred on lap two for an incident involving Chris Piquette of Random Lake and Marc Caswell of West Allis. Czarapata wasted little time after the restart as he took command of the top spot on lap three. On the first lap of the restart the red flag halted the race when Dan Tafelski of West Allis rolled his ride on the back chute. Another car had trouble exiting turn two and as a number of cars tried to avoid the slowed car, Tafelski was not as fortunate as the others and ended up going for the wild ride. Once back under green, Brian Crapser of Brookfield was on the move and was able to get by Czarapata on lap six. Crapser ran out in front until lap thirteen when he crashed in turn three. Czarapata inherited the lead back and this time he stayed out in front the rest of the way and earn the trip to victory lane. Andy Voigt of Beaver Dam moved up from the fifth row to finish in second. Rick Strommen of Beaver Dam had his best finish of the season by taking third. Steve Mueller of Mukwonago picked his way up through traffic to finish in fourth. Eddie Lemay Jr. of Milwaukee came from the eighth row to place fifth and take over the lead in the point standings. 

Roger Lee of Wind Lake cruised to his third win of the season when he captured the 20-lap Northwoods Paper Converting Grand Nationals A-Main. Dan Schumacher of Milwaukee ran near the front throughout the event to finish in second. Don Sorce Jr. of West Allis moved up from the fifth row to cross the line in third. Nathan Persha of Iron Ridge drove to fourth. Dave Gorny of West Allis was fifth.

The Dodge Central Credit Union Stocks 20-lap A-Main proved to be one of the most exciting events of the evening. Jeff Link of Beaver Dam led for the first three laps before giving way to Mike Murray of Beaver Dam. With Murray out in front, Chuck Hummelmeier of Friesland moved up and began to pressure Murray for the lead. The two engaged in a fierce battle with Murray running the high groove while Hummelmeier tried to get by on the inside. After repeatedly trying to get by Murray, Hummelmeier was able to nose ahead of Murray on lap sixteen. Murray came back strong and regained the lead one lap later. That only lasted one lap as Hummelmeier once again forged out front on lap eighteen. This time Hummelmeier would stay out in front and go onto record his first win of the season. Hummelmeier is the fifth different winner in the five events run so far this season for the division. Jasper Drengler of Shawano followed Hummeleier and Murray across the line to take third. Matt Bedker of Beaver Dam drove to fourth. Dan Troyan of Menomonee Falls was fifth.

George Giesen of Neenah grabbed the lead at the start of the Gibbsville Cheese Wisconsin Legends Racing Dirt Series 20-lap A-Main. However, Joel Wyttenbach charged from his fifth row starting position to take over the lead on lap two. The first caution of the event came out for a spin by Steve Boelter of Verona in turn two. Back under green, Aaron Rake of Beaver Dam, who had started alongside Wyttenbach in the fifth row, was on the move and eventually won the battle with Warren Ropp of Kalona, IA to take over second. Rake then reeled in Wyttenbach and began to challenge for the lead. Rake was able to run close behind Wyttenbach but could not pull off a move to take over the top spot. With only one lap remaining, Dan Neuman of Beaver Dam and Phil Van Tatenhove of Sheboygan Falls tangled in turn three to bring out the caution and set up the one lap dash to the finish. Wyttenbach led the field down into turn one on the restart but Rake dove to the inside and the two raced it out side by side. As the checkered flag waved, it was Rake across the line first to score his second win of the season. Warren Ropp followed Rake and Wyttenbach across the line to take third. Keith Moline of Cedar Rapids, IA drove to fourth ahead of Kevin Brill of Oostburg. 

Jon Schultz of Belleville came from far back in the pack to race to victory in the 20-lap Wally’s Auto Dirt Devil A-Main. Tim Draheim of Beaver Dam finished a close second. Schultz and Draheim are now tied for the lead in the division point standings. Josh Schmitt of Juneau also moved up well to finish in third. Aaron Stolp of Milwaukee was fourth. Dustin Schwandt of Ripon came across the line in fifth. Nick Firari of Reeseville rolled his ride in turn two on lap seven.
