Parsons Repeats, Klafka, Hock And The Missle Sweep
By Scott Owen
Clintonville,WI,7/5/06--Eighty racers were on hand do to battle on the
incredibly fast eighth mile GSR Kartway. The racing action was beyond
compare, as some of the fastest lap times ever were turned at the track.
Hanna Daniels, Hunter Parsons, Derek Jahnke, Josh Klafka, Brandon Grendzinski,
brothers Andrew and Alex Hock, Aaron Milavitz, and Steve Arndt brought home
feature wins.
The first feature of the night, the kiddie kart class, proved to be a sign of
the exciting action to come. Brayden Litton looked as though he would
run away with the race. After lap one he had nearly a half track
lead. It was shortly there after that Hanna Daniels began to chip away
at the lead. Then, on lap ten, Hanna Daniels took to the outside of the
track in turn three and made the pass to take over the lead. Daniels
would lead the rest of the way for the win. Litton held on for
second. Kaila Zahn finished in third. Daniels and Litton won the
heat races.
In the box stock feature, pole sitter Carter Kauth led for the first three
laps of the race before being passed by Hunter Parsons. Parsons went on
to lead the rest of the way to win the race. Kauth finished in the
second spot. The heat races were won by Parsons, Kauth, Tyler Olson,
Devon Church, and Brock Saunders.
The stock lite feature proved to be a real barn burner. Kyle Lentz took
the lead on lap one; Kirk Quaintance took over the lead on lap three.
Lentz battled back to the front on lap seven. On lap eight Brett
Swedberg took over the point. Then a caution came out on the next
lap. After numerous attempts to restart the race, the checkered flag
fell due to the time limit. After the race Swedberg was disqaulified for
a rule infraction concerning his tires. This handed the win to Derek
Jahnke, who had started the race in the twelve position. Ryan Hinner
finished in second, Joe Reuter third. Swedberg and Lentz each won two
heat races.
Josh Klafka swept the action in the controlled stock class. He won both
of his heat races and also led the feature from start to finish. Brandon
Reichenberger took the second spot in the race. Mike Moeller also picked
up two heat race wins.
Brandon Grendzinski showed the way in the junior flathead feature
race. After winning a heat race, Grendzinski went on to lead every
lap of the main event. Tanner Wunderlich brought home the second
spot. Parker May finished third and also won a heat race.
In the stock heavy feature Justin Heiting led for the first eight laps of the
race before he was passed by Joe Reuter. Reuter held the lead until lap
eleven when Andrew Hock took the lead over. Hock led the rest of the way
to pick up the win. Reuter had to settle for second. Heiting and
Marcus Yarie won the heat races.
Andrew Hock's younger brother Alex swept the racing action in the pro junior
animal feature. Hock won both of his heat races and led flag to flag in
the feature. Sawyer Effertz finished the race in the runner up
spot. Jesse Colwell and Dakota Quaintance won the other two heat races.
In the animal pro class, it was "The Missile" Aaron Milavitz who
swept the action. Milavitz set a blistering pace in the feature race and
also won both of the divisions heat races. Lacy Yarie finished the race
in second.
Colt Gorges lead the opening lap of the lawnmower feature. On lap two Ty
Rindt took over the lead. Rindt would only hold the top spot for three
more laps though, as Steve Arndt made his way into the lead. Arndt led
the rest of the way to pick up the win. Rindt finished in the second
position.
Racing will continue next Wednesday evening at the GSR Kartway. Hot laps
