Ovadal Victorious At Jefferson Speedway
by Larry & Jeanne Starr
June 12, Jefferson WI - John Ovadal Jr. of Watertown came from a 10th place
start to claim top honors in the "Papa Murphy's 50." At the
green flag Steve Dobbratz grabbed the early lead, guiding the way for 5 laps
before losing the point to Chad "Squirt" Stevens. Stevens led
the way to lap 45, as Ovadal worked his way through traffic. Closing
with Stevens, on lap 37, Ovadal launched his bid for the lead, with Ovadal
edging ahead on lap 46. Stevens made a strong come back bid, but it was
cut short, on lap 48, by a caution flag, for a spin in the middle of the
field. At the stripe it was Ovadal, by a slim margin, over Stevens,
followed by Jason Erickson, Randy Breunig and Dobbratz.
In International action Scotty Hoeft of Watertown turned a 9th place start
into a feature win, in the 20 lap main event. It was Keith Peck out in
front, at the green flag, only to turn the point over to Tim Seitz on the
third circuit. By lap 7, Hoeft had caught the leaders, entering a 3-way
battle with Seitz and Aaron Rude. Hoeft motored under Seitz on lap 9,
guiding the way to the checkers. At the finish it was Hoeft for the win,
followed by Rude, Steve Allman, Seitz and Joe Cross.
Noel Ramge notched the win, in the 30 lap Sportsman division feature.
Starting inside row 5, Ramge headed toward the front, as Mark English claimed
the early lead. English surrendered the point to Dan Schmidt on lap 8,
with Bobby Stough and Ramge in tow, for 2nd and 3rd. Stough relieved
Schmidt at the point on lap 13, holding off Ramge for 8 laps. On lap 21,
Ramge motored under Stough for the top spot, guiding the field to the
checkers. At the finish it was Ramge followed by Bret Schmidt, Mark
Deporter, Stough and Ryan Goldade.
In Hobby Stock Action Terry Wangsness logged another feature win.
Starting from the inside of row 7, Wangsness started his journey to the
checkered, as Dennis Schmidt jumped to the early lead. Schmidt lost the
point to Bret Carson on lap 12. Carson had trouble on lap 12, handing
the point to Jim Tate Jr. Tate led the way for 5 laps before being
overtaken by Wangsness. Taking the lead on lap 18 Wangsness led the
field at the finish, followed by Tate, Schmidt, Eaan Carson and Dennis Smith.
In Bandit action Dan "Big Tiny" Gosda of Sun Prairie scored his
first feature win, in the 18 lap main event. Starting 9th, Gosda headed
to the point, as Tina Remsik drove to the early lead. Remsik surrendered
the point to Rory Padfield, on lap 3, with Gosda up to third. Gosda made
his way past Remsik by lap 8, closing with Padfield. On lap 15 Gosda
moved to the inside, powering past Padfield for the top spot. At the
finish it was Gosda, followed by Padfield, Allen Petrie, Troy Yohn and Remsik.
