Mattrisch And Petrie First Time Winners At Jefferson Speedway
by Larry & Jeanne Starr
August 7, Jefferson WI -- Don Mattrisch of Ft. Atkinson claimed the first
feature win, of his Late Model racing career, in the "Good Karma Cup
50." Starting from the pole, Mattrisch claimed the early lead and
never looked back, guiding the field to the checkered flag. Mattrisch
was well ahead of the melee, on the back stretch on lap 13, when the battle
for 6th triggered a 7 car pileup. Pulling ahead at the restart,
Mattrisch continued his quest for the checkered flag, pulling away from the
field. At the finish it was Mattrisch for the win, followed by Dylan
Schuyler, Jason Thoma, Steve Dobbratz and Chad "Squirt" Stevens.
In International division action Alan Petrie Jr. of Sun Prairie made his first
trip to Victory Lane, following his win, in the 20 lap main event.
Starting inside row 3, Petrie headed toward the point as Bob Taylor pulled to
the early lead. Petrie made his way to the 2nd spot by lap 3, closing
with Taylor. Moving under Taylor, Petrie made the winning pass on lap
6. At the stripe it was Petrie for the win, followed by Scotty Hoeft,
Tim Petrie, Tim Seitz and Tory Adams.
In Sportsman division action Luke Padfield of Jefferson won the, 30 lap, main
event. Starting 8th, Padfield began his battle to the front, as Mike
Heelein claimed the early lead. Heelein held the point for a single lap,
before surrendering it to Brent Gergen. Padfield moved under Heelein, in
his bid for 2nd, on lap 13, claiming the spot on lap 15. Closing with
Gergen, Padfield motored to the lead on lap 19. As they flew past the
checkers it was Padfield in front, followed by Bret Schmidt, Trent Erdman,
Gergen and Mark Deporter.
In Hobby Stock action Jefferson's Rick Kehoe claimed top honors in the 20 lap
feature. Starting outside row 1, Kehoe claimed the lead at the green
flag, showing the way to the checkered. At the line it was Kehoe for the
win, followed by Pete Elgas, Johnny Robinson, Russ Nicholson and Dennis
Schmidt.
In Bandit action John Remsik of Watertown bested the field, in the 18 lap
feature. Starting 14th Remsik headed to the front as Kevin Weaver took
the early lead. Weaver held the point for 7 laps, before losing it to
Tom Bleeker. Bleekers' turn at the point lasted another 7 laps, while Remsik
made his way through traffic. Making his way to 2nd by lap 12, Remsik claimed
the top spot on lap 15. At the stripe it was Remsik for the win,
followed by Bleeker, Rory Padfield, Dan Gosda and Paula Seitz.
