Troy Wondra Wins MSA Feature At MHR
Sunday, June 15, 2003
by Jay Ohman
Unity, WI - Troy Wondra drove off with another Midwest
Sprintcar Association feature win Sunday June 15th at Monster Hall Raceway.
Doug Schenck moved into the season points lead holding a narrow
margin.
Lloyd Dykstra jumped out to the lead from the front row with
Kenjay Fiedler in hot pursuit with the pair putting some distance on
the field. A fourth lap caution erased the lead and with the return
to action Wondra bided his time slipping past both Fiedler and Dykstra
a couple laps later. While Wondra's car improved, Fiedler's faded a
bit as first Leroy Ostrowski then K.J. Skelton advanced.
After the
race, an elated Wondra said "the car really hooked up for me, I started
hunting for traction and found the car was sticking anywhere on the track".
Wondra would go on to claim the checker in the 20 lap race, Dykstra followed
in second and Ostrowski third. Skelton and Schenck both advanced well to
round out the top five.
Fiedler held on to the sixth spot and Al Schlafer
finished seventh. Lance Fassbender and Scott Conger both had impressive runs
advancing seven spots to finish eighth and ninth. Michael Emme recovered
from an opening lap spin returning to the ten. Andy Hunt finished 11th,
and rookie Jeff Harder advanced nine spots to claim the KSE Hard
Charger award finishing 12th.
In the Triton Trailers B-Main, Lance
Fassbender and Kenjay Fiedler went wheel to wheel for several laps before
Fassbender was able to edge out the lead over Fiedler. A mid race red flag
was brought out for Mark Wernes Jr. and Chris Wiser, Wiser was tipped over
onto his wing however repairs were made in time for Wiser to return to the
action. Fassbender would notch the win, Fiedler followed in second.
Rounding out the top seven transferring were Andy Hunt, T.J. Luedke, Jeff
Becker, Jeff Harder and Chris Wiser.
In the Hepfner Race Products
first heat, K.J. Skelton darted out to first lead to handily take the
checkers, David O'Neal followed in second. The second heat sponsored by JB
Enterprises had Keith Olejnik jumping out from the front row to take the win
and holding off the hard advances of Al Schlafer.
The MPD third heat
was a wild opening lap battle as Danny Schalfer and Troy Wondra swapped the
lead several times, Schlafer held on for the win with Michael Emme entering
the fray and finishing second. The Wisconsin PC Fast Time Award went to Doug
Schenck with a fast lap of 14.004.
The next appearance for the MSA will
be at Hales Corners Speedway, Franklin, in a co-appearance with the Badger
Midget Auto Racing Association on Friday June 28th. For all of the latest
