TBARA – 17 cars

CFSS – 19 cars

TBARA Winner – His Holiness Dave Steele

CFSS Winner – “The Flying Fireman” Scott Adema (We’re just not comfortable saying “Scotty 2 Hotty” on a regular basis.) Sorry Scott.

As expected the TBARA car count was down and the CFSS car count was up.

CFSS Quick Recap: Over at Citrus County, heat wins went to Brian Maddox, Scott Adema and Keith “I’m No One’s” Butler. For the feature, Scott Adema lined up on point and was never caught.The Shane Miller cars looked good as did Keith Butler and Mickey Kempgens, both of whom had their progress interrupted by spins/altercations.

TBARA Quick Recap: Down at Desoto Speedway, heat wins went to points protagonists Travelin’ Troy DeCaire and His Holiness Dave Steele. The feature got off to a rough start with some cars ending their night on the spot – Dakota Stephens, Todd Schmidt and Johnny Gilbertson. Then on the second restart Ben Fritz night came to a quick end – sucks for Ben because he just came back out after getting his engine updated. Bo Hartley took the early lead but broke a panhard bar bolt unfortunately. His Holiness Dave Steele then decimated the field, lapping all the way up to second place.

CFSS Quick Notes – Joey “The Ace” Aguilar’s night was a short one due to mechanical issues, sending him spinning into the infield. FSCF.com favorite “Double G” Gary Gimmler put in a fine workman drive to come home fourth – followed by friend of the website Amanda Ferguson. Given the depth of the field, that’s an excellent result for young Amanda. Apparently Scott Adema wants to get in the fight for “hottest driver in the state” with his second win in a row.

TBARA Quick Notes – The start of this race brings back to mind the day that CART ran opposite the “new” IRL and had that huge crash at the start of the race. The TBARA was already down on cars (no Terry DeCaire entry either) and the wrecks didn’t help. Without Travelin’ Troy’s car staying under him (same for Bo Hartley) it was all over. Still – give a shout out to Todd Schmidt for a fine second place heat run. And also give a shout out to Jim Alvis, Sr. to come home third. Good to see him rebound from the mess at the Panhandle races.
