STUART SPEEDWAY HONORS BRAD VAN SCOY

by DAVID WILKINSON

Sunday night's races at the Stuart Speedway were dedicated to Brad Van Scoy
who died tragically in an automobile accident earlier in the week.  Brad, son
of Bob and Dee Van Scoy, was a 16-year Perry High School student beginning
his racing career in IMCA hobby stocks.  His father, a former racer, drove
Brad's car during a special set of hot laps, during the national anthem, and
as a pace car for all features.

The racing was fast, tough, and dusty.   Joe College was running well as he
won his heats in his IMCA modified and IMCA stock car, but he won only the
modified feature.  After a big pileup at the start of the modified feature,
Paul Chumos placed his car in the lead on the restart.  It took College only
three laps to pass Chumos and he stayed in front for the remainder of the
race.  Ron Little moved into second on lap seven of the 20-lap feature and
chased College to the checkered.  Chumos finished third and Terry Pruitt
fourth.

In the IMCA stock car feature, David Cirksena led all 15 laps for the
victory.  Tim Baker finished second, Steve Jackson third, and Marshall Allen
fourth.

Mark Chance led all 12 laps of the first IMCA hobby stock feature.    Jimmie
Gustin, who banged his car hard off the front wall early in the race,
challenged Chance in the final laps but had to settle for second.  Adam Hagen
finished third and Ben Hoesing fourth.   Kerry Hayes was the early leader in
the second hobby stock feature.  However, he was unable to hold off the
charge of Randy Embrey who won.  Hayes was second, Keith Williamson third,
and Chris Pruitt fourth.

The dwarf car feature was a barnburner with Jack Meyer leading all the way.
He was challenged by Ed Zehm and Cliff Barber who finished second and third.
Rick Dennis finished fourth.   The A to Z Rental Trophy Dash for dwarf cars
was won by Zehm.

The cruiser feature was won by the driving duo of Renslow and Waddell who
passed Coon and College on the white flag lap.  Johnston and Hood were third
with Day and Kasal fourth.

Racing continues in all classes next Sunday with gates opening at 4:30 P.M.,
hot laps at 6:15, and competition at 7:00.
