Nightmare Pure Stocks-Massey Breaks Through

Image
On a night of first at The Cave Speedway, Brian Massey would add his name to the list of candidates for Rookie Of The Year by topping an impressive 16 car field Saturday night. Budd Ritenauer, looking to make an great night night even better, set fast time with 2.87 seating him on the pole for the first heat. The battle for the lead in the first heat would eventually steal the spotlight however with Greg Hoard and Tyler Williamson fighting it out to the end with Williamson barely edging out Hoard by mere inches. Alan Sagi picked up the win in the second heat leaving the third heat to be won by another first time winner Travis Clark. The last spot in the C main would be filled by Dwain Welsh who qualified through the D. Welsh made it interesting for eventual winner Junior Cooper who the parlayed his C main win by finishing third in the B behind winner Brian Massey and Greg Hoard. It was a steep uphill climb for Massey as he would find himself dueling with both Sagi and Hoard before fina...

Reitnauer Confronts His Nightmare At The Cave

Image
I will prepare and someday my chance will come-Abraham Lincoln. Budd Reitnauer picked a bad night to try and win his first feature at The Cave. With the likes of '07 Nightmare winners Mike Parrill Sr, '06 Black Friday winner Alan Sagi, '09 Earl Grimm Memorial winner Dwain Welsh, and reigning Little World 100 winner Steve Welsh making up a field of 22 drivers tuning up for The World, and setting their sights on The Nightmare. Right out of the gate Reitnauer would set third fast time behind Joe Shifflett and eventual fast time setter Alan Sagi (2.34). Sagi and Shifflett would waste little time advancing to the A Main, winning the first two heats respectively. Reitnauer would claim the third heat as his own and Matt Williamson came out on top of the fourth. If you didn't make the feature through the heats your back was against the wall, with four mains acting as last chances for 18 drivers. The E Main saw Doug Tolley outlast Joe Saunders to advance to the D Main with Rick ...

1/17/09 Hoard King Of The Hill

Image
Greg Hoard picked up his first victory at The Cave Speedway on Saturday night taking home the checkered flag in The 1st Annual Null Machine Shop 600. In a race where many different factors come into play, Hoard was seemingly on his way to an easy victory until Brian Massey charged to the top to give Hoard a run for his money. However Massey would eventually fall victim to the round robin rotation and be forced to watch helplessly as in the end, Hoard would claim the top spot by only one lap. The final rundown (out of a possible 600) Greg Hoard 590, Brian Massey 589, Tyler Williamson 581, Mike Parrill Sr. 575, Dwain Welsh 558, Doug Tolley 555, Rick Williamson 540, Andy Kirby 532, Matt Williamson 516, Budd Reitnauer 510.

Welsh Honors Late Friend, Captures Earl Grimm Memorial

Image
Dwain Welsh of Winchester Virginia took home his first ever trophy race this past Saturday, and if that weren't special enough, the race was The 5th Annual Earl Grimm Memorial, a race that pays tribute to his late friend. But there would be no shortage of challenges from quick time setter Alan Sagi, an unretired Joe Shifflett, and a whole family of Williamson's. Getting to the A main would prove to be no small task as the first heat would eventually turn into an every man for himself nailbiter between Rick Williamson and Alan Sagi with Williamson barely edging out Sagi to claim the coveted pole position for the feature. The second heat saw Joe Shifflett rocket to the lead and punch his ticket for the big show with Tyler Williamson taking the checkered to win the third and final heat. Budd Reitenauer fought his way up the ladder from the D main to the C, only to be outlastd by the Maryland Outlaw Bobby Jones. The B main was packed with heavy hitters as Alan Sagi and Dwain Welsh ...
