   Wall Speedway will survive at least yet another year. We have alot to do to make this even a better place to race at and visit. The crowds have been spectacular with many families coming every week.  Enthusiasm in the stands has never been greater.

   Lets start building those cars for next year. Spread the word. Wall Speedway is alive !!!

LATE RACE ACTION MAKES MAURIELLO WALL STADIUM MODIFIED WINNER SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Late race action in Saturday night’s 40-lap Downs Ford Modified feature race earned Eric Mauriello the checker flag at Wall Stadium Speedway. The victory was the Howell resident’s second of the season and keeps him in contention for the driving title behind Jackson’s Steve Reed and Chas Okerson of Freehold with three Saturday night points awarding races remaining.

            Adam LaCicero of Lavallette was the star through most of this race as he rocketed to the lead early. Through the initial laps LaCicero fought off New Egypt’s Jason Hearne and Holmdel’s Andrew Krause before Mauriello and Trevor Alspach of Willingboro took over second and third at the halfway point.

            The second half of the race saw the top drivers battle for the lead on almost every lap with LaCicero and Mauriello often racing side-by-side. The big turning point in this one came on the 37^th lap when the front-runners made contact and LaCicero spun from the lead as a result.

            Mauriello then picked up the lead and raced to the win over Alspach, Howell’s Justin Gumley, Derek Hopkinson of Toms River and Reed. Title contender Okerson was ninth.

            “I sure didn’t want that to happen,” Mauriello said of LaCicero’s late race spin. “We were all running hard and I think I got pushed into him. I guess the officials saw it that way because they didn’t put me to the back.

            “We are still looking at the points and we picked up some tonight. We are still very much in contention and this win helps a lot.”

            Brick’s Joe Mongeau raced from deep in the 24-car field to win his fourth 25-lap main event in O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stock racing action. Mongeau caught Jerry Koenig with just five laps remaining and then raced side-by-side for several laps before taking the lead and the win. Scott Riggleman of Manchester and Union’s Joey Helberg of slipped into second and third in the closing laps while Koenig and Howell’s Steve West completed the top five.

            After suffering through misfortune several times during the season Eric Lane of Howell raced to his first ever win in the 25-lapper for the Snap-on Sportsman division. Holmdel’s Andrew Krause chased the second year driver for several laps before finishing second, with Chris Lane and Kevin Davison, both of Howell, and Manchester’s Shanon Mongeau wrapping up the top five.

            Jackson’s Howie Conk fought off several competitors to win the 40-lap main event for the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models. Anthony Crimaldi of Port Monmouth finished second and that was enough for him to earn the division’s “Triple Crown” title. Dominic Casola of Holmdel, Wall’s Cole Ormsbee and Brian Doyle of Ronkonkoma, N.Y. were third through fifth.

            Brick’s Robert Sutphin, who has been successful here in both the Modified and Sportsman divisions, added a win in the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks to his resume Saturday night. Christian LaCicero of Lavallette, Ronnie Mullen and Jason Lane, both of Brick, and Wall’s TJ Graves completed the top five.

Wall Stadium returns to action this Saturday (Sept. 12) featuring the Downs Ford Modifieds in a 40-lapper and the Sportsman cars, Factory Stocks, 4 Cylinder Stocks and the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars in 25-lap main events. The beautifully restored cars of the Garden State Vintage Stock Car Club will also be on hand.

7 WINNERS IN 7 RACES AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY NIGHT 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ The fact that seven different drivers visited the winner’s circle in seven main events at Wall Stadium Speedway on Saturday night proves that the competition is tougher than ever at the shore speedway. Despite the fact that six of those races were double features for three divisions the point championship races in all classes remain tight with just four regular season Saturday night races remaining.

            In the Snap-on Sportsman 25-lapper Shanon Mongeau of Manchester jumped to the lead two laps after a lap four restart and raced on to his third win of the year in the class and his fourth of the season. Early leader Eric Lane of Howell overcame recent tough luck here to finish second while defending champion Kevin Davison and Chris Lane, both of Howell, were third and fourth. Brick’s Robert Sutphin was fifth.

            “It is a real pleasure to drive this car,” Mongeau said. “They work hard on it and it shows on the race track. Eric Lane is doing a great job and is real fast. We needed the car to be good to win.”

            With 30 cars entered for competition in the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks defending champion Scott Riggleman of Manchester and point leader Joe Mongeau of Brick were winners in twin 20 lap main events.

In the first feature Riggleman took over on lap 11 when Gerry Koenig and Jerry Stanzione tangled while fighting for the lead. Mongeau advanced to second at the finish with title contender Joey Helberg of Union third and Rich Mongeau and Ronnie Mullen, both of Brick, fourth and fifth.

In the second Factory Stock main Mongeau raced through the pack to take the lead on lap 16. Both Helberg and Rich Mongeau challenged before settling for second and third, with Howell’s Steve West and Richie Byrne of Wall completing the top five.

Wall’s Robert French won the first of two Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars features wrestling with defending champion Brian Spencer of Edison most of the way. Kyle Dealaman of Warren, Eatontown’s Malcolm Campbell, Jr. and Luke Marzano were third through fifth.

In the second Legend Car 20-lapper Campbell led most of the 20-lap distance to a win that was so popular every driver in the 16 car field drove past the winner’s circle to congratulate him. Both French and Spencer challenged before finishing second and third with Dealaman fourth and Marzano fifth.

Defending champion Brian Doyle of Ronkonkoma, NY won the 35-lap “Triple Crown” race for the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models with point leader Anthony Crimaldi of Port Monmouth and Dominic Casola of Holmdel second and third. Daryn Miller and Jackson’s Howie Conk were fourth and fifth.

THREE TWIN RACES HIGHLIGHT WALL STADIUM ACTION THIS SATURDAY (AUG. 29) 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Three of Wall Stadium Speedway’s most popular divisions, the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models, the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars and the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks will battle in twin main events at Wall Stadium Speedway this Saturday night (August 29). The Snap-on Sportsman division is also scheduled for a single main event. Officials say that qualifying will begin at 5:30 p.m. and main event racing will follow.

         As the regular season races towards its September 26 conclusion the point races are tight in each division making the twin main events more important than ever.

The first Limited Late Model main event will be a 35-lapper, their second “Triple Crown” race of the season. The second main event will go 25 laps.

Defending Legend Cars champ Brian Spencer of Edison is looking for a second straight crown but is followed closely by Wall’s Robert French and Nick Van Wickle for their twin 25-lappers.

BLEWETT TOPS WOODY’S 105 FOR MODIFIEDS AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Howell’s Jimmy Blewett found inspiration in the fact that his sponsor, Woody’s Roadside Tavern in nearby Farmingdale, was also the race sponsor at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night and raced from deep in the field to win the “Woody’s High Banks 105” for Downs Ford Modified stock cars. The win, Blewett’s first of the season here was worth $5105.

            Howell’s Eric Mauriello jumped to the lead from the front row after posting fast time in time trials. While Mauriello led the early laps Blewett immediately went to work advancing from his 13^th starting spot. Using both the high and low lanes on the third mile paved oval Blewett advanced to fifth by lap 20, third by lap 31 and into second with an outside lane pass on lap 35. Blewett then cruised in the runner-up spot until lap 89 when he made an outside lane pass for the lead over Mauriello.

            The final 15 laps saw a flurry of caution flags but Blewett was able to hold off Mauriello on every restart. Chas Okerson of Freehold was third at the finish, while Anthony Sesely of Matawan came from 19^th to finish fourth. Adam LaCicero of Lavallette was fifth.

            “We didn’t time very well, started 13^th and my grandfather wasn’t happy,” Blewett said after the race. “I just decided to run hard and pass cars for my grandfather. I didn’t know if I would burn the tires off it or not. In reality the car was real good and I think I had some extra left at the end of the race.”

            Brick’s Joe Mongeau won the 25 lap main event for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks, taking the lead from Manchester’s Scott Riggleman with eight laps remaining. The winner’s brother, Rich Mongeau of Brick, was the runner-up with Riggleman, Steve West of Howell and Brick’s Ronnie Mullen completing the top five.

            Tyler Truex of Mayetta won his first ever main event taking top honors in the 25-lapper for the Snap-on Sportsman cars. Shanon Mongeau of Manchester chased Truex most of the way before finishing second, with Holmdel’s Andrew Krause, Howell’s Kevin Davison and Parlin’s Larry Thompson wrapping up the top five.

            Fred Cannock of Port Monmouth won his third straight Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stock feature race after Mike Lavery, who crossed the finish line first, could not pass post-race inspection. Todd Dige, Jay Conrad, Darren Burdge and Mike Bilello were second through fifth.

            Buddy Sload won the 25-lapper for the TQ Midgets taking the lead late in the event from Geoff Sutton. Matt Roselli was third

            Dalton Rovira won the 25-lapper for the Sunday Series Champ Karts over Jarrett DeGiantomasso and Kerry Irwin.

HOPKINSON TOPS MODIFIED MAIN AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ After suffering through a terrible first half of the season that saw his car nearly destroyed on more than one occasion Derek Hopkinson raced to victory in the 40-lap main event for Downs Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Saturday night. It was the first win of the year for the Toms River resident and his second overall in the Modified division.

            Jason Treat of Jackson was the early leader in the contest while Hopkinson quickly powered toward the front. By lap three Hopkinson advanced to second and dove into the low groove in turns three and four to take the lead. Hopkinson then stretched a comfortable advantage over New Egypt’s Jason Hearne through a long green flag period until the caution finally waved with three laps remaining. That yellow was forced by a spinning Hearne who suffered a broken rear axle.

Hopkinson then held off Howell’s Justin Gumley through a flurry of late race cautions before nailing down the win. Treat was third with Brick’s Ron Frees and Jackson’s Steven Reed wrapping up the top five.

            “I sure didn’t want to see that caution late in the race,” Hopkinson said in the winner’s circle. “With all that has gone wrong this year I was worried that something else would go wrong. But the car was great and I have to thank everyone who works on it.

            “With all our trouble this year they have gone beyond the call of duty.”

            Mitchell Dowd of Pottstown, Pa. won the 40-lapper for the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars grabbing the lead with an inside lane pass on the final lap. Defending champion Brian Spencer of Edison was second, with Nick Van Wickle, Casey Robicheau of Whiting and Ricky Collins wrapping up the top five.

            Howie Conk of Jackson dove to the inside while racing in a group of lapped cars to take the lead and eventual win in the 25-lapper for the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Model cars. Defending champion Brian Doyle of Ronkonkoma, N.Y. was the runner-up, with Mike Tillett of Bayville, Wall’s Cole Ormsbee and Beachwood’s Bill Vanderveen securing the remaining top five spots.

            After winning his career first Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stock main event the week before, Fred Cannock of Port Monmouth returned to the winner’s circle Saturday night. Cannock, Brick’s Ronnie Mullen and Wall’s TJ Graves were the tight top three at the line while Brick’s Jason Lane and James Meyers of Port Monmouth were fourth and fifth.

            Louie Keraitis of Toms River won the 15-lapper for the visiting Microstocks.

ZACK ALSPACH WINS MODIFIED MAIN AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Just one week after his brother broke through a lackluster season to win the “Summer Scorcher” at Wall Stadium Speedway Zack Alspach of Willingboro turned his campaign around by winning the 40-lap main event for Downs Ford Modified stock cars on NAPA/First Responders Night Saturday. It was the first win of the year for Zack Alspach and it marked the first time ever that Trevor and Zack Alspach won back-to-back events.

            Zack Alspach jumped to the lead in the early going and the pace was frantic as just a handful of cautions slowed the race. Holmdel’s Andrew Krause was his first challenger before Justin Gumley, also of Holmdel, slipped into second on lap 15. Gumley challenged Alspach for a few circuits before Freehold’s Steven Reed powered to second. Reed then shadowed Alspach to the finish. Krause was third, with Freehold’s Chas Okerson and Jason Hearne of New Egypt wrapping up the to five.

            “We really needed this win,” Zack Alspach said in victory lane. “We’ve had a real tough year. Nothing like the season we had last year.

“I was really worried when Steven Reed was behind me at the end. He is a clean driver but he sure doesn’t cut you any slack. Our car was really up to it tonight.”

            Chris Lane of Howell won the companion main event for the Snap-on Sportsman cars. Wall’s Rob Silver fought with Tyler Truex of Manahawkin early in the test before they tangled on a restart. That moved Lane to the lead and he held his ground all the way to the checker flag at lap 20. Holmdel’s Andrew Krause applied heavy pressure before settling for second, with Brick’s Scott Brannick, Shanon Mongeau of Manchester and Manasquan’s Kenny Van Wickle completing the top five.

            Point leader Joey Helberg of Union won the 25-lapper for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks taking the lead on lap 21. Brothers Joe and Rich Mongeau were second and third, with Bob Haberstick and Tiffany Olejnik, both of Wall, fourth and fifth.

Vinny Troia took the lead on lap 18 and then drove to victory in the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars 35-lapper. Wall’s Robert French advanced to second by the checker flag with Edison’s Brian Spencer, Casey Robicheau of Whiting and Nick Van Wickle finishing third through fifth.

The Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks ran two main events. In the first one, a 35-lapper, Christian LaCicero of Lavallette won his first ever main event over Brick’s Robert Sutphin and Howell’s Darren Burdge. In the 25-lap nightcap rookie Fred Cannock was also a career first time winner over Burdge and LaCicero.

Alspach Trades In Missed Chances for Summer Scorcher Win

TREVOR ALSPACH POCKETS $5000 FOR MODIFIED “SCORCHER” WIN AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Trevor Alspach turned around what had been a disappointing season by winning the 125-lap “Summer Scorcher” for Downs Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. The $5000 win was the first of the season for the Willingboro resident.

            Holmdel’s Andrew Krause posted fast time in qualifying and jumped to the lead from the pole position with Alspach slipping into the runner-up spot and Holmdel’s Justin Gumley running third. As the contest ran through the opening 89 non-stop laps Alspach would occasionally move to Krause’s bumper before sliding back a few car lengths. As the race neared halfway Howell’s Jimmy Blewett and Jackson’s Steven Reed advanced to third and fourth as Gumley slipped to fifth spot.

            The first of just a few minor cautions waved on lap 89 when New Egypt’s Jason Hearne spun in the second corner. During this caution every one of the competitors in the race stopped for two new tires for the 36-lap sprint to the finish.

            Once back to action Krause, Alspach and Blewett wrestled for the top spot and swapped positions often through a flurry of caution flags. Alspach was finally able to take the lead for good on lap 94 and stretched an advantage to the finish. Blewett settled for second while Eric Mauriello of Howell came from deep in the field to cross the line third. Mauriello’s car then failed post race inspection, which handed third spot to Reed. Krause finished fourth and Matawan’s Anthony Sesely was fifth.

            “The car was real good tonight thanks to Rob Ormsbee and my family,” Alspach said. “We really needed this win. We’ve been in a spot to win a couple other times this year but something bad always happened.

            “Tonight I just tried to stay in contention until the end. We came up with a good pair of tires and the car worked perfectly.”

            Scott Riggleman of Manchester won the companion 25-lapper for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks taking the lead on lap 16. Marty Van Druten of Toms River, Howell’s Rich Mongeau, Wall’s Bob Haberstick and Brick’s Ronnie Mullen were second through fifth.

            Cole Ormsbee of Wall won his first ever 25-lapper for the Elite Maintenance Limited late Models leading the non-stop test from start to finish. Jackson’s Howie Conk and point leader Anthony Crimaldi of Port Monmouth were second and third, with Mike Tillett of Bayville and Brian Doyle of Ronkonkoma, N.Y. fourth and fifth.

            Howell’s Darren Burdge won his second 25-lapper for the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks over Brick’s Ronnie Mullen and Alonzo Morales of Burlington. Wall’s TJ Graves and Fred Cannock were fourth and fifth.

            With clean racing in all divisions and never the need for the wrecker all evening the four-division racing card was completed before 9:00 p.m.

RON FREES WINS MODIFIED RACE AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Former Wall Stadium Speedway Street Stock driving champion Ron Frees raced to his first victory of the year in the Downs Ford Modified stock car main event Saturday night. It was the Brick resident’s first win since returning to the third-mile paved oval at the beginning of the season, his second in the Modified class and his 29^th overall at the speedway.

            Trevor Alspach of Willingboro was looking to turn around his luckless season by taking the lead early in the 40-lap race and soon found Frees riding close behind. With just a few cautions slowing the 23-car field lapped traffic soon came into play. Just passing the halfway point of the race one lapped car continued to race in front of the leader. Alspach and the lapped car tangled on the front stretch on lap 25 with Frees taking over the top spot as a result.

            Frees then fought off the attacks of Howell’s Eric Mauriello in the closing laps for the win while Chas Okerson of Freehold was third. Derek Hopkinson of Toms River was charging at the end as he overcame early trouble for fourth. Trevor Alspach also made a striking recovery for fifth.

            “I have to thank everyone with Yaccarino Motorsports for this opportunity,” Frees said after completing a backwards victory lap. “The car was good, but I’m afraid I held up the 14 car a little at the end. Still, you get that close to a win and you just can’t give it away.”

            Larry Thompson of Parlin took his second straight win in the 30-lapper for the Snap-on Sportsman cars grabbing the lead on a lap 20 with an inside lane pass of Wall’s Rob Silver. Howell’s Kevin Davison was the runner-up, with Matt Langbein of Laurence Harbor, Holmdel’s Andrew Krause and Manasquan’s Kenny Van Wickle wrapping up the top five.

            Many time champion Rick Mongeau proved that he is still no stranger to winning by taking top honors in the 25-lapper for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks. Ronnie Mullen of Brick was the runner-up, while Union’s Joey Helberg, Marty Van Druten of Toms River and Brick’s Joe Mongeau were third through fifth.

            Wall’s Robert French continues his quest for his first Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars title by winning his third 25-lapper of the season. Brian Spencer of Edison was tight in second spot, with Nick Van Wickle, Vinnie Colletti and Chris Gall completing the top five.

            Jason Lane of Brick charged to the lead quickly and then held his ground for his second win of the year in the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks 25-lapper. Brick’s Ronnie Mullen was second, with Fred Cannock, TJ Graves of Wall and Burlington’s Alonzo Morales rounding out the top five.

            Defending champ Brian Doyle of Ronkonkoma, N.Y. grabbed the lead from Wall’s Cole Ormsbee in the late going to win the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Model 25-lap main event. Point leader Anthony Crimaldi was third with Beachwood’s Bill Vanderveen fourth and Dominic Casola of Holmdel fifth.

Wall Stadium returns to action this Saturday (August 1) for the “Summer Scorcher” with the Modified stock cars featured in a 125-lap, $5000 to win main event.

“CHRISTMAS IN JULY” AND BIG AUTO RACING ACTION AT WALL STADIUM THIS SATURDAY (JULY 25)

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ The weather may be telling us we are in the middle of a Jersey Shore summer but the Wall Stadium Speedway schedule says it is “Christmas in July” at the shore speedway this Saturday night (July 25)! The evening will feature holiday music on the public address system, gifts for many of the fans and professional auto racing for six divisions of stock cars. Grandstand seating will open at 5:00 p.m. and qualifying is set for 6:00 p.m. Main event action will follow around 7:00 p.m.

            On the famous third mile high-banked paved oval the Downs Ford Modifieds will lead the way in a 40-lap main event. Defending champion Chas Okerson of Freehold will lead the way with plenty of competition coming from 2015 “Triple Crown Champion” Steven Reed of Freehold, Andrew Krause of Holmdel, Ron Frees of Brick, brothers Trevor and Zack Alspach, both of Willingboro, and Adam LaCicero of Lavallette just to name a few.

The Snap-on Sportsman racers will compete in a 30 lap feature race, while the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks, the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks, the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models and the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars will battle in 25-lap main events on the third mile high banked paved oval.

REED WINS 50-LAPPER AND MODIFIED TRIPLE CROWN AT WALL SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Downs Ford Modified stock car driver Steven Reed has always raced for victories while letting the championship point race take care of itself. On Saturday night at Wall Stadium Speedway the Jackson resident won the final 50-lap “Triple Crown” race and that was good enough for him to win the mini-series title and the $1,200 in bonus money that went with it. The “Snap-on Night” victory was Reed’s third win of the season and also earned him a watch from Mertens Jewelers of Manasquan.

            Reed powered his No. 55 out front at the drop of the green flag and was never headed. Holmdel’s Justin Gumley, Howell’s Eric Mauriello and Adam LaCicero of Lavallette all took turns at attacking the race leader before the checker flag waved.

            At the finish it was Reed, LaCicero and Mauriello while Brick’s Ron Frees was fourth and Zack Alspach of Willingboro was fifth. Little Falls’ Shaun Carrig was ninth and won a special award from the Wiesnewski family in honor of their late son Victor.

            “I’m just glad I’m a better driver than I am a bull rider,” Reed said jokingly after taking a fall from a mechanical bull in the grandstand midway earlier in the evening. “We work real hard on the car every week whether we win or not. We look for every tenth of a second and that work paid off tonight.”

The Snap-on Sportsman cars ran two main events. In the 40-lapper, the second of three “Triple Crown” races, Andrew Krause of Holmdel took the lead on lap 12 and was never headed. Manchester’s Shanon Mongeau, Howell’s Kevin Davison, Rob Hyer of South Amboy and Howell’s Chris Lane were second through fifth.

Larry Thompson of Parlin won the second Sportsman main on his sponsor’s night followed by Krause, Tuckerton’s Robbie Walton, Davison and Mongeau.

Brick’s Ronnie Mullen won the first of two feature races for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks over Union’s Joey Helberg, Scott Riggleman of Manchester, Joe Mongeau of Brick and Toms River’s Marty Van Druten. In the second race Mongeau made a late race pass for the win over Helberg, Ron Booth, Wall’s Tiffany Olejnik and Gerry Koenig.

Howell’s Darren Burdge grabbed the win in the 25-lapper for the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks while Brick’s Ronnie Mullen was the runner-up. Lavallette’s Christian LaCicero, Wall’s TJ Graves and Brick’s Jason Lane were second through fifth.

            Buddy Sload won the 25-lapper for the TQ Midgets. The race was the first one ever held on the flat fifth mile “inner oval” for the open cockpit cars.

Wall Stadium returns to action this Saturday (July 25) for the “Halfway the Christmas Party Night” with the Modified stock cars in action along with Sportsman cars, the Factory Stocks, the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models, the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars and the 4 Cylinder Stocks. With spectator seating opening at 5:00 p.m. qualifying is set for 6:00 p.m. followed by main events.

ANTHONY SESELY CLAIMS MODIFIED GARDEN STATE CLASSIC WIN AT WALL SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Anthony Sesely raced in contention most of the way to put himself in a position to win in the closing laps and then took the victory in the final moments of the 41^st running of the Garden State Classic at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. The 100-lap Downs Ford Modified win was the Matawan veteran’s second victory in the prestigious event.

          ;  Once the 29 entries were trimmed down to 24 starters Derek Hopkinson of Toms River rocketed to the lead with Holmdel’s Andrew Krause on his bumper. The first 66 laps went pretty smoothly with just a few caution flags for relatively minor incidents. A lap 66 restart saw Krause power to the lead with former race winners Steven Reed of Freehold and Trevor Alspach of Willingboro advancing to second and third

          ;  Lap 78 saw Reed charge into the lead with Alspach and Zane Zeiner of Bath, Pa. taking over second and third. Alspach powered to the front on the 83^rd lap before Zeiner took command on a lap 89 restart while Sesely slipped into second with Howell’s Jimmy Blewett charging into third.

          ;  Sesely then hounded Zeiner until a caution flag waved on lap 98. On the ensuing restart officials felt that Zeiner jumped at the restart line and warned him that he one attempt to get it right. When the restart flag waved again officials felt that Zeiner jumped again and sent him to the rear of the field.

          ;  That put Sesely to the top spot and he raced home the final two laps for the win Blewett was second, with Manchester’s Shanon Mongeau, Freehold’s Chas Okerson and Shaun Carrig of Little Falls rounding out the top five.

          ;  “The car was real good tonight, but sometimes you need luck and tonight I needed the luck,” Sesely said. “It was real hot out there tonight and I needed the car to be good. We had a couple of oil downs on the track and it was pretty tough sitting in that hot car while the track crew cleaned the track.

          ;  “The track was pretty slick after that but the track crew did a good job.”

          ;  Brick’s Ronnie Mullen grabbed the win in the companion 25-lapper for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks fighting off both Brick’s Joe Mongeau and Union’s Joey Helberg. Scott Riggleman of Manchester and Wall’s Bob Haberstick completed the top five.

          ;  Kevin Nowak of Medford, N.Y. raced into the top spot on lap 13 and drove to victory in the 25-lap race for the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars. Vinny Troia, early leader Robert French, Nick Van Wickle and Chris Gall completed the top five.

          ;  John Vullo of Ronkonkoma, N.Y. won the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Model 25-lapper over Holmdel’s Dominic Casola. Wall’s Cole Ormsbee, Anthony Crimaldi of Port Monmouth and Bayville’s Mike Tillett were third through fifth.

          ;  Alonzo Morales of Burling won his second straight 25-lapper for the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks over Jason Lane and Ronnie Mullen, both of Brick. TJ Graves and Darianne McLaren wrapped up the top five.

          ;  The main event for the Snap-on Sportsman racers was postponed until this Saturday.

Wall Stadium returns to action this Saturday (July 18) for Snap-on Night with the Downs Ford Modified stock cars in action along with two main events for the Sportsman cars. The Factory Stocks and the 4 Cylinder Stocks will also race on the third mile paved oval while the TQ Midgets and the Pro 2 Modifieds will debut on the fifth mile inner oval.

WALL STADIUM MODIFIEDS READY FOR GARDEN STATE CLASSIC THIS SATURDAY (JULY 11) 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ With the Independence Day break now complete Wall Stadium Speedway stock car racers are ready for a schedule packed with extra-distance and prestigious events that will last through the summer season. The first of these events will be presented this Saturday night (July 11) as the Downs Ford Modifieds compete in the 41^st running of the $4,000 to win “Garden State Classic 100.”

With a full card of racing action in addition to the “Classic” on tap speedway officials have announced that qualifying will begin at 5:00 p.m. with the first two main events for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks and the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks set for a 6:00 p.m. start. A brief break will follow before the remaining main events including the 100-lap “Classic” are presented.

            This year’s 100-lap “Classic” format, offering $4,000 to the winner, is attracting the attention of several racers in the Modified division. Invader Jimmy Blewett of Howell has said that he plans to compete while other travelers including Anthony Sesely of Matawan and Zane Zeiner of Bath, Pa. have also expressed interest in the big payday.

Series regulars expected to see action include top drivers Andrew Krause of Holmdel, Eric Mauriello of Howell, Jackson’s Jason Treat, Brick’s Shawna Ingraham, Jackson’s Steven Reed and Derek Hopkinson of Toms River. Also among expected local entries are Adam LaCicero of Lavallette, 10-time track driving champ Chas Okerson of Freehold, Shaun Carrig of Little Falls Zack Alspach of Willingboro and Jason Hearne of New Egypt. Trevor Alspach of Willingboro is the defending champion while Okerson, Blewett and Reed have also won the race.

The Modifieds are not the only racers in Saturday night’s spotlight. The Factory Stocks, 4 Cylinder Stocks, Snap-on Tools Sportsman, Elite Maintenance Limited Late Modified and the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars will all see action in special “Cone Races.” In a “Cone Race” a traffic cone is placed on the backstretch at the one-to-go sign for a restart. Any driver can choose to go inside the cone or outside the cone. If the first four drivers choose the inside, for example, the fifth place driver can choose outside and move up to the front row. Does a driver take the preferred inside groove and restart further back on the inside, or does he or she choose the shorter line of cars on the outside and hope he or she can make it stick? That’s the issue each driver will face on each restart.

In addition to the large field of present day competitors, 20 past “Garden State Classic” champions, including Gil Hearne, Tony Siscone, Jerry Cranmer, Bob Rossell, Tony Hirschman, Don Stives, John Blewett, Jr., Dan McLaughlin, Jr. and Sam Russo have been invited to be on hand to be honored and to sign autographs during a “Garden State Classic Champions Reunion.” Recreations of the No. 68 sedan that the late Pete Frazee, the first “Classic” champion drove here, and the famous No. XL-1 that was so successful will be on display in addition to several other vintage cars. Banner Night festivities will also be presented where fans can display banners for the their favorite current day drivers. In addition Jeff’s Service Center, Zeiner Fabrications and Mattarazzo Construction, all sponsors of the Zane Zeiner No. 76 Modified entry, will present new bicycles to two lucky young fans and Downs Ford will present the first 300 fans special gifts.

Saturday’s schedule will see the competitor pit area open at 1:00 p.m. Regular practice will start at 3:00 p.m., while spectator seating will open and qualifying will start at 5:00 p.m.

Another big night is set for July 18 when Sportsman division sponsor Snap-on Tools will sponsor a full card of racing. A large gathering of guests is expected and the more courageous fans will have the opportunity to ride a mechanical bull. The Garden State Vintage Stock Car Club will be on hand featuring Pintos, Gremlins, Mustangs, Vegas, Chevette and Falcon cars that raced on the speedway from the mid-1960’s through the 1970’s. Non-club members are also invited to display their special cars. In addition the TQ Midgets will race on the inner oval flat track and the Pro 2 Modifieds will also debut.

Wall Stadium Speedway is located on Route 34 in Wall Township, N.J., just one mile north of Garden State Parkway exit 98 and Interstate 195 exit 35B.

MONGEAU AND VAN WICKLE CLAIM SPORTSMAN TWINS AT WALL SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Shanon Mongeau of Manchester and Kenny Van Wickle of Manasquan each claimed victory in Twin 35 lap main event for the Snap-on Sportsman cars at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. It was the second win of the campaign for each driver in the Sportsman ranks.

          ;  Mongeau took full advantage of an up front starting spot in the 19-car field to jump to the lead at the outset of the first race. Brick’s Robert Sutphin chased him in the early going before Howell’s Chris Lane became the challenger near the ten lap mark. With just a handful of cautions for minor incidents Mongeau held his ground to the checker flag. Lane and Sutphin were second and third with Holmdel’s Andrew Krause and Parlin’s Larry Thompson wrapping up the top five.

          ;  “There are a lot of people to thank for the way this car runs,” Mongeau said. “They seem to work on this car all the time.”

          ;  In the Sportsman nightcap Van Wickle needed just a few laps to take control before fighting off the advances of Lane and Howell’s Kevin Davison. Just a handful of cautions slowed the test although the red flag waved on lap 28 when Brick’s Scott Brannick slammed the first turn rail. He was not injured.

          ;  Van Wickle then fought off Davison for the win while Mongeau came from mid pack to finish third. Tyler Truex of Manahawkin and Lane completed the top five.

          ;  “The car has been fast this year but we’ve had some troubles so far,” Van Wickle said. “The latest problem has been an electrical issue that we just solved tonight. The guys do a great job.”

          ;  In a car that has not been painted and was nick named the “Grey Ghost,” Ron Booth, Jr. raced to his first O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stock win of the season. Wall’s Bob Haberstick challenged before settling for second, while Brick’s Ronnie Mullen, Union’s Joey Helberg and defending champion Scott Riggleman of Manchester rounded out the top five.

          ;  Mike Alcaro of West Milford raced to victory in the 25-lapper for the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars beating Howell’s Robert French to the finish line. Mitchell Dowd, Edison’s Brian Spencer and Whiting’s Casey Robicheau were third through fifth.

          ;  Mike Tillett of Bayville won the non-stop 25-lap race for the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Models holding off challenger Anthony Crimaldi of Port Monmouth most of the way. Former champion Howie Conk of Jackson was third with John Vullo and Brian Doyle, both of Ronkonkoma, N.Y., fourth and fifth.

SHANON MONGEAU CLAIMS MODIFIED 50-LAPPER AT WALL SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Shanon Mongeau raced into contention early and then survived an oily racetrack to win the second of three “Triple Crown” 50-lap races for the Downs Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. It was the Manchester resident’s first Modified win of the year.

            Kenny Matlach of New Hyde Park, N.Y. took advantage of a front row starting spot to lead the 19-car field at the outset. Matlach was able to stretch an impressive advantage early but went from dominant leader to innocent victim in an instant. With 29 laps complete Matlach found super slick synthetic oil that was dropped from the car of another competitor and spun from the lead in turn two. On the restart Mongeau had moved into position to take the lead and then fought off the advances of Willingboro’s Zack Alspach to the checker flag. Justin Gumley of Howell, Holmdel’s Andrew Krause and Jackson’s Steven Reed wrapped up the top five.

            “This win is real special,” Mongeau said after the race. “The car has been fast, but Rob Ormsbee worked on it Friday night and it was the best it has ever been tonight. I’m real happy to win one for the car’s owner, Steve Blauvelt.”

            Matt Langbein of Laurence Harbor led the entire distance to win his first ever 30-lap Snap-on Sportsman main event on Saturday. The 18-car field cruised 28 straight laps without a caution before the yellow flag waved three times in the final two laps. Those restarts made Langbein fight for the win as he was challenged by Brick’s Robert Sutphin every step of the way. Holmdel’s Andrew Krause, Larry Thompson of Parlin and Howell’s Kevin Davison were third, fourth and fifth.

            Howell’s Robert French grabbed the win in the 25-lap main event for the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars fighting off defending champ Brian Spencer of Edison most of the way. Nick Van Wickle of Edgewater, Jim Sylvester and Malcolm Campbell of Eatontown wrapped up the top five.

            Ronnie Mullen of Brick took the lead near the halfway point and won the first of two 25-lap races for the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks. Jason Lane of Brick, Mike Lavery, Alonzo Morales of Burlington and Wall’s TJ Graves wrapped up the top five.

            Morales came back to win the 4 Cylinder Stocks nightcap over Mullen, Graves, Lane and Fred Cannock.

            Mullen was also the winner of a special 25-lap race in Legend Cars for drivers who are 40 years of age and older. The victory came in Mullen’s first ever race in a Legend Car.

Wall Stadium returns to action this Saturday (June 13) with four divisions competing in five main events.

DAVISON AND MONGEAU TOP WALL SPORTMAN MAINS SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Defending driving champion Kevin Davison and Shanon Mongeau, both of Howell, enjoyed victories in Snap-on Tools Sportsman main events at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. For each it was the first win of the young season.

            In the first feature, a 30-lapper fog postponed from the previous Saturday night, Davison battled Brick’s Dominic Fattaruso through the first 19 laps. When Fattaruso unexpectedly dropped from the race Davison took sole possession of the lead and was never headed. Howell’s Rob Silver was the runner-up, with Mongeau, Manasquan’s Kenny Van Wickle and Howell’s Chris Lane completing the top five.

            In the regularly scheduled Sportsman 40-lapper, the first in the division’s Triple Crown series, Lane was the early leader and fought off attacks from Holmdel’s Andrew Krause, Mongeau and Brick’s Robert Sutphin through the early going. Mongeau was finally able to slip past on the inside lane on lap 26 and raced on to the win. Krause and Lane were second and third with Larry Thompson of Parlin and Van Wickle wrapping up the top five.

            Edison’s Brian Spencer won his second straight main event for the Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars. Spencer took the lead on the fifth lap of this 35-lap Triple Crown series test and held off Howell’s Robert French, who came from deep in the field, in the closing laps. Joe McGrath of Middletown, Vincent Colletti and Nick Van Wickle were third through fifth.

            Brick’s Ronnie Mullen jumped to the lead early and then enjoyed an advantage to take the win in the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stock 35-lap Triple Crown race. Wall’s Bob Haberstick, Jr. was the runner-up with Union’s Joey Helberg, Joe Mongeau of Brick and defending champ Scott Riggleman of Manchester wrapping up the top five.

            Joey Bailey of Helmetta won the 20-lap feature for the visiting TQ Midgets grabbing the lead late in the race from Ryan Tidman of Levittown, Pa.

            Late evening showers postponed the 25-lapper for the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stocks.

JUSTIN GUMLEY WINS MODIFIED RACE, OTHERS FOGGED OUT AT WALL STADIUM SATURDAY 

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Justin Gumley beat a 23 car field, the fast approaching fog and several restarts forced by caution flags for accidents to win the 50-lap main event for Downs Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. It was the first win since 2007 for the Howell resident it puts him in the point lead for the speedway’s “Triple Crown” title.

            Brick’s Ron Frees was the first leader of the contest as Gumley charged into second before the lap seven mark. A lap 10 restart saw Gumley charge to the outside lane and into the lead while Frees and Jackson’s Steven Reed ran tight in second and third. On lap 19 Reed was able to wrestle his way into second spot but Frees still remained very much in contention.

            Several caution flags for spins and tangles riddled the event. The worst incident came on lap ten when Derek Hopkinson of Toms River touched another car in turn two. Apparently the tangle caused front-end damage to Hopkinson’s mount causing it to lose braking. As a result Hopkinson’s car slammed the fourth turn rail with great force causing severe damage to his car. Fortunately no injuries were reported.

            During all the restarts in the event Reed and Frees hounded Gumley. On more than one occasion it seemed like Reed was on the verge of racing into the lead only to have Gumley protect his front running turf. When the checker flag waved Gumley, Reed and Frees were a tight top three with Howell’s Eric Mauriello racing from deep in the pack for fourth and New Egypt’s Jason Hearne fifth.

            “I never thought the race would end,” Gumley said after the event. “The car was pretty good tonight. It was obviously good enough to win. It took a long time to run the race with all those cautions. Near the end I started to worry if I would have enough fuel.”

            Defending Green Flag Driving Experience Legend Cars champion Brian Spencer of Edison won the companion 25-lap feature race. Taking the lead early Spencer grabbed his first win of the young season over Whiting’s Casey Robicheau, Mitchell Dowd, Louie Keraitis and Nick Van Wickle.

            Former champion Howie Conk of Jackson took top honors in the Elite Maintenance Limited Late Model 25-lapper. Conk took over the lead in the early going and was chased across the finish line by Bayville’s Mike Tillett, Anthony Crimaldi of Port Monmouth, John Vullo of Ronkonkoma, N.Y. and Wall’s Cole Ormsbee.

            After the first five laps of the Snap-on Sportsman 30-lap main event the fog really settled over the speedway making racing conditions dangerous. After consultation officials decided to postpone that race and the 35-lapper for the O’Shea’s Auto Repair Factory Stocks to a future date due to safety concerns.

Wall Stadium returns to action this Saturday (May 16) night with a special salute to Scouting. On this night any Boy or Girl Scout will be admitted to the grandstands free of charge when wearing any part of their uniform. With spectator seating opening at 5:00 p.m. qualifying is set for 6:00 p.m. followed by main events for the Sportsman, Factory Stocks, 4 Cylinder Stocks and Legend Cars. The Sportsman and Legend Cars main events will be the first of their “Triple Crown” races. The open cockpit winged Three Quarter Midgets will also make their first visit of the season.

STEVEN REED OVERCOMES INJURY TO WIN WALL STADIUM MODIFIED

RACE SATURDAY

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. ~ Racing with a severely sprained right wrist suffered here on opening night one week age Steven Reed raced to victory in the 40-lap main event for the Downs Ford Modified stock cars at Wall Stadium Speedway Saturday night. It was his first win of the year.

            Reed jumped to the lead early and tested his injured wrist through 29 laps of non-stop racing. The first of two cautions waved when Justin Gumley went spinning on the backstretch before Renee Dupuis of Glastonbury, Ct. forced the second caution on lap 31 with an apparent blown engine.

            All the while Reed held his ground as a battle for the remaining top five spots raged behind him. Toms River’s Derek Hopkinson picked his way through the field to finish second at the stripe while Howell’s ken Woolley, Jr., Holmdel’s Andrew Krause and Zack Alspach of Willingboro wrapped up the top five.

            “The wrist really wasn’t too bad,” Reed said after the race. “Over the winter any dad and I went over everything with this car to make it faster. Tonight it paid off as it was pretty much perfect. We got lucky going the first 29 laps without a challenge. The car was up to it and I hope to win more as the season goes on.”

            Second generation driver Robby Walton of Tuckerton battled his way to the front of the pack and went on to win his first ever main event in the 30-lapper for the Snap-on Sportsman cars. Scott Brannick of Brick led the first 14 laps while Walton picked his way through the top five. Walton powered to the front on lap 14 just moments before Brannick’s mount slammed the third turn rail. He was not injured.

            Walton then raced on to the win over Krause, Brick’s Dom Fattaruso, Kenny Van Wickle of Manasquan and Howell’s Chris Lane who recovered from an earlier accident.

            Wall’s Brien Crosby raced to his second 25-lap win in the Green Monster Insulation 4 Cylinder Stock feature race. In a contest that saw the top four drivers swapping positions most of the way Alonzo Morales of Burlington crossed the finish line second with Brick’s Ronnie Mullen, Corey Stockert of Toms River and Wall’s Allan Camp wrapping up the top five.

            Vinny Troia led the 25-lap Green Flag Driving Experience feature race from start to finish to claim his first win of the year. With the top three running in a tight pack Wall’s Robert French was second and defending champ Brian Spencer of Edison was third. Louie Keraitis of Toms River and Steve Minghenelli of Sewell were fourth and fifth.

The event was the first of a Triple Crown Series for the division with the next event set for May 9.
