Andy Forsberg strikes for SCCT Adobe Cup glory at Petaluma Speedway
Petaluma, CA…Auburn's Andy Forsberg has always been fond of competing at the sticky and hooked up Petaluma Speedway. On Saturday night the SCCT point leader put together a dominating performance in the feature, racking up $5,500 by way of winning the 13th annual Adobe Cup. The now 27-time Sprint Car champion piloted the Pacific Highway Rentals/ Pit Stop USA No. 92 to his 5th career Sprint Car Challenge Tour victory, placing him into a tie with Colby Copeland for fourth all-time. "That track was certainly right up my alley in the main event," Forsberg said on the front stretch. "I know that some of the newer generation of drivers don't particularly enjoy a track like that, but it brought back a lot of memories of the old days. I took an extra lap at the end just to soak it all in. My guys gave me an amazing car there, so I really have to thank them and all the fans for coming out to support the Adobe Cup." Ocean Speedway champion Caleb Debem jumped out front at the waving of the green flag in the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour finale. Debem set the pace up front until Forsberg blasted by for the lead on lap four, which he would never relinquish. Following that Forsberg had his way with things and had to survive an excessive amount of restarts, but each time hit his marks to perfection. The recently crowned Placerville Speedway champ rocketed away to bring home the $5,000 grand prize, along with the $500 Shop Kyle Larson Bonus as a full-time car winning the feature. Dunnigan youngster Luke Hayes put together the finest night of his Sprint Car Challenge Tour career, winning the High Sierra Dash and scoring a runner up finish in the main event. Roseville's Sean Becker did a fantastic job in the 35-lapper to carve his way from 16th to third, rounding out the podium. It marked his fourth top-five effort of the year with SCCT. Jodie Robinson looked impressive for the second week in a row and brought home a fourth-place result at the checkered flag. The Roseville driver had battled her way to second at one point on a restart, only to have a slowdown negate the beautiful move. Placerville's Shane Hopkins continued his strong 2024 campaign by earning the Pit Stop USA Hard Charger Award with an exquisite run from 19th to fifth. The 30-year-old set fast time to begin the night, however, a seventh-place finish in his heat race set him farther back to start the main. Completing the top-10 in the Adobe Cup finale were John Clark, Kurt Nelson, Dustin Freitas, Bradley Terrell and Brad Bumgarner. Nelson was another driver who had a solid night, but experienced tough luck in the main event. The past Ocean titlist had raced his way into second on lap 23, only to have a lapped car spin in front of him with three circuits remaining. Nelson had nowhere to go and brought out a caution but was able to salvage a seventh-place effort at the end. The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour heads next for Hanford's Kings Speedway on Friday October 4th. The event marks the 39th running of the Cotton Classic.

SCCT season resumes with 13th annual Adobe Cup in Petaluma Saturday
Petaluma, CA…For the third consecutive season the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour is primed to sanction the $5,000-to-win "Adobe Cup" at Petaluma Speedway this Saturday September 21st. The evening of family fun at the 13th annual Adobe Cup marks the final season appearance for SCCT at Sonoma County's longest running entertainment venue. Following this Saturday's outing the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour will have just three events remaining in 2024. Adding to the excitement at the event will be the annual Bob McCoy Super Stock Memorial. The familiar Petaluma 3/8-mile oval routinely produces thrilling wheel-to-wheel racing, as lapped traffic can create some of the most frenetic competition of any venue on tour. Please note the facility features an earlier start time, with the Pit Meeting at 4pm and cars on track at 4:30. "We look forward to having the Sprint Car Challenge Tour as part of the 13th annual Adobe Cup this weekend," said Petaluma Promoter Rick Faeth. "Petaluma Speedway doesn't hold as many Winged Sprint Car shows nowadays, but the fans have certainly flocked to the track when we have. The Bob McCoy Memorial has also become a big stock car race, so we think this will be a superb two division program for everyone to attend." This Saturday's Adobe Cup marks the first event for the Sprint Car Challenge Tour since finishing up Speedweek in July. Fresh off wrapping up the Placerville Speedway title last week, Andy Forsberg heads into Petaluma Speedway holding a 74-point lead in the SCCT standings. The Auburn driver is searching to bring home the Russell Motorsports Inc. Double Down Bonus if he can also secure the tour championship. Forsberg, who captured SCCT Speedweek, will be in search of his first Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour victory of the season to try and fend off young Braden Chiaramonte for the title. The El Cajon driver had spent time atop the standings, until encountering issues during SCCT Speedweek. Chiaramonte claimed a SCCT triumph at Antioch in June and will look to grab another at the Adobe Cup. Oakley's Dylan Bloomfield, Roseville's Colby Copeland and Placerville's Shane Hopkins round out the top five in points going into the Adobe Cup. Hopkins has been one of the more consistent drivers throughout California when it comes to Winged 360 racing this year. More drivers looking to take on the famed Petaluma gumbo will include Livermore's Travis Labat, Roseville's Sean Becker and Jodie Robinson, Cotati's Jake Haulot, Sebastopol's Bradley Terrell, Windsor's John Clarke, Chico's Brad Bumgarner, Dunnigan's Luke Hayes and others. Tickets and Details: Adult tickets at Petaluma Speedway this Saturday September 21st cost $25 while seniors, juniors and military with ID are $22. Kids 6-11 will be $10, with five and under being admitted free. Tickets can be purchased via https://www.myracepass.com/tracks/1869/tickets/1416915 or at the gate on Saturday. Seating is general admission. The pit gate will open at noon, with the front grandstand gate opening at 4pm. The pit meeting will be held at 4pm with cars on track at 4:30. Hot laps, Sierra Foothills Wine Services qualifying, and racing will follow. The event will follow the standard SCCT muffler rule, which is either the Large Flowmaster or Large Spintech Muffler as described in the rulebook. The Petaluma Speedway is located in the southern part of the wine country at the Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds just off Highway 101 in Petaluma, California.
