Modified Stars Returning to Devil's Bowl Speedway for $10,000-to-Win Slate Valley 100 - Sportsman "draw race" will pay $2,000 to the winner
WEST HAVEN, Vt. - The biggest names in dirt Modified stock car racing are returning to Vermont for just the second and final time in 2021. Devil's Bowl Speedway hosts the second annual "Slate Valley 100" on Sunday, September 26 at 4 p.m., and the stars are committing to the race, chasing after the $10,000 top prize. Early commitments have come from Mat Williamson, Anthony Perrego, Kenny Tremont Jr., Tim Fuller, Erick Rudolph, Mike Mahaney, and Rocky Warner, already lending major star power to the race. Several Vermont favorites are also coming home to challenge the big names including East Corinth's Adam Pierson. Canadian driver "Money Mat" Williamson won the inaugural Slate Valley 100 last year after a late pass for the lead. Williamson lamented missing the rescheduled rain date for the "Battle at the Bowl" event in August, so the St. Catherines, Ont., racer plans to make up for lost time by fielding the potent Buzz Chew Racing No. 88 entry - the same car that won him $10,000 last year. Anthony Perrego has had a dream season in 2021, with his Superior Remodeling No. 44 team sweeping the Big Block and Small Block track championships at Orange County Fair Speedway in his hometown of Middletown, N.Y., and the Modified title at Albany-Saratoga (N.Y.) Speedway. Perrego's history at Devil's Bowl is short but sweet; he won a 25-lap preliminary feature at the 2021 Battle at the Bowl, and he won that race's 50-lap main event in 2020. Ten-time Devil's Bowl track champion Tremont will return home for only his second appearance of the year in the Rifenburg Construction No. 115, trying to earn his 90th win at the track. The West Sand Lake, N.Y., driver scored a pair of top-10 finishes at the Battle at the Bowl and has won features at the Albany-Saratoga and Lebanon Valley speedways in 2021, raising his career total to an astounding 389 victories. Edwards, N.Y.'s Tim Fuller is fresh off winning the Small Block Modified title at Can-Am Speedway, and he was a winner at Devil's Bowl in July 2020. Fuller's feature win at Land of Legends Raceway on Labor Day weekend marked the 250th overall victory of his career, and the former Super DIRTcar Series champion says he wants to collect No. 251 at Devil's Bowl. Erick Rudolph made his first laps at Devil's Bowl in 2020 and he immediately found the groove. The Ransomville, N.Y., racer finished on the podium in all three features at last year's Battle at the Bowl and scored a top 10 a month later in the Slate Valley 100. Rudolph is a two-time champion of the BRP Modified Tour and will make the six-hour haul from the Niagara Falls region searching for his first win on Vermont clay. Gloversville, N.Y.'s Rocky Warner scored the biggest victory of his career at Devil's Bowl in 2019, winning the Fabian Earth Moving Vermont 200 for Sportsman Modifieds. Warner just finished second in the prestigious Fonda 200 last weekend and will try to cap a late-season run with the Slate Valley 100's big payday. Right on Warner's back bumper in third place at the Fonda 200 was Elizabethtown, N.Y.'s Mike Mahaney, who is seemingly on the brink of his first Devil's Bowl win. Mahaney was stellar at the Battle at the Bowl last month, finishing second, third, and fourth in his three features, and he nearly won the inaugural Slate Valley 100 last year. Vermont standout Adam Pierson, who recently earned his first Big Block Modified win in a weekly event at Albany-Saratoga, is looking for his first major victory in the division. Pierson is a veteran of the weekly Sportsman class at Devil's Bowl but has used the second half of 2021 to focus on his Adam Gage-owned Modified program. Pierson has been hot lately, scoring top-five finishes in all four features that he ran at the Battle at the Bowl and finishing a strong fourth in the recent Vermont 200. Many more top drivers are expected to go for the Slate Valley 100 checkers on Sunday, following a Super DIRTcar Series race at Albany-Saratoga on Saturday night. Initial commitments have been received by more than 30 drivers who hope to be able to tow to Devil's Bowl on Sunday afternoon. In addition to the main attraction, the popular Sportsman Modified division will have its own special event with a 40-lap, $2,000-to-win race using the "draw" format. The track's weekly O'Reilly Auto Parts Limited Sportsman and Mini Stock divisions will also be on the Sunday card, with the Limiteds running a 30-lap feature and the Mini Stocks churning out a pair of 20-lappers in a "split field" format. Grandstand general admission on Sunday, September 26, is $25 for adults and $5 for children aged 12 and under. Tickets are available online at https://buytickets.at/devilsbowlspeedway and at the speedway on race day. Infield drive-in parking is $35 for adults and free for children. Infield passes are sold only at the track on race day. Pit passes are $45 per person, available at the speedway or on the "Pit Pay" Mobile App; the minimum age in the pit area is 10 years old, with proof of age required for minors, per Vermont State Law. Devil's Bowl Speedway is located on Route 22A in West Haven, Vt., four miles north of U.S. Route 4, Exit 2, and just 20 minutes from Rutland, Vt.

WILD ONE: Bachetti Bags $25,500 Mr. DIRT Track USA Title
WEST LEBANON, NY - It all came down to the final lap and The Wild Child, Andy Bachetti, rose to the occasion. After 100 laps of high speed, high banked action at The Valley of Speed, the 101-lap, $25,500-to-win Mr. DIRT Track USA had yet to be decided. Larry Wight, who had led laps and fought inside the top 3 all race, slowed on the backstretch with a mechanical problem bringing out the caution flag on lap 100. Andy Bachetti, from Sheffield, MA, was able to hold off Matt Sheppard and Stewart Friesen to be the first across the finish line under the waving checkered flags. At the same time, Sheppard made the pass for second place on the final lap over Friesen and took home $6,000. Bachetti, from Sheffield, MA, now has five Super DIRTcar Series victories at Lebanon Valley Speedway (2004, 2004, 2008, 2013, 2021) which means he has Series wins in three different decades. He was extremely thankful for his hard-working crew and the clutch calls they made on the setup going into the Feature. "We were good all night," Bachetti said about his #4 Big Block. "My team made the right calls tonight. We went with the right tire combination and the Garrity Asphalt Reclaiming machine was awesome." It's not all in the setup though. Lebanon Valley Speedway can use a racecar up very quickly without the proper care behind the wheel. "You have to keep the car square and straight," said Bachetti. "You gotta keep the tires on. You gotta have a good enough car to get there. We had a lot of brake fade and a lot of issues. When I got here, we had a brake issue so was pumping the brakes a lot. Would get tight and push too but overall, it was a super way to end the year." Mike Mahaney, in the #35, brought the field to the green flag and raced to the lead in the first corner. Unfortunately, a brake failure caused Mahaney to overshoot the next corner and hit the wall. The car rolled down the track in front of the field and luckily no other drivers made contact with his prone racecar. The race restarted on lap 7 with Larry Wight and Adam Pierson now on the front row. The #99L jumped to the lead and the #4 of Andy Bachetti followed by and into second place. Wight managed to hold off Bachetti until lap 20 when he finally got by. Meanwhile, Sheppard and Friesen started on the fifth row in ninth and 10th, respectively. Friesen followed in Sheppard's footsteps up through the field. "I got up through the field pretty good," said Sheppard. "I was working on Larry Wight. I was a little faster, but I couldn't quite get by him. I lost the spot to Stewie and then we had another restart. Tyler Dippel crashed into me and we lost a few more spots. We were able to fight back to the front and got by Decker, Friesen, and others. I was just happy to get back to second." As laps clicked off towards halfway, Sheppard and Friesen got up to third and fourth. Only Larry Wight was in between Bachetti and Sheppard. Sheppard was determined to get around Wight to try reeling in Bachetti who kept amassing sizeable leads over the dueling rivals. The #9s was all over the #99L from lap 40 to lap 59 when Kenny Tremont Jr. brought out the caution flag with a flat left rear tire. "I was working him high and low," said Sheppard of his battle with Wight. "He was running a different line and it was working for him. It blocked the bottom and the top. I couldn't get a great run on the top and or the bottom." On a lap 63 restart, Friesen got around Sheppard for third. Bachetti's lead grew until lap 74 when Adam Pierson brought out the caution flag. When the field got back underway Friesen got up to third while Sheppard was shuffled back several positions after contacting Tyler Dippel. He who showed his displeasure with the #9s under caution. On lap 81, Kenny Tremont Jr. brought the caution out again. The running order was Andy Bachetti in first place, Larry Wight second, and Stewart Friesen in third with 20 to go. Unfortunately, on the restart, Bachetti fired prior to the VP Racing Fuels starting point. The #4 was sent back a row and the restart was attempted again. "We kind of got a raw deal getting put back a row on the restart," said Bachetti. "When you are the leader you should be able to restart like that." Luckily for Bachetti, Drellos came up lame on lap 92, and on the ensuing restart, the #4 took the lead back from Friesen one last time. There was stout competition for the overall hard charger award which goes to the driver who makes up the most positions from their starting spot. The 2021 Mr. DIRT Track USA Hard Charger was Peter Britten, a former force in Hoosier Racing Tire Weekly Championship action at Lebanon, who started 25th and drove his #21A Big Block to sixth. Erick Rudolph, as usual, also passed a lot of cars and drove his #25R up 18 positions, and finished ninth. Local racer Kolby Schoeder did his hometrack fans proud picking up 15 spots to finish an impressive seventh against the best of the best. Next weekend, the Series runs a doubleheader at the Cavalcade Cup Weekend at Weedsport Speedway, Saturday and Sunday (Sept. 11-12). Night one is capped by a 60-lap $7,500 Super DIRTcar Series Feature before the Series takes to the ⅜ mile historic dirt track for 100 laps and $10,000.

HOOSIER PICK? Hoosier Racing Tire Weekly Championship points battles conclude Labor Day Weekend
DIRTcar Sportsman Modified Hoosier Racing Tire Championship to be decided at the finish line, Sheppard, Williamson, Jeseo, Mancuso in the driver's seat for the championship WEEDSPORT, NY - Five divisions of DIRTcar Racing divisions compete in the Hoosier Racing Tire Weekly Championship in the Northeast and the championship battles are rapidly coming to a conclusion. DIRTcar Big Block Modifieds, 358 Modifieds, Sportsman Modifieds, Pro Stocks, and 4 Cylinders will split over $45,000 in purse money. The top-20 drivers in the Big Block, 358, Sportsman and Pro Stocks divisions will be honored and given a payout at the DIRTcar Northeast banquet in November. The DIRTcar 4 Cylinders pay the top-15. Points are calculated by taking the top-16 finishes from any DIRTcar sanctioned race including weekly racing, Series races, and special events like the DIRTcar Sportsman Modified race at Lake View Motor Speedway in South Carolina last January. A perfect score is 960 points. That's 16 wins at 60 points per win. DIRTcar Big Block Modifieds The DIRTcar Big Block Modified battle has a familiar look. Matt Sheppard and Stewart Friesen are locked in battle at the top of the standings for $5,000-to-win and $3,000 for second. The #9S holds the top spot by just 20 points. Not only are these drivers going at it in the Hoosier Racing Tire Weekly Championship standings, but they are also fighting for Super DIRTcar Series points, and the overall track championship at Orange County Fair Speedway, which concludes Thursday, Sept. 2. DIRTcar 358 Modifieds Mat Williamson and Erick Rudolph are once again battling for the DIRTcar 358 Modified weekly championship in both the Hoosier points and at Ransomville Speedway over the track championship. This Canadian/American rivalry has been playing out for years at Super DIRTcar Series races, DIRTcar 358 Modified Series races, and every Friday night at Ransomville Speedway. Williamson got the edge this year and took the $3,000 championship. Billy Dunn, from Watertown, NY, is not only tied with Rudolph in Hoosier points but he is a part of a ferocious track championship battle at Can-Am Speedway with Tim Fuller, another Watertown, NY driver. They recently clashed at Mohawk International Raceway in the first DIRTcar 358 Modified Series race of the year. With two laps to go, leader Mike Mahaney broke a right rear shock. That allowed Tim Fuller and Billy Dunn to race it out side-by-side on the last lap. Dunn won out with a dive to the inside of Turn 1. Those points could make the difference at the end of the weekend. DIRTcar Sportsman Modifieds The closest race is in the DIRTcar Sportsman Modified division between leader Andrew Buff and Matt Janczuk. They are separated by a razor-thin margin of 10 points going into the final weekend of Hoosier points racing. Andrew Buff races weekly at Albany-Saratoga Speedway and Glen Ridge Motorsports Park. He's also been aggressively following the DIRTcar Sportsman Modified Series races competing in multiple regions. Janczuk's points have come as a result of his pile of victories at Fulton Speedway. He is still in the picture for the Hoosier championship. Since the points are determined by the top-16 finishes, it is notable that Janczuk's lowest points night is much lower than Buff's. Janczuk can make up a whopping 16 points in one swing. Here's how it breaks down. Only individual drivers' top-16 finishes are calculated so they drop their lowest score. 60 points is a win, therefore a perfect score is 960. Andrew Buff: 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 56, 56, 52, 52, 52, 52, 52 / Total: 912 / Best 920 Matt Janczuk: 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 60, 56, 56, 56, 56, 56, 52, 46, 44 / Total: 902 / Best 918 If Janczuk wins, he drops the 44 and scores a 60. That means Buff also needs to get a win and he has two chances; Albany-Saratoga Speedway on Friday (Sept. 3) and Glen Ridge Motorsports Park on Sunday (Sept. 5). He could go to Fulton Speedway on Saturday (Sept. 4), as well, and go up against Janczuk in person. It's anyone's race for the $1,000 championship. DIRTcar Pro Stocks Chad Jeseo has been lights out at Lebanon Valley Speedway and Albany-Saratoga Speedway in '21. He has 10 wins between the two tracks. His DIRTcar Pro Stock Hoosier Racing Tire Weekly Championship will net him $1,000 at the banquet in November for his dedication and success in weekly DIRTcar Racing. Sixty points behind Jeseo is Jason Meltz, who has three wins at the same two racetracks. Burton Ward has been cutting his teeth at Can-Am Speedway and has two wins so far in 2021. He's running third in the Hoosier points with 830 total out of a possible 960. DIRTcar 4 Cylinders Dante Mancuso has 11 wins in 21 DIRTcar 4 Cylinder division starts at Ransomville Speedway and Genesee Speedway. With that, he'll take home $500 for the inaugural DIRTcar 4 Cylinder Hoosier Racing Tire Championship. Brad Whiteside and Cole Susice are battling for second place. The top-15 will have the opportunity to walk across the stage at the DIRTcar Northeast Banquet in November. Positions 11-15 receive free DIRTcar memberships for 2022.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: The Valley of Speed Takes Center Stage with $25,500-to-win Mr. DIRT Track USA
Big speed, big brakes, and big-time bravery are what the Super DIRTcar Series stars will need if they want to take home the $25,500 grand prize at Lebanon Valley Speedway on Saturday (Sept. 4).
