Brady Short Wins at Lawrenceburg!




Brady Short, from Bedford, Indiana won for the second


time at Lawrenceburg Speedway since the track was



reconfigured to a 3/8 mile high banked oval. 23



Lawrenceburg Chevrolet Sprint Cars were on hand as



the season is well underway. Although Short was the



pole sitter, Chris Windom, coming off a win the night



before at Bloomington would take the lead from the



outside front row. Windom would lead for the first 6



laps, but it wasn’t without excitement. Brady Short and



Windom battled side by side for a few laps before Short



was able to stay in front of Windom. Short was not



challenged again and went on to win the 25 lap feature



event. Current point leader, Robert Ballou, started back



on the outside of row 10, charged his way to the front to



finish in fourth. Following Short across the line were



Windom, Nick Faas, Ballou, and Coleman Gulick. Heat



race winners for the night were Short and Windom, and



Blake Fitzpatrick. Robert Ballou remains the point leader



for The Lawrenceburg Chevrolet Sprint Cars. The



Lawrenceburg Chevrolet Sprint Cars return to the race

Budweiser UMP Modifieds (27 cars)



Groomer beat Groomer!



19 year old Derek Groomer had much to celebrate after



winning the feature race at Lawrenceburg. Not only did



he win the race, he beat his older brother Ralph to the



finish line. 27 Budweiser UMP modifieds were all racing



to get one of the 20 spots for the nights 20 lap feature.




The green flag would drop with Multiple time track



champion Brad Weick on the pole alongside Scotty



Mattlin. Mattlin would charge to the lead but Weick



was in hot pursuit. Just as Weick was making his move,



he lost control and spun out, sending him to the back of



the pack for the restart. As Mattlin, Jeff Harris, battled



for the lead, Derek Groomer who started inside row 4,



was moving his way to the front. He wrestled the lead



away from Mattlin on lap 9, and would not look back.




Rick Bingham was the only other driver to challenge



Groomer, but Bingham spun out in turn 2 trying to make



a bid for the lead. Derek’s older brother, Ralph finished



second followed by Brad Weick who came all the way



back to third, Scotty Mattlin, and Joe Justice. Heat Race

Chuck,

Were you at the Burg last night? Hope you were cause the mod feature was awesome. Track was slick and mods were continuously three wide. A few good battles in the sprint car race but Windom just couldn't get Short in 1 and 2. Good racing, early night and best of all another saturday night at the Burg!!!!!

Relax, Dave, I was just showing a warped sense of humor (hence the smiley). I utilize IOW first whenever seeking information and results from any given track on any given night. I welcome any information posted!
