HANTZ GRABS FLAT ROCK 7-UP 125 WIN; HUGO TAKES ENDURO, RINGGER ENDURO CHAMP
(FLAT ROCK, Michigan - September 8, 2012) - It was a night of firsts at Flat Rock Speedway Saturday as Angola, IN driver Scott Hantz held back Johnny VanDoorn and Jason Dietsch to win the exciting 7-Up 125 lap feature for the ARCA/CRA Super Series Late Models, Scott’s first Flat Rock win and the Series initial visit to the track. Bobby Hugo edged Danny Bennett by 2 car lengths to grab his first victory in the 300 lap Enduro championship race, and Matt Ringger’s 6th place run was enough to seal the deal on his first-ever Enduro championship.
The first visit ever to Flat Rock by the ARCA/CRA cars was a great race as the battle up front waged on throughout the 125 lap contest. West Virginia driver Travis Braden started things off by setting fast time at 12:228. Travis drew an 8 for the inversion, giving Kenzie Ruston the pole starting spot. Pat Zorn led lap 1, but Ruston took control on lap 2 and led for 6 laps. Hantz spun on lap 7 to bring out the yellow flag. Braden had to check up to avoid the incident, ending up with some damage and forcing him to the pits. VanDoorn, not satisfied with his machine, also pitted and rejoined the race after making some adjustments. The man on the move was Nate Caruth, who grabbed the top spot away from Ruston on lap 9 and set the pace through lap 90. The yellow flags were only for minor incidents and the pace of the race was quick, but the competition for position was fierce throughout the pack.

Flat
Rock, Michigan-July 6, 2013: For the third straight week, Flat Rock
Speedway’s Saturday night race card was a victim of rain. The 60th Anniversary celebration

Much of the practice was completed before the rains came
just after 4 p.m. After a nearly 1 hour
rain delay, the track was dried, but, again, the rain returned and became quite
heavy at times.
The Anniversary event is now set for next Saturday, July
13. The Moran Chevrolet Late Models,
Parts Galore Figure 8’s and DTS Drive Train Specialists Street Stocks will each
run 60 lap feature events. The evening
will be capped off with the fireworks display.

while Corrigan Race Fuels will support the Street Stock event.
Race
time will be 6:30 p.m.
Information regarding the Diamond Racing Products Joy
Fair Memorial 100 for the ARCA Late Models that was to be a part of Saturday’s July
6 show will be released later this week.
An incredible field of 36 Late Models, 35 Street Stocks
and 15 Figure 8’s were at the track for the special night of racing before the
rain set in for the evening.
Please check the track webpage Monday afternoon for gate
times. Grandstand rain checks from July
6 may be used for any event remaining on the 2013 Flat Rock Speedway
schedule. Rain checks must be exchanged
at the ticket window upon arrival to the speedway.
