Randy Crunkilton and Will Walls take scramble cars features

HANOVER, PA, 5/21/05 -- Randy Crunkilton showed his driving experience in the first scramble car feature of the night (Saturday May 21st) at Trail-Way Speedway's "Sunfest". Crunkilton took the lead away from Josh Smith on the fourth lap, and led to the final lap of the feature race.

Robert Tracy who started towards the rear of the field made his way up to third and challenged Smith and Crunkilton for the top two spots, but coming out of the fourth turn on the final lap, Crunkilton and Smith proved to be stronger.

Completing the top five were Smith in second, Tracy in third, Fred Chasteen in the fourth position, and Brent Eckert in fifth.

Will Walls was victorious in the second scramble car feature of the night. Walls took the lead away from polesitter Kevin Henry on the ninth lap and led the rest of the 12 laps to take his first win of the 2005 racing season.

Following behind Walls was Henry, Buddie Jeffers, Brian Myers, and Jerry Kress.

Figure 8 racing returned to the 1/3 mile oval, bringing exciting action as is customary with the division. Carl Davis Jr. picked up the first figure 8 feature win of the year, leading 11 laps of the 12 lap event. Davis took the lead away from Buddie Jeffers on the second lap.

In junk car demolition action, Carl Davis Jr. beat and banged his way to victory. Completing the top three were Jimmy Tyson and Josh Schrum.

Brad Kress, Josh Schrum, Richard Wolfe and Carl Davis Jr. picked up the junk car heats.

In the junk car best appearance contest, Brad Kress came away victorious.

Misti Kopp was victorious in the powder puff demo divison. Following Kopp across the line was Amber Weaver who is no beginner to the powder puff class and Margaret Wolfe as well who knows her way around Trail-Way Speedway, completed the top three.

In Starlite Limited racing action Bryan Green picked up the feature win. Sharpsburg, Maryland's Green led all 12 laps of the racing event. Chase Eckert who started the feature in the last position made his way up to the second spot not too long after the green flag. Eckert raced with Green for the lead, but lapped traffic became a factor after several laps. A caution on lap 11 resulted in a green/checkered finish giving Green the win.

6 cylinder Starlite Oval action saw Harry Shipe take the win over youngster Kyle Martin. Martin led from the drop of the green until the ninth lap when Shipe took over, leading the rest of the race to the checkered.

In the 4 cylinder Starlite Ovals, Wayne Kopp remained consistent and took the checkered flag. Kopp led the final three laps of the 12-lap race. Polesitter Josh Ulrich led the first lap yielding the lead to Joe Racine who led from the second lap to the ninth lap. Racine fell back a few positions once Kopp passed him for the lead.
