BOB FRUIT won the inaugural Short Track Trucks.com Challenge Series 30 lap feature on a warm Saturday night at the Mottville Speedway! Fruit passed early leader Shaun Bergdoll on lap 7 and then held off Keith Wioncek for the win. Bergdoll settled for 3^rd followed by Jesse Worcester, Rod Morrison and Jim Froling.

Fruit won the dash over Bergdoll and Wioncek and Cary Cole took the heat over Fruit and Worcester.

The trucks return to Mottville on August 16.

Charley Krontz won his 3^rd street stock feature in 4 tries as he took the 12 lapper over season points leader Robert Sutton. Results were the same in the heat.

Mini Stock season points leader Eric Root won his 7^th feature of the season with a 12 lap victory over John Yoder and leading rookie Glenna Sargent. Results were the same in the heat.

Two time defending Mini Thunder Car champion and current points leader Fred Garrett fought it out for 15 laps with Steve Clifford in the 15 lap feature before coming home with his 21^st feature win of the season! Clifford was a close 2^nd followed by Root, Derk Sargent and Dave Smith. Garrett won the dash and Clifford won the heat.

Scott Denning came to Mottville for the first time and won the kart 12 lap feature over Mike Zehr. Results were the same in the heat and Zehr moved to 2^nd in the season points standings.

Sutton has built a new street stock and is raffling off his street stock truck #71 with tickets selling for $10 each! So if you ever wanted to own a street stock this one is “turn key” and ready to race!

The trucks really put on a good show! They had 8 trucks for their first race ever but had mechanical woes with 2 of them. They expect around 15-18 trucks when they return to Mottville in August.

It was great to see Gary Denzel back at Mottville! Gary was spectating and late last season he blew the engine on his then Bomber car but told me he has been remodeling his house this year but will have his street stock back out to Mottville yet this season and in 2004 he plans to run a full season at Mottville!

Richard Allbee, Rich Allbee and Tom Pearson did a great job on the pit tower installing a new floor and new stairs railing and new window! Plus Richard and Rich also had the entire grounds mowed and looking great!

Josh Krontz may well have the first Bomber car! Charley says Josh has the car and it will not take much to get it going! Remember Bombers are 6 cylinder, front wheel drive and very stock! Someone is going to start pretty soon and end up winning a season championship!

Speaking of season points championships Derk Sargent will probably take over the MTC points lead again Sunday as Garrett has a truck trip to Louisville!

Charlie Krontz should move into 3^rd in the SS points after Sunday!

Richard Allbee hot lapped Garret’s car and as a result suffered back pain and had to turn his car over to Root for the feature!

Sure was nice to have 80 degree temps for the first time since April!

Sunday all father’s buying a ticket or pit pass will receive a free hot dog and soft drink! Plus we expect a pretty good field of cars and some exciting racing!

Now less than two weeks until our first Friday Night Special on June 27 when the MS run 50 laps for $250 to win! Plus the SS, MTC and Karts will also run. 2^nd powder puff of the season is just two weeks away on June 28!
