Schuyler Earns First Win, But Hebing Scores, Too!
ASCS Patriot, Woodhull (N.Y.) Raceway, Eriez Speedway
Saturday
Chuck Hebing spun and dropped a cylinder over the course of a wacky night at Woodhull Raceway, but for the second year in a row Hebing put his potent ride in victory lane at the Highbanks.
Hebing moved around Bryan Howland on a lap-seven restart and then held off the field in the closing laps with an aching motor to win the ASCS Patriot season opener for the third year in a row. The two drag-raced to the finish line with Hebing winning by a car length and denying Howland his first victory in two years.
Jeff VanDusen finished third ahead of Jeff Cook and Justin Barger in the top five.
The finish:
Chuck Hebing, Bryan Howland, Jeff VanDusen, Jeff Cook, Justin Barger, Tim Kelly, Lance Yonge, Jared Zimbardi, Blake Breen, Dave Wickham, Bobby Breen, Mike Stetler, George Suprick, Jimmy Broderick, Chris Muhleisen, Daniel Lampron, Gary Troutman, Ray Preston, Howard Singer, Don Adamczyk, Chris Weiss, Derek Jonathan.
Sunday
Running literally on his last drops of fuel, John Schuyler’s first-career sprint-car victory came by .01-second over Don Adamczyk Sunday during ASCS Patriot Region action at Eriez Speedway.
Schuyler, a former winner at Eriez in late models, led all 25 laps, but felt his car begin to starve for fuel on lap 21 and sputter during a caution on lap 22.
Bryan Howland finished a car length behind the leaders in the third. Bubba Broderick and Kyle Moffitt rounded out the top five.
The finish:
John Schuyler, Don Adamczyk, Bryan Howland, Bubba Broderick, Kyle Moffitt, Ray Preston, Chris Muhleisen, Gary Troutman, Dave Wickham, Joe August, Jr., T.J. Newton, Robbie Shuttleworth, Jeremy Barnard, Bruce Dewick, Scott Bonnell, Jared Zimbardi.
