Quick Weekend results
Fonda Speedway 6-21-2008 Results
The IMCA feature events have been very competitive the last couple of weeks at Fonda and Saturday night’s event was no exception as the lead changed hands many times over the last three laps of the event. Kevin Buff led at the start of the 20-lap feature while behind him cars were racing three and four wide on the front stretch to advance their positions.
An early yellow slowed the field on lap one for Danny Ballard who spun in turn three while running second. On the restart, Buff and Bob Banks Jr. rubbed nerf bars as they ran side by side down the frontstretch with Buff able to hold on to the lead.
After starting 10th, defending Track Champion Jeremy Cramer moved into the fourth position on lap five just before the yellow came out again for three time winner Beau Ballard who had some front end damage on the left front after making contact with the wall on the inside of turn four. He was done for the evening at that point.
As the field refired Cramer worked his way forward as he got by first his brother Jim and then Banks to take over the second position on lap seven with Buff now out to a four car length lead. Cramer caught the leader by lap 11 and one lap later he was side by side with Buff for the lead.
Buff held the position at that point and on lap 13 he and Cramer were nose to nose at the line to complete the lap. On lap 14 on the inside of the backstretch it was Cramer who took over the lead but the race was far from over. Yellow flags slowed the field on laps 17 & 18 with the lap 18 caution thrown for Jim Cramer and Buff after Jim Cramer made contact with Buff in turn four and the two cars spun while racing for the second position.
Defending IMCA Track Champion Jeremy Cramer went on to his first win of the season and the 12th of his career at Fonda over Banks, Danny Ody, Danny Ballard, and Jeff Jones.
“It is about time that I didn’t see any of the wrecks on the track as they were all behind me for a change,” Cramer said in victory lane. “It has been awhile since I have been here in victory lane. I have been running a brand new motor in the car all season long but we put our old motor in the car this week and tonight we were able to win.”
