LAWRENCEBURG SPEEDWAY
LAWRENCEBURG, INDIANA

AUGUST 1, 2009

LAWRENCEBURG CHEVROLET SPRINTS (18 cars)

Gulick able to get it done on the dirt! 

Coleman Gulick just turned 16 years old.  Because of

that, he ran his first ever USAC Silver Crown race on

Friday night in Iowa.  On Saturday, Gulick was back on

 the dirt at The Lawrenceburg Speedway.  The

Binghampton, NY Native found himself in Victory Lane

for the second time in his young career.  18

Lawrenceburg Chevrolet Sprint Cars were in action. 

When the feature rolled off, Tim Spindler and Jonathan

 Hendrick led the field to the drop of the green flag. 

Hendrick was able to take the lead on lap 1 as Tim

Spindler flipped in turn 4.  After flips by both Mike

Miller and JJ Hughes, the field would settle down

behind Hendrick and race under green for several

laps.  Hendrick was moving well through the field, but

so was Coleman Gulick.  Gulick caught Hendrick in

some lapped traffic and motored around Hendrick. 

Hendrick continued to run the low line as Gulick found

his speed on the high side.  When the dust settled

Gulick held on for his first win in 2009, and his second

 overall at the Burg.  Hendrick held on to second,

Andrew Elson was third, Joss Moffatt, and Chad

Boespflug rounded out the top 5.  Heat race winners

were Tim Spindler, Jonathan Hendrick, and Chad

Boespflug.  Point leader Joss Moffatt was able to

increase his lead in the point standings.  Shawn

Westerfeld, the closest contender in the points, had

early race trouble but rallied back to finish 8.  The

Lawrenceburg Chevrolet Sprint cars return to the track

 on Saturday August 8.

Lawrenceburg “kind” to Kinder 

Chad Kinder is arguably one of the best modified

drivers in the midwest.  Everywhere he goes, he is used

to winning.  When he rolled his car onto the dirt track

at Lawrenceburg, he had his sights set on victory lane,

and with good reason.   Kinder would start from the

outside of the front row and take the lead quickly on

lap 1.  Pole sitter JD Largent and Joey Kramer got

together sending Kramer spinning.   Both drivers would

 retire from the event after being asked to leave the

track for rough driving.  As the green flag flew again, it

appeared Kinder would cruise his way to victory lane. 

But, the race did get exciting at the front as defending

track champion Jeff Harris followed Kinder’s tire

tracks turn for turn.  Harris made the move around

Kinder and took the lead away from Kinder.  Harris

had been trying lap after lap, and finally it paid off

and he became the leader.  Just as he cleared the

Kinder car, the yellow flag flew.  Harris would have to

fall back to second as scoring had not completed the

lap Harris had overtaken Kinder.  With just a few laps

 remaining, Harris was unable to mount any sort of

challenge on Kinder as Kinder lead from green to

checkered to pick up the feature win.  Harris, who is

going for back to back track championships finished

second followed by Kyle Herbert, Derek Groomer, and

Scotty Mattlin.  Heat race winners were JD Largent,

Kinder, Sean Johnson who got his first heat race win,

and Jeff Harris.   Jason Largent won the B main.  The

Budwesier UMP modifieds return to The Burg on

Saturday August 8.
