Monday April 26, 2010 HENDRICKSON FLIES AGAIN TO VICTORY LANE AT BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY BRIDGEPORT, NJ (April 25, 2010) On Little League Night at Bridgeport
Speedway, Wade Hendrickson, “The Flying Farmer” from Lawrenceville,
NJ, was the victor in the Big Block Modified feature. In the Crate
Modified event, Travis Hill was the winner. Pat Conaway outlasted the
competition in the Proformance Cuts Outlaw Stock race and Matt Budd
won the Rookie race.
Polesitter Chic Cossaboone grabbed the early lead in the 25-Lap Big
Block Modified feature with Wade Hendrickson, Ryan Watt and Rich
Acolia in pursuit. The first caution of the event occurred on lap 4 as
Jimmy Chester stopped at the pit entrance in turn 2. Acolia, who began
to smoke heavily prior to the yellow flag, pulled off the track when
action resumed and Richie Pratt, Jr. assumed the fourth spot. As the
laps clicked off, the top six of Cossaboone, Hendrickson, Watt, Pratt,
Jr., Matt Harrell and Chad James began to pull away from the field.
Hendrickson was starting to apply heavy pressure on Cossaboone when
the yellow lights illuminated for Ron Roberts on lap 11. When green
flag racing got back underway, Cossaboone survived another challenge
for the lead by Hendrickson but Pratt, Jr. moved past Watt for third.
Hendrickson was making another challenge for the lead on lap 14 when
Matt Harrell lost his brakes and slammed into the turn one wall
bringing out the red flag. Following the stoppage, Hendrickson used
the high side of the track to wrestle the lead away from Cossabooone.
Pratt Jr. and Watt quickly followed Hendrickson past Cossaboone. Once
in front, Hendrickson led the remaining laps and visited Bridgeport’s
victory lane for the second time this season. Pratt, Jr. came home in
second with Watt finishing in third. Fourth place was claimed by Brian
Kressley and Cossaboone wound up in fifth. Hendrickson and Pratt, Jr.
each picked up a heat race victory.
In the 20-Lap Crate Modified race, Travis Hill grabbed his eleventh
career win at Bridgeport Speedway. John Cavallaro led the first three
laps before the eighth place starting Hill took over the lead. Hill
led the remaining laps for his first win of the year. Second place
went to Eric Kormann, who started in eleventh. Chuck Hopkins was third
with Neal Williams getting fourth and Frank Dorry, Jr. taking the
fifth spot in the final rundown. The winners of the Crate Modified
qualifying events were Williams, Hopkins and Kormann.
In the 15-Lap Proformance Cuts Outlaw Stock race, Pat Conaway overtook
Jeremy Doerr for the lead on lap 6 and cruised home to his
thirty-second career win in the division. Karl Wagner was the
runner-up with Jeff Dirkes getting third place. Rick Broschard and
Russell Werst completed the top five finishers.
Matt Budd led all eight laps to win the Rookie race. Kyle Newcomb,
Jeff Duprez and Troy Burger followed Budd in order across the finish
line.
