Local auto racing roundup

(JAMIE BIRD/FOR THE EXPRESS) Heat-race winner Alex Hill prepares in her car for an upcoming race.

By JAMIE BIRD

For The Express

It was the weekend, so of course that means RAIN. One track that actually got the whole race in was Hummingbird Speedway. It was an overcast, cool-spring night that welcomed fans and drivers from all over the area, including from three different states to their season opener. Five-time track champion, Bob Connor, was the flagman. It also began the 55th anniversary season of racing at the speedway. Feature Winner’s on Opening Night included: Rich Anderson of Glen Campbell in the Sunny 106.5 FM Pure Stocks, Michael Lake of Uniontown in the BWP Bats Super Late Models, Bruce Hartzfeld of Rockton in the Cypress Clock & Gift Shop Street Stocks, Zack Frantz of Reynoldsville in the Four-Cylinders and Nick Erskine of Bells Landing in the Swanson Heavy Duty Truck Repair Semi-Late Models.

A lot of our other tracks got some heat races/ hot laps in before the rains came, including Clinton County, Selinsgrove, Lincoln Speedway.

Next weekend will be the Outlaw tune-up show at Williams Grove…weather permitting of course.
