The first of 13 270 Wingless Micro Sprint Cars pushed onto
the track for hot laps at Seven on Wednesday June 25th, 2014
at Shellhammers Speedway. After the first session the cars
were getting around the speedway at ten second time frames
nearing 50 miles per hour. As the second set of hot laps rolled
out, the skies began to darken and it became apparent that
this show would need a push to get in. (No pun intended) The
stands filled with eager fans ready for heat race number one
that had a nice line up with a lot of potential. Josh Schaffer was on row one with one of the original driver
to turn laps at the track, Chris James. Row two was Mike Rutherford and Richie Hartman the two quickest
guys in the hot lap sessions. At the drop of the green Hartman went from fourth to first with some quick
moves. Rutherford was in second by lap two and they would stay that way for the finish. Heat race number
two started with some excitement. Toby Blumenshine and Steve Drevicki traded spots on lap one from the
front row. Blumenshine went for the same piece of real estate as Ronald Helmick bringing out the races
only yellow flag. Blumenshine went back to the top spot to stay. Blumenshine got a little out of shape
coming down the back stretch after two to go and Drevicki almost flipped after contact. Miraculously
Drevicki never stopped and minus Blumenshine the field came to the checkered under a blanket.
Blumenshine joined Hartman on row one of the feature.
