The Auto Value Bumper to Bumper Super Sprints made their second appearance of the season at Auto City Speedway Saturday, and put on a stellar performance for the large crowd of fans.
Point leader Jeff Bloom started off the night by setting fast time of 13.20 seconds on the ½ mile oval. The top 10 cars were within half a second of each other.
Heat wins were registered by Aaron Katz over Chad Goff and Bloom; Troy Underwood over Dennis Craft and Jason Blonde; and Ike Beasley ahead of Ryan Katz and Johnny Scherer, who had a lot of work after a crash Friday night during practice in Canada.
Bloom rolled a 10, putting himself into 10th starting spot for the 30-lap feature. Bill Tyler jumped out to the initial lead from his pole position start, followed by outside pole-sitter Dorman Snyder. By lap 15, Bloom had picked his way through traffic, and passed Snyder for 2nd, while at the same time, Tyler lost oil pressure and was slowing as the top 3 entered turn 1. Once Bloom got by Snyder and Tyler, he methodically picked off lapped traffic through the 12th position, and won the feature by half a lap over Mike Ling, Snyder, Goff, R. Katz, Craft, Brian Lay, Jimmy McCune, Beasley and Underwood.
The Auto Value Bumper to Bumper Super Sprints traveling series will appear at Toledo Speedway this Friday night, June 15 for their annual dual show with the ISMA Supermodifieds.
