UMP DIRTcar Summer Nationals Night 14: VanWormer Powers To Second Victory Of Tour At Peoria Speedway 

PEORIA, IL – July 1, 2008 – By Kellen Burns/DIRTcar Racing P.R. -  

Winning certainly never gets old for Pinconning, Mich.’s Jeep VanWormer. 

The 33-year-old driver enjoyed another UMP DIRTcar Summer Nationals triumph on Tuesday night, visiting RacingJunk.com Victory Lane for the second time on the 2008 tour at Peoria Speedway. 

VanWormer hopes that his checkered flag sets him off on a strong run down the Summer Nationals homestretch. 

“Hopefully we can win the rest of them (Summer Nationals events),” remarked the chauffeur of the popular No. 55, who sits fourth in the tour’s points standings. “That wouldn’t hurt my feelings a bit.” 

VanWormer saw things go his way early in the evening, using a strong qualifying run and heat-race victory to position himself on the inside of the second row for the start of the 40-lap feature. 

“We just had a good qualifying run and heat race,” said VanWormer, who earned $6,000 for his eighth career Summer Nationals win. “We drew third (for the A-Main) and that put us where we wanted to be – right on the bottom.”  

VanWormer overtook defending Summer Nationals champion and current points leader Dennis Erb Jr. of Carpentersville, Ill., for the lead on the second lap and never looked back. With the race running caution-free after an opening-lap slowdown, VanWormer maintained solid command and crossed the finish line ahead of former Summer Nationals champion Kevin Weaver of Gibson City, Ill.,  

Weaver used his familiarity with Peoria Speedway to his advantage. The runner-up finish was his best of the 2008 Summer Nationals. 

“I’ve got a few laps around this place,” said Weaver, who started fourth. “We just have a pretty good Bill West car and we’ve just been working on it. I’m hoping to put some more good finishes together.” 

Weaver was unsure if he could have challenged VanWormer with the help of a late-race caution flag, but he still took positives from the second-place finish. 

“It’s hard to change your line and know where someone is behind you to try and pass someone else,” said Weaver. “It would have been tough to pass him.” 

UMP DIRTcar hotshoe Wes Steidinger of Fairbury,Ill., came through with another strong showing. Starting fifth, ‘The Fairbury Flyer’ used the low line to earn a hard fought third-place finish. 

“I think we might have been better (than VanWormer and Weaver),” said Steidinger. “It got kind of one-lane on the bottom there.” 

The competitive Steidinger took the third-place finish in stride on a track most drivers found hard to pass on late in the distance. 

“Maybe I could have squeezed by them guys,” the pilot of the Rayburn No. J1 said of challenging the leaders. “It would have taken me several laps. I think we would have needed 100 laps instead of 40.” 

Brian Shirley of Chatham, Ill., finished fourth after slipping by Erb in the final laps, leaving Erb fifth at the finish. That left Erb atop the Summer Nationals points standings by just three markers over Shirley after 14 events. 

Forty UMP DIRTcar Super Late Models packed the pits at Peoria Speedway, with Steidinger’s lap of 12.522 seconds fastest in the group qualifying session. 

Heat races were won by Erb, Randy Korte of Highland, Ill., Weaver and VanWormer, while Steve Sheppard Jr. of New Berlin, Ill., captured the B-Main and Steve Lance Jr. of Cuba, Ill., topped the C-main. 

The UMP DIRTcar Summer Nationals continues on Wednesday night (July 2) at Morgan County Speedway in Jacksonville, Ill.

REG. RACE PROGRAM ON  SAT . MAY 24 , 2008

PEORIA —
 
Winning was the second most important thing to Tim Lance at Peoria Speedway on Saturday night. What took precedence? His daughter, and a pool party. "My daughter was at a neighborhood swimming party, so I went there to spend some time with my family in between the heat race and the feature," said Lance, who won the Late Model feature for the second week in a row. Roger Rebholz, who finished second, and had what was his fastest car of the season, probably wished Lance would have stayed in the pool. He was right on Lance’s back-left quarter-panel much of the race, but three late cautions did Rebholz a disservice because Lance was so good on the restarts. "He was pretty strong," Lance said of Rebholz. "I tried to run through the middle of the track, but he had a nice run going up top."
 
Dale Munson won the Modified feature, battling Matt Dillon for most of the race.
Dillon sat on the pole and led the first 14 laps of the feature until a flat tire forced him to the pits on a late caution. "If (Dillon) hadn’t gone to the pits I was going right back to the top (of the track) again," Munson said. "He was probably not going to come off the bottom."
 
Scott Schoenner and Bob Simpson raced to the line in the Street Stocks, with Schoenner getting the victory."It went flat on the last lap when the other car ran into me," said Schoenner of a flat tire caused when he and Simpson touched on the final straightaway.
 
Brad Willis Jr. bested dad Brad Willis Sr. for the Sportsman win and Zac Kuhel won his second Hornet feature.

ERB TAKES THE BOHLANDER 100 AT PEORIA SPEEDWAY
 by Jeff Adams
(PEORIA, IL) 2007 UMP National Champion Dennis Erb of Carpentersville dueled 2007 NASCAR Illinois State Champion Tim Lance, for 50 laps, before finally making the pass for the lead on lap 87and holding on to win the “Don Bohlander 100” for Parkinson’s research at Peoria Speedway Saturday night.
On a cool night, the action was red-hot, with a new track configuration proving to be nearly record-breaking fast. In time trials, Davenport, IA driver Brian Harris missed the all-time track record by a mere .016 with a lap of 12.481. The top 6 qualifiers were locked into the feature event, and re-drew for the top 6 starting positions. Heat races were won by Steve Lance, Jr. and Charley Hess, setting the 20 car starting field.
Lance and Hebron, IN driver Shawn Toczek paced the field for the start of the 100 lap feature, with Lance finally getting the jump after 2 aborted re-starts. Lance held the lead over several caution periods until Erb was on his back bumper on lap 35. Erb started pressuring Lance heavily at the mid-way point, and the pair raced each other hard until Erb finally made the pass stick on lap 87. Erb held on for the $4,000 win, Lance finished 2nd, with Ryan Dauber, Lance, Jr., and Wes Steidinger rounding out the top 5. Only 7 cars were running at the checkered flag.
Joe Markle won the Sportsman feature, with Matt Musgrave winning the Hornet feature. The races were held in honor of 10 time Track Champion Don Bohlander, who has been stricken with Parkinson’s Disease. Over $14,000 was raised for Parkinson’s research and will be donated in Bohlanders’ name.
Peoria Speedway will host a regular program next Saturday night featuring Late Models, Modifieds, Sportsman, Street Stocks, Bombers and Hornets.
