July 10, 2003....UMP Summernationals

The annual 100 lap race at Macon has a new sponsor, now called the 95Q Behind Pit Wall 100, but some things are still the same. In years past this race was billed as the locals against the travelers. For only the third time since the beginning in 1981, an out of state driver won, with Terry English showing the way. Bob Pierce turned in fast time at 10.600, less than one tenth of a second off the track record, of the 40 late models on hand. English beat Joe Ross Jr in the dash to set up the front row for the feature. Heats went to Billy Moyer, Kevin Weaver, Shannon Babb and Kyle Logue. Semi features went to Justin Allgaier and Garret Durrett. Ross started out with the lead, only to have Don O'Neal pass him on lap 3, then O'neal would pull in 4 laps later. During a rash of yellow flag fever, the field got strung out. As the laps wore down, several other challengers would fall by the wayside, including Moyer, Babb, Van Wormer, Ed Bauman.

finish:

96 Terry English

15 Joe Ross, Jr

STEVE SHEPPARD, JR. claims Might Macon checkers..Complete Results ................Thanks to our reporter SMASH!!!!

Steve Sheppard, Jr. bested the field tonight at the Mighty Macon Speedway claiming the checkered flag and the winners accolades in his #5 Sheppard Auto Sales C.J. Rayburn chassis.

Roger Brickler began the evening by recording the fastest lap of the 19 cars on hand with a time of 11.308. Joe Ross, Jr. did not attempt a qualifying lap and Butch Smith was involved in an altercation in the parking lot prior to any on track activities and had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance, and was therefore also unable to attempt a qualifying lap.

The dash was won by Brian Shirley.

The first heat was topped by Matt Beadles over Brad Shelly, Mike Mudd, Jimmy Burwell, Tim Kreher, Rick Hamilton, Doug Heemer, Nick Bauman and Vince Grondzki.

The second heat was won by Jim Howard over Shirley, Ed Bauman, Virgil Bilbry, Sheppard, Jr., Kerby Damery and John Graham.

Following Sheppard at the stripe was Bilbry, Grondzki, Damery, Howard, Bauman, Graham, E. Bauman, Mudd, Burwell, Brickler, Kreher and Beadles.

Car 71 Jeff Graham was shoved into the wall hard during the heat race and had to be removed from car on a backboard. He was taken in for observation. I never heard anymore about him, I hope all is well.

It was a wild night at Macon, tempers flared on and off the track. Richie Webb and the local police were busy tonight.
