7/18/11 Birkhofer Blisters Beach by Don Martin Brian Birkhofer wanted to race at Tri-City Speedway which was holding its biggest race ever but did not know if he was going to be able to do it because he doesn't have a full time crew and the race was taking part later in the week and not a weekend show. A couple of good buddies of his Fred and Darren took time off from work to help Brian. They kicked off the week Wednesday at Deer Creek in Minnesota where Brian finished second behind Josh Richards. Drove back to the shop after the races to get ready for Tri-City Speedway's Battle at the Beach paying $20,000 to win and would be joined by Brian Daugherty of Integra Racing Shocks. The last time Daugherty was at Tri-City he helped Tim McCreadie take home the checkers in a $7,000 to win UMP Special. Daugherty and Birkhofer have worked together for many years and have a great working relationship. It needs to be mentioned that Scott Bloomquist had a streak of five straight wins earlier in the season snapped by Birkhofer at 34 Raceway in Burlington. Bloomer had won four in a row heading into the Battle of the Beach, well it happened again and to that same guy Birkhofer. Brian has always been pretty good at Tri-City, he won the last big race on the big half mile when he damn near lapped the entire field at a Summer National race. He will tell you it took him forever to figure out the big half and when he did finally promoter Kevin Gundaker changed the configuration to the track now which is a 3/8 oval. Coming into the Battle of the Beach Brian had success on the new track with three wins and now has won the first hundred lapper and biggest payout to date of $20,000. It was Brian's third appearance this year at Tri-City, back in May he was involved in a crash in the heat race and just a couple of weeks ago he looked to have a dominant car during the Summer National special when his left front wheel fell off. It just shows you the character of Birkhofer, he might have been down a bit, but he never quit. Thursday Brian qualified in the top three and won the second heat race. He drew the outside of row one for the feature event Friday night. He told me after the heat race the car could have been better and he needed to make a few adjustments. The team made some changes during the afternoon and more would follow after his hot lap session before the main event. When the green flag dropped in the feature polesitter Don O'Neal and Brian raced side by side the first eight laps of the race before Brian pulled away on the high side exiting turn four. It was clear early that his competition on this night were going to have hands full with the "Muscatine Mad Man". Brian once in the lead was running a smooth race on the slick black surface starting to pull away from the field. He ran a flawless race this night taking his time thru the lapped traffic making no mistakes of letting Bloomer get a run on him. Scott got close a few times, getting within a couple of car lengths, but he had the same situation with the lapped cars that Birkhofer did. In the end the best car won the race and everyone acknowledged the fact with the exception of Bloomquist. Scott was unhappy with the luck of the draw and thought it might have been a different race if he would have been on the pole since he was the fastest qualifier and won the first heat race. He had a hundred laps to get the job done on a surface that suits his racing better than anyone. Scott loves slick race tracks and lets face it he got beat at his own game on this night. The guy still finished second and ran a great race. Why can't he be more like Billy Moyer who gave Brian a firm handshake and smiled with him letting him have his moment. Billy gave Brian the respect he deserved, so why can't Scott do this, maybe Scott should have protested another race that saw him get beat my another MB Custom machine. What bothers me the most if Brian would have finished second or third he would have respected the other drivers that finished in front of him similar to what Moyer did. I gained respect for Moyer on this night and lost respect for Scott. The Gundaker's had the largest crowd I have ever seen there on Friday and the track was in great shape, smooth and slick with only one caution the whole race. Brian in Victory lane talked about how much it meant to him winning the first big race at Gundaker's place and having to beat both Moyer and Bloomquist to get the win. Brian Birkhofer has a great attitude and is just a fun guy to be around. There was not one boo in the crown afterwards and why would there be. On the other hand boos for Scott were quite clear after he left the race track without being interviewed, he did come back for the interview and victory lane photo but it was clear he did not want to be there. Scott is a great driver and might be the best dirt late model driver of all time, its his attitude that needs some work. Below are my top twenty rankings in Supers after the Battle at the Beach at Tri-City Speedway last week. Scott Bloomquist has a huge lead over Billy Moyer and Jimmy Owens. Brian Birkhofer and Shannon Babb are both now in the top ten and look to stay. Babb wrapped up the Summer Nationals winning 6 in a row.
Dirty's Top Supers 7/18 1 Scott Bloomquist 72 pts 2 Billy Moyer 48 3 Jimmy Owens 41 4 Don O'Neal 32 5 Darrell Lanigan 31 6 Brian Birkhofer 22 7 Steve Shaver 22 8 Shannon Babb 21 9 Rick Eckert 20 10 Chris Madden 20 11 Josh Richards 20 12 Jonathon Davenport 19 13 Steve Francis 17 14 Jimmy Mars 14 15 Tim McCreadie 14 16 Earl Pearson Jr. 12 17 Will Vaught 11 18 Scott James 10 19 Ray Cook 9 20 Eddie Carrier Jr. 8
