Central Pa Racing Scene
| Website Updates/News |
Hello and welcome back to Central PA Racing Scene. I am your host once again Bill McIntyre. The 2010 racing season is trying to get started once again, but our old friend's mother nature and her husband old man winter have had other plans.
Lincoln has had to cancel the first two weeks of the racing season due to all the snow that we got a few weeks ago. For those that don't live around central pa, we had over 45 inches of snow in a 2 week period back in the middle of February and it has played hell on the race track. Last week the snow had yet to start melting and then this week we finally got some great warm weather and the snow started to go away, but that caused another problem, and that was muddy parking lots. The lots at Lincoln where still covered as of Saturday morning, with a few bare spots peaking through at some spots. Fred Putney was out on Saturday when I drove by clearing off the snow with the grader, but the grounds where still way to soft to have any vehicles on it. Lincoln made the right call by waiting 1 more week to get their season opener in, as anyone who remembers the parking lots a few years ago will attest, they can be hell.
Joey Saldana Scores First Win of 2010 at Thunderbowl Raceway
| World of Outlaws |
Tulare, CA-March 6, 2010-For many drivers, picking up the first win of a new season is one of the toughest feats to accomplish in racing. After being victorious 21 times overall last season with the World of Outlaws, Joey Saldana certainly knew the way to the winners circle heading into 2010. He came close to winning each of the first four races this season, finishing in the runner-up spot in three of those.
Saldana broke though in a big way on Saturday night at Groppetti Automotive Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, California before a huge crowd to score his first A-Feature win of the season to earn $10,000 in the 35-lap contest aboard the Budweiser Maxim. It was the 60th A-Feature triumph of his career with the World of Outlaws.
