Glenn Waterland took the win on September 4th at Byers to make his first trip to victory lane with the wings on board. After a great battle with Steve Becker early, Waterland took the advantage on the only yellow flag restart of the night. Becker in the 31 came home in second.
Highlight of the night was seeing number 60 Gary Helkin take the final spot on the podium after a race long battle with the 9F of Andy Flood. Gary shows his commitment to the sport every week as he makes the long journey from Montrose, Colorado every week to race with the RMLSA so it's great to see that dedication rewarded with a podium place.
The top five was rounded out by Andy Flood and John Frasier in the 11.

Glenn Waterland in the 11c took his third win of the year last Saturday on a superbly prepared I-76 Speedway. Waterland started from the 8th spot on the grid and quickly moved through to the lead on lap 3, from here he survived two cautions to pull away for the win.
In second place was the ever consistent Troy Ullery in the 1T. Troy started in the 11th spot and had one close call as he rode a wheel as he made his way through traffic.
Number 5, Brandon Steele made a welcome return to the track and showed his class to take the final podium spot after 3 years away from the drivers seat.
Steve Becker in the 31 enjoyed a strong night to come through from 13th on the grid to finish in fourth. Unfortunately Steve gave up a the final podium spot on the last lap as Steele fought his way through.
The top 5 was rounded out by car 7, Scott Wilson, who also took a heat race win on the night to make yet another strong points haul. This result moves Scott up to second in the points.

Uncharacteristically there was damage to some of the cars, with Johnny Boos, Davy McCray, Paul Babich, Andy Flood and Dale Johnston all ending up with bent parts and pieces. Let's hope the damage wasn't too bad and we'll see them all back soon.

Once again Devan's Race Videos has put together an excellent clip of all the great action, check out the 4 wide racing early on!

Troy Ullery made it 5 wins for the season on Saturday, August 22, 2015 to continue his domination of the year so far.
Ullery started 12th on the grid and made his way through the field with some great passes both high and low to take the win. After winning the first heat Johnny Boos in the 24B also had a great drive through the field to second place. Making his first visit to Calhan this year was Paul Babich in the 69, surely not his last after a great performance to finish third on the podium.
The top 5 was completed by Scott Wilson who won the third heat race and Tim Snelling who made his first trip to the scales this year after a great battle early on with Cullen Pottaker up the front.

Special mention to Cullen Pottaker this week, who started the main event on the pole and showed great form to lead the early running. Unfortunately mechanical gremlins prevented Cullen from finishing the race, but if this young racer can put together this type of form for the rest of the year he will surely get some great results.

Once again thanks to Missy ullery for this great video of all the action.
