Cruzin’ Raceways Chandler, AZ
April 2, 2005
Spray Glue 12 This race
started out real close with Josh Bauer and Kenny Richens running
the same number of laps in the first 2 heats with Adam Kirchhoffer
only one lap back. Josh had problems in heat 3 and Kenny extended
his lead to all of 3 laps. Chris Rodriguez Jr moved into a tie for
the lead with Kenny but could not close the deal, having car problems
in the next heat allowing Adam back into second place. Kenny continued
to lead until the end taking the win ahead of Adam with TJ Albu
taking the final podium spot. Chris dropped down to 4th ahead of
Josh Bauer and Pete Christiansen.
Group 12 Once again it
was Kenny Richens playing a major role and leading early. TJ Albu
was close early but slipped away allowing Kenny to take a wire-to-wire
win. TJ took 2nd with Dale Garcia taking 3rd ahead of Lawrence Roberts,
Gary Mayeda, Adam Kirchhoffer and Roy Hood.
Cobalt 12 We had that pesky
guy from the NW Kenny running in the lead with Phil Larcom after
the first heat. But Kenny was unable to keep pace with the flyin’
Phil. Kenny would suffer from several car problems and drop to 3rd,
leaving Phil with a 102 lap win over Lorenzo Roberts. Kenny was
3rd and TJ Picked up 4th.
One Motor S/P There were
only 8 total entries so it was run as one race, but I will report
it as 2 separate races.
Once again it was Kenny Richens in
the early mix with Josh Bauer not really able to keep pace but running
in 2nd. Kenny continued to lead and would take his 3rd win of the
weekend. Josh would have major problems late in the race and drop
to 3rd behind TJ Albu.
One Motor Pro This was
ugly. There were 3 Pro’s. Forrest Watchers hit a stopped car early
in the first heat and broke a magnet. In a show of good sportsmanship
he was allowed to continue after changing the motor but for 3rd
place points only. The other 2 Pro’s Robert Park and Phil Larcom
both had problems and were out but took the 1st and 2nd place points
respectively.
