Tidaback Two In A Row In Borgers TQ/Asphalt 600 Sprints. Can Anyone Stop Taylor Eccles?
Mike Tidaback made his way to Borgers victory lane for the second straight week in Hoosier Racing Tires Borgers TQ/Asphalt 600 Sprints. Each driver put on a superb display of good clean side by side racing with respect for each other in a tight battle for the Borgers gold. Tidaback led the field to turn one followed by Austin Fehr and Bobby Butler. Austin Fehr took the lead coming out of turn two lap one with his sights set on his first feature wins of the season. The defending 2013 Borgers TQ/Asphalt 600 point champion has struggled the entire season and tonight he had things back in top notch condition. Soon Larry Hoagland joined the hunt moving into fourth spot also with his sights set on his first win of the 2014 season. Tidaback put the pressure on Fehr as the two battled side by side with Tidaback taking the lead. Now it was Butler’s turn to put the pressure on Fehr in a torrid four car battle for the lead. In his first ride in the Master Of TQ’s Blue Metz tuned Metz Rides For Rent 5B Butler made the pass on Fehr for second on lap twelve. In the closing laps Larry Hoagland turned the fastest lap of the night 9.881 taking over third and also taking over the lead in points for the 2014 championship. Tidaback took the win followed by Butler, Hoagland, Fehr, and TJ Lilly subbing for Louie Horvath who was on “Maternity Watch.”
When Glenn Borger built Borgers Speedway safety was foremost in his mind and tonight his efforts paid off. In what had to be the hardest hit ever taken at Borgers Speedway everyone held their breath as Kurt Bettler’s throttle stuck wide open hitting the first turn wall at full speed. The car became airborne and flipped into the catch fence coming to rest in turn two. The steel cable reinforced fence did it’s job keeping the car inside the racetrack as Bettler was shaken but exited the car uninjured. All of Bettler’s safety equipment did it’s job as well as the construction of the MMF chassis and George VanVarick’s expert maintenance of the car. The combined efforts of George VanVarick, MMF Chassis, and Glenn Borger made for a happy ending to this scarey incident.
Is there anyone that can stop Taylor Eccles? Many have tried and few have succeeded as Eccles notched win number seven in AllStar Slingshots. Father Skip had the finely tuned machine running to pefection once again as Eccles led Johnny Bush and Ryan Lacoe to turn one. Lap three Eddie Reeder and Ken Reeder moved into fourth and fifth as Eccles increased his lead. Eddie Reeder made the pass on Lacoe for third on lap four and in the closing laps Dillon Stever got past Ken Reeder for fifth. Eccles took win number seven increassing his quest for the 2014 championship followed by Bush and Eddie Reeder in a strong run was third. Lacoe moved into second spot behind Eccles in the point chase with his fourth place finish. Stever was fifth followed by Ken Reeder.
David Burns took his second win of the season In Junior Slingshots over Joey Costello.
