FREMONT, OH- By Brian Liskai (6-28-12) Despite some mechanical woes over the past few races and some bad racing luck, Dale Blaney has remained confident. That was evident Wednesday at Fremont Speedway for night #6 of the University of Northwestern Ohio All Star Circuit of Champions 30th Annual Ohio Sprint Speedweek.
Prior to the night s racing on JLH General Contractor s Night, Blaney was calm and confident in the pit area, joking with fellow competitors, and letting them know he was taking ALL the money at The Track That Action Built.
It was a great night got a good qualifying lap and that just set the tone for it, said Blaney beside his Ti22 Performance #2. I ll tell you what to beat those two guys (Tim Shaffer and Kyle Larson) here especially Larson.
He s unbelievable and we re going to be watching him race on Sundays for a lot of years. It s pretty neat to race with him right now. And to beat Shaffer I saw that #83 on the board and I knew he was good. He gets up on the wheel for these races. We have a good time racing. Boy he shoved it in there in four. I thought I was okay I was kind of getting held up there just a little bit the 45 car kind of took my line a little bit. I don t know if I was playing a little too cautious, but I got in there a little easier than I should of and he (Shaffer) got a run and boy I had to get between him and the curb and the curb was tall and I just caught it good.
He could have just used me up but he raced me clean.
Blaney, a three time UNOH All Star champion and four time Ohio Sprint Speedweek titlist, passed race-long leader Kyle Larson in heavy lapped traffic with just seven laps to go and then held off a valiant last lap effort from defending speedweek champion Tim Shaffer to score his fifth UNOH All Star win of the year. It was Blaney s 10th career All Star win at Fremont, tying him with Jack Hewitt for the most all time series win at The Track That Action Built.
It s pretty cool to tie Jack. There s no other place I really like to come to. This is one of my favorite places to come race. It s a racing town and the fans are always great here. To win here is special and the fans have always treated me right, said Blaney
Blaney s 15th career win at Fremont Speedway, tightens the UNOH All Stars point standings for the national title as Shaffer came into the event with a narrow 12 point lead. The Ohio Sprint Speedweek points battle is also close as Stevie Shaffer and Blaney narrow the gap to leader Stevie Smith.
For Shaffer, the second place run just continues to show how his Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook Motorsports team continues to grow and gel.
I was trying my damnest that was a hell of a race. You get Larson out front that kid is awesome; he s got a lot of talent. To stay up front at this track it s tough, the track changes and you have to move around a lot.
When I got to third I thought I might have a shot at this. I kind of slid Larson down there earlier and it worked so I tried it just to see how close I could get to Dale and I tried it and got next to him and thought I needed to save that for later. I just came up a little short. What a heck of a race that was a lot of fun, said Shaffer beside his Kistler Engines, VRP Shocks backed #83.
I can t wait to race tomorrow I just love racing every night. We have a great team with Janet and Aaron giving us great tools to work with. The J&J chassis and VRP shocks and Kistler Engines it s just starting to come together and it s a lot of fun, added Shaffer.
For Larson, who has won two Ohio Speedweek features in his first ever appearance in the event, third place was a bit disappointing.
The cushion got tougher and tougher to run. I figured the Low Rider
(Blaney) would be down on the bottom in one and two...it really got slick down there and you had to make sure you hit your marks. I didn t want to take a chance of missing the bottom like I did when he got by me. I don t know what happened there after that yellow I just kept messing up and let him get close to me. I felt like I was getting through traffic good so I really didn t want to see that yellow (only caution was on lap 25) I wanted it to go 40 laps nonstop. We will take two wins and almost a third last night and a third tonight it s not bad, said Larson of his Abreu Vineyards/Stadelhoffer Construction/Butlerbuilt Seats backed #1k.
Larson and Blaney would lead the field to the green of the 40-lap feature with Larson blasting into the lead with Blaney, Shane Stewart, Sam Hafertepe, Shaffer, Stevie Smith, Lee Jacobs and Greg Wilson in pursuit.
Larson set a blistering pace on the fast track, catching the rear of the field by lap seven. Looking like a seasoned veteran, Larson patiently worked his way through the heavy traffic and by lap 12 had some clear track and opened up a sizeable lead over Blaney, Stewart, Shaffer, Hafertepe, Smith and Craig Mintz.
But, just three laps later, Larson encountered traffic again, this time they were racing side by side in front of him. However, Blaney could not close as Stewart, Shaffer and Smith waged a terrific battle for third. Cap Henry and Jared Ridge would stop exiting turn four on lap 25 for the only caution. On the restart Larson had a lapped car separating him from Blaney who had two lapped machines between himself and Shaffer. On the restart Chris Andrews got upside down to bring out the red.
On the restart Larson used the clean air and the lapped cars to open up a lead again, but not for long as Blaney quickly disposed of the traffic.
Larson handed Blaney the break he needed on lap 28 when the leader slid off the top of turn two. Meanwhile Shaffer got around Stewart and was closing on the top two cars.
Larson and Blaney raced into heavy lapped traffic on lap 31 with Shaffer closing, and after completing the 32nd lap, Blaney would dive under Larson in turns one and two and drive off the bottom into the lead. Larson would stay to Blaney s outside and Shaffer joined the fun a lap later. With five to go, Blaney, Larson and Shaffer were within a car length of each other for the lead while Stewart, Smith and Wilson gave chase.
Shaffer would take second on lap 36 and quickly raced to Blaney s inside.
Blaney and Shaffer would battle side by the side to the white flag with Larson falling back slightly. As they raced into three and four toward the checkered, Shaffer blasted to Blaney s inside and slid up, the two nearly banging wheels as they had a drag race to the finish with Blaney winning by half a car. Blaney, Larson, Stewart, Smith and Wilson would round out the top five.
I hate to lead races early, especially with him (Larson) behind you. He watched me the other night at Wayne County well he really didn t watch me long, he just drove by me, but I watched him a little bit. He was really good on the bottom early in one and two and then he kind of stayed up top and after he run off the cliff there in two, I thought he d move down a little bit but he didn t. We just took advantage of him we were running second and traffic just went our way, said Blaney of his winning strategy.
