Moyer wins Late
Model Race At Eighth Annual Baltes Classic
Douglas Wins Stock Car Race, Trent Wins Stock Car Championship; Taylor
Wins UMP Modified Race
ROSSBURG, Ohio (September 6, 2015) – Six-time World 100 winner Billy
Moyer held off Jimmy Mars to win the 25-lap Late Model race in the
eighth annual Baltes Classic at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio.
Moyer, from Batesville, Arkansas, was recorded as the leader for all 25
laps while choosing to run the lightning fast cushion, but it was not
without challenge. Wisconsin veteran Jimmy Mars challenged
several times rolling the middle groove and briefly took the lead with
a slide job in turn four while Moyer bobbled on the cushion. The
two drag-raced to the checkered flag with Moyer taking the win by half
a car length.
“He came under me and ran me pretty good,” Moyer said. “He ran me
clean. He could have slid up and it might have been disaster. But, he
let me slide by. We’ve raced together for a long time and we leave each
other room. If it had been for the big race, it might have been a
different story.”
The big race will start this week as the 45th World 100 Weekend kicks
off at Eldora on this Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The all-time
World 100 win leader with six wins in The Biggest Dirt Race In The
World™, Moyer has also won each time he has been victorious in the
Sunday night event.
“It definitely helps,” Moyer said. “We’ve had kind of an up and down
year. So to win this looking to next week makes you feel good. It’s
different than it used to be as we have two warm up nights so to speak.
It used to be that when you unloaded you better be ready for bear right
when you hit the track.”
Kent Robinson, from Bloomington, Indiana, finished third, while local
Eldora favorites Duane Chamberlain and Jon Henry rounded out the
top-five.
Chris Douglas pulled a last lap slide job on Paul Pardo in turn four
and won the Eldora stock car race.
Pardo, from New Paris, Ohio, was going for three wins in a row, but
Douglas, from Lima, Ohio started ninth and was able to take the win.
“Heck of a finish,” Douglas said. “Started ninth, but we had a dry
slick track and we were moving on. I’d like to thank my family and my
Dad Dave. He’s give us a good ride every week. It’s been a long year
and we’ve torn up a lot of stuff. It’s nice to come back a get a win.”
Frank Paladino was third, while Barney Craig and Rob Trent rounded out
the top five. Trent was crowned Eldora Stock car champion for the third
time in his career.
“I want to thank Jerry Walker,” Trent said. “He’s got two of those
championships as a crew chief. He builds a heck of a motor. Just a
great win for us. Awesome. ”
Jonathan Taylor led all 25 laps and won the DIRTcar UMP Modifieds race.
Taylor, from Saltsburg, Pennsylvania, started second and never looked
back.
“It feels good,” Taylor said. “It helps starting up front. The track
surface was great. We were able to hold on at the end and get the
victory.”
Travis Stemler started 11th, but finished second, while Josh Rice who
started ninth, was third. Jerry Bowersock and Curt Spalding rounded out
the top-five.
The racing continues on Thursday with the first night of the 45th World
100. Tickets for the three day World 100 can be purchased at
