REGIER SETS RECORD, WINS AT SRP

On yet another hot, dry day at Shasta Raceway Park, track conditions were slick and water was a popular commodity. That proved to be no problem at all, however, for WSSRL Supermodified driver Troy Regier. After setting a new track record in qualifying, he went on to dominate the main event, winning by nearly eight and a half seconds.

A full field of Supermodifieds showed up to play on Saturday, hoping to put on a good show for their only appearance this season. And that they did. The race started relatively cleanly, with Jeff Russell taking an early lead. That all changed on lap seven, as Russell attempted to lap Jim Pasquin. Those two drivers made contact, sending them both into the outside wall, and collecting Jim Birges and Mike Baisch in the process. Baisch would be the only one to continue after the incident. After a lengthy delay, things got back underway, and ran much more smoothly for the remainder of the race. Regier took the lead within a few laps of the green and never looked back, leading A.J. Russell, Mike Baisch, Rick Veenstra, and Amy Barnes to the line.
