The day started off with Stephen Knight taking the checkers in the Kid Kart class.  Carter Mezines was second with Will Kushner finishing third.  Emily Hutmacher still holds a 326 point lead over Stephen

Chase Rosebraugh was smiling ear to ear with his first ever Feature Win at the ELKT.  He held off a hard charging Tyler Woods who had won both Heat races. Finishing third was Ben Kushner.  Tyler Woods hold a nearly 300 point lead in the class over Ben Kushner.

Yamaha Jr Sportsman was the next class out on the track and what a battle this class had.  Alex Frazier won the first heat and Sheldon Mills took the second heat.  In the feature it was Sheldon Mills chasing down Alex and passing him in turn 6.  This is Sheldon’s first Feature Win and if I’m not mistaken his first Heat win. Tyler Holton rounded out the top three.  Alex Frazier with his second place finish takes the points lead by 52 points over Justin Hutmacher and a 94 points lead over Alexander Lozano.

The next class to take the track was the Yamaha Jr SuperCan.  Justin Kirinovic got back on the winning trail with sweeping both the Heat races and the Feature.  Cameron Caron finished second and Kevin Jacobs finished third.

In the Yamaha Sr SuperCan division it was Tyler King also doing the triple, sweeping both Heat races and the Feature. Mark Goss placed second and Stephanie Geare rounded out the podium.  With Tyler’s win it moves him to within 3 points, yes that’s right 3 points behind Mark Goss.  Stephanie Geare is a mere 65 points out of first.

Keith Bowerman and Shelby Kushner split the Heat races with Shelby taking the first heat race and Keith taking the second.  But it was Keith that ended up taking the win with Shelby finishing second and John McKenzie finishing third.  Keith lead the points standing with 1329, Shelby is in second 516 points back.  Nick Cappa is a mere 23 points back of second. I’m beginning to think Keith is a throwback to the Dave Marcus era, notice the Polo shirt.

In the Tag Masters Cory French took a Heat win and the Feature, Mike Tracy and Mark Goss finished second and third respectively.  Mark Goss leads this class with 1450 points followed by Mike Tracy at 1111 points and Ilytd Geare is in third with 908 points.

TAG Light saw some heated racing in the Feature between Justin LaFollette and Tommy Collins II.  Justin and Tommy also split the Heat races.  In the Feature it was Justin taking the win but was later penalized for incidences occurring during the cool down lap.  This moved Tommy Collins II to first, Tommy Collins III to second and John McKenzie to third.

That’s the Bear Facts.   Please keep in mind that this upcoming weekend trophy sponsor is Brock Motorsports
