GREAT ENDING TO THE 2007-2008 Season !
Final race of the 2007-2008 season was a spectacular way to end a series.  There were some heartbreaks as final point standings rapidly changed, and some enthusiastic spontaneous celebrations as drivers sealed their Red Bluff Outlaw Championships.  Despite a rather dusty track the drivers, even the now experienced Beginner Box Stock racers, handled the rapidly changing track and managed some great racing.  Steep banking in turns 1 and 2 made for some powerful exits and backstretch sprints.  Those who could slingshot off those turns and power down the straights made it more like a thrill ride than a race.  ....

Feb. 15, Race
Story by Shane Graham

The Red Bluff Outlaws came together again for Race #12 of the 2007-2008 season on February 16th. The Open A-main event stood out from every other race during the evening as Dillon Silverman 8X raced with the 22S of Daniel Becker for the victory. Also putting on a show was Jason Webb in the 96 kart during the Sportsman division’s A-main event. The track went dry-slick for the 2nd consecutive weekend, but the bottom lane held a little bit of moisture and made for two lines of racing, which provided some great racing action for the fans.

The Beginner Box Stock division kicked off their night of racing by watching the 56 kart, driven by Brian Hubert, pace the field in time trials. Connor Sousa 01 had a solid 2nd qualifying effort, but he later finished 2nd in his heat race for the only time this season, as Brian McGahan broke Sousa’s heat race winning-steak in his 8JR Outlaw kart by winning Heat 2. The A-main event was much the same as qualifying as Hubert took his 56 kart to another victory. Ryan Robinson 11 could not close on the 56 kart in the final laps as he finished in 2nd. Two drivers that were around each other all evening long were the 57P, Parker Courier, and the 89L, Michael Call. The two drivers raced out of the C-main into the B-main, and from there they moved into the A-main, where Call finished 5th and Courier finished 6th.

The Box Stock division saw Chase Majdic 42 set fast time one race ago on February 9th and they witnessed a repeat as Majdic set quick time again for Race #12. In the A-main event, however, the result was much different for the 42 kart of Majdic. Majdic had some difficulties forcing him into finishing in the 16th spot, which diminished his chances at a title going into the final points’ race of the season. Brandon White in the 99 kart won the A-main event as he led from the early stages and was not contested for the entire race. The 8 of Lain Baker finished in the 2nd spot behind White, as he could not get close to making a move on White.

Jake Morgan in the 77 kart must understand how to control the throttle on a dry-slick racetrack, because he has won the last two 250 division A-main events, both of which were on dry-slick tracks, and both times he took the A-main events going away. William Fielding 3F also understands how to race on a dry-slick track, as he has racked up two consecutive 2nd place finishes behind the 77 kart of Morgan. In one of the closest time trials that the Red Bluff Outlaws has seen for a while, the 24 kart of Mason Millard took fast time ahead of Camron Bartlett 81 by 0.001 seconds, that is a mere one one-thousandth of a second.

The Open Intermediate division saw a driver capture his first 1st place finish ever at the Red Bluff Outlaws. Jeremy Andreasen 70 was able to beat out the 27 kart of Keith Bloom for the victory. Andreasen took the lead off of the start and never looked back. Bloom, however, worked from being as far back as the 6th position to move up to where he finished, 2nd. Points’ leader Jake Park 77 finished in 3rd and maintained a 13-point lead over Keith Bloom.

Now, moving into the fierce competition of the Open division A-main event. About all there is to say without going into detail is: WOW! Now, going into detail, Daniel Becker 22S and Dillon Silverman 8X put on one of the best Open A-main events in a while. Let’s not forget how it all began. Beau Perkins in the 35 kart took the lead on lap one after he started on the outside of the front row. Silverman and Perkins raced hard for the lead until Silverman got the best of the witty veteran entering turn three. Perkins dropped to 5th and brought home a respectable 3rd place run. Meanwhile, Becker moved into 2nd behind Silverman. On a later restart Becker took the lead from Silverman as they bumped and rubbed numerous times down the back straightaway. Becker led the race until the final lap when Silverman threw his kart into turn three, making contact with Becker and taking the win. Becker finished with a disappointing 2nd, as Silverman was the triumphant victor.

The Sportsman division saw Branden Williams 91 set quick time once again ahead of the 5E of Scott Morton. In the A-main event Demo Mittry 23 had mechanical issues while leading, which opened the door for the 96 kart of Jason Webb. Jason Webb has raced at the Red Bluff Outlaws since he was just a lad; Webb is a past champion and was not to be defeated in Race #12. Webb took command and led every lap until the finish, while pulling away from Williams in dominant fashion.

With twelve of the thirteen events in the books, some championships have been taken, and some are still up for grabs. All racers will be looking for an extra little bit in the points’ standings going into the final race. With only one points’ race left, and the West Coast Nationals still to come, it is destiny for the racing to be exciting.

SHOT (FLIP) OF THE WEEK !

SHOT OF THE WEEK - FUNNY

In Loving Memory of Bob Schwyhart
This week we grieve the passing of Bob Schwyhart. Bob was a fixture at the Red Bluff Outlaws for many, many years. Among other duties, he worked the onramp gate, called out the races, and organized the racers as they lined up.

Schwyhart has been a long time friend of Bob and Pat Carrel and was an integral part of the races at Shasta Speedway in Anderson during the 5 year stint when the Carrels were promoting the track.

Bob was also the Senior Maintenance and Groundskeeper for the Tehama District Fairgrounds.

Bob’s sense of humor endeared him to anyone who had the honor to meet him. He will be greatly missed. There will be a gathering of friends and family Tuesday, Feb.12 at the cafeteria at the Tehama District Fairgrounds.

God Speed
