Latest CWSSA News

Super Stocks have suffered a shorter count of racers lately, but no lack of drama. Michael Gwidt blew his rear-end during the week and found a pretty hot ride to borrow in defense of his points lead Friday Night. Pyburn Racing loaned Gwidt their #71 machine, and it still had that same old speed, posting 2nd fast time, and steaming to the front to win his 2nd Feature in a row, and 5th of the year.

Colin Reffner did all he could, setting fast time and racing as hard as he could, but losing grip on both the points lead, the top spot, and the race win seemed inevitable. Reffner finished 4th just ahead of Matt Raykowski. 3rd went to Kyle Davis, who doggedly defended the spot, and 2nd place Scott Hamel drove a great race. Congratulations to new phenom Michael Gwidt and his team for the Super Stock Championship at Golden Sands!

In the D & D Amusement Games CWSSA feature event, Nekoosa’s Ben Capek led a very competitive group of drivers to the line for their 25-lap main event. Marv Flick, who calls Stevens Point, WI home, jumped out to the early lead. Closely behind Flick were Matt Pyburn and Matt Raykowski. Reffner, who was crowned track champion one week earlier, appeared to be on a rail. Starting twelfth, Reffner worked himself into the third position by lap eight. Two laps later, Reffner made the pass of Flick for the top spot. Brian Back, who also started deep in the field, also had a very good car. Back, who reigns from Vesper, WI, positioned himself in the runner up position on lap eleven.

Rick Grunden made some nice passes of his counterparts and looked to be hooked up and ready to better his position even more. Grunden appeared to be better as the race progressed and looked better on the long runs. Brian Back made every attempt to cut into the lead of Colin Reffner, however, Reffner was too much today and cruised to his first Fall Spectacular Feature win! Brian Back, Rick Grunden, Matt Pyburn, and Matt Raykowski rounded out the top five.  Heat winners today were Jason Dummer and Erin Schlough.
