REED AND FLOCKHART TOP WALL MODIFIED TWIN 20’S SATURDAY

Veteran Modified stock car drivers Steven Reed of Freehold and Kevin Flockhart of Jackson were winners Saturday night in “Twin 20” lap main events at Wall Stadium. In a new format, once the first 20-lap main event was completed a young fan determined, by a blind draw, that the top eight finishers would be inverted and the second 20-lapper was contested immediately.

Shaun Carrig of Little Falls jumped to the lead at the outset of the first 20-lapper, but Reed was on his bumper at once. Reed needed just two laps to drive into the lead and then held off defending track champ Chas Okerson of Freehold to the finish. Farmingdale’s Billy Cole, Carrig and Flockhart completed the top five.

“The car was just about perfect thanks to my crew,” Reed said after the win. “I want to dedicate this win to Alice Geibel who passed away this week. She was a very good friend to our family and to everyone here at Wall Stadium.”

Young David Reinhardt of Neptune City charged to the front in the second Supreme Manufacturing Modified 20-lapper and looked like he may be racing to his first ever stock car win. That all changed on the 16th lap as he spun in turn four. Flockhart, who was replacing Neptune’s Tommy Farrell in the No. 08 for the night, then raced home to the win over Roger Coss of Lafayette, Cole, Okerson and James Pritchard.

“It feels great to win here again,” Flockhart said. “I just found out that I was driving this car last night. Tommy Farrell hurt his ribs and couldn’t race it tonight. I’m sure glad they asked me!”

Eric Mauriello of Howell took command of the 25-lap Sportsman feature race with just six laps remaining and raced home to his first ever Wall Stadium win. Andrew Krause of Holmdel finished second to the Howell High School student, while Mike Smith of Spring Lake Heights and David Calabreese and Charlie Kremer III, both of Toms River, completed the top five.

Elliott Wohl of Freehold crossed the finish line first in the 20-lapper for the Flanagan Retail Development Factory Stocks, but when his car failed a post race inspection Rick Siddons of Beachwood was awarded his second win of the season. Point leader Rob Longo and Roy Farfel, both of Wall, were second and third, while Union’s Joey Helberg and Brick’s Shannon Mongeau were fourth and fifth.

The 25-lapper for the Legend Cars was a family battle with Zach Alspach of Willingboro beating his brother Trevor to the finish line in a thriller. Brian Spencer of Edison, Kenny Van Wickle of Spring Lake and Malcolm Campbell of Eatontown were third through fifth.

Mike Kennedy of Point Pleasant raced into the lead early and stayed out front all the way to win the 25-lap Street Stock main event. Bill Vanderveen of Beachwood, Keansburg’s Jerry Stanzione, Gregg Miranda of Hazlet and Jackson’s Howie Conk completed the top five.

Jon Gambuti won the 25-lapper for the visiting ATQMRA Three Quarter Midgets over Austin Fehr and Mike Tidaback.

Wall Stadium roars back into action this Saturday night, July 31, with five divisions of stock car racing. The Supreme Manufacturing Modifieds will battle in a 40-lap feature race; the Sportsman cars, Street Stocks and the Legend Cars will race in 25-lappers and the Factory Stocks will battle in a 20-lap feature.
