LUKE THOMAS GRABS THE CHECKERED FLAG AT BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY

Swedesboro, NJ (April 21, 2012) – On Bridgeport Speedway’s quarter
mile oval, Luke Thomas grabbed the checkered flag in the 600cc
Micro-Sprint feature. Charlie Lamanna scored the win in the 270cc
Micro-Sprint race. For the second week in a row, Warren Stradley was
victorious in the 4-Cylinder Enduro Car contest.

At the start of the 20-lap main event for the 600cc Micro-Sprints,
Luke Thomas zipped to the front over Bill Thomas, Lee Nardelli, and
Jay Hartman. Following a caution and restart on the second tour, the
top two remained in order with Hartman motoring into third. At the
halfway mark, the top three were in heavy traffic and Bill Thomas was
able to close in on the leader. On lap 12, an apparent pass by Bill
Thomas for the lead was eliminated by a yellow flag for an Andrew
Locuson spin. When action got back underway, Luke Thomas took
advantage of a clear track and began to run away from the field. With
five laps to go, Luke Thomas had a comfortable lead over his rivals.
As the checkered flag waved, it was Luke Thomas in front for his third
career win at Bridgeport Speedway. Second place was taken by Bill
Thomas. Third went to Hartman. A late rush by Richie Keller resulted
in a fourth place finish. Sam Locuson wound up in fifth. Tim Iulg,
Andrew Locuson, Jay Hartman, and Stephen Kemery won the 600cc
Micro-Sprint qualifying events. The consolation event went to Tom
Fraschetta.

Charlie Lamanna put on a dominating performance in winning the 20-lap
270cc Micro-Sprint feature. After starting on the pole, Lamanna led
every circuit to record his eighth career win in the division. Justin
Stillwagon finished in the runner-up spot. John Blanda, Richie Keller,
and Kyle Newkirk rounded out the top five. Heat winners in the 270cc
Micro-Sprint class were Richie Keller and Jonathan John.

In the 20-lap 4-Cylinder Enduro Car event, Warren Stradley won for the
second consecutive week. The victory was Stradley’s fifty-third in the
division. Stradley took the top position from Scott Dunn on lap 14 to
get the victory. Scott Dunn finished in second. Justin Dunn, Mike
Dunn, and Robbie Dunn filled out the top five.
