JAY HARTMAN RACKS UP TWO WINS AT BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY

Bridgeport, NJ (May 11, 2013) - On Bridgeport Speedway’s inner dirt
oval, Jay Hartman racked up two wins. Sam Lamothe and Jay Hartman each
won a 600cc Micro-Sprint main event on Twin 15 Night. Jay Hartman took
the checkered flag in the 270cc Micro-Sprint feature. Scott Dunn
scored the victory in the 4-Cylinder Enduro Car race.

After gaining the lead on the fifth circuit, Sam Lamothe paced the
field for the remaining distance to win the first 15-lap 600cc
Micro-Sprint feature. Dave Carlberg led the opening four tours of the
race with Lamothe running in second. Following a restart, Lamothe
scooted by Carlberg for the top spot. Jeff Hartman, who started the
race in fourteenth, moved into the runner-up position on lap 7. With
five circuits to go, Lamothe had a half-straightaway lead over Jeff
Hartman. Three laps later, Lamothe’s lead had diminished to a few car
lengths with lap traffic on the horizon. On the final tour in lap
traffic, Lamothe was able to hold off Jeff Hartman to win his first
600cc Micro-Sprint feature at Bridgeport Speedway by one car length.
Andrew Locuson, Chris Locuson, and Sam Locuson completed the top five
finishers.

In the second 15-lap 600cc Micro-Sprint feature, Jay Hartman slipped
beneath Joe Kay on the final corner to take the victory. Prior to
losing the lead in the final moments, Kay had led the race since the
beginning. Jay Hartman, who began the event in fifth place, moved into
the runner-up spot on lap 6. With two circuits remaining, Kay and Jay
Hartman were locked in a duel for the lead in the midst of lap
traffic. As the white flag waved, Jay Hartman tried to gain the lead
with an outside move. Down the backstretch, Jay Hartman shifted to the
inside groove just before the top two entered the third corner. Coming
out of the last turn, Jay Hartman was able to nip Kay for the win.
Jeff Hartman, Tyler DeVault, and Jon Keller finished behind Jay
Hartman and Kay. Jay Hartman, Steve Bracall, and Chris Locuson each
claimed a 600cc Micro-Sprint heat race. The consolation event was won
by Joe Kay.

Jay Hartman took the lead from Jonathan John with nine circuits left
and went on to win the 20-lap 270cc Micro-Sprint feature. Tyler
Reinhardt finished in second. Third place went to Randy Oswald with
Steve Coslop finishing in fourth and Richie Keller coming home in
fifth. Qualifying races in the 270cc Micro-Sprint class were taken by
Steve Coslop and Jon Keller.

In the 20-lap 4-Cylinder Enduro Car race, Scott Dunn survived a last
circuit restart to win his third consecutive feature. Warren Stradley,
John Gray, Art Knapp, and Todd Francis followed Dunn across the finish
line.
