and has pulled off the course. The No. 34 Nissan of Joe Wutke
just lost control and barrel rolled at least four times. He is okay
and the safety crew had him off the field before the red flag could
fly. Crash

Borg-Warner World Championship
Manufacturer's Shootout -- The announcers are stirring up
the crowd into a frenzy for the Borg-Warner World Championship
Manufacturer's Shootout. Though there may be a bit of bias,
we'd venture to say that the winner's circle awaits the Ford of Rob
MacCachren. Things have been switched up a bit. So with that
said, we're turning our heads to the track for the Pro Lite
contest. |

| Stock Truck - Round 14 race recap
-- Mark Kleiman is leading the stock truck contest with
one lap to go and appears to be on his way to his ninth win of the
season. |

Pro 4 - Round
14 race recap: Blasting into turn one,
MacCrandon's early lead snafued into a pile up, which left all but
Adrian Cenni stacked on top of one another like a deck of cards.
The race was over. Done. It was a cakewalk by more than 10 seconds. Cenni
could have darn-near hopped on the hood and celebrated. But just as in Vegas, when the odds are stacked
aganst you, you lay the cash on the card table, hunt down the joker
and dish out an ace or two for good measure. The Vegas local did
just that. MacCrandon realed Cenni in like a Wisconsin Walleye,
gaining at least four seconds on each ensuing lap. |
| This kicked in the interest of Curt
LeDuc who was still in the hunt for a fender. A few laps later. It
was a three-wide race for second. First place was still in the
hands of Cenni -- barely. He could feel the heat building up from
behind. It was a toss up out of every turn, Mac, Duc, Mac, Duc. Jason
Baldwin tossed in his best effort. At the final turn, at about the
last two laps, the three went into the final turn three wide and
wadded it up for a second time, delivering refuge to Cenni's lead.
They handed him another 10 or so seconds. The three were wedged against the wall, trying to
tear from each other and get back into the game. The three were
locked tight, reversing furiously. They backed up in unison.
MacCachren made his move for the front, but LeDuc pinched him
between the wall and locked him out of the fleet for second.
Baldwin was shaved out of the loop. Again, all bets were off. The game
was over. Cenni would win. |
| But again, it ain't over until MacCrandon sings.
Again, he hopped on the throttle and overtook LeDuc, and then he
set his sights on another Walleye fishing derby. When they're biting, you real'em in. Cenni took the
bait and was hooked on an easy win. Wrong. The Desert Mac was in
the hunt, his prospect pathetic, his future too far behind for
hope, the crowd seemed to have handed in the towel. It was over --
so it seemed to the glazed over and dust scathed eyes of many. Within one lap, Mac cracked the whip and gained
enough ground for many to began with the old MacCachren chant. He
had gained at least five seconds within that time. Ouch! | 
| The white flag twirled in the wind and some still
weren't convinced. The Come Back Kid just can't do it. Less than a
minute later, he swept into the long straight and overtook Cenni
with no remorse. Sometimes, it sucks to have it all wrapped up and
lose it. He lost it. MacCrandon cruised across the finish, lacking all
body panels and in need of a tranny. His crew is in the
pits, swapping one in a fresh tranny right now. Cenni was the only
one to cruise into the pits unscathed -- except for the tremendous
loss he had just taken. | 
| Baldwin is also in the pits calling on his crew for
some assistance. Scott Douglas is changing a tranny. LeDuc is
tearing out a T-case and replacing it with a fresh one. In
addition, he's got to have his rear end redone and are re-welding
his body mounts. Get it from us first. This hasn't even entered the
horse's bunny ears much less his mule lips. Adrian Cenni has just
clinched a deal with Miller Lite for full title sponsorship. Ouch!
This could get interesting. Add a few brews and all he needs now is
a few brats, and we'll call it a party. Congratulations. | | Pro-4 - Round

Pro-4 - Round 14
LIVE UPDATE: CARNAGE. As they headed to turn 1, Adrian
Cenni had the hole shot as the rest of the field bottled up behind
him. When the dust settled, Douglas, Leduc, MacCachren, Baldwin and
Greaves had all lost valuable time to
Cenni. MacCacheren who was the third truck back on the road
is flying, he has already moved to third. |

13 LIVE UPDATE: Evan Evans shot-gunned through
the first turn, taking the lead with Carl Renezeder and Scott
Taylor sucking up the roost and tight on his tail. The
competition just turned into twisted metal and a fender
fight. The crowd has awoken to the Bow Tie rivalvary,
lifting from their seats. Renezeder is closing in through the turns
and Evans is walking away on the straigts. It's push and pull. |

Campfires and Old Glory in
the Wind -- The storm clouds of the evening gave way to
beautiful blue skies and temperatures expected to climb into the
80s this afternoon, a contrast to the night, which brough
temperatures down to the mid-40s and an onslaught of campfires,
which were worth their weight in Bratwurst and brew. Practice rounds just gave way, calling the campers
from their late-morning slumbers. Groggy-eyed and flushed-faced,
spectators are marching through the gates and bellying up to the
fence line. Course workers are grooming the track in what’s
become the envy of years past. The records of old have been tossed
to the wayside. Guys like Jason Baldwin, Rob MacCachren and Scott
Douglas, yesterday gave an impressive record-setting performance in
the Trail Master Time Trials, the qualifying round for the 2001
Borg-Warner Shootout. Today again, the course conditions are immaculate.
Lea Kincaid just finished up with the National Anthem, while Old
Glory waved in the cool breeze, and bombs have gone off and
music’s kicked in. The green flag just waved and the Outlaw Seven /
Class 3 4x4s battling for the lead. |
| Start nex |
The track records are
toast -- Three of the top qualifiers for Sunday's
Borg-Warner Cup have broken track the record. History is inevitable, but the
action here at Crandon today is incredible. Desert racers are
staking claim to the short-course crowd and sending them away
weeping. The No. 66 Ford of Jason Baldwin
is atop the charts. He broke the one-hour old record of No. 21
MacCaceran with a time of 1:24.50. |
|
The Trail Master Time Trials are about to
start. Scott Taylor #1 (Pro 2) will be the first off the
line. Rob MacCachren HAS broken the track record for
Crandon Raceway posting a time of 1:24.53. The previous record was
1:25.95 held by Jamey Flannery. He currently sits on the pole for
Sundays Borg Warner Cup. |
| |
|
From sunshine to storm clouds on the
horizon, regardless of what the weather man says, the rain
is inevitable when the racing comes to Crandon. Yesterday, they said it'd be the first weekend
that anyone could recall where rain wasn't forecasted.
Today, there's a brisk chill in the wind and the storm
clouds are calling for the weatherman to eat his words. Check back with us shortly after noon, when we'll
have a little somthing for you to peruse through. |
