Steel City Stampede Quick Results 4-14-2024

Sarver, PA (April 14, 2024) The Action Track roared to life for the first time in 2024 for the completion of the held over Steel City Stampede on Sunday afternoon with near chamber of commerce type weather greeting all fans, drivers and crew. And when the final checkered flag waved on the evening, six more prestigious belt buckles had been awarded.

In Millerstown Pic-a-Part Penn Ohio Pro Stock action, defending Pro Stock champion Tyler Dietz picked up where he left off in October, starting out front with nine laps in the books and just 16 laps away from a $3,500 payday. However, wily veteran Bobby Whitling had other ideas and found the quickest way around the track which had a good deal of character in it thanks to two weeks of rain. Dietz fell from the lead just a few laps into the completion and Whitling patiently picked his way to the front and stayed there to collect the belt buckle in the annual Dow/Kyle Memorial race which paid tribute to former announcing legend Dow Carnahan and faithful pit steward Kyle Stramaski. Andrew Gordon and Chris Schneider both got glimpses of the lead but were not able to take advantage of any Whitling miscues while keeping their respective spots on the podium. In the Diehl Automotive main event, Rick Regalski started on the pole of the 25 lap, $3,000-to-win but couldn’t manage to take advantage of the starting spot as some wild racing early on opened the race up to a number of drivers including Will Thomas and Colton Walters who both looked to have cars capable of finding Terry Bowser Excavating Victory Lane. In the end, defending track champion Rex King Jr. was able to strike for the lead after looking for the quickest groove to operate from in the early going, and looked to have the buckle locked up as the second half of the race progressed. A pair of late race cautions and restarts re-tightened the field and played into the hands of Will Thomas who had similarly found his groove in the second half. Thomas gave it his best shot during a green, white, checkered finish but could only pull to King Jr’s bumper as the Bristolville, Ohio based veteran etched his name once again on the all time Stampede winner’s list.

After retiring early in the Big Block Modified main event, Garrett Krummert found paydirt in the caution marred, 20 lap, $800-to-win RUSH Sportsman Modified Series feature while Vinny DePizzo eclipsed a strong running Troy Johnson in the final laps of the 20 lap, $1,000-to-win UEMS Emod main event. Josh Frantz continued his Mini Stock mastery of Action Track with yet another feature victory, holding off a furious charge from Matt Urey in the process to collect the $500 payday and buckle. And wrapping up the evening was another 100 lap, $1,000 winner’s check for veteran pilot Matt Feder in Sunday’s Enduro action, collecting his third consecutive Enduro win at the Sarver speedplant.
