The handouts were terrific, and both qualifying records were smashed, with Jerry Galloway going 4.340 on GTC-FK, beating Paul Pfeiffer's record of last year of 4.369.
 
Willy ran about a half dozen 4.2's, including a 4.234 and a 4.243, to top his record from last year, of 4.29X.
 
20181012_153741.jpg
 
The local racers gave the  ambulance companies a workout this last few weeks, and GTC-FK entry total was disappointing, but the racing was terrific.
 
At one point, 3 or 4 heats in, 5 racers were on the same lap, and 1, only a lap back.
 
Going into the last heat, Tracy was a lap, and a few feet behind Jerry G.
 
Jerry came off early, and Tracy got within a half a lap, but a few deslots cost him, and Jerry took the win.
 
Nelson managed to hold off Boogie and a hard charging Eric B, for 3rd.
 
In post race tech, Tracy came in at 109.9G, a .1 too light, and was DQ'ed, moving up Nelson and Boogie on to the podium.
 
Tracy took his DQ with class, as Noose warned him in tech that he was right on the edge.

Willy was ballistic.

 

Despite spinning a crown, dropping 5-6 laps, the first heat on Red, he broke his existing lap record by 2 laps.

 

The battle of the non-Willy's, was a great one, with 4 laps separating 2nd - 7th.

Awesome racing guys.

F1 Fiedler Flat - 13 entries

TQ - Tracy Chin - 4.890 - new record

The F1 Flat Track race was the hootenanny I envisioned.
 
Tracy, last up in qualifying, took 1 lap to knock the bubble man, Dale Yamashita into the B Main.
 
He then proceeded to take TQ, with an awesome, record 4.89.
 
20181012_191935.jpg
 
Dale, Rick Stagen, and Jeremy Wyant, cruised in the B Main, to move up to the A.
20181012_202310.jpg
 
The A Main was a battle, with the top 4 or 5 all within a lap or two, 5  heats or so, in.
 
Howie finished on Black, and held on for the 1/4 lap win.
 
To add to the excitement, Dale passed Rick on the last lap for 5th, and Tracy got by Jeremy by an inch, for 7th.

After many runner-ups, with Howie's F1 win, on the Fiedler Flat, he became the first racer to complete the Slam, of all 5 major Sano races.

He also extended his record, with his 99th and 100th, Sano scolding, while marshaling the B Main, and in the early stages of the A Main, while racing. LOL.

And big kudos go out to Dale Yamashita, on an impressive run, in his debut, on the unique Fiedler Flat track.

Greg Fox was also under the record, with a 4.274.

I was surprised to see today, we only dropped 6 total entries.

Too tired for complete results.

Willy, by 10 laps , over Dale Yamashita, in F1 King. New lap record.

TQ - Willy - new record.

Rick Stagen in the Can Am B Main, by 4, over Jeff Strause.

Howie, by 10 feet, over me, in Can Am A Main, on the Fiedler Flat.

TQ - Howie Ursaner (top 3 racers with 4.84)

Eric Balicki, by 6 laps, over Boogie, in Stocker B Main.

Eric's total would of tied for 3rd, in the A Main, last year.

Ed Sohl, by 25 feet, over Greg Fox, in Stocker A Main.

New lap record, by 9 laps.

TQ - Mike Swiss - new record

With getting up 4-5 AM, every day of the Sano, I've been beaten like a drum, but I'll start to get the results up from Saturday and Sunday, including the 3 races where the margin of victory was 25 ft., or less.

I'll get the sheets, and screenshots of the finishes, up first, and I'll add some text as time permits.

F1 King - 17 entries

TQ - Will Custer - 4.236 - new record

20181018_115956.jpg
Rodney ran steady for the first 5 heats, and then caught fire, the last 3, to pass his buddy, Rowdy, to win the C, and move up along with Rowdy.

Eric B ran well, but a broken guide, on a straightaway hit, cost him his shot at a move-up.

20181018_120053.jpg
The B Main was all Jeremy, who cruised to an easy move-up.

His Dad, the Boogieman hung close to Noose for awhile,for the last move-up, but a 33 lap heat on Black sunk him, and Noose moved into the A.

Tracy ran strong the last 5 heats, but a shaky start, the first 3, cost him his chance at a possible A Main appearance.

20181018_120201.jpg
The F1 race was the easiest of Willy's 3 King wins.

He went wire to wire, to take the dominating 10 lap win.

In a great 3 way battle for the last 2 podium spots, Dale and Edsel, both ran 305, and prevailed over Greg, by only a lap.

Can Am - Fiedler Flat - 15 entries

TQ - Howie Ursaner - 4.844 (2 other racers with higher 4.84's)

20181013_190358.jpg
We ran this race with no moveups, with lap total determining the overall placings.

Flat track ace, Rick Stagen, surprisingly qualified into the B Main.

He steadily pulled away from Jeff, and took the win, with a total strong enough for 6th , overall, while Jeff's total, wound up good enough for 8th.

20181018_144207.jpg
The A was a great race, with 4 racers really battling early, for the top spot.

JP, faded, when he hit Red, as he commented he did, in F1.

Chuck also dropped back, and it was left to Howie and I, to battle for the win.

In a rerun of the night before, in F1, Howie finished on Black, with me a little over a lap behind, and finishing on a stronger lane.

This time it was the fastest lane, Yellow, instead of Orange.

I ran hard, but Howie did another terrific job protecting his lead, and held on by about 6 feet.

It was Chuck's turn to snag the last podium spot, and he edged out JP for 3rd.
