Waynesfield, OH — (July 3, 2012) — In the inaugural Bob Reynolds Memorial race at Waynesfield Raceway Park in Waynesfield Ohio it was veteran racer Tim Shaffer taking the $6,000 first place prize in front of one of the largest crowds in the history of the Ohio oval. The Alliquipa PA driver took the lead on lap 13 and captured the victory.
An incredible field of 46 cars checked into the pits at Waynesfield Tuesday afternoon and the open wheel race fans in attendance were awarded with a night to remember during the Ron Hammons promoted event.
Pole sitter and early leader Dustin Daggett was extremely fast during the first 10 laps of the 30 lap main event. On lap 13 fourth starting Shaffer made his move on Daggett and took the lead. A mishandling racecar for Daggett was later discovered to be caused by a right rear tire slowly losing air and the Michigan driver was fortunate to finish the feature. Shaffer took the lead on lap 13 and had to fight off challenges from Jared Horstman and Tim Allison.
The very happy racer thanked promoter Ron Hammons, his hard working crew and all the incredible fans who came out to support this new 360 sprintcar special. The top five finishers were Shaffer,Allison,Butch Schroeder,J.R. Stewart and Randy Hannagan.
Taking heat victories were Kyle Sauder,Shaffer,Stewart,Gregg Dalman,Daggett and D.J.Foose.The B mains were taken by Danny Smith,Caleb Griffith and Hud Horton.
