FREMONT, Ohio – Chris Andrews and Gauge Garcia traded sliders the final two laps and got together coming for the checkers at Fremont Speedway Fueled by the FriendShip Kitchen Saturday, July 25 with Garcia flipping off turn four and Andrews going on to score the 410 sprint feature win on Crown Battery Night.
For Andrews it was nearly the exact opposite of the previous night at Attica Raceway Park where he and Bryce Lucius traded sliders late in the race, getting together with Lucius going on to the win. Garcia, from Lemoore, California, led the first 29 of the 30 lap Fort Ball Pizza Palace 410 Sprint A-main before the exciting last lap. Darin Naida, Cap Henry, Trey Jacobs and Kalib Henry rounded out the top five. It was Andrews’ 12th career win at Fremont Speedway.
“That was kind of the opposite of my driving style lately. I finally got this thing to go the way I wanted it to. Last night was a bummer…last night hurt pretty bad. I thought we had that one wrapped up. We are finally getting this car good and the Kistler motor is ripping, the shocks are good, my entire crew is working hard…it’s just good,” said Andrews beside his Ohio Truck Sales, Fleet Financial, Real American Beer, Whiteford Kenworth, Erie Waste, Cintas, Fremont NAPA, Toledo Spring, TruckParts4U.com backed #15C.
Andrews went from fourth to second after a caution with just five laps to go.
“I was screwing around on the bottom and I was like ‘screw it, we’re going to pull back and send it’ and we sent it. I’m glad I did it at the end. There was no way I could run 30 laps like that. Gauge put on a hell of a race. If he keeps driving like that he’s going to win a lot of races,” added Andrews.
Cap Henry’s third place finish will keep him atop the All Pro Aluminum Cylinder Heads/Kistler Racing Products Attica Fremont Championship Series presented by the Baumann Auto Group point standings.
Paul Weaver led the first four laps of the Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 feature before fifth place starter Bryan Sebetto took over. Sebetto built a nearly 3.5 second lead before a caution on lap 14. But he pulled away on the restart while the action behind him involving Weaver, Jimmy McGrath, Brenden Torok and Jamie Miller was hot and heavy.
The last five laps Sebetto struggled to find his footing and Weaver closed, but was unable to get closer than a couple of car lengths at the checkers. Sebetto’s fifth win of the year at Fremont came over Weaver, Miller, Torok and Dustin Dinan.
It was a sweep of the Real Geese Decoys/Real Capz Attica Fremont Championship Series events for the weekend as Sebetto scored the win Friday at Attica. He now has eight total wins in 2026. It was his 33rd career win at Fremont placing him 16th on the track’s all-time win list.
“I was getting pretty bad there toward the end of the race especially in three and four. I had to have the wing back so far to get off of two that it made me really tight on entry to three and I couldn’t quite figure out how to enter one. I felt like I made really bad laps the last five laps. Happy birthday to Tony Myers, crew chief…a nice weekend sweep for all his hard work. Thanks to everyone that puts work into this car. I can’t thank Bobby Clark enough for this opportunity,” said Sebetto beside his Coastal Cabinet and Flooring, Fremont Fence, Shelluke’s Bar, Level Performance, Level Utilities, Nagy Equipment, Dockside Barbershop, Riehl Custom Fabrication, Cutting Edge Counter Tops, Schade Builder Supply, BSE Fabrication, Overwatch Precision, BRS, Race Ready Apparel, Recker Team Howard Hanna Real Estate backed #8.
Dustin Keegan led the first two laps of the Burmeister Trophy Dirt Truck A-main before Keith Sorg took over. Sorg then battle with Shawn Valenti over the next seven laps with Valenti taking the lead on lap 11 and Sorg fighting back to the front a lap later.
Sorg drove to his second win of the year at Fremont and the 11th of his career at the track over Steve Miller, Kent Brewer, Dave Golembiewski and Keegan.
“The starter went out and it died on the last lap. This sure beats the last time out when we caught on fire,” said Sorg beside his Fremont Fence, M&L Excavating, West End Tire, Bobby Clark Racing, Advanced Auto, Ryan Property Services, Precision Monument, Great Lakes Garage Doors, Level Performance backed #4s.
Fremont Speedway Fueled by the FriendShip Kitchen will be back in action Saturday, Aug. 1 with the USAC D2 Midgets, 305 sprints, dirt trucks and a special school bus race on the racing card.
