NELSONS LEDGES, Ohio The big bike and 600 classes heated up Sunday as Michael Molnar, Dave Dispenza and David Dannemiller battled throughout the day in round three of Fasttrax’s sprint series. Molnar of Wilmington, OH riding a GSXR-1000, Dispenza of Amherst, OH on a Suzuki GSXR-600 and Dannemiller of Cincinnati on a Yamaha R-6 often found themselves in the same races although sometimes in different classes. And in each race, the fight was not just for first place in their respective classes, but first overall. In the three-way match ups, Dannemiller came out on top while Molnar managed to best Dispenza when they went head to head. Fasttrax is back at Nelsons Ledges for round four of its endurance and sprint series on July 19 and 20.

More, from a press release issued by CMRA: Dustin Dominguez and Ty Howard topped a strong field of racers at round five of the Central Motorcycle Roadracing Association’s Championship Series at Oak Hill Raceway near Henderson, Texas, this weekend. In all, Howard claimed three wins, in addition to a good share of the Kawasaki contingency money, while Dominguez won a heads-up meeting between the two riders, and then add three other wins for a total of four, as both racers added to their totals in CMRA championship class standings. One of the most exciting races of the day was the Island Racing Services C Superbike race, which saw Howard struggle to get off the line, forcing him to work his way through traffic to catch Dominguez. In the end, Dominguez held off the perennial CMRA champion to take the win, while Howard settled for a very close second. Howard returned later to take wins in the RaceworX A Superstock, South Central Race Center C Superstock and AVTEQ A Superbike races, while Dominguez added wins in the Liberty Motorsports Park B Superstock, Sonic Springs D Superstock and D Superbike races. Over four hundred entries for Sunday’s sprint races and 50 teams for Saturday’s eight-hour endurance race graced the grids for the weekend’s activities, which were held over Father’s Day weekend. In other races, Danny Kelsey won a nail-biter over Ricky Parker in the Team Mancuso Powersports B Superbike race. While earlier in the day, Larry Myers topped Robert Duncan in a back and forth battle in the Unlimited Motard/Exel Transportation Formula 2 race, that was ultimately decided on the final lap. Other race winners included Van Blaylock, who won the Heavyweight Twins Expert race, Ryan O’Donnell, who won the Lightweight Twins Expert race, Jake Lewis in the GMAN Racing 125 GP race, Kevin Pate in the Northwest Honda Formula 1 Expert race, Danny Dominguez in the CompuCrew Formula 40 Heavyweight Expert race, and Robert Marsh in the Formula 40 Lightweight Expert race. In the Novice divisions, Jeremy Kidd and Charles Sackey each won three races while Brian Carter won two. In Saturday’s 8 hour Shogun Motorsports Mini Endurance race, GMAN Racing 2 (Harry Tomlinson, Garet Tomlinson, Ryan Andrews, Jake Lewis, Bill Syfan) won a battle of attrition, taking the win by a three-lap margin over Desert-Mice (Stephen Guynes, Jeff Mendelson, Bill Hirstius, Troy Green), with Team Sidewinder (Ulug Bayramoglu, Gabe McClendon, Derrick Patman, Chris Waller) taking third, another six laps back. The CMRA will return to action for round six of its series on July 5-6 at Mercedes-Benz of Sugarland Road Course (MSR Houston) near Angleton, Texas.
