SCOPE takes to the Track AGAIN!

Kyle Steiner takes checkered Flag
at the SCOPE go cart night!!!!

SCOPE: 4/7/04
Thirty-three SCOPE members, friends and families took to the Dromo One go cart track Wednesday night. It was great to see new faces and meet new boat heads. Event coordinator Jeff Murray had all the entry forms ready and the racing went off without a hitch.

There were four heat races, four semis and the main event. The top point earners based on each heat made it to the final. One thing became apparent immediately, the Steiner’s, Bill, son Kyle and daughter Brielle were the ones to beat. Jeff Cheng posted some fast times as did Rick Lemmon. When I say fast, times were in the low 27’s, pretty good when the track record is the mid 25’s.

Jeff Murray somehow pulled off three heat wins but turns out against all girls. Norton Alderson showed that with proper blocking he could hold off anybody, until cash was put up by Wayne Lee and Lu Lyall to “take him out”. Bill Bowen and Robert Bernard were all for it.

Rick Dunn, Greg Rice, Greg Timmons, Ted Barnes and Sean Clancy had some great heat races.

The “Do not bump” sign was out on display for the first three laps of every race.

The girls were smoking hot tonight as Beth Lyall and Debbie Helms took to the tack, but none could catch Brielle.

The final came down to the top nine points winners. The racing was tight and Gary Fullmer lead the charge into the first turn with Jeff Murray. Kyle passed them on the next lap and sister Brielle going by next. Jeff Cheng, not to be taken for the king poodle he is, mashed on the gas and blew past Fullmer, Murray and slammed his way past Brielle.

The final results were:

Kyle, Cheng, Brielle, Gary, Jeff, Leason P, Daryl, Cameron and Bill Steiner, who had a black flag for rough driving.

After the awards, it was off for a quick bit to eat and a little bench racing.

Thanks to all who attended and Jeff Murray and Ron Songrath for putting together the event. Songrath had to miss the races to go shopping for a new baby stroller as wife Christen is due within the next few weeks.
