just added Lance Dewease in the Krietz racing team to the Weikert memorial weekend...............great news<<<<<<<<

Great news hope they can keep it going,would be nice to see Dale Blaney and some of the All Stars come in for Sunday and Monday.

I think someone from the Beer Hill Gang should start a campane to get Lance and Donnie some BACKING SO THEY COULD MAKE THE TRIP TO kNOXVILLE with Davey and Lance and the way the Blue 69 is running they would give Pa. a real shot to challenge Schtz ,Brown and Lasoski.

Pa. has not had a win since Weikert Brown and Wolfgang.

Saturday and Sunday only. 

If they are in contention to win it all I would be willing to bet my bottom dollar they will run Monday too.  Just depends how the first two days pan out. 

I believe Dale mentioned on Twitter he could be at the Weikert Memorial and I think Wild Child Jr. (Sheldon) will be there at least one night.  Could be a great weekend!

AJ Flick is also coming in to race.  He posted on his Facebook page he was coming East, but not sure for how many of the races.

2020 Race Count:
Lincoln 4
Port Royal 3
BAPS 1

Acording to Twitter Sheldon will be at Port Sunday and Monday.

Uh oh, other drivers better have their head on a swivel (to take a phrase from hockey)

Would be nice to see them go to Knoxville.....but if you think they can give Schatz, Lasoski, and Brown some competition, keep smoking the stuff you already are. 

just saw online ..... a j flick and trey starks coming in for Weikert Memorial this week end............

I think you may see quite a few All Stars , and Western Pa drivers come in on Sunday and Monday if all goes well for them .Friday and Saturday the All Stars race elsewhere in Ohio . Hope the track is better this time around since the All Star race at Port . Be advised fans get there early on Sunday  .

What was wrong with the track during the All-Star race?  There was plenty of passing that night.   Dave Blaney, Marks, Sheldon, and Heimbach all moved up 7+ spots in the A.  I think Esh moved up pretty well too.  The race up front wasn't anything special, but that's because Dale Blaney ran off and hid. You could tell, even in his heat race, that his car was a dominant force though. 

Just curious.

Give Davey Brown 3 months at Knoxville every week (not 3 decades) and he would be the one doin the smoking.

Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Similar debate last year when Stevie was dominating the Grove. He went out to Knoxville as a "favorite" and didn't qualify. Lance is doing really well, lets get real about Knoxville. 

I am not a Dewease fan but saw him run in the top ten at Knoxville with some teams that are not near as strong as this combination can be ,with Brown"s motor and enough funds to make the trip you never know what could happen.

Last year Stevie was winning alot but not from midpack and going away like Lance has done this year passing Hodnett for all three wins That hasnt happened three other times in three years.

That would be cool. LD knows his way around Knoxville. I know Kreitz's team certainly has topnotch stuff but I don't know how much stuff nor what kind of a budget they have. BHG does a fantastic job helping out some local teams but I don't think they have the loot to finance a trip to Knoxville.

Stevie was fast last year but not like Dewease is now. It's been a very long time (probably back to when Rahmer was in the 88H) since we have seen a car dominate like they have so far. It's not just winning, he's flat out smoking everybody and passing some of the best in the business like they've got 360's under the hood. Granted they don't have many races together so far and August is a long ways off but if they go out there running like they are now, I would almost guarantee that if they qualify decent, they'd run top 5 and maybe even contend for the win. It may sound crazy but right now, I really do think they're that good.

The track for the All Star show was just fine. Dale Blaney was the best all night and he started up front so there was never a race for the lead but behind him there was lots of passing. Perhaps you forgot what Dave Blaney was able to do? In case you don't remember, he started 24th and finished 4th. Not too often you see a guy come from barely making it tbrough the Consi to run top 5. Are you ever happy with anything?????

Add Carl Bowser from Western PA to list of drivers going to Weikert Memorial. Not a threat to win but a good driver. 

You better check your facts and figures before you make IDIOTIC statements like above.  You said, "Stevie was winning alot but NOT FROM MIDPACK and going away like Lance has done, etc,

In Lance's three wins this year, May 8 at Susquehanna...he started 4th.  May 13 at the Grove, he started 5th.  May 20 at the Grove (Outlaw show) he started 3rd.

HARDLY MIDPACK.  Even Helen Keller can see that!
