Wins by 6 seconds and it only took him 23 laps to lap all the way up to 8th place. More impressive than Sheldon in 55 laps. 



I said it before and I'll say it again, by his own admission, Schatz was so far behind Sheldon that he (Schatz) thought he was ahead!

I do not know the lap times sheldon was running in the feature, I'm guessing around 12 second laps, and he won by over 10 seconds.  So Sheldon had to be about 2 or 3 seconds from lapping Schatz in second place.

Well we're I'm from as soon as hi school football starts you see a decline in attendance, and that's all area tracks. You add college ball into the picture and yes it does make a difference in western pa.



 Western Pa football is some of the best in the country. Central pa football is weak.

Not really seeing the point to this post, how many cars did the second or third place drivers pass. Should we throw that in here

Well said, I missed last night for the first time in years but watched it on DirtVision, if you think his performance was the 3rd highlight of the night, you weren't paying attention, even his performance in the late model was awesome to watch. River Cities Speedway is an awesome race track esp. come feature time when like you said the drivers hit lap traffic.



I was at the race and watching the leaders go thru traffic was mesmerizing. Nobody does traffic like Schatz!

Good point about Schatz in traffic.  The one instance, where the slower car bobbled in front of him.  It was almost like he saw that was gonna happen and was ready for it.  Other drivers might have not been so quick to adjust. just my opinion
