Third Win For Schafer At SCVR
After a last minute downpour washed out the races last Friday night, fans and racers returned in droves for the re-boot of kids’ night at St. Croix Valley Raceway. With a local fire truck on hand for the kids to test out their dousing skills, and an on-track autograph session to start the show, kids and parents were entertained into the wee hours with thrilling action. The Northern Vintage Stockcar Racers joined the fun, with Greg Scheffer and Dennis Olson claiming wins in their respective vintage divisions. Regular SCVR wins went to Damon Roberts, Ben Kaphing, Ty Sampair, Cam Shafer, Jason VandeKamp and Scott Splittstoesser.
A series record-tying eighteen car field thundered to green for the 25-lap UMSS Traditional Sprint feature, with outside pole starter Kevin “the Rocketman” Bradwell leading the way early. Within a handful of laps, Cam Schafer took over the lead and Bradwell pulled into the infield one lap later. Rookie sprinter Jon Lewerer was looking strong running second in front of fellow rookie “The New Richmond Nightmare” Chase Viebrock. Behind Viebrock were reigning Traditional 40 champion Jeff Pellersels and reigning series champion Rob Caho Jr. With seemingly everyone embroiled in a multi-groove throttle-fest for position behind him, Schafer cruised to the win in front of Lewerer, Caho, Mike Mueller and Viebrock. The win was Schafer’s third visit to Anderson’s Maple Syrup victory lane in four events at The Valley this season.
