HIESTER'S H.O. RACEWAY

The 2nd Half Schedule is now posted on the schedule tab at the top of the page.

Tonight Thursday January 9, 2025, was the Sixth Race of the 2024-2025 Hiester's H.O. Raceway season for the Sprint Car Division and we had 20 drivers in attendance for the event sponsored by GMI First Mechanical, and picking up the victory tonight was the wiley ole veteran Mike "Bear" Feltenberger.  Bear won 5 races onhis way to the win.  Coming home second only 2 track sections behind was Sheldon Hiester, also winning 5 races onthe night.  Third spot went to Shane Hiester, who won 4 races on the night.  Fourth place went to Steve Windle running a good race tonight, winning 2 races on the night.  Rounding out the Top 5 in fifth was Jim Petersheim, winning 2 races on the night.  The rest of the field finished up like this: 6-Elmer Santiago (2 wins), 7-Scottie Heilman (1 win), 8-Andrew Cremer (3 wins), 9-Gilbert Zerbe, 10-Brian Zerbe, 11-Tom Hiester, 12-Jazmin Santiago, 13-Bob Windle, 14-Jim LeVan, 15-Joe Keesey Sr., 16-Michael Hutt, 17-Thomas Hoover, 18-Joe Keesey Jr., 19-Dave Figura, and 20-Lyle Spiegel.  The racing was intense all night amongst everyone in attendance tonight, as it made for some fun and tough racing each race on the track.  It was good having Michael Hutt back with us after he had to miss the pass couple of races due to work obligations, and he did well in is return coming home with a 16th place finish.  Rookie Dave Figura had a bit of a rough night in his new #57 Kyle Larson Hendrickcars.com car, after bubbling out on Lane 3 with only 6 laps and ended the night with a few better runs with scores of 12 and 13 laps in those races helping salvage a 19th place finish on the night, I'm sure Dave will get all of the kinks worked out with the Larson car before the next sprint race in 2 weeks.  Both Brian and Gilbert Zerbe turned in strong Top 10 finishes and both almost picked up a race win, but both fell short in the final laps of the races as they were battling strong for the win.  Joee Keesey turned in his best run of the season so far as the young 9 yr. old known as Slo Joe turned in a season best 71 laps on his way to his 18th place finish.  After the main event was finished we had a Cash Dash sponsored by GMI First Mechanical as well and picking up the victory inthat was Shane Hiester, followed by Joe Keesey Sr. in 2nd, and Dave Figura in 3rd.  We are back in action next Thursday Night January 19, with our Modifieds doing battle on the night being sponsored by Randy's Raceway of Topton, PA.  Warm-ups begin at 6PM and the 1st Race to start around 7PM.  But before that on Saturday January 11, Zerbe's H.O.Raceway will be holding its 2nd race there with Warm-ups beginning at 2PM and the 1st Race to start at 3PM.
