La Salle PR
LA SALLE, IL (August 27) – The quest for La Salle Speedway’s 2011 top titles is behind the racers. Now the racing is just about who makes it to the finish line first not how many points will be collected. The points chase ended with the last regular night of racing on August 13th when the respective divisional champions were confirmed. Saturday night, those top finishers were honored in style on victory lane.

Mike Provenzano is a racer you can always count on to be running up front and finishing strong in the points chase. This season he stayed on track and scored his second UMP Late Model championship title at La Salle. Finishing fifty points behind Provenzano, was Rich Bell who has proven to be another impressive hot shoe on the high banks. Brett Sievert, even though he missed a few regular races, finished third in the chase.

Sievert hit the track running when he scored the fastest timed lap of 13.198. Ryan Dauber took the checkers for the first heat race contest after leading from the start. He and Sievert stayed close together until the finish. Scott Schmitt crossed the line third ahead of Rich Bell and Mike Provenzano. Keith Piano led the entire second heat race with a challenge by Dale Markham half way through the event. He took the win over Markham, Lake Knutti, Ed Williams Sr. and Joe Burba.

Dauber and Sievert found themselves side by side on the grid with Schmitt and Bell on their back bumpers. Once the green was signaled, Sievert darted to the lead. Sievert, Dauber, Bell, Schmitt and Provenzano chose to run a higher line while sixth place starter Mike Glynn found a road less traveled down low. He was on the move and challenging Dauber for second when officials called a yellow for debris on the track surface. The single file restart was led by Sievert over Dauber, Glynn, Bell, Schmitt, Provenzano, Darin Furar, and Billy Weistart Jr.

During Lap 14, Glynn flew to the inside line of Dauber and the two were in a brief side by side challenge until he took the runner up spot. One lap later, Bell pushed his way under a low running Glynn and ran over his drivers side back quarter area. The contact moved Glynn up the track ending an impressively fast run. Two laps later, a caution brought the pack nose to tail. After seeing Glynn’s fast track on the inside, the leaders moved down to where he was flying and stayed there. The remainder of the race was an uneventful follow the leader on the bottom all the way to the checkers.

Sievert collected the win over Dauber, Bell, Glynn, Schmitt, Provenzano, Jon Rogers, Furar, Burba, Markham, Piccatto, Gary Schalmo, Brian Lock, and Weistart.
