Waynesfield, Ohio (June 21st, 2015) – Sheldon Haudenschild earned the Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by Cometic Gasket victory on Sunday night, June 21st at the Waynesfield Raceway Park in Waynesfield, Ohio. It was Haudenschild’s first UNOH All Star Circuit of Champions victory of the 2015 season and his second career victory with the series. The Wooster, Ohio native survived one caution, countless laps of lapped traffic and a continuous battle with James McFadden to win at the Waynesfield bullring. Haudenschild now has three consecutive podium finishes with the UNOH All Stars during the 2015 edition of Speedweek.

“This feels great” said Sheldon Haudenschild, “I just want to thank all of my sponsors and my crew….my mom and dad…everyone…this wouldn’t be possible without all of those guys…I want to give Bonzai Bruns credit for helping us change things around a little bit…hopefully we can do this night-in and night-out.”

After taking sole command of the 35-lap main event with 22 laps in the books, Sheldon Haudenschild, who started fourth on the grid, navigated the top side of the race track; keeping ‘Aussie’ native James McFadden and pole sitter Tim Shaffer at bay. Despite a few slide job attempts by McFadden to get back by Haudenschild during the closing circuits, it was the familiar black ‘93’ hanging on for the $5,000 victory.

“Oh man, I love coming to this place” Haudenschild said, “I was a little worried in the heat race…it got pretty slick, then they ended up watering it right before the feature…we got rolling around there in the ‘A’ and then I knew we had a good track to race on…I had a blast racing with James (McFadden).”

James McFadden would hang on to finish second after starting the on the pole. Tim Shaffer, who joined McFadden on the front row for the start of the A-main, would come home third. With the victory, Sheldon Haudenschild now extends his lead in the 33rd Annual Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by Cometic Gasket standings heading into Monday night’s program at Wayne County Speedway.

A strong field of 50 UNOH All Star Circuit of Champions ‘410’ sprint cars signed in for competition at the Waynesfield Raceway Park high banks on Sundayafternoon. The All Star roster was split into five groups of ten qualifiers with all drivers qualifying against those in their respective heat race. Brady Bacon, Tim Shaffer, Steve Kinser, Cody Darrah, and Roger Crockett each earned ‘fast time’ during their respective group qualifying efforts, with Tim Shaffer earning the fastest time of the night overall during qualifying time trials; recording an official time of 10.763 seconds around the 1/3 mile dirt oval. Brady Bacon, Greg Wilson, Nate Dussel, and Jared Horstman rounded out the top five fastest qualifiers.

Preliminary action would continue with five 10-lap heat races with the top-four finishers transferring to the 35-lap main event. Brady Bacon, Chad Kemenah, ‘The King’ Steve Kinser, Sheldon Haudenschild, and Oregon native Roger Crockett each earned victories during heat race competition. Sprint car ‘Hall of Fame’ inductee Danny Smith picked up the evening’s C-main victory.

James McFadden earned the UNOH All Star dash victory; guaranteeing the pole position for the $5,000-to-win, 35-lap main event. All preliminary competition would come to a close after Stuart Brubaker picked up the B-main victory.

The 33rd Annual Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by Cometic Gasket will move ahead to the Wayne County Speedway in Orrville, Ohio on Monday evening, June 22nd. The Orrville oval hosted the UNOH All Star Circuit of Champions once already in 2015 with ‘The Law Firm’ Parker Price-Miller earning the victory. It was a career-first UNOH All Star victory for the teenager out of Kokomo, Indiana. The 2014 Ohio Sprint Speedweek visit to Wayne County Speedway was canceled due to inclement weather.

The Monday night, June 22nd visit to Wayne County Speedway will be round four of the 2015 Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by Cometic Gasket schedule. Gates are scheduled to swing open at 3PM. Hot laps will hit the speedway at 6PM, followed by racing action at 7PM. For more information, please visit the official online home of Wayne County Speedway at www.waynecountyspeedway.com.
