Get A
Great
Weekend
Of
Racing
At
Winchester
Speedway
Winchester, IN (September
2, 2008) – Fans got a
great weekend of racing in
the annual Labor Day
Weekend World Stock Car
Festival this past weekend
on
 the
famous High Banks of
Winchester Speedway. With
hardly a cloud in the sky
the whole weekend, fans
were treated to seven
different divisions of
racing including nine
feature events that saw
nine different winners go
to victory lane. There was
a great crowd that
supported the event all
weekend including a large
amount of campers that
have come to enjoy this
signature end of summer
event.
In the CRA Super Series
McGunegill Engine
Performance 100 Presented
By The U.S. Army, Rick
Turner got his first ever
CRA win at Winchester
Speedway. The veteran
series racer got the lead
from his outside pole
starting position to lead
all 100 laps in an event
that had several yellows
including a big lap 77
crash that ended the day
for several racers
including Don Young who’s
car was turned head on
into the turn one
retaining wall totally
destroying the car,
thankfully Young walked
away from the scary crash.
Turner would survive
several restarts to get
the victory, his third
with the series and second
during the 2008 season.
"We had an awesome car
today," an excited Turner
stated in victory lane.
"After Saturday I would
have been happy to finish
the race, to win is
incredible. I have been
wanting to get a victory
at this track for a long
time!"

Redmond drew well starting
on the outside of the
front row. From that
position he took the lead
for the first seven laps
of race before Steve
 Christman
chased him down and passed
for the lead on the 7 lap.
Christman's time up
front would be limited
though as his car
developed problems and he
was forced to drop out on
the 13th lap handing the
lead back to Redmond.
As the laps wore down
Redmond had built a strong
lead, when a caution flew
giving the rest of the
field a chance to restart
right on his tail.
"I
really wanted to get a
good restart."
Redmond stated. "I
have to get that car so I
am not caught between
gears when the green flag
drops. but tonight
it all worked out"

for the Max 40 the last
race for the 2008 World
Stock Car Festival at

He held on to
 the
lead for 20 laps before
Bret Miles, Jr. tracked
him down to take the lead.
Miles, Jr. was battling
Carl Muffley with just
three laps to go when his
right rear tire blew out
on the front straightaway
causing Miles to bounce
off the wall into
Muffley's path.
Muffley made contact, but
was able to continue, and
held on to win.
"I hate
to win this way, I thought
we were going to have a
great time there at the
end, but Bret's (Miles)
tire blew. I got
into him, but this old car
is pretty solid so we came
out alright."
Muffley stated. "I
really like to race these
guys, Bret is a solid
competitor that makes me
work hard for the pass,
and he races hard and
clean."
