(Bill W) West Burlington, IA, September 18, 2016 – West Burlington, Iowa’s Jarrod Schneiderman had come close, but Saturday night he broke through for his first career win with the Shottenkirk.com Sprint Invaders.  The victory at 34 Raceway in his hometown was worth $1,500.  In addition, Chris Martin was crowned the 2016 champion for the series.  He needed only to start the feature event. Schneiderman shot out from his starting spot on the pole to lead the 25-lap feature early ahead of Cody Wehrle and Tyler Groenendyk.  The 3/8-mile oval was lightning fast, and the leader entered lapped traffic on the fifth circuit.  As Schneiderman stretched his lead, Groenendyk made a move on Wehrle to take over second on lap 11. This year’s champ, Chris Martin, was also on the move.  On lap 14, he made a move between Harold Pohren and John Schulz to take over fourth.  Three laps later, he had worked ...

The dry-slick ¼-mile oval was a driver’s track on Sunday.  Veteran Ryan Jamison worked the bottom to lead lap one, before the savvy John Schulz rode the cushion to steal the point on the second circuit.  Schulz led Jamison and another veteran, Robbie Standridge in the early going. Another veteran, Randy Martin passed Standridge to move into the top three on lap seven, but Chris Martin was on the move. Starting inside row five, he rode the berm around the bullring and swallowed up ...

Before a lap could be completed, John Schulz, Friday night’s winner at Lee County Speedway in Donnellson, Iowa, bicycled in turn three.  He got up on two wheels, and then one, but didn’t turn over.  Damage to the right front sidelined him, however. After that incident, the 25-lap feature went non-stop.  Jamison grabbed the lead from outside the front row at the outset, ahead of pole-sitter, ...
