Motorsports Wins Oshkosh Round 6 Plymouth, WI (July 27, 2009) - After mechanical issues created a slow start for the Mason Motorsports #1 Mendeola Transaxles Phil’s Inc. King Shocks Goodyear Super Buggy, the Bark River weekend was a great rebound performance for John Mason. Now could the black Super Buggy keep his move up in the championship standings going at the Oshkosh Speedzone? The .7mile track created inside and on the high banked half mile clay oval at the Speedzone, was a combination high speed jumps with a very long rhythm section that really put the fourteen Super Buggy drivers to the test. Friday – Round 5 The start had John starting at the back of the pack. When the racing began, the black Honda powered buggy quickly moved into third place by the second lap. Quickly, the battle of second between John and #2 Tim Lemons, was the focus of all the fans in the stands. On lap five, the King Shocks gave John a great run through the rhythm section, as Goodyear tires put all the Honda power to use around the dirt oval to move up on Lemons but could not make the pass for second. When the checkered flag came out Scott Schwalbe took the win with Tim Lemons, second, and John Mason, third. Saturday - Round 6 Similar to Friday night, John worked his way through the field from his back of the back spot on the starting grid. When the mandatory yellow came out, the #1 Mendeola Transaxle Phil’s Inc. King Shock Goodyear Super Buggy was right behind the leader, #29 Schwalbe. When green flag racing resumed, the Super Buggy field charged into the first turn with John Mason in the lead. The #1 Super Buggy quickly opened up a sizable lead. Then with two laps to go, John lost first gear, and it allowed Schwalbe to close gap considerably, on the 2008 Class Champion. As the two lead Super Buggies came out of the final turn and down the front straight, John Mason was able to fend off Schwalbe to take his first victory of the season.
The next
race for Mason Motorsports is August 8-9, in Bark River, Michigan.
