A great night of racing at the "Track the Stars Call Home" Spartan Speedway.  Auto Value showed with 20 strong competitors all wanting to make the race an event the fans will remember and doing the one of a kind salute to the fans by parading 3 wide before the start of the race.  The Spartan Speedway facility located in Mason, Michgan is a premier track that many of the Auto Value Sprint Car drivers honed their skills.  Drivers include Derek Snyder, Johnboy Hotchkiss, Bill Tyler, Curt Shumaker and Dennis Craft. 
The Auto Value Bumper to Bumper Feature finish started with Tyler(24) and Bloom (26) on the pole.  The drivers took the green only to have a caution on the first lap taking out Bloom, Litt( 07L)  and Underwood (4).  On the second side by side restart the pole cars were Tyler and Blonde.  Not only competitors, but teammates in the TNT Promotion owned cars.  Hank Lower in the (37) machine dropped out early in lap 3 with engine trouble.  Tyler in the (24) leads the way until lap 8, when the second caution of the evening brings the yellow flag to the stripe.  Tyler runs hard in the (24), however Blonde in the (42) makes the turn in three and four to take the lead.  The (42) of Blonde survives 4 more cautions to take the checkers.  A terrific run by all of the Auto Value Bumper to Bumper SuperSprint drivers.  A clean drive by veteran Driver Davey Brown in the Tracey Rice owned #69 machine.  Davey started in the 12th spot and made a fantastic top ten by finishing in 6th spot.  The (3A) of Austrauskas started in the 13th hole and completed the feature finishing 8th. The #99 of Ike Beasley took a caution in lap 23, went to the tail and still finished an astounding 9th.   The final lap of the feature also proved to be exciting as the checker flew for Blonde and the caution also came out at the same time. The Auto Value Bumper to Bumper Super Sprints  would like to thank the Staff and fans of Spartan Speedway for their generous hospitality.  We are the "Fastest Short Track Show cars in the World".
