Beamer’s Hard Fought Battle Earns Him Career First Win at Clinton County Speedway


Mill Hall, PA – Josh Beamer of Picture Rocks, has always been a contender to win in the RaceSaver Sprint Car division at the Clinton County Speedway. On Friday night, Beamer parked his #85 in victory lane after a three-car battle for the lead while in heavy lapped traffic in an event that almost went nonstop. Other winners of the night included: AY Schilling of Linden the Pro Stock, Jeffrey Weaver of Lock Haven in the 270 Micro Sprints, Cody Hauck of Milton in the 600 Micro Sprints and Montgomery’s Blake Snyder in the Four Cylinders. Lock Haven’s Dakota Schweikart and former 3 Time Track Champion, Daryl Stimeling of Lewistown started on the front row for the feature event.

Smith would put two cars between him and the second place car of Schweikart and a few laps later Schweikart and Beamer would be on Smith’s back bumper. On lap number ten, Smith had his hands full, with Schweikart and Beamer followed by Stimeling and Ken Duke Jr. On lap number 20, Beamer passed Schweikart and Smith to take the lead. The top three drivers were all in contention as they continued to race through lapped traffic. On the white flap lap, the event’s only caution came out for Owen Dim who spun in turn number two. The restart created a one lap dash to the checkered. Beamer protected the low side entering turns one and two forcing Smith to the top side of the speedway. Beamer barely held the lead as he and Smith raced hard into turn numbers three and four. As they exited, Smith tried one more move and spun at the exit of turn four, collecting Schweikart, as Beamer crossed the line to claim the victory. “We’ve been racing RaceSaver for three years now, and I didn’t know if this day would come,“ said an excited Beamer in Victory Lane. “I knew Smith was there and I didn’t need that caution on the final lap. I knew my best shot was to protect the bottom.” Ken Duke finished second, Jarrett Cavalet was third, Garrett Bard was fourth, and Christian Rumsey completed the top five. Sixth through tenth were Tylor Cochran, Jeffrey Weaver, Daryl Stimeling, Dustin Prettyleaf and Ryan Kissinger. Heat races were won by Scott Lutz, Beamer and Smith. Eric Mathiot won the B-main.


Noah Kissinger and AY Schilling started on the front row of the Pro Stock main event. Schilling took the lead at the drop of the green flag.

Weaver was able to hold off the challenges of Seigel, followed by Spencer, Bittner and Stabley. Sixth through tenth were Zach Glass, Michael Petock, Logan Hammaker, Devan Blose, and Tom Quiggle. Heat races were won by Sean McAndrew, Glass, and Weaver.
Timmy Bittner and Cody Hauck brought the field of 600 Micro Sprints to the green flag. Hauck took the lead as the duo battled into turn number one. Johnny Smith advanced into the runner up position during the second lap and set his sights on Hauck. By the completion of lap number five, Hauck led Smith, Trevor Teats, Jeffrey Weaver and Sierra Hauck. Teats took the runner up position on lap number seven.
