Monroe, WA (September 24, 2006): On Saturday night September 23,
Evergreen Speedway’s NASCAR Championship Night at the Races honored
eight season champions. They join the Speedway Chevrolet NASCAR
Super Stock Champion Shane Harding who won the honor a week ago. The
2006 Champions are Duane Schosboek in the Les Schwab Tires NASCAR
Bomber Division, Mark Weedin from the NASCAR Mini-Stocks, Steve
Peters a third in a row as a Super Figure Eight competitor, Troy
Simianer won the Extreme Contact championship and Cody Koroshes won
his first in the Stinger 8 Division. The Northwest Legend Series now
has three divisional champions. The Pro winner is Randy Schaaf,
Semi-Pro is Nick Carey and the Master Division champ is Rob Hawton.
Schosboek won his first NASCAR Championship to go with his ten
previous WWRA Limited Stocks championships. A safe tenth place
finish in the season ending race locked up the prestigious
championship. Race winner Travis Blackwood was the strongest he had
been all season. Dave Stewart finished second ahead of Craig Rowalt.
NASCAR Mini-Stock season champion Mark Weedin finished the final
race in fifth and that was enough to win his first ever divisional
crown. Nat Barber who finished second to Weedin in the points chase
won the main. Second place in the race was Bob Edwards and Joe Hobbs
finished third.
Northwest Legend Series Semi-Pro Division Champion Nick Carey won
the main event to go with his first title. Pro Division Champ Randy
Schaaf had a large enough point advantage to absorb a mechanical
problem and a DNF. Masters Division 2006 season champion Rob Hawton
makes it his first. In the final main of the season Rowan Carey
finished second and Tracy Warren was third.
The Stinger 8 championship was not decided until the final lap of
their main. Cody Koroshes made a pass for the lead with only 5-laps
remaining and that pass won him the championship by just 4-points.
Mike Middleton had a 4-point cushion to start the final night of
racing. A disappointing ninth in the race was too far back of
Koroshes. Sean Peters was second in the race and Bobby Shukar third.
Super Figure Eight driver Steve Peters won his third in a row
division championship. A strong second place race finish cemented
the title for the long time competitor. Greg Scott drove off to win
the main event and behind Peters in third it was John Carlson.
There was no question on who the 2006 Extreme Contact Figure Eight
Champion would be. Troy Simianer not only won the title but also
dominated the final race of the season. Benny Raynes finished the
main in second and Ashley Shukar was third.
Next Up at Evergreen Speedway is the season ending Demolition
Derby/Fireworks Night of Destruction. Besides the Derby there will
be Hornet Races, School Bus Figure Eights, Boat Races, Roll-Over
Contest and a School Bus Demolition Derby. Start time for the annual
event is 7:00pm. Tickets are available for the famous Evergreen
Speedway Derby on line at www.evergreenspeedway.com and via the
phone call 360 805-6100.
