Sherman is an ASCS Canyon Region Firecracker at Manzanita
by Lonnie Wheatley

PHOENIX, Ariz. (July 3, 2007) – Jeremy Sherman continues to be unstoppable in American Sprint Car Series Canyon Region competition at Manzanita Speedway, as he raced to victory lane in Tuesday night's Firecracker 50 lap feature atop the 1/3-mile clay oval.

 

The triumph aboard Fred Bryan's Wesmar-powered F&E Development No. 77 Maxim marked Sherman's ninth series triumph of the year in eleven events and kept him undefeated in ASCS Canyon Region action in seven events at Manzanita Speedway.

 

Chad Boat, an ASCS Canyon Region winner at Casa Grande on May 12, led the opening handful of circuits from the front row outside before Sherman began challenging for the point after earning the fifth starting position in the Pole Dash.

 

Sherman and Boat battled back and forth for the lead until Boat was forced pitside with mechanical problems, leaving Sherman to charge to the checkered flag.

 

Josh Pelkey claimed runner-up honors, with 16-year-old Michael Colegrove posting his best seris finish of the year by taking the show position.  Bruce St. James charged from 18th to finish fourth, with Chris Bonneau topping St. James' charge by racing from 23rd to round out the top five.

 

Mike Martin crossed the stripe sixth, with 19th-starter Ronnie Clark, Mike Leslie, Seainn Hendricsen and Andrew Reinbold completing the top ten.

 

Sherman raced from seventh to win the evening's opening heat race, with Scott Pasmore, Charles Davis, Jr., and Jeff Henry also victorious in heat race action.

 

Davis earned the pole for the feature, but was sent to the tail when he failed to report to the frontstretch within the mandated 25 minutes after the completion of the "B" Main as fireworks entertained the large crowd.  Andrew Reinbold and Nick Aiuto also earned passes to the tail of the field for not reporting on time.

 

Bobby Taylor won the "B" Main.
