FREMONT, Ohio (Saturday, May 20, 2006) - Bryan Sebetto's night went from good to bad to fantastic at Fremont Speedway Saturday as the Fremont driver claimed the Third Annual Roots Poultry ASCS SOD 360/Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprint Challenge.

In the 410 sprint A-main, Clyde's Bryan Scott scored his first career 410 sprint win. Coupled with his victories in 305 sprint racing, Scott now has 21 wins at "The Track That Action Built.

Sebetto - a 305 sprint driver - won his heat, but the motor in his Matt Poltner owned sprinter blew up at the checkered. His crew loaded up and went to nearby engine builder Scott Gressman's shop to finish building a motor and installing the new power plant just in time for the start of the 25-lap
feature. Sebetto - a 305 sprint driver - won his heat, but the motor in his Matt Poltner owned sprinter blew up at the checkered. His crew loaded up and went to nearby engine builder Scott Gressman's shop to finish building a motor and installing the new power plant just in time for the start of the 25-lap feature.

"This win  I owe completely to my crew...they worked their tails off changing motors. They even had to assemble the spare before we could put it in," said an elated Sebetto beside his Madison Street Tavern sponsored #01. "I can't say enough about Scott Gressman...he builds us a pretty darn good engine and he opened up his shop to get us into the feature."

"My car owner went to watch the World of Outlaws....he isn't here tonight. He was probably upset when we called and told him we blew the motor. Wait until he gets this next phone call," added Sebetto about his second win of the year at "The Track That Action Built."

For Scott, the win was even sweeter, as the Clyde driver destroyed his car three weeks earlier at Attica.

"I have to thank Rich Farmer...he's put a lot of money into this. After that wreck, I didn't know if we'd go racing again, but he told me not to worry and we went and got this car from Mark Keegan. I told the guys after the heat this car is better than the one we wrecked," said Scott beside his Burns Iron & Metal/Napa Fremont Auto Parts sponsored #37z.

"Guy Meyers knows how to set a race car up for a slick race track...his record with John Ivy proves that," added Scott.

Sixty-six cars made up the combined 360/305 sprint field. That, coupled with the 37 Fort Ball Pizza 410 sprints packed the pits with 103 sprint cars.

At the start of the 360/305 A-main - with 12 from each of the two classes comprising the 24-car field - Tim Allison jumped into the lead with Cory Seeling and Sebetto in tow. Sebetto's night nearly went from bad to worse on lap 3, as he slide off the high side of turn one, but lost only two spots. On lap six, Allison continued to lead over Seeling, with Sebetto moving back into third, and Steve Rando in fourth. All eyes were on Bill Kraylek and Paul Weaver, who started 15th and 22nd respectively, but had moved into the top 10.

Sebetto shot around Seeling into second on lap nine, and slid around Allison a lap later for the lead. At the half-way mark, Sebetto led over Seeling, 13th starting A.J. Sleek and Kraylek.

The first and only caution in the feature would fly on lap 17 for a stalled Mike Dussell. Sebetto held the point with two lapped cars separating he and Seeling, Sleek, Kraylek, Rando and Weaver. On the restart, Sleek slid off the top of turn one, losing several positions. While Sebetto was building a huge lead, the battle was for second through fifth. By lap 19, Kraylek had moved into second with Seeling and Weaver in tow. With five laps to go, Kraylek - utilizing the low groove - moved into second, bring Weaver into third and dropping Seeling to fourth.

That's the way they would end up at the checkered, with Rando rounding out the top 5.

The finish break-down shows 305 sprint racers holding four of the first five positions. Seeling would be the highest finishing 360 driver (fourth) and defending SOD champion Tim Norman would be the highest finishing SOD driver (6th).

David Harrison would bolt into the lead at the drop of the green for the 410 sprint feature, with Mark Keegan, John Finsel, Mike Linder and Byron Reed following. By lap four, Harrison continued to lead over Keegan, with Linder moving into third, Reed into fourth and 7th starting Bryan Scott into fifth.

The first of two cautions would fly on lap 5 for a Jamie Miller spin with the running order Harrison, Keegan, Linder, Reed, Scott, Rob Chaney, Finsel and Brian Smith. Harrison and Keegan would run side-by-side for the next three laps for the lead.

By lap nine, Harrison had gotten away from Keegan, and the fans began to notice the charge of John Ivy from 17th to 8th. By lap 11, Harrison continued to lead, but Scott had moved into second, with Linder and Reed following.

Scott used the middle and high side of the track to shoot around Harrison and into the lead on lap 12. At the half-way mark, Scott hit lapped traffic with Harrison now getting pressure from Keegan and Linder for the runner-up spot, as Ivy had moved into fifth.

With just six laps remaining, the running order was Scott, Harrison, Keegan, Ivy and Linder. Ivy's march to the front would end four laps later, as he tried to move around Keegan for third he got into the lapped car of Jon Finsel, spinning both machines.

Scott held a two lapped car advantage on the restart with just two laps remaining and went on to the win. Keegan would get around Harrison on the last lap for second, with Bobby Clark and Linder rounding out the top five.

Fremont Speedway has a busy weekend of racing on tap on May 27 and 29.
