FREMONT, Ohio - Steve Rando drove his 305 sprint car to victory over the 
tough NRA 350 Sprints Sunday on Wilhelm Auto Parts Night at Fremont 
Speedway.

In a reversal from Friday's night's NRA 350/305 Sprint Challenge at Limaland 
Motorsports Park, the Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprints captured 
seven of the top 10 spots at "The Track That Action Built." The race was run 
Sunday afternoon after Saturday afternoon showers.

Rando passed early leader John Ivy - who normally wheels a 410 sprint - late 
in the race and held off a charging Brad Bowman for his second career 
victory at Fremont Speedway. The 24-year-old Lindsey, Ohio resident made it 
to the Engine Pro Victory Lane aboard the Davis Fabrication, Attitudes Hair 
Salon, Garza Construction backed #19R.

Byron Reed may have started the season on a slow pace, but the Monclova, 
Ohio driver has picked it up of late as he tries to earn his third track 
championship at Fremont Speedway. He passed Greg Wilson - who towed all 
night from Knoxville, Iowa - late in the 30-lap feature for the Fort Ball 
Pizza Palace 410 Sprints to record his fourth win of the season and the 17th 
of his career at Fremont. Reed's victory came aboard the family-owned Reebar 
Diecasting, ProShocks, JEI Chassis, Schoenfeld Mufflers backed #5.

The Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks take center stage at "The Track That Action 
Built" on Wednesday, Aug. 20, during the Sandusky County Fair. BMS Engines 
and Excuses Lounge of Sandusky will provide the sponsorship for the night of 
racing which will also feature the vintage race cars. There is no racing at 
Fremont Speedway on Saturday, Aug. 16.
