Show Page Ten - The Springville Herald - May 7, 1997 Saintana Rac'roay ! by Don Nengas ! It was MAC Tools night at Suntana Raceway and the feature class running on the 410 mile paved oval were the Salt lake Valley Racing Association 360 Winged Sprints. Also on hand were the Utah Super Midgets along with the local Street Stocks, Late Model Sportsman and Thunder Trucks. This was the opening race for the SIVRA Sprints, and as usual, the season started out with a bang as during hot laps, Mel Andrus lost a wheel coming out of turn two and ended up on his lid against the back straight wall. With a lot of help and spare parts from his competitors, Andrus And-rus was not only able to make it back to qualify, but set fast time of 16,141 and win the $100 fast time award given by Custom Industries. And then to top off the night, Andrus came within a whisker of winning the main event. First heat race winner Mike Baisch took the early lead of the 24-lap feature followed by T. J. Thorne, Dave Fitzgerald, Mark Bergener and Andrus. Fitzgerald moved into second on lap two and Andrus was up to third by the end of lap three. Rookie Brian Evans spun off turn one into the catch tires on lap five bringing out the first yellow flag. Andrus moved around Fitzgerald into second on the restart. Marty Dailey worked his way up from the rear of the field and was fourth by lap nine but headed for the pits a few laps later as did rookie, Mike Gorrin-ger. Gorrin-ger. Fitzgerald broke a shock or something and went to the pits on about lap 18. Andrus got up along side of Baisch on lap 20 going into turn two but slid his right side tires off onto the dirt on the back stretch and lost about five car lengths to the leader. At the Joe Anderson checkers, Baisch Bai-sch took the win ahead of Andrus, And-rus, Thorne, Bergener and rook ie, Phil Mortenson. The best race of the evening was the Thunder Truck main where "Ironman, Kim Lawrence took the early lead with heat race winner, Gary Pierce, on his qutside, which is the way they : ran the entire race. Rookie, Lou VanderHerp spun from the number four position posi-tion on lap four with Harvey Bates and Chuck Hauber going into the dirt to miss hitting him and the yellow waved. The single file restart did not stay that way long as Pierce moved right back p on Lawrence's outside and continued pressuring him for the balance of t he ten lapper. Lawrence Law-rence and Pierce took the white flag neck and neck at the startfinish line and ran the last lap side-by-side with Pierce taking the win at the checkers by about a fender length. Jason Lowder claimed third ahead of WanderHerp and Bates. Street Stocker Kevin Stauffer took both the heat race and the main event. In three weeks of racing, no one else has won a SS race. Pole sitters Bruce McCarthy and Jamie Mickelson got together and slid off the front straight as the first lap of the SS feature was completed and Mike Mommer took the lead over Stauffer, Chad Pruitt, Dennis Smith and Chuck Roth. Stauffer got inside of Mommer Mom-mer on lap five going into the lead as Mormmer spun on the back straight. Stauffer took the checkers in front of Pruitt, McCarthy, Mc-Carthy, Mommer and Smith. Scott Grifferth took the lead of the Late Model main and pulled away as newcomer Mike Barnes held off Kim Griffeth for second with Jeff Hillock holding down fourth place.

Beach, Benjamin Davies, James Carlson, Lindsay and Daniel Gardner and Tyler Kelly. Teens winning first place trophies were Lori Gardner, Ben and Catelyn Piatt, Angela Neilsen and Jamie Ellis.

Dennis and Ann Tolley, owners of Royal West Martial Arts of Springville, were testing for their 2nd Degree Black Belts and three of their children, Samuel, Joseph and Jacob, were testing for their 1st Degree Black Belts. At the front of the room was the testing board members who had ranks from 4th Degree to 9th Degree Black Belt and had come from as far away as Chicago. The Tolley's would be expected to perform with precision and accuracy meany different forms, self defense techniques, sparring techniques as well as presenting routines with traditional karate weapons. The last part of the test was board breaking five one-inch pine boards, 12"xl2" square which each black Belt candidate was required to break in succession succes-sion with kicks, punches and strikes. The Tolley boys trained for seven years to prepare for this test. At the end of the test, after the board members had conferen-ced conferen-ced together, the boys were called up one at a time and their new belt was tied around their waist by Grand Master Ok Hyung Kim, 9th Degree Black Belt. Their instructors, who were also their mom and dad, were nearly in tears with pride. And the boys felt that same strong pride as the 2nd Degree Black Belts were tied around the waists of their parents. p.m. Smul904 flSii! my- m 5 fcf 1 1 11151 1M S' Ul People may wonder if a family fami-ly where five members have earned the rank of Black Belt has a problem with physical confrontations. confron-tations. Training in the martial arts, and especially training together as a family, has given each of the Tolley's confidence, self control and above all, a profound respect for each other. There is a closeness and warmth between family members which is remarkable. The knowledge knowl-edge that your mom can break two boards at once with a side kick isn't the element which keeps the teenagers respectful, but rather the idea that the family is all on the same team and a team works together.
