Jacob Knipmeyer picked up another Win at Sweet Springs Raceway in the Nonwing Class. Jacob has been HOT this year

Riley Adair in his Black Beauty,Won the Nonwing Feature and then backed it up by taking the Win in the A Class (stock).
Frank Flud took his fourth ASCS2 Outlaw Feature of the year, leading from green to checkered.
The Restrictor Class was a total Factor 1 race, with Logan Martin and Dillion Ake battling for most of the race and Will Harvey coming from his tenth starting position and making the middle groove work for him for his 1st ASCS2 A Feature Win.
AUGUST UPDATE
At Bakersfield Raceway Park in Linton, IN, Brandon Morin showed the crowd how to come from
the back and take home the money. Brandon has been doing very well this year.
Jacob Richardson took home the WIN in the Restrictor class at Gulf Coast Speedway.
At Port City Raceway, Friday night Aug 13, Frank Flud was the man to beat. He started near the
back and passed cars like they were sitting still. Frank took home the WIN Friday night in Outlaw Class and ran 2nd Saturday night . I always enjoy watching Frank Flud race. He loves the high side and it is always exciting to watch him. He had the whole crowd cheering for him both nights.
In the A Class and Nonwing Class Saturday night, the racer to watch was Riley Adair. He also started on the back in BOTH classes and made his way to the front in BOTH classes. Riley loves the high groove also, but he is fast on the bottom when he needs to be. Riley is another racer that is exciting to watch. He doesn't race every weekend, but it great to watch him when he does. 2 WINS in one night.....that great.
In the Jr Sprint Class Saturday night, it was our little Joey Schmidt that made everyone sit up and watch. Joey started in the rear of the feature and methodically made his way to the front passing everyone he came to. This little guy has made some major improvements this year. He
is going to be one of the ones to watch out for in the future. Keep up the good work Joey.
NONWING NATIONAL UPDATE and WEEKEND NEWS
Port City's Non Wing Nationals, with 120 car count they had 6 B features in the stock class and 2 B features in the Outlaw. For the amount of cars, the race track was in pretty good shape, but as expected it turned off dry slick. This was Jason's first non wing race, he done extremely well on the dry slick track conditions. A voltage rectifier problem took him out the first nite, and he came back to be second high point qualifier Saturday. He got hung up with Christopher Martin on a restart and both had to go to the back, to all 4 bar car owners you need to shorten the front stop bolts that's what got hung up on Christopher's rear bumper.
Logan Martin, White Plains, Mo. pretty much dominated both days in the restricted class, winning his heats, dash for cash scramble and the features both nites. But I have to give Justin Fletcher the hard charger award, getting caught up in three incidents and having to go to back and each time putting it up on the cushion and coming back to the front. I also need to congratulate our other restrictor racers that put on a hell of a show, Cord Dodson, Josh Albertson, Steven Curbow, Cole Hall, Christopher Martin, Jason McDougal and Will Harvey.
In the Stock Class, Factor 1 once again dominated taking the top 4 spots, Chris Andrews, Kody Conley, Riley Adair and Alex Sewell.
In the Outlaw Class, Jesse Frazier won Friday nite with Riley Adair finishing second ( Riley also finished 6th in the stock class)
Alex Sewell ran Third in his 3 day old car, not to bad to not even having a lap on it and taking 2 top 4 spots in the classes that he ran.
Kevin Bayer's weekend started off with a flip in Fridays nites feature which would start him in the B Saturday. Kevin ran second in the B which would give a 20th starting spot in the A in which he would finish 5th. That would give him the Hard Charger Award for passing the most cars in all classes Saturday.
I think that Hannah Adair would probably, in my memory, be the first girl to qualify and finish in the top ten both days at the Non Wing Nationals. She also won both her heats.
Since we are on the girls, Sarah Elrod took home the money again in the Outlaw Class at Us 24 Speedway.
Colton Corbin had his best finish of the year with a second place down at Cow Town Speedway, he's also got a pretty cool web site. www.coltoncorbin29.com Congrads to Colton and David.
Zak Taylor almost pulled a double at Bakersfield Raceway Park, Linton, In. Qualifying 1st in non wing and 3rd in the Outlaw Friday nite. Winning his heats in both classes and then winning the Outlaw A main and finishing second in the non wing A main. Saturday nite they went to Coles County for their Non Wing Nationals where he won his heat and starting ninth in the second heat which he finished 4th gave him 3rd high points for the nite. He ran most of the race in second, but ended up 5th after trying the top going for the win. Good job Zak.
Jacob Knipmeyer won the non wing class at Sweet Springs
MORE JULY UPDATES What a weeknd of racing, first off Jason McDougal(our Grandson) wins his first
Restrictort A Feature at Port City Friday night, after winning his heat race the same night.
Saturday nights feature in the Restrictor Class was probably the best race of the night.
Steven Curbow and Justin Fletcher(AKA Bob) started off on the first row and Jason
McDougal, being high point qualifier for the night started 3rd row inside. Logan Martin
from White Plains, Mo and Christopher Martin from Des Moines, IA, filled out the 4th row.
At the drop of the green flag, Justin Fletcher took contol and lead most of the race with
Steven Curbow right behind him. Jason moved into fourth and Logan passed him on the
outside for third. Christopher had an issue with a slower car and the front straightway
wall resulting in a broken rod end. This was by far the most exciting race of the night, with
the leaders getting into lap traffic by lap 5 with Fletcher in the lead and Curbow just waiting
for him to bobble. Logan and Jason were right behind them with very little space in between.
The Nonwing and A Class were totally dominated by Alex Sewell (Nonwing) and Tyler
Thomas (A Class), both of which won by a straight away over second.
In the Outlaw feature we saw Frank Flud and Kevin Bayer come from the rear of the field
as nonfirst day qualifiers, running 4th and 5th. Kevins finish does not reflect the race that
he ran as battery problems slowed him in the closing laps. But still another great showing
for the Factor 1 guys.
Jacob Knipmeyer has been HOT this year and took home yet another feature July 10th in
Sweet Springs, MO. Laney Feight from Iowa went down to Sweet Springs to show them
how to take the trophy home in the Restrictor Class. Congratulations to all Factor 1 winners.
July 16, Zac Taylor took home the Win in the Multi Class at Bakersfield Raceway Park in
Linton, IN. He also finished 2nd in the Nonwing Class. Zac has a great season going.
Sara Elrod took over the job of setting up her own car this last weekend and she swept the
whole night. She totally dominated the Winged Class. She says she loves her Factor 1. Keep
up the good work girl.
Jason McDougal won his second feature in the last 3 races at Port City Raceway with a last lap,
last corner pass for the win. It was great. We are very proud of him.
Frank Flud dominated at I-44 in the Multi Class last weekend. This young man is fun to watch.
He has multiple A Feature wins already this year.
At Sweet Springs, Mo, Jacob Knipmeyer is dominating the Nonwing Class with yet another win.
He is also leading the point championship in the Nonwing Class. Christopher Martin, from Iowa,

July 17 at Gulf Coast Speedway in Alvin, TX, Weldon Buford showed everyone how to get around the
race track and across the finish line first. Weldon has 4 Restrictor Wins this year and also has taken
home 2 A Class wins. This young man is running great this year.

May Update
After the first weekend of May was ruined for Oklahoma micro racers with spring rains and floods throughout the state, the second weekend of May proved to be a very exciting time for many in the FACTOR 1 family of racers in Oklahoma, Missouri, Indiana, and Texas..
At Port City Raceway in the Sportsman class Josiah McGinnis scored a second place finish in the A feature after a win in his heat race.
In the restrictor class it was "The Hurricane" Hannah Adair finishing on top after getting dropped to the back in the opening laps of the feature. That's two A feature wins in 09 with many more to come.
Frank Flud was the first to take the checkers in the Multi A feature plus a win in his heat race.
Will Rogers Raceway turned out to be just the place for the up and coming Tyler Thomas to showcase his talents with an A feature win in restrictor action Friday and Saturday. Friday night Tyler took the lead with only a couple of circuts completed in the race and kept the lead until the checkers flew. Saturday night was much the same with Tyler checking out early on , he was able to hold onto a commanding lead despite multiple cautions throughout the A feature.
Down the turnpike in OKC Factor 1 customers also took advantage of the break in the wet weather.
The Restrictor A feature started with Justin "Bob" Fletcher beginning the race in the sixteenth position, but with his determination and a rocketship setup from his dad and crew, Bob was able to pilot his machine to the front and capture his second A feature win of 2009.
Brent Venable gave an impressive performance with a win in the "A-class" and a runner up finish in the Limited class A features.

Jake Brewer from Missouri won this weekend at Charleston, IL and had a win 2 weeks ago at Will Rogers Raceway.
Halen Shafer from Kokomo, IN moved up to the Multi class this year, and has a very impressive start. He
