Doug Zimmerman in Winged Sprint Cars, Tim Wilber in UMP Modifieds, Jake Rendel in Sportsman and Kevin Butters in Street Stocks all captured feature wins at the Butler Motor Speedway.

  A hot Saturday night and a season winding down, would greet the racers as the UMP Modifieds would roll out as the first feature event of the night.  Steve Shellenberger  and Ryan Crandall would lead the field to green.  The field would have a complete restart as Doug McLachlan would slide off the backstretch.  The restart would show Tim Wilber jumping out to an early lead with Shellenberger in 2^nd.  A lap 4 yellow for Jarrett Rendel slowing in turn 4 with a flat tire, would bring the field under caution.  Wilber would lead at the restart green, while 3^rd starting, and current point leader, Tommy Beezley would work his way past Shellenberger for 2^nd.   Several single car spins would bring the field under caution.  Wilber would get to the checkered flag first ahead of Beezley.  Shellenberger, Jake Rendel and Josh Lolmaugh would round out the top 5.  Wilber, Shellenberger and Tommy Beezley would capture the heat races.  Eric Swan would capture the B main.

  The Sportsman would hit the 3/8 mile next for there feature event with Jake Rendel and Dwayne Feltner leading the field to green.  Rendel would jump to an early lead, with Feltner settling into 2^nd.  A lap 2 yellow would fly for a Kevin Gutting spin.  Gutting, making his first 2012 start, would continue.  Tim Wilber, who started 12^th on the grid, would move around Jarrett Rendel on the restart and settle into 3^rd behind Rendel and Feltner.  Wilber, Rendel and Feltner are all locked into a close season long points battle, but on this night, the battle would be for the feature win.  A couple minor incidents would slow the field, but Jake Rendel would capture the feature win over Wilber.  Jarrett Rendel, Fred VanEvey and Steve Langdon would round out the top 5.  Feltner, who was running the top groove in 2^nd place, would slip off the banking with 3 to go and kept his momentum going, however, by that time the field had driven by with Feltner finishing 7^th.  Feltner and Fred VanEvey would capture the heat races.

  The Winged Sprint Car feature would roll off next with Nic Rogers and Mike Burns leading the field to green.  Contact on the first lap would collect the cars of Ken Mackey and Len Robison.  Mackey's car would suffer significant damage and retire for the night.  On the restart, Rogers would jump to the early lead.  Rogers would lead the first 3 circuits until 3^rd starting Kevin Atkins would get by for the lead.  Current point leader, and 7^th starting Doug Zimmerman, would get by Atkins when the pair worked thru lapped traffic.  Zimmerman would extend his lead while the fight would be for the runner up position as Trey Smith had engaged in the battle with Atkins.  Smith would get by for 2^nd.  The yellow would fly on lap 24 setting up a one lap shoot out for the win.  Zimmerman would go on to the win over Smith.  Atkins, Rogers, and Max Stambaugh would round out the top 5.  Heat wins went to Rogers, Atkins and Tim Evilsizer.  Chris Jones would capture the B main, driving the yellow 10J to his first Butler Motor Speedway checkered flag.

  The Street Stocks would be the final feature race of the night with Jarrett Rendel and Charles Smith leading the field to green.  Rendel would jump to the early lead, piloting the car normally driven by his dad Bob Rendel.  3^rd starting Kevin Butters would waste little time, moving past Rendel on lap 2.  A lap 4 yellow would fly when Sheryll Dishaw would lose an engine and spin.  Todd Smith would get into the oil and make hard front end contact with Dishaw.  Fortunately, both drivers were ok, but, they would both be done for the night.  Butters would continue to lead over Rendel, Terry Milliman, Chris Garrett and Jake Rendel.  A lap 13 yellow would slow the field when Jake Rendel and Jeff Hinkley, Jr would get together, resulting in flat tires on both cars.  Both cars would go pitside to get tires changed.  Back to the green it would be Butters collecting the win over Garrett.  Jarrett Rendel, Terry Bumpus and Don Hopkins would round out the top 5.  Heat races were won by Butters, Jake Rendel, Garrett and Dallas Prater.  Kyle Kulikowski captured the B main.

  This Saturday Sep 1 the rescheduled fireworks show will take place.  The July fireworks show had to be postponed due to the burn restrictions placed on the township because of the excessive heat.  This show is always a fan favorite and is almost certain to be a packed house.  Get to the track early to secure your seats while Butler Motor Speedway lights up the sky and puts a full 4 in 1 program on the track.  If that wasn't enough, the Mini Sprints will join the full program, making it a 5 in 1 racing program, plus the fireworks program.
