still mobile at PGARA Speedway Saturday When the race the A class open was stopped In the fifth of the scheduled 10 laps four cars had to be hauled off the track and one dug its way out of the Infield It all started in the first lap when Ed Petersons No 16 threw a rod through the engine block spewing oil around the north west corner of the track Patterson slid out of control on his own oil and slammed into the north wall sending the water from his radiator streaming across the track The other drivers not know knowing ¬ ing Just what had happened con continued ¬ tinued around the track while Patterson climbed out of his car and toddled toward the in infield ¬ field As the cars bore down the backstretch toward the treach treacherous ¬ erous corner Barry Watson in No 4 was attempting to pass Larry Moorehouse on the out outside ¬ side with Bill Dagg In hot pursuit Moorehouse somehow made It between Patterson who was standing on the Inside edge of the track and the disabled car but Watson and Dagg werent so lucky I was going wide open try trying ¬ ing to pass Larry when I saw the water from Pattersons rad glistening In the sunlight I hit the brakes but they wouldnt grab because of the oil and I Iknew I was going to hit the car or the wall so I chose the wall said Watson after the race Watsons car hit the wall dead on crumpling the front end like an accordian The rivets in the cowl and roof popped the heavy steel quick change rear end snapped like a twig and Watson feared he had split the casing in one of his 95 slicks Dagg made a sliding stop against the wall but was able to mend the damage to his car In time for the next race In the fourth lap Greg Friend hit the oil and crashed head on into Patterson s car and seconds later Larry Moore Moorehouse ¬ house slid into the infield on his own At this point track manager Ted McCarthy called a halt to the fiasco He headed from the announc announcing ¬ ing booth to the scene of the crash where words unfit for human ears were emlnating from some of the drivers and pitmen Patterson apparently thought the race should have been called earlier and didnt agree with the rules of the track He was heard to say Someone is going to pay for my car We were racing before you came and well be racing after youve gone McCarthy said If youve got a protest put it in writing and 1 11 discuss It after the race Is over but right now weve got a race to run The track was then cleared and racing resumed Not to be overlooked with all the unhappy incidents was the brilliant display put on by ever popular Wild Bill Dagg Bill lapped the track In the time trials faster than any local car has ever done In the tracks history A united gasp rose from the crowd as Daggs 159 sec second ¬ ond time was announced Dagg went on to win the
