Norm Wrenn Captures Second 2010 Win at Manadnock

Winchester, NH – May 15, 2010 – With 15 cars on hand, the RF Logic / Bot-L Gas Pro Four Modifieds of New England put on a fast paced show at Manadnock Speedway this weekend. The heat races went green to checkers without any cautions with George Sherman and Robin Berghman picking up the wins

Sherman and Phil Lausier lead the pack to the green in the feature. By the end of lap one Lausier was able to tuck in line for second but was feeling pressure from behind by #25 Tyler Anderson, who was followed by Brian Vincent, Rob Richardi, Jr., and Norm Wrenn.

Back in the pack action was heating up as last place starter was putting some pressure on #00 Dave Richardi for the 9th position. By lap 9 the leaders began to catch the rear of the field and put Mark Charette and Mark Giordano down a lap. At the halfway point it was Sherman still leading Lausier, Anderson, Vincent, Wrenn, Richardi, Jr., Norton, Dan Meservey, Frank Perry, and D. Richardi.

Five laps later the first caution was thrown as Giordano went spinning. A few moments both D. Richardi and race leader, Sherman, followed in suit, but Sherman was rewarded the top spot back as he had spun after the caution was thrown. At the time of caution, Vincent was in and out of the pits, as Perry and Meservey both pulled off of the track and ended their nights.

On the restart, Richardi, Jr., had a mechanical malfunction but the field made it by successfully as he made his way to the infield. The top four of Sherman, Wrenn, Anderson and Norton battled hard for position until the second caution on lap 19 when Vincent slowed on the backstretch and then pulled into the pits.

With 10 to go on the restart, Wrenn got a good jump and was able to pass Sherman on the outside. Norton and Anderson then both looked to the outside of Sherman while the rest of the pack stayed single file. With three to go, Norton completed the pass on Sherman, and in the last turn Anderson made a hard change to do the same but came out short. It was Wrenn capturing the checkers for the second this in his second race of 2010, followed by Norton, Sherman, Anderson, and Berghman. Berghman was the recipient of a gift card to Joe’s Racing Products for finishing in the fifth position.
