Broderick Now A Two Time 360 Winner

Broderick Now A Two Time 360 Winner

 

By Toby LaGrange / LaGrange Motorsports Media

 

Brookfield, CT - The past few weeks have been a time that young Bubba Broderick will never forget. In that time period the defending Lucas Oil ASCS Patriot Region Rookie of the Year walked away from what could be labeled as the tours wreck of the year, solidified a top five championship run and graced victory lane – twice.

 

Coming into the July 11th program at the Genesee Speedway, Broderick had yet to reach victory lane in the 360 sprint car ranks. Following a rain out at the Woodhull Raceway, the Broderick team pulled into the Genesee pit area for the first time this season. After winning his heat race from the sixth position and set his sights on the feature event. Bubba had little trouble in the feature, taking the lead on lap two and cruising home to his first career full sized sprint car win.

 

Broderick's success continued on a couple of weeks later. The 19 year old Connecticut driver traveled to the Arcade International Raceway for a tough ASCS battle on July 24th. In short it was a great night for the team.

 

They barely made it to the event following a horrible wreck at the Cornwall Motor Speedway in Ontario less than a week earlier. Following that devastating flip the team worked feverishly to make it to Arcade on time. Once there they started winning right out of the hauler. Broderick claimed his heat race win from the pole, which placed him third on the A-Main starting grid. Bubba conquered the field, taking the feature event by six seconds.

 

"I can't believe we finally did it," stated Broderick in Victory Lane. "We knew we were getting close and it was just a matter of time."

 

Broderick would continue: "I thought someone was right there. I have a new blower in my helmet and the motor makes it seem like someone is always on the inside. After what happened at Cornwall I had to put that out of my mind though."

 

Since his initial ASCS conquest, the Broderick team has participated in events at the Black Rock Speedway and Fulton Speedway. At Black Rock on August 7th Broderick would finish 9th in the A-Main after starting 18th. The following night at Fulton the team started on the pole and would finish sixth.

 

The Broderick Team now sits fourth in the season long Lucas Oil, ASCS Patriot Sprints point standings. They finished eighth in the A-Verdi King of Central New York standings.

 

Sponsorship will come from Northeast Carpet, Brownie's Towing, CIAO Water, Design Maintenance, Arbitell Convenience Stores, Four Winds Farm, Fyne Line Construction, Kortko Insurance, Lasco Roofing, , Precision Automotive and 20/20 Air.

Bubba Update - Fulton Speedway, August 8, 2009

ASCS Patriots, Fulton Speedway, Fulton, NY

Bubba started on the pole and led the race for the first five laps. He was trying to find the fast line and moved up into the top groove and found out that it was not the fastest way around the track. But overall it was a good night closing the gap in the season points race over the leaders, sitting in 4th place overall in the ASCS Patriot Series.
 
Bubba and the team will head up to Canada to the Oshweeken Speedway. - Chris

Bubba Update - Blackrock Speedway

Black Rock Speedway,Dundee, NY
 
Heat
Started 8th
Finished 6th
 
B Main
Started 9th
Finished 2nd
 
Feature
Started 18th
Finished 9th
 
It was a long night at Blackrock with a 34 car field it is luck of the draw for a good starting position. Bubba had his hands full starting from the back in his heavily competitive heat race and missed getting into one of the 3 transfer spots. Having to make it into the feature from one of the B mains Bubba drove from the back to finish in the 2nd place to secure his spot in the feature. A couple of early cautions helped Bubba move toward the front but the last 17 laps were caution free and could only move up to the 9th position before the checkers flew for Trevor Lewis.
 
Bubba and the team are back on the road this morning heading up to Fulton Speedway for the second half of the ASCS Patriot Sprint weekend.
 
Will keep you updated. - Chris
