Pauch Wins Career #65 in New Egypt Dual Track Event
 
New Egypt, NJ (April 19, 2008) – Billy Pauch of Frenchtown, NJ had all the answers on Saturday night as he captured the 65th win of his career at the New Egypt Speedway in the 2008 season opener. The 30 lap event, which was the second race of the new "NJ Dual Track Series," saw Pauch beat a field that boasted the best that both New Egypt and Bridgeport Speedways had to offer. 
 
"This is a great deal," stated Pauch in victory lane, "The fans get to see their favorite drivers all together 8 times during the season. It feels great winning the second leg of the series."  
 
Pauch started on the outside pole by the luck of the draw and went wire to wire for the victory,  which saw Mike Isles finish second in as many races in the series giving him the point lead. Keith Hoffman, who was fast during the early stages of the race, settled for third. Billy Pauch Jr. came from his tenth starting spot to finish a fine fourth and Wade Hendrickson had a nice run coming up from the middle of the pack to grab fifth. 
 
Willie Osmun of Bloomsbury, NJ picked up right where he left off in 2007. The defending champ charged to the front quickly and then held off a late race challenge from young hotshoe Clay Butler to claim the victory in the 20 lap A1 Racing Products Sportsman feature. John McClelland grabbed second in the final laps with Butler coming home in third. First timer Ryan Forte was an impressive fourth while last year's opening night winner Mike Howardson rounded out the top five.  
 
Todd Cray of Trenton, NJ claimed his fifth career feature win in the 15 lap Super Stock feature event. Cray held off the persistent challenges from runner-up Kory Fleming.  Bill Liedtka finished third followed by defending champ George Quinlan and Steve Davis. 
 
In the 2008 opener of the Advantage Financial/Cradle Rock Developers Rookie Sportsman series, Gabe Fox, a crew member for Modified standout Tim Tanner, Jr. won the 8 lap feature event. Bobby Sandt Jr. was second followed by Kevin Vaclavicek in third. 
 
Ed Hughes jumped behind the wheel of the Miscoski Racing SS Sprint for the first time and took it to victory lane. Race long leader John Romano finished in the runnerup slot ahead of Bryan Kuhl, Rick Cozze and Dan Biggs. The 15 lap Outlaw Stock Feature event saw Rich Reider take his first ever victory at NES.
