MASGA RESULTS

Numidia, Pa – Numidia Dragway hosted race No.5 and 6 for the Mid Atlantic Super Gas Association (MASGA) on July 31^st & August 1^st. Nineteen cars took shots at the “R&J Control” #1 qualifier award but, in the end it was George Donhauser’s 1979 Arrow laying down a perfect 9.900. Following Donhauser was Michael Lauria, Iggie Boicesco, recent winner Bob Henry and Matt Schurman.

As eliminations got underway it would be the 2007 & 2008 MASGA Champion Iggie “Mr. Numidia” Boicesco standing in victory lane at the end of the afternoon. The retired teacher from Warminster, Pa started his drive to the winner circle with victories over Pete “Lucky” Luciano and Tom Goldman before lining up against Shawn Harp’s beautiful 1957 Chevy. The winner of this match-up would receive a bye-run to the finals. In a close battle Boicesco took a small starting line advantage .009 to .019 over Harp and with that advantage Boicesco was able to force Harp to break-out with a 9.909 to 9.893 victory and a free trip to the final.

On the other side of the ladder was Mike Lauria and his 1968 Chevy Camaro. Lauria, who hails from Philadelphia, Pa made his march to the final with victory’s over last years champ Earl Nichols Jr., Gary Laird and received a bye-run in the third round to match up against Derek Clark’s Olds Cutlass in the semi’s. In the semi’s Clark pushed the envelope and red-lighted automatically handing the win the Lauria who ran it out to a 9.909. Lauria was appearing in his first final of the year while Boicesco already has a victory to his credit in 2010.

At the flash of the green both drivers were just about even with Boicesco getting a slight .012 to .017 lead. As they approached the stripe, Lauria tried to make up the difference but came up just short with a 9.915 to Iggie’s winning 9.916. Semi-finalist Clark received the “Rockaway Racing” Best Package award for his victory over Bob Henry in the first round.

Race No. 6 was to be held on Sunday but, as in the case at Maple Grove on Saturday, Mother Nature had other plans and forced officials to pull the plug early in the morning.

The next race on the schedule is the grand daddy of them all “The Annual Uncle Buck Pig Roast” at Cecil County Dragway in Rising Sun, Maryland Aug 14^th & 15^th. This will be a great test and tune for any 9.90 Super Gas guys who want to test before the following weekends LODRS divisional race also held at Cecil County. Gates will open at 8am on both days and time shots will start around 9am with the BBQ following eliminations on Saturday Night.
