Dan Fitzgerald "Got Demo?"
Credit: Pahrump Valley Speedway
Got dirt? Got demo? Well Dan Fitzgerald has the answer. Family, friends and fans will all agree it's Got Dirt?, which is displayed on Fitzgeralds 87N IMCA modified.
The title GOT DEMO?, chosen by Dan himself, will become a reality on September 25, 2010. Dan Fitzgerald is a very well known IMCA modified driver throughout the racing community.
His seat time includes sand drags, street stocks and most recently his 600th career start behind the wheel of his modified.
Dan is a four time western region champion with 14 track championships under his belt, along with 177 wins in 636 starts. But one still has to question the likes of GOT DEMO?.
Dan will add one more statistic to his racing resume by joining up with Gary Wyatt and JC Motorsports racing and demolition derby team. In doing so, Dan will take part in his very first demolition derby at Pahrump Valley Speedway in Wyatts 1974 Chevy stationwagon.
We asked Dan about his demo debut and he replied, "I'm really nervous but very excited since its something I've never done before. I don't have a strategy for this. I always had a strategy when I got out on a circle track, that's to keep the front bumber on my car. Now I'm going to purposely tear up my equipment and this is something I'm not use to. I'll be out of my realm."
Dan has a huge fan base, but none more so than his mom, Judy, who is also excited. She encourages him to "go for it". Dan said, "my fans will think I'm crazy, but I'm sure some will think It's funny." Dan continued on to say, "when I was asked by Gary to run one of his cars, my brain said yes, but my body said no. For me, this stems from watching and talking to long time fellow racer Levi Kiefer which ran D-Derbies." Levi Kiefer told me, " if you're not careful out there, you're going to be really sore the next day". So for one night you yourself can ask Dan, GOT DEMO?

Morse wins 75-lap Lucas Oil Modified Series feature at the Bullring
Tim Morse of Burbank, Calif., led all 75 laps to win the double-points Lucas Oil Modified Series feature at the Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Dylan Kwasniewski of Las Vegas finished second and Jim Mardis finished third. The six-lap, six-car Lucas Oil Modified Dash was won by Jimmy Dickerson.
In NASCAR Whelen All-American Series action, Dustin Ash won the 40-lap MetroPCS Super Late Model feature. Casey Kingsland passed early-race leader Spencer Gallagher on the fifth lap of the 40-lap feature. Meanwhile, Dustin Ash was racing up through the pack, trying to reel in the leader. With just 10 laps remaining, Ash made his move to the inside and passed Kingsland. Just two laps later, Kingsland clipped the wall on the back straightaway and spun, bringing out the caution flag. The late-race restart posed no problem for Ash, who went on to score the win ahead of Bear Rzesnowiecky and Nick Halen. Scott Gafforini and Steve Anderson completed the top five. MetroPCS Super Late Model qualifying heats were won by Rzesnowiecky and Halen.
Pete Meyer won his fourth NASCAR Bomber feature of the 2010 campaign. Wade Pearson finished second and Brett Empey was third. Bomber heat races were won by Meyer and Shane Borkowski.

Jeremiah Wagner survived a three-car, three-wide run for the lead in Turn 3 on the final lap to score a thrilling Legend Cars victory. Mike Abbate finished a close second and Robert D'Ambra was third. The race was punctuated with spins, crashes and caution periods and was shortened due to the imposed time limit.
Vincent Raucci Jr. scored his first-ever Bandolero Bandit feature. Camron Stafford finished second and Chris Trickle battled his way back up to third place after making contact with another car and spinning out of the lead.
