| Sawyer Finishes Fourth At Speedways - Bottoms Up EAST/WEST 100 Lap Race | ||
| Twenty-five cars showed up to compete at the Bottoms Up East/ West l00 lap race. Sawyer qualified at a 15.962 making him the fifth fastest qualifer. The top eight qualifiers were placed into a qualifying dash race that would determine their starting position for the 100 lap main event. Sawyer finished third in the qualifying race which now placed him in the second row of the main event. The main consisted of two 50 lap races with a break at the 50 lap mark. Drivers were to stay on the track and fuel cars only, no working on cars were allowed. The first 50 lap went caution free and smooth with most of the drivers holding their position. Sawyer ran third most of the race and challenged the #32 car several times pulling aside him to pass. On lap 85 Sawyer spun coming out of turn four but quickly recovered after falling back to sixth. Sawyer finished the evening's race with a respectable 4th. For a complete story read www.Latemodelracer.com | ||
| Sawyer
Takes Win on Last Lap Move May 6, 2006 |

| Robby Sawyer did
it again. He did it before people could blink an eye. In fact the
crowd stood in the grandstands to watch the finish, many with a
look of bewilderment, how does this young 21 year old do it they
asked? Sawyer is running a car owned by Scott Schweitzer to showcase
the GM crate motor. In his known last lap move he took the win only
by a few feet in the Super Street Stock main event. After winning
his heat race earlier in the evening, Sawyer started tenth in the
field. Sawyer worked his way up through the pack of cars quietly
and sometimes put the #98 three wide on the track. When a yellow
came out with two laps to go he looked as though he was going to
have to settle for second place. Then to the crowd's surprise Sawyer
took his #98 to the low groove of turns three and four and got underneath
the #32 of Nick Sylvister to take the win. For a detail story and photo of the #98 go to www.LateModelRacer.com
