VMS Motorsports

Dan Troyan, Jim Bucher, and Jeff Steenberden were on hand at Beaver Dam Raceway Saturday night.

The night started well for VMS Motorsports, with Steenbergen easily winning his heat race in the VMS Motorsports, Vari-Tech Metal Fabricating #62 Sport Mod.

Bucher was in the 1st of 3 heat races, and entering turn one lost his brakes. He still managed to drive the Homes.com, DL Home Inspections #17 to the 4th and final transfer spot.

Troyan also finished 4th in his heat race in the Homes.com, The Agency Real Estate #01.

Next up was the Sport Mod feature. Jeff Steenbergen was again the class of the field, winning his 4th straight A Main of the season, and putting the VMS Motorsports carsolidly in the Points lead with just 2 nights to go.

In the Legends A Main, Troyan broke an axle shaft on lap 2, and just drove around for the race staying out of trouble, netting a 16th place finish.

Bucher had a frustrating but promising night. He was running the VMS Motorsports, AirStream Mechanical car in the top 5 for the first half of the night before spinning on lap 12, sending him to the back of the 21 car field. He powered his way all the way back up to 8th and was attempting to pass for 7th when he lost control again and spun on lap 19 of the 20 lap feature event. No caution was thrown, and Bucher ended up being scored 17th, one lap down. It seems that the bugs, gremlins, and crashes that have plagued the 17 all season long may finally be gone, and the team can start building for a phenomenal 2011 season
