Reed, Sebetto, Wright take Fremont cash 

FREMONT, Ohio (June 12, 2004) - Byron Reed picked up his first feature win of the season, leading all 30 laps at Fremont Speedway in the 410 feature Saturday. Fremont's Brian Sebetto had a clean-sweep of the 305 sprints, winning his heat, the Computer Man Dash and the 25-lap feature. Fostoria's Rex Wright scored his first feature win of the season in the Coors Light Dirt Trucks.

Reed, who started on the pole, jumped into the early lead and survived several yellows and a red (for Andrew Palker who was unhurt), to score his eighth career Fremont victory on Crown Battery Night. 

"I was able to roll through the ruts in turn two and keep the car from getting unhooked," said Reed, Fremont's 2003 track champion. "We've struggled here this year, so we needed this. The track was lightening fast, so it's a little easier when you start up front."
Reed missed out on a $1,000 bonus offered by Crown Battery to the feature winner if he had a Crown Battery sticker on his car.

"I looked all over for a sticker when we got here. I have to thank Crown Battery for all they do... they are great race sponsors," said Reed beside his Reebar Diecasting sprinter.

Behind Reed was perennail runner-up Mike Linder, current point leader John Ivy, Dean Jacobs and fast qualifier Rob Chaney.

Sebetto took the lead from Willie Keean early in the 305 sprint feature and held off Brian Smith late in the race to pick up his third career feature at Fremont.

Sebetto picked up a $500 bonus from Crown Battery for having one of their stickers on the car, for a total payday of $1,000 for his win.

"I lost the rigth front torsion arm with about 10 laps to go and it was a bear to handle. I knew I had to work hard when I looked on the scoreboard and saw the 20 car behind me.... Brian is tough to beat," said Sebetto beside his Fort Ball Pizza Palace/Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken sprinter. "I have to thank the Mominees for giving me such a great race car. They give me everything I want to go racing with."

Behind Sebetto at the finish were Smith, Bill Kraylek, Jamie Miller, up from 20th, and Roger Shammo, who came from the back after an early race spin.

Rex Wright held off several challenges by veteran Art Ball and Brian Arnold to score his second career Fremont victory in the Coors Light Dirt Trucks.

"That was a lot of fun. Art and I raced side by side for a lot of laps. Art has more wins here than anyone, so you can't pull anything on him. We raced each other clean and tough," said Wright.

Behind Wright, who earned a $500 bonus for having a Crown Battery sticker on his truck, were Ball, Dan Roepke, Bobby Davis and Andy Maynard.
