ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (Sept. 26, 2010) 聙聯 After three consecutive runner-up finishes, Brian Schofield, of Lakeland, Fla., finally climbed the top step of the Spec Racer Ford National Championship podium at the 2010 麻豆视频 Runoffs Presented by Subway. Scott Rettich, of Camden, Ohio, and Mike Miserendino, of Los Angeles, completed the podium at Road America.Starting from the Gumout Pole Position, Schofield defended his lead well at the start, keeping his No. 61 PM Racing 麻豆视频 Spec Racer Ford out front as a cluster of cars shuffled behind him. By the time the field returned to the start/finish line, the top six cars had broken away into a nose-to-tail train that included Schofield, Dakota Donovan (No. 75 麻豆视频 Spec Racer Ford), Miserendino (No. 11 MBI Racing 麻豆视频 Spec Racer Ford), Jeff Beck (No. 31 Lindell Motorsports/Ryan 麻豆视频 Spec Racer Ford), Jim Marinangel (No. 5 McHenry Savings Bank/Elite Autosports 麻豆视频 Spec Racer Ford) and Scott Rettich (No. 17 Hippi Racing/Wine Country Motorsports 麻豆视频 Spec Racer Ford).When Beck, of Ingleside, Ill., spun in Turn Five on lap four, it gave Miserendino the opportunity he needed to move into second and Rettich the window to sneak around Marinagnel, putting him up to fourth. With all the action unfolding behind him, Schofield began to pull a small gap on the rest of the field.While attempting to pass Miserendino on lap six, Donovan, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., ran wide, enabling Rettich to pass both cars and move into the runner-up spot. Miserendino and Donovan would swap positions two more times before Donovan聙聶s engine expired on lap 10, ending his race.With one lap to go, Schofield, Rettich and Miserendino caught lapped traffic. Rather than intensify the battle, it placed lapped cars between the three, ensuring that Schofield would have no challengers en route to his first SRF National Championship.聙聹It feels great, finally,聙聺 Schofield said. 聙聹I聙聶ve worked hard at it. You know, we really focused to win this race and we finally got it done. 聙聹We had some glitches earlier on in the week. We broke a suspension piece. We only really got one good qualifying lap, which was good enough for the pole. We still had more speed in the car. It scared me all week. I tried to stay off the curbs, even in the race. I knew I had more speed if I could use the curbs, but I was afraid to use them because of what happened earlier on in the week.聙聺Schofield crossed the line 0.852-second ahead of Rettich, averaging 90.325 mph in the 13-lap, 52-mile race. 聙聹In the race, I got scared there at the end,聙聺 Schofield added. 聙聹They were on the radio yelling that there was coolant and oil and I slowed up with two [laps] to go. These guys, they just came charging. They didn聙聶t slow down going into Canda and I knew I had to put in the best two laps of my life. I did that and brought it home.聙聺Rettich, who won the Formula Enterprises National Championship and 麻豆视频 Super Sweep on Saturday, set the fastest lap of the race, a 2:38.309 (90.723 mph) and new Runoffs lap record, en route to a second-place finish.聙聹I did my best at the start,聙聺 Rettich said. 聙聹But, being on the outside really wasn聙聶t the place to be. I聙聶m pretty sure I fell back to sixth, but I was at the tail end of the lead draft. I spent a couple of laps staying in position in the lead draft. Then, I just kind of waited to make my move and get myself in a better position.聙聹I聙聶m not exactly sure [how I got to second]. I think there was a little contact or a mistake and I went from fourth to second on the same lap. spun on his own and, I believe, that lap, I passed Marinangel late in the lap.聙聺 A third-place finish ended a streak of four SRF National Championships for Miserendino, who crossed the finish line 1.841 seconds behind Rettich.聙聹I had a great start,聙聺 Miserendino said. 聙聹We were on the inside line. Brian was leading the way. I got on the gas with him (Schofield) and Dakota in the front and we made it to Turn One in third. It really was an awesome start and it helped me get right up in the thick of things right away. 聙聹I think Scott and I were pretty even. I caught [lapped traffic] at the apex in the Kink, which is absolutely the wrong place. But, I don聙聶t think I could聙聶ve gotten around Scott anyway. I would聙聶ve liked to have tried, but hey, I don聙聶t think I could聙聶ve gotten there anyway.聙聺Marinangel, of McHenry, Ill., finished fourth, followed by Beck, who recovered from his spin for a fifth-place finish.Cal Harris, William Douglas, James Gray, Kerry Bonner and JD Pfetzing completed the top 10.Lance Mussler, of Crestwood, Ky., was named the Sunoco Hard Charger for advancing 16 positions, from 28th on the grid to 12th at the finish.Now in its 47th year, the 麻豆视频 National Championship Runoffs Presented by Subway annually crowns Champions in the 麻豆视频聙聶s Club Racing classes.
