Marshfield Declares Last SLM
Feature a Tie!!
By Mary Langreck |
June 8, 2005; Marshfield, WI: - Marshfield Super Speedway would like to apologize to Jeff
Weinfurter, his race team, the Weinfurter family, race fans and sponsors for a call made
during the feature race Saturday, June 4th. The call during the race had been made to give
Weinfurter the pick a lane flag, which after reviewing the race on video tape was proven
to be the wrong call on the part of speedway officials and Weinfurter should not have been
penalized. Speedway officials reversed the decision awarding a tie to Weinfurter and Chris
Weinkauf.
A correction of a published photo of Weinfurter and Weinkauf that read the two were
battling for the lead was also an error as the photo was taken under caution.
Effective immediately, the pick a lane flag will no longer be used at the Speedway as it
has been deemed too much of a judgment decision in its use. Drivers will be allowed to run
their race without interference of speedway officials.
