THE BANNER Sullivan Spins A 65 Yam SPORTS Wednesday. May 29. 1985 5-A bly in view of about 100,000 fans around the first and second turns of the track, Sullivan began a spin that continued for about a quarter of a mile. Miraculously, he avoided the wall and other cars and continued to his pit to replace four heavily frayed tires. Andretti swung low to avoid Sullivan, and both drivers continued 1-2 in the race.

Sullivan told reporters that Andretti took his line and they were side by side. All four of Sullivan's tires went BCHS Names MVP's In Spring Sports Most Valuable Players in various spring sports were named Tuesday, May 28, at Brownstown Central High School.

He had been in desperate pursuit of veteran driver Mario Andretti for half the rave when he lost control a split second after passing the former Grand Prix champion on die 120th lap on the 2Vj-mile oval track at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Possi Owl Golfers On The Seymour High School varsity golf team tied with Paoli for first place in the golf sectional tournament Saturday, May 25, at Otis Park in Bedford, but the Owls lost on the fifth -mail score to finish second in team standings. The top three teams advance to the regional play Saturday, June 1, at Bedford. The Owls and Rams battled to a 335 tie after 18 holes. Other team scores were Bedford-North Lawrence 337, Washington 350, Bloomington South 351, Southridge 358, Brown County 359, Washington Catholic 360, Bloomington North 366, Shoals 372, North Davies 376, Jasper 377, Spring Valley 388, North East DuBois 389, Forest Park 390, Mitchell 412, Edgewood 422, and Brownstown Central 432.

Individual scores for Seymour were Mark Ellis, 41-4081; Craig Elmore, 41-4283; Scott Cooper, 43-4285; Godsey Takes Ray Godsey of Bedford won the 40-lap late-model feature race Saturday night, May 25, at the Brownstown Speedway. The win was worth $1,200 to Godsey and car owner Fred King. It was Godsey' second feature win of the year at the quarter-mile track. Last week's feature winner Dusty Chapman led the first seven laps of the race, with Godsey and Steve Barnett hanging right with him. Godsey took the top spot away from Chapman on the eighth lap.

A yellow flag on the 13th lap slowed the action for awhile. Once the race resumed Paul Shafer, who had started 15th in the 17-car field, moved into fourth by lap 14. Godsey, Chapman, Barnett, and Shafer were running side-by-side and bumper-to-bumper. Barnett then suddenly pulled out of the race on the 27th lap, leaving a three-car battle. Shafer moved into second on the same lap.

Shafer was challenging Godsey until Gerald Dixon spun in front of Godsey. Fortunately for Godsey, Dixon stopped on the track. JThat. benefitted Godsey because Shafer had passed him. But track rules go back to the last scored lap, which meant that Godsey had his lead back.

On the last lap Shafer pulled even with Godsey going down the back stretch. But Shafer couldn't get the bite on the track coming out of the corner and Godsey edged him for the win. Chapman was third, with Ulionois driver Roger Long finishing fourth and Lee Fleetwood of Indianapolis fifth. Chapman was the top qualifier at 15.157 seconds. Godsey took the dash, while heat races were captured by Brian Asbury, Larry Taylor, Shafer and Don Hobbs.

Shafer won the ever at Indianapolis for the 35-year-old bachelor. Averaging 152.982 mph for the win, Sullivan and his team received a check in the amount of $507,662 at the Monday evening, May 27, victory banquet. Andretti, winner in 1969, who led more than half of the 200 laps, told reporters, "Second is nothing here, it's nothing anywhere. At this stage of my career nothing satisfies like winning." Colombian Roberto Guerrero, second as a rookie in 1984, finished only llVi seconds behind Sullivan in third place. He was the only other driver to finish on the same lap as Sullivan and Andretti.

Al Unser Sr. was fourth, one lap down. He may have figured much stronger in the final outcome had he not been penalized one lap earlier in the race for running over his own air hose in the ph. When the final standings were released Monday, three-time winner Johnny Rutherford, who finished fifth, was set back to sixth because of what officials said was a yellow-light violation. Johnny Parsons was moved up to fifth, and rookie Arie Luyendyk was placed seventh.

On lap 124, rookie Rich Vogler got. out of the groove trying to pass and smacked solidly into the first-turn cement. He was taken by helicopter to Methodist Hospital, where he was treated for a concussion and two cuts above his eyelid. Trying to avoid the accident, 1983 winner Tom Sneva spun into the wall. A bouncing tire came down inches from his cockpit as he escaped unscathed.

The race had five leaders, Sullivan (68 laps), Andretti (107), Emerson Fittipaldi (10), Bobby Rahal (14), and Scott Brayton (1). At $450 per lap, Andretti pocketed $48,150 in prize prize money. When the 400,000 or so race fans return to the Speedway next year, they will probably see some changes. Joe Cloutier, president of the Speedway, has admitted that the old garage area will be torn down and replaced with a modern structure. There was also a clamor throughout the day Sunday to slow down the cars at the Speedway.

CART, which sanctions every race except the Indy 500, has given new rules for 1986 to Cloutier for his consideration. The '86 formula for CART and the Speedway, still sanctioned by USAC, is expected to be announced in a few weeks. There has been talk of limiting the ground effects next year by making smooth-bottom cars mandatory. There were those at the track Sunday who say the designers already have flat-bottom cars on the drawing boards which will go every bit as fast as the 1985 models. Sommers Fires Ace At Hickory Hills Brownstown Central High School athletic director Louis Sommers fired a hole-in-one Thursday, May 23, at Hickory Hills Golf Club south of Brownstown.
