Comments about 1,800 PSI 1.5 GPM Electric Pressure Washer:
Take your time, it will clean some bad stuff. Be sure and set up according to instructions.I used it the first day (less than 24 hrs after ordering) and it did what it should. I paid more for the Ncor pump model because I thought it would be a better pump. I wish I had been more attentive to the lack of storage or some kind of reel for the hose and power cord.

Comments about 1,800 PSI 1.5 GPM Electric Pressure Washer:
This light-weight, easy to use pressure washer is perfect for the homeowner. It produces enough pressure to clean composite decks, siding on house and other projects. By changing your Distance from the spray nozzle to the object being cleaned easily adjusts the pressure allowing flexibility of use.

Comments about 1,800 PSI 1.5 GPM Electric Pressure Washer:
The product was easy to assemble. And I'm sure it worked as intended. However, I found that even at 1800 PSI, my garden hose nozzle had a more powerful stream. The return process was flawless and convenient and I would not hesitate to buy other products from this company.

At first a little leaky, but once everything tightened up it was great and not a drop. The quick connect supplied was on the cheat side so I replaced it with a brass fitting one.

These go nicely in my log cabin home. They are versatile and are a perfect size. I use them for end tables and can use them for side tables when I have company. The wood is beautiful but since it's not sealed, it shows every spot of moisture and dries that way. I use Scott's Liquid Gold for a protectant and may eventually seal them with something permanent.

We just received these as a Christmas gift and we love them. Our house is 100 years old and small and we don't have a lot of space for books, plants, etc. These tables are perfect in that you can pull them out when needed and store them when you don't. The rustic look fits perfect with our house and I can't wait to put them to use. I disagree with the reviewer from Vermont - they mention the wood tops are terrible and I disagree. It's reclaimed wood! It says so in the product description. The rough edges and different wood types are what make them unique and different. This is not an Ikea table! Also, the Vermont reviewer says they are very heavy. The product description says they are made with steel. Steel is heavy, and that's what makes them sturdy and solid. If you buy these tables you will not be disappointed!
I sanded them down lightly and put on two coats of polyurethane and now I love them.
These tables supply enough table space for a meat platter and grilling accessories
And possibly a beer or drink while you are grilling out......our grill is electric and small and has no side trays on it. Also, they are the perfect height. Thank you so much for this wonderful product bat you offer!

Best Uses
The wood tops are terrible- nearly peeling off in splintery layers. The finish is not smooth, one doesn't look finished at all. It looks like it was sanded and never sealed. One top has rectangular marks that look like something sat on the wood while the rest of it darkened in the sun. I like rustic furniture, but these are a sad excuse for rustic. They look as if the wood was found in a garbage dump and attached to a metal frame without any thought to craftsmanship or skill.

CONCORD, N.C. – The K80 Comer and Yamaha KT100 engines will complete the WKA Mazda / Bridgestone Manufacturers Cup engine tagging process that has progressed throughout the second half of the 2012 Man Cup season.
All K80 Comers and KT100s will need to be tagged prior to qualifying rounds at the Sept. 14-16 McLaughlin Motorsports Grand Nationals at New Castle (Ind.) Motorsports Park.
K80 engines will be tagged from muffler bolt to shroud bolt (see photos).
Yamaha engines will be tagged from the left-front head bolt to left-front ignition cover bolt (see photos).
All bolts and nuts must be drilled with a minimum 1/16" hole diameter hole -- 3/32" is preferred for ease of installation.
These are the final two engines that need to be tagged. Beginning at New Castle, all class's engines (KPV, all TaG, Leopard, Cadet and Yamaha) will need to be tagged prior to qualifying.
We encourage everyone to properly prepare your engines before arriving at the next event. Drilling hardware at the track can prove difficult.
No one will be able to qualify unless the engine tags are in place and the proper paperwork has been completed. Forms will be provided at registration.
Direct questions to WKA at 704-455-1606.

The March 1 strategic planning session was the idea of the board's new District 2 commissioner, Jonathan Pitts, and was facilitated by Laura Mathis and her team, Courtney Verdier and Denise Brookins from the Middle Georgia Regional Commission.
All board members attended the meeting with the exception of Commissioner Larry Childs, who Pitts said called a few minutes before the session with a last-minute conflict.
Pitts began the session stating he would like the board to have a plan.
Hearing from department heads was first on the agenda, and Water Superintendent Freddie Wiggins spoke first. He said a few months ago Pitts sent him a letter asking for the goals of the water department.

April 7, 2012 (OCALA, Fla.) - Heading south to the RaceComplex facility in Fort Myers, Florida, Ocala Gran Prix would look to build upon their 2012 results as the Florida Karting Championship Series (FKCS) reached its midway point. Proving to be one of the most dominant teams in North America, Ocala Gran Prix (OGP) scored ten victories and 21 podiums in the World Karting Association (WKA) sanctioned series.
"It was another great weekend of results," explained Nate Grindell, Ocala Gran Prix Team Manager. "We have shown speed in all classes and it is great to have drivers win and podium all across the board. We will look to continue this throughout 2012."
Taking home three wins each were senior driver Nick Neri and sportsman pilot Mathias Ramirez. While Neri continued to dominate the older age classes, the multi-time champion stood atop the podium in Rotax Senior, TaG Senior as well as the Open Shifter class where he utilized a Stock Moto package. While Neri was at the front, action was fierce behind him in the Rotax division as Ocala Gran Prix drivers occupied five of the first eight positions. With a sweep of the podium, Andrew Evans and Jonathon Kotyk would cross the stripe in the second and third position respectively while Annie Hayden would come home fifth and Brandon Slayer in eighth.
All five drivers would be back on track Sunday in the multi-engine platform TaG division but their results remained similar. With Neri taking the win, the podium would remain unchanged, as Evans would come home second and Kotyk in third. Hayden would remain consistent adding another fifth place result while Slayer improved to cross the line in sixth.
Young Tony Kart pilot Mathias Ramirez would be on a tear in Fort Myers as he took three victories in his four classes of competition. Standing atop the podium in Rotax Mini Max, TaG Cadet and Yamaha Junior Sportsman, Ramirez only falter would be in the Cadet Junior Sportsman category where he would cross the line in the fifth position. Joining Ramirez on the podium in the Mini Max division would be Olivier Bellanger with a solid second place result. Competing in a pair of classes on Saturday, Bellanger would also score a top ten result in the TaG Cadet class coming home tenth.
Oliver Askew continued his winning ways in the junior ranks as the Team USA Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals member would score a pair of victories. Taking the top spot in the TaG Junior division on Saturday, Askew swept Sunday's Rotax Junior class by taking the pole position, heat race win and main event victory in dominating fashion. Joining Askew on the podium on Sunday were Ocala Gran Prix pilots Alex Hornborg, who drove a smart and consistent race to come home second and Brian Lockwood in third for an OGP podium sweep. Adding to his second place result, Hornborg would also score a solid top five finish in TaG Junior as he garnered a fourth place finish while Lockwood would claim the seventh position.
Ocala's Dylan Gennaro would have one of his best FKCS weekends of his career as the talented youngster begins to come into his own. Competing in three classes, Gennaro would run inside the top-ten consistently throughout the race weekend scoring a fourth place result in Yamaha Junior Sportsman, sixth in Rotax Micro Max and eighth in Cadet Junior Sportsman. Jake Knepper would follow Gennaro across the line in the Micro Max division to come home seventh and would claim an 11th place result in the Cadet Junior Sportsman category. Looking forward to the next event, both drivers will look to build upon the momentum gained in Fort Myers.
World Karting Association Manufacturer's Cup winner Ashley Rogero showed why she is one of the best junior drivers in the country by scoring the KPP Junior and Yamaha Junior race wins. Looking to score regional points to transfer to her national karting campaign, Rogero would be smart in her race tactics taking the lead on the final few circuits of both main events to stand on the top podium step.
The oldest drivers of the series would have strong result at the RaceComplex facility as Jason Heffner, John Dalton and Jerry Brown would do battle. TaG Masters would see Heffner score a podium result with a second place finish while Dalton would cross the line in fourth. Remaining consistent in Rotax Masters, Heffner would once again claim the second podium position, as Dalton would join him on the podium in third. Adding another podium to his resume, Dalton would claim the second position when the checkered flag flew at the end of the TaG Heavy main event. 50-year-old Jerry Brown would battle hard all weekend long coming home fourth in Rotax Masters and seventh in TaG Heavy.
Ocala Gran Prix will enjoy one weekend off before returning to their home facility for the second round of the North Florida Rotax Max Challenge program.

My body is failing me.
It fails me every time I turn on the water to wash dishes. It fails me every time I pour a glass of iced tea. Its not pretty.
Im getting old.
Its inevitable and happens to all of us. It doesnt happen all of a sudden.
No, its more of a gradual thing, happening little by little over time, and during moments when you least expect it.
I remember the first time my body failed me.
I was 32. Young still. No gray hair. No hitch in my step.
I could still hit, drain threes and throw a baseball harder than just about anybody.
I never could run very fast though, but I could hit.
I had caved to pressure and agreed to play slow pitch softball.
Slow pitch softball is the worst sport ever invented. Its what you get when you combine baseball and beer. The game was made for fat old men, and I was not a fat old man.
Not yet.
Im standing at the plate and remembering how I used to hit in high school.
I see the pitch I could see then too. The pitch is inside and I turn on it.
When you turn on something, and subsequently hit it on the screw, the following moment is one of surrealism.
It doesnt feel like you even touched the ball, but it shoots off your bat like something was chasing it.
I drilled it ... like J.R. Ewing looking for oil. Im thinking triple at least, maybe more.
Like I said, I was never the worlds fastest runner, but if you hit a baseball hard enough, and far enough, you dont have to be.
And I just did.
I round first and head for second, and thats when my body failed me. It failed me because I believed it wouldnt.
I had faith in my legs silly me.
On my way to first, my brain completes a countdown checklist.
How we doing?
Beating steady at 94 bpm, sir. Were a little rusty but running is like riding a bike. Were good here.
Lungs? How we doing?
A little short here, feeling the burn, but loving it.
Dont forget the bad knee sir. Im giving her all shes got captain.
Keep giving legs. We need more. Im thinking triple.
Legs but sir, we dont hit triples. Were happy with doubles.
Brain not this time.
And off for second I ran...
There is this thing called rigor mortis.
Rigor mortis has a friend, and his name is Charlie Horse.
Charlie wasnt very nice to me that day. There was no warning - I would have slowed down. I should have listened, but I fell prey to vanity.
My legs said, we only hit doubles. But I got greedy.
And Charlie Horse grabbed my leg and tried to roll my foot up the back of my leg like the Wicked Witch of the East.
I also did not take another step.
I stopped whammo! right there ... about 15 feet shy of second base.
I watched as the outfielders chased down the baseball. I saw the glee in their eyes when they realized I had stopped running and would not be starting up again any time soon.
I cursed Mother Nature when some snot-nosed 25-year old with a bad tattoo and a T-shirt that said, Im the one your mother warned you about, tagged me out and said, Sorry grandpa.
I regard these same legs now as Im lying on the couch typing this.
For legs, these things make a great computer table.

Now we play the waiting game! I had my final follow up with the Cardiologist (Dr. C) today. It went great! My BP was 94/70 and pulse 88. Let me add quickly that I hate it when nurses take it on the right side and put your arm lower. I always seem to get higher readings that way. This nurse took it left arm and held it above my heart. I like when stuff is done right.! So all the tests came back 100% normal! I have a natural higher heart rate but thats ok and no worries.
Dr. C also told me to stop taking my cholesterol medication! I will be TTC in June and he said to stop it and not to worry about my cholesterol for the time being. Basically the whole year I am off of it in the grand scheme of things, does not effect me.
Dr. C said he would not be testing my cholesterol while pregnant nor would be put me on any type of medication and that includes Niacin. I trust him...after all he does specialize in cholesterol!
So just a little bit on fish oil. It seems to be contraversiaol during pregnancy if you have had or are at risk for getting Preeclampsia. Dr. C said that not to take it, of course he said to discuss this with my MFM which I will. Basically a lot of vitamins have a lot of fillers in them, which is basically nothing, so you can ACTUALLY get a perscription for fish oil. So I will take all that up with my MFM.
So what am I waiting for? Well had testing today to make sure my Vit D is back to normal as my as my thyroid and urine. Fingers crossed!!! Looks like we will be TTC in JUNE! ahhhhhhhh! Im way more excited than I am nervous and I know that I have a fabulous Interal Medicine Doc, MFM, OB and Cardiologist if I need one!
BTW cardiologist recommended the BP cuff...its said to be the best. Omron Women's Advanced Ellite 7300W. I have a wrist cuff and was advised that the wrist ones are a no no and the best ones are the actual cuff ones! So that is my next purchase!

Tulsa wins back-and-forth contest
HUNTINGTON — Unfortunately for Marshall University, it was the same story that has been told on several occasions this season.
Marshall battled back-and-forth with Tulsa in a classic Conference USA football affair Saturday, but in the end the Golden Hurricane spoiled Homecoming 2012 with a 45-38 win over the Thundering Herd in front of 27,189 fans at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
The Golden Hurricane clinched the game when Demarco Nelson batted down Rakeem Cato's fourth-down pass to Antavious Wilson in the end zone.
The loss drops Marshall to 2-4 on the season and 18-4 all-time in Homecoming contests at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. Leslie Thomas was crowned as Miss Marshall 2012 at halftime.
Marshall had its chances in the fourth quarter with its final two drives ending inside the Tulsa red zone.
Tulsa's game-winning score came on a 4-yard touchdown pass from Cody Green to Jordan James with 8:25 left after a critical third-down conversion when Green hit Keyarris Garrett on a 48-yard pass.
On the play, the Thundering Herd brought a blitz and Green connected with Garrett, who broke a pair of tackles and took the ball deep into Marshall territory. The play accounted for more than half of Green's yardage through the air. He finished 9 of 17 for 90 yards and the score to James.
The Herd trailed for the majority of the contest, but took a 38-37 lead with a 32-yard touchdown pass from Rakeem Cato to Antavious Wilson, who finished with seven catches for 123 yards.
Cato finished the contest 31 of 44 for 391 and three touchdowns with one interception.
The third quarter proved to be the Herd's undoing. Tulsa put up 20 points in the quarter, scoring in every way possible.
Tulsa broke a halftime tie on Alex Singleton's third touchdown run of the game, which capped a 13-play, 69-yard drive.
Just 16 seconds later, the lead ballooned to two scores when Marshall wide receiver Aaron Dobson fumbled a screen pass into the arms of Dwight Dobbins, who returned it 11 yards for a touchdown. The subsequent PAT snap was bad and Marshall's D.J. Hunter returned it for a two-point conversion to make it 30-19.
Marshall got back within 30-25 on Remi Watson's 1-yard touchdown run with 5:20 left, but the lead immediately jumped back to 12 points when Trey Watts returned the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a score. Watts finished with 111 yards rushing to lead a Tulsa rushing attack that went for 250 yards on 53 carries.
After trailing by two touchdowns and looking physically overmatched early, Marshall knotted the game 17-17 at halftime with a pair of touchdowns within 90 seconds of each other.
The Herd trailed 17-3 and faced a critical third-and-13 in its own territory, but Cato avoided a rush and connected with Antavious Wilson on a 28-yard pass along the sideline to continue the drive. Four plays later, Kevin Grooms took it in on a 7-yard run to cut the lead in half.
Tulsa's Marco Nelson fumbled the subsequent kickoff into the arms of Marshall's Okechukwu Okoroha, giving the Herd possession at the Golden Hurricane's 28-yard line.
After a 22-yard run by Grooms put the Herd close, a false start penalty forced a long third-and-goal situation. Once again, Cato and Wilson connected — this time on an 11-yard touchdown pass to tie the game.
It was a quick turn of events for the Herd after Tulsa had taken a 17-3 lead behind its strong rushing attack.
Tulsa came into the game with Conference USA's top rushing attack and proved why in the first half, rushing 31 times for 189 yards.
To end the half, the Golden Hurricane ran the ball on 27 of their final 30 plays.
Both Tulsa touchdown drives included just one pass in each. The first was an 8-play, 80-yard drive capped when 260-pound running back Alex Singleton busted through the line untouched on a fourth-and-1 for a 48-yard score.
The next drive also ended with Singleton going over the goal line from four yards out on a grueling 16-play, 63-yard drive that ate up 7:30 off the clock and gave Tulsa the 14-point cushion.
Marshall avoided a huge hole early when turnovers plagued the team on the second play of each of its first two possessions. Gator Hoskins fumbled following a 12-yard reception. The fumble resulted in a 37-yard field goal by Daniel Schwarz.
On the next drive, Cato was intercepted by Lowell Rose but the Marshall defense forced a three-and-out and subsequent punt to avoid the two miscues virtually unscathed.

City police seek home invadersBy Josh OGorman
STAFF WRITER | February 04,2013Rutland City Police are searching for at least four assailants who broke into an apartment and pistol whipped the occupants.
Shortly after 4 p.m. Saturday, Rutland City Police received a 911 call stating two men were fighting near 110 Maple St. Upon arrival, police said they interviewed two men and a woman who said at least four, and possibly five, people kicked in the back door to the apartment and used the threat of pepper spray to gain access to the apartment.
One of the assailants found the female resident in her bedroom and threatened her with what she described as a silver pistol, and when one of the male residents attempted to protect her, the assailants attacked him, according to police. The assailants demanded drugs and money before fleeing the apartment to an unknown location, police said.
Police said one of the male victims sustained serious injuries and was taken by ambulance to Rutland Regional Medical Center. The other male victim declined to be taken by ambulance and was driven to RRMC by a private party.
I would characterize it as an anomaly, Rutland City Police Sgt. John Sly said of the incident. We dont have many home invasions and its uncommon to have roving groups of people like this breaking into residences.
It is not known what, if anything, was taken, but the victims were able to identify two of the assailants as people they knew personally, police said.
The assailants remained at large Sunday night.

It almost time to get started on your New Years resolutions. If you are thinking about eating healthier, losing weight, starting to exercise or quitting smoking, you are not alone. Not only are these some of the most common changes people want to make, these are also among the most challenging behaviors to alter. Progressing from just starting out on Jan. 1 to successfully changing habits in the long run can be a difficult and lengthy process. Here are some simple steps you can take right away to get your New Years resolutions off to a good start.
Eat healthier
The typical American diet contains too much processed food which tends to be high in added sugars, fat and salt and not enough real food.
1. Start with five fruits and vegetables each day but aim for twice that many. Fresh is best, but frozen vegetables are a good alternative.
2. Avoid added sugars and salt, especially in prepackaged foods and snacks. This will help steer you toward food that is less processed and healthier overall.
3. Read food labels. Nutrition information can be confusing, but learning how to interpret food labels can help you make healthier choices.
Start an exercise program
Regular exercise is probably the most important thing you can do for your health. The good news is that a little activity goes a long way.
1. Dedicate time for exercise each day. At a minimum you should aim for a 30-minute walk, and you can split that up into 10- to 15-minute bouts if you need to.
2. Start slowly. Building endurance and strength takes time, and doing too much too soon can lead to injury.
3. Join a gym. You can get all the exercise you need at home, but joining a gym gives you more options for equipment, classes and personalized advice.
Lose weight
Successful weight loss requires that you change your diet and activity habits. Unfortunately, there are no shortcuts that work in the long term.
1. Reduce portion sizes. The quickest way to cut back on calories is to limit the amount of food you eat.
2. Eat healthier food. Fruits, vegetables and whole grains tend to be low in calories and can help you feel full. Limiting added sugar and fat in foods reduces calories even more.
3. Exercise every day. Research shows that people who lose weight and keep it off exercise every day for at least an hour. Work up to an hour of walking each day to be a successful loser, too.
Quitting smoking
Smoking is a difficult habit to break, owing to the addictive effects of nicotine and the social and behavioral aspects of smoking.
1. Get rid of all cigarettes (and matches and lighters) now. This means at home, work and your car. Dont forget the pack you have hidden away for an emergency.
2. Check out nicotine replacement therapy. Nicotine patches, gum and lozenges are available over-the-counter at most stores and are recommended for nearly everyone who wants to quit smoking. There are prescription drugs that can help, too.
3. Change your behavior. Smoking is ultimately a behavior that is influenced by people, places and situations you encounter. Learning why you smoke is essential to help you quit.
Your ultimate goal should be to change these habits and behaviors forever. Doing so will require that you make a series of changes that you can stick with in the long run. It wont be easy, but the health, fitness and well-being rewards are worth the effort. And focusing on making a few simple changes should get you off to a good start.

CONCORD, N.C. – The only 2012 national event for WKA's Vega Speedway Pavement program took place at the scenic Chapel Hill Raceway in the rural hills of southwest upstate New York August 10-12.
The Chapel Hill Grand Nationals offered pavement-oval racers a chance to compete on a national level at the popular one-eighth-mile banked oval, which had only run two WKA divisional series events earlier in the season with limited participation.
It's no secret the Pavement Series has struggled for entry counts in recent years. Once a strong series that routinely boasted 300, 400 and even over 500 entrants per race at times has battled through the tough economy and 105 entrants signed in at this year's Chapel Hill event.
While veteran racers of the series playfully reminisced to the newer generation of asphalt-oval competitors about times gone by and the days when getting to the track late meant you were pitting somewhere up on the hill about a half-mile from the grid, everyone in attendance enjoyed themselves and raced hard against the drivers who were there to pull onto the track with them.
This year's Chapel Hill Grand Nationals was based on a WKA divisional series program where divisional tracks would run "Super Regionals." The feature winners at these Super Regional races were guaranteed main event starting spots at Chapel Hill and awarded with kart shop gift certificates and a year's WKA membership on the house.
This attracted a faithful group of teams from Virginia, Maryland and New England to join many of the longtime New York, Pennsylvania and Midwest Speedway Pavement Series regulars.
The schedule called for Animal-powered divisions on Saturday and flatheads on Sunday. Many teams secured a flathead for Sunday's racing to support the show and there was great competition on both days.
Rain wiped out the latter rounds of Friday practice and postponed the Champ Heavy Money Race to Saturday. An extra round of practice was added to Saturday's schedule to make up for the canceled Friday rounds.
The weekend weather was unseasonably cool with many never shedding the sweatshirts and light jackets. A quick shower delayed Sunday's action before skies cleared and all the features were run. As soon as podiums wrapped up Sunday, a heavy storm drenched the facility until the rain let up, allowing teams to finish loading and pulling out.
Junior Stock
The Junior Stock Animal division kicked the weekend off as the first race Saturday. Kole Holden and Brandon McGough, a couple Pavement Series regulars from Pennsylvania, put on a great show. Holden timed on the pole over Kayla Joseph and McGough and led much of the 20-lap feature. McGough moved past Joseph and into second early in the race and began hounding Holden for the top spot.
Holden fended off McGough's challenges until a few laps to go McGough finally got the run he needed to make an inside pass on Holden into turn three. McGough went on to win by a couple kart-lengths over Holden. Joseph was third, Austin Ousley fourth and Josh Miller fifth. DJ Powell rounded out the six-kart field.
Stock Medium
A couple of New York veterans led the way in Stock Medium with George Curtis winning over Ronnie Flaim. Curtis started on the pole and pulled away from Flaim lap after lap to score a 1.2-second victory over the local runner. Denver Brandts came up from Virginia and finished third.
Sportsman 1
Dayne Koontz opened a strong Saturday afternoon with a Sportsman 1 flat-kart win over WKA Gold Cup Series regular Matthew Miller. Koontz, who also races the Gold Cup from time to time, won over Miller by about a half-second gap. Kevin Gardiner finished third aboard a sleek-looking red No. 15.
"I'd like to thank my family for the support and GT Machine for great power," the 11-year-old Koontz said after his first win of the day.
Masters Champ
Gary Jackinski was the only Masters Champ driver in attendance. Jackinski waved qualifying and made 10 laps in the feature aboard his sharp No. 69.
Sportsman 1 Champ
Dayne Koontz made it two-for-two on the day with his Sportsman 1 Champ victory in a tight race over Christian Hanson. Hanson qualified on the pole and led the first half of the 20-lapper before Koontz shot past on lap 11. Hanson wouldn't give up, retaking the lead on lap 15 and fending off Koontz's challenges until Dayne gunned it to the inside on the final lap to retake the lead and get the victory.
"I would like to thank my dad for giving me a great kart, Dave Koehler for the power and Rage Karts for their help," Koontz commented after win No. 2 on the day.
William Ebert closed on the top-two at times but never made it close enough to challenge. Ebert went on to finish third in the exciting race.
Senior Champ
The day's largest class saw 13 starters hit the track for Senior Champ's 20-lap main. Gavin Soraghan timed on the pole with a quick lap of 10.271 in qualifying and led the opening six laps of the feature before Ohio driver Cullen Mumaw got by. A hard-charging Kevin Baird passed Soraghan late in the race for second and made a run at Mumaw before running out of laps.
Mumaw crossed the stripe 0.214 seconds in front of Baird to capture the win. Long Island's James Hayden was third, Nick Wiery fourth and Soraghan fifth.
Sportsman 2 Champ
New Jersey's Matthew Addona and Maine's Wyatt Alexander put out on terrific show in Sportsman 2 Champ. The pair traded the lead numerous times in a race for the lead that began to look like a NASCAR event at Talladega.
Addona had the lead on the white-flag lap with Alexander right behind. As anticipated Alexander shot to the inside of Addona down the backstretch but Addona gave him little room in turns three and four. Breaking Alexander's momentum on the inside, Addona was able to hold off the Maine racer and score the big win.
Alexander settled for second. New York's Eddie Fatscher was third, Tyler Pepin fourth, Cornelius Flynn fifth and Austin Belski sixth.
Junior Champ
Eleven drivers signed in for Jr Champ and an accident in the first of three morning practice sessions threw a curveball to several racers early in the day. At least five karts were involved in the turn two accident and several had to make repairs. All drivers were able to make it back out for qualifying, including Ryan Lutz, who missed the rest of practice but still timed second fastest to Christian Schneider.
Schneider had the field covered in the 20-lap feature, leading every lap on his way to the win by half-second over Lutz. Brandon McGough qualified a disappointing ninth but advanced all the way to third before the checkers waved. Bryan Noel was fourth and John Paul Kraisinger rounded out the top five.
Stock Heavy
George Curtis swept the senior flat-kart divisions with his second win of the day, this time in Stock Heavy.
Curtis qualified a couple tenths faster than Virginia's Dale Portner and proceeded to pull away to a convincing 5.5-second win over Long Island's James Hayden, who passed Portner late in the race for the runner-up position. Portner held on for third and Jason Ness was fourth.
"I would like to thank Mike Denning for the chassis, Bud Denning for the setup, Kevin Smith, my dad and grandpa and my friends and family for the support," the 19-year-old Curtis said after his second win of the day.
Champ Heavy Money Race
Thirteen drivers entered the $500-to-win Champ Heavy Money Race which consisted of qualifying and two 25-lap segments. Jeff Hoisington of Rage Karts put up a $100 bonus to the winner of the first 25-lap segment, meaning racers had a shot at a cool $600 payday.
And Gary Lawson took full advantage.
Lawson started fifth and quickly moved to the front of the pack in the opening 25-lap affair. Gavin Soraghan closed on Lawson and looked to be setting the Ohio driver up for a pass when the caution flag waved on lap 17.
Once the race restarted Soraghan had his hands full holding off Kevin Cockerham and others and slipped back outside the top five. Lawson cruised to the win in the first 25 and started on the pole in the final segment.
The second 25-lapper was all Lawson. The multi-time national champion in the WKA Gold Cup Series led wire-to-wire to score a big win and secure the full $600 winner's share over his teammate, Nick Wiery. Cockerham was third, Cullen Mumaw fourth and Soraghan fifth. A total of $1400 was awarded among the top-five finishers.
Jr Medium Flathead
Sunday opened with three drivers taking the green flag in Jr Medium. Kole Holden found redemption from his second-place run on Sunday and passed pole-sitter Kayla Joseph several laps into the 20-lap main on his way to the win. Joseph held tough with Holden and crossed the stripe only 0.207 seconds behind. Josh Miller was third.
Sportsman 1 Flathead
Matthew Miller denied Dayne Koontz of a weekend hat trick with his 2.3-second win over Koontz in the flathead version of Sportsman 1. Miller timed on the pole with a lap of 11.828 around Chapel's 0.8-mile oval and pulled away from Koontz throughout the 20-lap main. Koontz didn't seem to have the same power with the flathead that he displayed on Saturday in the Animal divisions, while Miller was just as strong with the Raptor bolted on his flat-kart.
Jr Champ
The Jr Champ competitors unanimously elected to run the Animal on Sunday, instead of the flathead. The day's only Animal-powered division featured more of what we saw Saturday from Christian Schneider.
Schneider wheeled his sharp No. 5 to another convincing win to sweep the Jr Champ classes on the weekend. This time Daniel Wesson finished about a half-second back of Schneider in second. John Paul Kraisinger improved on his fifth-place Saturday performance to take third. John Hawley made the long trek from Indiana and was fourth. Ryan Lutz rounded out the top five.
Sportsman 1 Champ Flathead
Christian Hanson qualified on the pole and pulled away in the feature to win by a two-second gap over William Ebert. Dayne Koontz was third, again denied of his third win of the weekend. Owen Kraisinger decided he wanted to race late Saturday night and finished fourth after his father put a champ-kart together for him into the early hours of Sunday morning.
Sportsman 2 Champ Flathead
One could argue the Sportsman 2 Champ competitors put on the best show all weekend. After Matthew Addona and Wyatt Alexander traded the lead over a half-dozen times in Saturday's race, Eddie Fatscher joined the two on Sunday to make it a three-kart battle for the flathead win.
After battling and swapping the lead throughout the race, Fatscher led Addona into the final corner when the pair made contact and Fatscher spun around. Addona slowed as a result, allowing third-place running Alexander to shoot past both drivers and cross the finish line first. Addona slid through the grass and crossed the stripe a mere 0.002 seconds after Alexander.
Cornelius Flynn came round to take third while Fatscher was the bad-luck recipient and was credited with fourth after nearly earning the win.
Senior Champ Flathead
Nine senior champ racers bolted on the flathead for Sunday's race and Michael Nolan qualified on the pole. Nolan led early until Saturday winner Cullen Mumaw made it past. Mumaw waved the Rage flag high and proceeded to win the race and both national Senior Champ mains on the weekend.
Nick Wiery was second, 0.384 seconds back of Mumaw. Nolan held on for third, James Hayden fourth and local Olean, N.Y., racer Skip Giberson fifth.
Senior Champ Mix
A new mixed-engine class for senior champ racers was added to the schedule for the Grand Nationals. Three flatheads and three restricted Animals took the green, and it was Kevin Cockerham getting the popular victory after Dustin Hayes was disqualified for tipping the scales too light.
Cockerham, running a flathead, won over Emily Flaim's Animal. Skip Giberson was third, Alex Colasanto fourth and New Hampshire's John Berger fifth.
WKA thanks the racers, teams and families who came out to Chapel Hill for the Grand Nationals. The event went smooth by accounts, and the teams and families enjoyed seeing friends from past seasons and meeting the new people who had never been to Chapel in years' past.

Federal funds requested by the Department of Energy for use at the Savannah River Site were approved by Congress on Wednesday, according to Congressman Joe Wilson, R-S.C., apparently alleviating concerns over the threat of furloughs at the facility.
The funding request was geared toward softening the blow of sequestration, which resulted in budget shortfalls, a forced reduction in staffing and narrowing of the Site's scope of work.
The Office of Management and Budget approved the $79 million funding request earlier this month, where it had sat since March 18. The proposal still had to be passed by two U.S. House committees and two U.S. Senate committees.
Word came Wednesday that the committees had given their OK.
The funding request now goes before the Office of Management and Budget one more time for what Wilson said "should be a somewhat perfunctory" thumbs up.
He hopes it comes quickly as work schedules are laid out by the end of the week. For many at SRS, today is the end of the workweek.
Overall, Wilson called the approval a "tremendous victory" for Aiken and Barnwell counties, as well as the state and nation as a whole.
"As a member of Congress who serves on one of the four committees given jurisdiction over the approval process, I commend the House and Senate for taking action quickly to ensure that our nation's nuclear facilities are capable of completing vital missions with an appropriate workforce," he said in a statement.
Reprogramming allows for the use of funds for a purpose other than that for which they were originally provided, according to the Office of Management and Budget.
Sequestration cut $100 million from SRS funding. More than 2,500 employees were also subject to reduced working hours. If the funds had not been approved by May 22, up to 900 employees would have lost all working hours.
Local S.C. Rep. Don Wells applauded the efforts of the state's Congressional leaders to get the proposal passed.
"It's vitally important to not only our community with the financial ramifications, but also the defense of our nation," Wells said about the mission of SRS. "We're very thrilled to see that they've gotten this done."
The Congressional decision was viewed with a sigh of relief from local S.C. Rep. Bill Taylor.
"The value of SRS is clear," Taylor said. "It would have a been a dreadful blow to the mission of SRS if those committees had not reprogrammed the money."
