STAFFORD SPRINGS, Conn. -- Tuesday night, June 28th, was the 8th annual CARQUEST Extreme Tuesday program at Stafford Motor Speedway. Chris Perley won the 50-lap ISMA Supermodified feature, Russ Stoehr won the 30-lap NEMA Midget feature event, and Norm Wrenn made it four wins in a row at Stafford by taking the 25-lap Pro-4 Modified feature event. In the CARQUEST Champions For Charities event, Keith Rocco took the checkered flag but the real winner was charity as the 14 champion drivers raised over $40,000 for their selected charities.In the 50-lap ISMA Supermodified feature event, Ted Christopher took the lead from the pole and bean to set a blistering pace, pulling away from the rest of the competition. Bobby Magner and Johnny Benson were side by side for second place with Benson eventually getting the spot after several laps. Mike Lichty was running fourth with Russ Wood making up the remainder of the top-5 in the early laps.
Christopher was running strong in the lead and was maintaining a several car length lead over Benson in second at the lap-10 marker. Chris Perley was beginning to make a charge to the front of the field at this stage of the race and he cracked into the top-5 by passing Jamie Timmons. The action was slowed by the caution flag with 27 laps complete for Timmons, who spun in turn 2 after he had run among the top-5 cars.
Christopher got a great restart and pulled out to the lead while Perley and Benson were side by side for second. Perley took the spot from Benson on lap-25, while Christopher was continuing to pull away. Several laps after the restart, Perley began to reel Christopher back in and when the two lead cars began to navigate lapped traffic, Perley closed right up to Christopher 's bumper. Perley made the pass for the lead on lap-43 and he led the remaining 7 laps as Christopher began to fall back from Perley. Benson came home in third behind Perley and Christopher, with Timmy Jedrzejek, and Russ Wood making up the top-5.
The CARQUEST Champions For Charities 15-lap feature was a wild race with positions swapping lap by lap. Woody Pitkat took the early lead, but he was overtaken by Bobby Santos, III on lap-3 for the lead. Before Santos could get back to the line to lead the lap, Richie Pallai, Jr. moved his kart to the front.
Pitkat charged back by Pallai for the lead on lap-4 while Pallai retook the lead on lap-5.

Not all is right in my garden, however, as some rabbit managed to exploit an unseen-by-me hole in my fence and munched on my entire pole-bean crop. Fence repaired, I've replanted and hopefully will have some Blue Lakes, albeit later than usual.

For some years when the great pea harvest was finished the garden entered a quiet season. There was still plenty to eat of course, salads and carrots, and beets and beans, but the next great celebration waited on the ripening of tomatoes and even more, on the corn harvest. That should not have been. We grew what we thought were good American bean varieties, largely bush type, Burpee’s Tender Pick and Purple Queen, Vermont Bean and Seeds Provider, Vesey’s Maxipel, Pine Trees Bountiful. And we grew pole beans as well, especially Kentucky Wonder, generally thought the best of all. Yet to us they seemed all to possess a bland sameness never ascending to the status of something you really look forward to eating. Well, we thought, beans just aren’t as good as peas.
Some years later, while in Rome, we stumbled upon a small shop that sold gardening things – pots and fertilizer and seeds. The seeds were irresistible, packaged in great large packs with brilliant photographs on their covers. Their names were all in Italian so we knew not what we were buying. But buy we did, all manner of things – chicory and lettuce and artichokes and more than anything else, beans. The combination of name and photograph made them irresistible. Fagiolo Rampicanta, Meraviglia small di Venezia, for example, a great vigorous climbing bean with broad flat yellow pods of extraordinary flavor. And Fagiolo rampicanta Supermarconi, also vigorously climbing and equally flavorful if more green than yellow.
A dish of Pasta con Fagioli eaten in an outdoor café with family caused us to seek out shelling beans. We are particularly fond of Borlotto Lamon a climbing bean with beautiful red and white mottled shells with small brown speckled beans, considered the finest of all the shelling beans. We usually grow six or eight different varieties of pole bean, trained up on an 8’ arch of bamboo which covers the center part of the central path. It is high enough that one can walk under it, always a pleasure in any garden.
Of course we grow bush beans too, both because they mature earlier but also because they occupy much less space. Like pole beans, they come in a great variety of forms. Slender Green Baby Bianca matures as early as fifty five days whereas most pole beans take 70 days at least to reach picking size. Brittle Wax is golden yellow, slender, also early but it bears all it’s crop at once so you must sow small numbers every ten days or so for a longer harvest. Marconi is a flat green Roman type, good but not as flavorful as Super Marconi. In fact none of the bush beans equal the pole beans in flavor what ever advantage they offer in compactness and earliness.
