BECHTELSVILLE
 Fans who left with a few laps remaining in Wednesday night’s World of Outlaw feature at Grandview Speedway missed a dandy of a finish.

 Donny Schatz and Danny Lasoski traded the lead over the final two laps with Lasoski edging out Schatz by .036 seconds in the 35-lap feature to kick off the Dupont Tyvek Keystone Cup Sprint Series at the Bechtelsville oval.

 It was so close that Schatz actually thought he won the race.

 It was the final appearance by the World of Outlaws in the area until mid July and Lasoski’s first ever Grandview win came in front of a packed house.

 “What a race with Donny Schatz,” said the Higginsville, Missouri racer following his second $10,000 payday of the season on the tour.

“We raced side by side and never even came close to touching. It was real exciting and I just hope you folks enjoyed it.”

 Schatz won the Dash which gave him the pole spot and he quickly jumped out front over Daryn Pittman.

 Lasoski started fifth in the Dennis Roth owned No. 83 and moved into the runner-up spot with four laps complete.

 Schatz caught the rear of the field on lap eight but a caution for Lucas Wolfe, whose front win broke, opened the track up for the Fargo, N.D. racer.

 Pittman’s third place run ended with suspension problems on lap 12.

 Schatz continued to set the pace until he once again had to deal with traffic on lap 20 which allowed Lasoski to close in.

 Lasoski drove around the outside of the WoO points leader exiting the fourth turn to lead lap 22.

 While Lasoski and Schatz were out front, the man putting on a passing clinic was Joey Saldana, who stated in the 20th spot.

 Saldana raced his way into third place with 25 laps complete and appeared to be ready to track down the leaders.

 Schatz managed to get around Lasoski on lap 34 but Lasoski pulled alongside Schatz going down the backstretch on the final lap and emerged the winner in the photo finish.

 “He got caught in lapped traffic and that’s how I was able to get him and that’s how we lost the lead as well,” said the winner. On that last lap coming down the backstretch, I had a 50/50 shot. I didn’t know which way Pittman was gonna go. I went across the bottom and set up through the middle and I knew he would get a run on me. You can race him side by side and not have to worry about him turning into you. It was exciting.”

 Schatz settled for second with Saldana third, Jason Sides fourth and Paul McMahan fifth for an all Outlaw sweep in the top five.

 Fred Rahmer started 14th and finished sixth followed by Greg Hodnett, Jason Solwold, Tim Shaffer and Jeremy Campbell.

 McMahan paced the 39-car field in time trials with  a lap of 11.831 seconds.

 Heat races were won by Pittman, Hodnett, Campbell and Zach Chappell with the B-Main going to Rahmer.

 The Keystone Cup Series moves to the Big Diamond Raceway tonight with a $5,000 to win 30-lap feature. Race time is 7 p.m.
