It didn’t
take Chad Layton long to find victory lane with new car owner Pete Postupack.
Layton stormed to the win Saturday night at Lincoln Speedway in the makeup
20 lap feature that was rained out last Saturday night. He had led the first
five laps last week and never gave up the lead for his first win of the
season.
It also ended a dry spell for Postupack’s team, who recently departed ways
with three-year driver Lance Dewease.
Layton’s win came over Doug Esh, 2007 Lincoln track champion Fred Rahmer,
Jim Siegel and Niki Young.
In the regularly scheduled 35-lap sprint car main, Alan Krimes made his
allnighter pay off with his second win of the season.
Krimes blew a motor on Friday and was up all night with his Uncle Butch
building a new power plant. The team also had to change rears in the car but
Krimes worked through the field with ease, taking the lead on lap 19 and
taking the win.
Johnny Mackison, Jr. finished second with Pat Cooper taking his best career
finish in third spot over Chris Knopp and Lance Dewease.
Eric Eckert topped the 25 lap Super Sportsman feature at Lincoln for his
first career win over Jake Raudabaugh’s Walt Bigler owned machine. Third
went to Duaine Smith with Frankie Herr coming from 15th to finish fourth
over Gregg Foster.
Mark Watkins won the makeup 305 Sprint car feature that was rained out on
April 28. He won over Todd Spangler, Brent Comp, Mike Freet and Scott
Ellerman.
Craig Robinson won the regular 20 lap feature over Mike Freet, Scott Smith,
Mark Watkins and Todd Spangler.
DEWEASE WINS IN FIRST NIGHT OUT
Fayetteville’s Lance Dewease won the first night out in the Donny Owens
owned No. 30c sprint car.
Dewease took the win in Thursday night’s 32 lap York County Nationals at
Susquehanna Speedway Park after leading the entire distance.
Doug Esh, Don Kreitz, Jr., Fred Rahmer and Lucas Wolfe were the top five
finishers.
KELLEHER TAKES FOURTH WIN
It’s been a career season for Scranton’s Larry Kelleher as he raced to his
fourth win of the year in 358 sprint car action at Selinsgrove Speedway.
Kelleher outraced Pat Cannon over the final laps for the win with Cannon,
Brian Nornhold, Len Krautheim and Jeff Furlong finishing out the top five.
Jeff Rine clinched his third career Selinsgrove championship and also
scored his seventh win of the year in the 25 lap late model main. He took
the checkered flag over Ricky Elliott, Tony Adams, Eric Hons and Nick
Dickson.
Brad Trump made it two in a row in pro stock action and Ricky Bender took
his first roadrunner win.
BIG WIN FOR ANDERSON
Andy Anderson came from his 10th starting position to take the big win
Saturday at Hagerstown Speedway in the 44 lap McBee/Hays Championship for
late models.
While Anderson was winning the race, Winchester, Virginia’s JT Spence
clinched his first ever late model track championship. He came into the
night 100 points behind Bo Feathers, who had problems and it was Spence’s
runner-up finish good enough to win the title by 34 points.
Alan Sagi finished third over Billy Wampler and Jamie Lathroum.
Shermansdale’s Mike Lupfer finished ninth.
Andy Fries was the late model sportsman winner over Tyler Armstrong, Cody
Lear, Barry Miller and Kyle Lear.
STUHLER ROMPS AT BEDFORD
Greencastle’s Gary Stuhler hasn’t had the winning season he is accustomed
to but he picked up the big payday Friday night in the Labor Day 55 at
Bedford Speedway.
Stuhler’s sixth win of the season was worth $5,055.
He started on the pole but followed Scott Rhodes for 50 laps before making
the race winning move to win over Jeff Rine, Rhodes, Chris Harr and Jack
Pencil.
Shawn Claar was the limited late model winner over Travis Calhoun and Derek
Byler with Newville’s Donnie Farling 10th.
