Newberrytown,
PA (July 19, 2015) Danny Dietrich of Gettysburg has gone three-for-three this
season by taking the 410 Sprint Car victory in the Sunday Night Sprint Car
Special present by Shetron Auction Services and Newville Construction at the
Susquehanna Speedway Park. Mark
Smith from Sunbury collected the URC 360/358 Sprint Car 25-lap Challenge
Race. The EMMR Vintage Cars also
participated in exhibition hot laps before the features began.
By virtue of a
six spot inversion, Hunter Mackison and Brian Montieth brought the field to the
green in the 410 Sprint Car 25-lap feature event. Montieth
grabbed the early lead over Hunter Mackison. With 10 laps to go, Danny
Dietrich got by Mackison for second and set his sights on the leader. As Montieth navigated lapped traffic,
Dietrich slowly began eating away at the straightaway lead that Montieth had
built up. With two laps to go,
Dietrich began challenging for the lead and on the final circuit made the pass
for the win to collect his third SSP victory of the season in as many
races. Montieth settled for
second, followed by a career best third place finish for Chase Dietz. Tyler Ross finished fourth with Hunter
Mackison coming across the line in fifth.
Heat race wins went to Smith and Dietz.
In the URC
360/358 Sprint Car Challenge Race, polesitter Mark Smith took the lead from the
pole position of the 25 lapper and began to set a blistering pace.
The only thing that slowed Smith down was a caution for a spinning car in
turn 4 on lap 19. This allowed
2nd place running Robbie Stillwagon to wipe out the huge lead and
start on Smiths rear bumper on the restart. When the race went back to green, Smith
once again set the pace and went on to take the victory over Stillwagon at the
end. Curt Michael came across the
line in third, followed by Josh Weller in fourth.
Davie Franek rounded out the top five. Michael and Weller were the heat race
winners.
