KEARCHNER SCORES SECOND CAREER WIN IN TRAIL-WAY 358 SPRINTS; TRAVIS MEASE TAKES SECOND OF THE YEAR IN 358 LATE MODELS; TRAVIS SCOTT HOLDS OFF BRAD WEBER IN 600 MICROS; CHRONISTER AGAIN IN LIMITED STOCKS

HANOVER, PA (7/17/2015) – Seth Kearchner was the star of the show in the 358 sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.

“This feels great!” exclaimed the Fairfield driver after scoring his first win of the year and second Trail-Way career spring car win, “We’ve had an okay season, but this does it!”

Kearchner started on the pole and led every lap, despite heavy late-race pressure from hard charger Brad McClelland, who came from tenth starting spot to close to within .46 seconds of Kearchner at the checkered.

“I saw the ‘6’ car up on the board and intended to keep it that way,” continued Kearchner, “We completely flopped at the Grove last week, and did some serious research this week.  We had a really good car tonight.”

McClelland was more than two seconds behind when he caught front-row starter Cody Fletcher for the runner-up spot on lap 21.  But for the fourth time in five races, he settled for second to a first-time 2015 winner.

Fletcher crossed third, with Jeff Halligan and Isaac Sneeringer completing the top five.

“In addition to NAPA Auto Parts, DB Communications, and my other sponsors, I want to thank Rachel,” said Kearchner of his bride-to-be, “She’s not just a pretty girl at the track, she’s a pretty girl in the shop, too!”

Qualifiers for the 13 sprint cars were won by Halligan and Sneeringer.

Travis Mease closed to within 16 points of Trail-Way/Lincoln Precise Racing Products points leader Sam Gallagher with his second Trail-Way win of the year in the 358 late model feature, establishing a new 25-lap track record of 6 minutes, 54.75 seconds in the process.

Mease started fourth and wrestled the lead from polesitter Tyler Horst on lap 16.  After making the race-winning pass, Mease pulled away from the rest of the field for his second series win in four races run so far this year.

Cam Zeigler won a multi-car battle for second, with Sam Gallagher, Horst, and Brad Shank rounding out the top five.

The lone heat for the nine 358 late models was won by Gallagher.

Travis Scott picked up his first win of the year and fourth of his Trail-Way career in the 20-lap 600cc micro-sprint feature.  Scott took the lead from polesitter Kameron Morral on lap six and held off a charging Brad Weber by .54 seconds at the end.

Tyler Walton came from eighth starting spot to cross third, with 12th-starting Jim Young and tenth-starting A.J. Bast completing the top five.

Heats for the 18 micros were won by Young and Colton Baughman.

Matt Chronister came from ninth starting spot to score his fifth win of the year in the 15-lap limited stock feature.  His final margin of victory was 1.9 seconds over Cody Klinedinst.  Third through fifth were Shane Miller, 12th-starting Kyle Rohrbaugh, and Sarah Redmond.

Qualifiers for the 22 limited stocks were won by Terry Hartlaub, Matt Chronister, and Ricky Weaver, Jr.  Weaver blew a motor and dropped to the infield while leading on lap nine of the feature.

Trail-Way swings back into action next Friday July 24th, hosting the 358 Sprints, Central PA Legends, Classic Cars and Limited Stocks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m., with heats beginning at 7:45 p.m.
