FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mechanicsburg –
Lucas Wolfe took the lead from Lance Dewease and drove to his second sprint car
win of the season at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night.
Wolfe pocketed $4,180 for the victory including lap and bonus
money.
Steve Buckwalter scored in the 20-lap ARDC Midget main to
close the night.
The highly competitive 410 sprint main
saw the red flag appear on the first lap when Pat Cannon got out of shape while
challenging leader Tim Glatfalter in the third corner.
Cannon’s racer ended up against the
outside rail while also collecting the front running machines of Brent Marks,
Chase Dietz and others.
Glatfelter restarted with the lead but his run there was short
as one-time winner Austin Hogue throttled around the outside and into control on
the restart.
Lance Dewease, who restarted third, drove to second with three
away and immediately began challenging Hogue for the lead, taking it with four
away in the 25 lapper.
Glatfelter then stopped with five down and slowed the pace
again with eighth starter Wolfe sitting third for the restart.
Wolfe had disposed of Hogue for second on the restart and was
less than a second behind Dewease when another yellow flag unfurled with eight
laps down.
Dewease kept Wolfe at bay when green
reappeared but Dewease failed to slip away as Danny Dietrich and Greg Hodnett
began swapping the third spot.
Dewease’s lead of just over a second was
wiped out with the advent of another yellow flag on the 11th tour and
again, he kept Wolfe at bay at the new green.
However on a final restart with 11 laps
to go, Wolfe provided more of a challenge and Dewease could only hold Wolfe off
until the 18th circuit when the Mechanicsburg native blasted
underneath for control in the first corner.
Wolfe then began pulling away from the field once he got
control as Dietrich and Hodnett continued their battle.
In the end Wolfe took the checkers by 3.308 seconds over
Dewease, Dietrich, Hodnett and Brian Montieth.
Sixth through 10th went to 17th
starter Freddie Rahmer, Cory Haas, Hogue, Rodney Westhafer and Glenndon
Forsythe.
Heats went to Wolfe, Hodnett and Dewease.
Shawn Jackson controlled the first 5 laps of the ARDC Midget
main before Tommy Kunsman took over.
But on the move from the 12th
starting spot was Steve Buckwalter, who was up to fourth by just the completion
of the sixth tour.
Buckwalter moved around PJ Gargiulo for third with eight down,
then took second from Jackson a lap later before getting underneath Kunsman for
the win with six laps to go.
Steve Drevicki finished second followed
by Kunsman, Gargiulo and Brenden Bright.
Heats went to Brett Wanner and Brett
Arndt.
