ALAN JOHNSON WINS FOURTH OF THE SEASON AT BREWERTON ON KINNEY DRUG STORES NIGHT

 
BREWERTON, NY...Alan Johnson continued his mastery of Brewerton Speedway last Friday on Kinney Drugs Stores Night. Johnson won his fourth 35-lap DIRT Big Block Modified feature race of the season at the D-shaped DIRT Demon. Johnson worked up from the 14th starting position to make the move for the victory past Matt Sheppard on lap-28.
 
     Steve Hulsizer raced out to the early lead at the start of the Kinney Drugs Stores DIRT Big Block Modified feature from the pole starting position. Hulsizer only led the first circuit. Tim Fuller took the lead away from Hulsizer on lap two. With five laps complete Fuller and Hulsizer were being followed in the top five by Pat Ward, Ryan Phelps and Matt Sheppard.
 
     Fuller would lead the talented field through lap-13. Sheppard took the top spot away from Fuller at that point. At the halfway mark Sheppard, Johnson, Fuller, Ward and Billy Decker raced in the top five. Chuck Bower, Vic Coffey, Dale Planck, Gary Tomkins and Sean Beardsley occupied positions sixth through tenth respectively at the halfway mark.
 
     Sheppard and Johnson put on quite a show in racing for the top spot. It was on lap-28 when Johnson found room under Sheppard entering the second turn. Once in front the driver of the Jeff Rudalavage owned, WPC Associates sponsored car went on to the $2,000 payday. Ward worked up for second, while Decker came from the last starting position to finish third. Fuller and Sheppard completed the top five.
 
     Carmen Vona Jr. won his first 20-lap IMCA Modified feature race of the season last Friday night. Bill Anderson Sr., Johnny Hill, Les Hubbard and Bob Bradt followed Vona across the finish line. Vona took the top spot away from Coleen Finch on lap three and never gave it back.
