BREWERTON, NY...Tim Fuller
wasted little time in moving to the front of the DIRT Big Block Modified
field last Friday at Brewerton Speedway on Coors Light / Sun-Up Foods
Night. In the process the driver from Northern New York won his fourth
$2,000 to win 35-lap event of the season at the D-shaped DIRT Demon in
the Native Poker sponsored entry.
DIRT Big Block Modified rookie driver
Kevin Bates jumped out to the early lead at the start of the main event
from the outside pole starting position. Bates led the first five
circuits of the event. Tom Sears Jr. took the top spot away from Bates
on lap six. Bates regained the lead from Sears on lap seven. And the duo
continued to swap the top spot through lap nine.
Fuller took the lead away from Sears on
lap-10 as he wasted little time in charging to the front. Decker
followed Fuller through the field and the duo raced side by side for
over 10 circuits. Alan Johnson made his typical late race charge to make
it a three car battle for the win. Fuller never gave up possession of
the top spot and earned the feature win.
Alan Johnson won the battle for the
second position with Decker having to settle for third. Jimmy Phelps and
Danny Johnson finished in positions fourth and fifth respectively. Pat
Ward, Bates, Ryan Phelps, Matt Sheppard and Scott Prentice completed the
top ten feature finishers in the most competitive field in DIRT
Motorsports racing.
Former IMCA Modified Track Champion and
current point leader Johnny Hill earned his third 20-lap IMCA Modified
feature race win last Friday night. Dale Caswell, Kevan Cook, Rich
Keller and Steve Coit rounded out the top five feature finishers. Hill
made the winning move on lap-18 past Caswell. Rich Keller and Coit were
also feature race leaders.
Tim Devendorf was another former track
champion that added to his point lead last Friday night. Devendorf won
his fourth ESDCA Mod Lite feature race win ahead of Mike Isabell, Lowell
Zehr, Joe Gwilt and Rocco Leone. Devendorf passed Mike Isabell for the
win on lap-16. Isabell led the first 15-laps of the main event.
Chuck Powelczyk maintained his point
lead in the Four Cylinder Super Stock class with his sixth 15-lap win of
the season last Friday night. Joey Delacruz, Claude Hutchings Jr., Aron
Backus and Lorraine Powelczyk finished in positions second through fifth
respectively. Powelczyk earned the victory with a last lap pass of
Delacruz. Matt Wetterer and Sam Carista were also feature race winners.
Chad Guthrie won yet another Four
Cylinder Enduro last Friday night and added to his point lead in the
class. Chad Dupra, Morris Matthews, Josh Herbert and Jerry Herbert
completed the top five feature finishers.
Race competition will pick-up again
