Alan Johnson won a rainy World Series 200, which actually ended up being the World Series 125 as rains caused an early checkered to be thrown. The win was worth $10,000 to the hottest driver currently on the DIRT circuit, now picking up his 3rd win in 5 races since teaming up with Eric Kingsley and Jake Spraker's Spra-King Motorsports. Along with the win comes a guarenteed 8th place starting spot in the Rite-Aid 200. The team was not planning on attending, hopefully this will change their minds.
Tip of the hat goes to Carey Terrance who led the first 50 laps, and ran inside the top 5 until slipping with less than 5 laps to go on a great run in his first start racing an actual big block. Terrance, the 2008 Cornwall Speedway champion, has run with his 358 modified against the big blocks on a handful of occasions, including this year at Cornwall where he picked up a top 5 finish. Congratulations on an impressive showing, he ended up coming home in 7th place, one position of his teammate, Dale Planck, who finished 8th.
At Brighton Speedway's annual Applefest Shootout, it was Pete Bicknell that held off veteran Tim O'Brien for the $2,000 win. The race was shortened due to a rain shower coming on lap 32 of the feature.
Big Diamond and Glen Ridge both had to cancel their events for Saturday.
