Brett Hearn ran out of gas with just 6 laps to go handing the $10,000 win to Andy Bachetti. Bachetti is now guarenteed to start no worse than 7th place in the Rite-Aid 200 during Super Dirt Week in a month. The Lebanon Valley boys held down their home turf by collecting the top 4 positions (in order, Heffner-Marshall-M. Flach.) Tip of the hat to Rich Ricci who was driving the #64 usually driven by Donnie Ackner (Donnie was attempting to win the points championship at Devils Bowl.) Ricci put the car in the field solidly and came home with a 5th place finish. What makes it so impressive was it was his first time in the car. Small blocks were also part of the card with twin-features, Kory Standstedt and Art Collins shocked the 358 fields by splitting the features.
In the rest of the racing world, Ted Lamb finally picked up his first win of the year by winning the last points race of the year at Utica Rome. Pat Ward's dominating season has earned him the 2008 Utica Rome track championship. Congratulations to Pat Ward on another impressive season. At Devils Bowl, Tim LaDuc did everything in his power to win the track championship by winning the feature event, but he would end up finishing 2nd in the final points standings to Todd Stone. Stone ran asphalt and came back to dirt within the past 5 years. Great job Todd, congratulations!
With the rainout, Redline's season came to a close and Brent Boyer was crowned champion for the second straight year. Congratulations to Brent and the #19 team. Frank Guidance picked up his second career modified championship at Mercer Raceway Park on Friday, Lonny Riggs picked up the feature win. Delaware, Bridgeport (Saturday), New Egypt, Accord, and Lebanon Valley (358) still have to crown champions.
Mike Perrotte has confirmed his plans to run in the big block portion of SDW.
