Ohio Valley Speedway June 1 results

Kudos to Scott Wolfe for passing along results!



OHIO VALLEY SPEEDWAY RESULTS
 A couple of early-evening showers resulting in a 90-minute delay, several changes in the show’s program, and late-evening fog couldn’t stop Ohio Valley Speedway from completing its 6th program of the 2013 season.  A total of 108 race teams jammed the pits.

 The 25-lap Late Model main stole the show.  Thirty-one late models turned out; Frankie Roush, Dan Morrison, Paul Wilmoth, and Freddie Carpenter won heats; Billy Holbert and Derek Doll the two B-mains to set the field.  Wilmoth and Colten Burdette drew the front-row starting positions; Burdette led lap one before Wilmoth took over.  Robbie Scott and Carpenter dueled with Wilmoth during the first 11 laps with 12th-starting Wayne Hughes joined the three-some at that point.

  Following a caution, Hughes got by both Carpenter and Scott for second; he and Wilmoth put on one of the finest duels seen in quite some time, trading the lead four times during the last three laps with Wilmoth prevailing by a car-length at the line.  Hughes, Scott, Donnie Dotson (from 16th) and Ronnie Mayle (from 10th) finished in the top 5.  Dan Morrison, Andy Bond (from 15th), Burdette, Steve Weigle, and Ed Shuman finished 6-thru-10, and provided more racing action sometimes going 2-and-3 wide themselves while dueling for position.

 While everyone was still trying to catch his/her breath following the late model feature, the OCTANE AMRA Modified feature provided excitement of its own.  Jerrad Willis took the initial lead.  A caution after lap 5 required four tries to complete another lap; Willis was one of the victims, spinning in front of the field in Turn 2 on the third restart attempt, collecting 5th-place Jeremy Blake and eliminating both. 

 Jason Brookover, who had started 5th was second at the time of Willis’ spin, and inherited the lead.  That turned out to last only three laps, as Brookover’s mount suddenly lost power in front of the field.  Robbie Evans inherited the lead, with Nick Corbitt and Tyler Evans behind.  Corbitt dueled with both Evanses for the remaining 12 go-rounds, and making one last-ditch effort for the win; he tried the outside line coming to the checker but was about 18” short at the line.  R. Evans claimed his first win of the season; T. Evans, Rod Sayre (from 16th), and Andy Bond finished 3-5.  There have now been six different AMRA Modified feature winners this season.  Willis, Jason Brooks, and T. Evans won the heats; Sayre claimed the consi.  T. Evans has now won a heat every week, and also has 6 consecutive top-5 finishes.
