Home track advantage paid big dividends ---$17,500
to be exact--- as J.R. Heffner led a sweep of the
top-three finishing positions Thursday night in
capturing his second career Super DIRTcar Series Mr.
DIRT Track, USA victory at Lebanon Valley Speedway.
Heffner already knows where some of the earnings may
go as the Pittsfield, Mass. pilot posed in victory
lane beside a disabled A. Colarusso & Son no. 74
Goodermote Excavation/Bicknell ride after losing
both the rear-end and engine in his final dash to
the checkers.

Mike Bowman made a dramatic last turn move on leader
Robbie Krull to win a taut 30 lap Modified Feature
at Humberstone Speedway on Sunday, August 29th. In
so doing, he over came a large point lead held by
Chad Brachmann, whose team had to make a supreme
effort to get him back on the track after a first
lap incident.
As the field roared down the front stretch after
taking the opening green, there was a tangle
involving Brachmann, Mat Williamson, and Adam
Leslie, with the Williamson and Brachmann machines
becoming entangled. After being freed, Brachmann
ducked into the pits for repairs. He was just able
to join the field from turn three as the field took
the green to stay on the lead lap.

Richards
Claims Red Miley Rumble at PPMS. |
|
On Saturday night there
was a doubleheader at Pittsburgh's Pennsylvania
Motor Speedway. The regularly scheduled 44-lap Red
Miley Rumble was won by Josh Richards from
Shinnston, WV, earning him in excess of $4,000 as
numerous individual sponsorships increased every
position in the race.
Also on tap in the co-sanctioned show between the
UFo Race Championship and ULMS Racing Series was a
makeup race from the PENNational event on July 24,
when the second of the two events that night was
canceled by rain. That gave the fans an added bonus
of the 28-lap make-up race from that night. Current
PPMS point leader Mike Johnson cruised to victory in
this event, earning the $2,000 top prize. |

checkers with Decker picking up the first ever win
for car owner Ken Seya. A yellow with one lap to go

length on Johnson to be the first under the checkers
in his Commercial Roofing & Sheet Metal No.10 for
the 0.444 second win.
Other winners on Syracuse.Com/ Carson’s Car Mart of
Oswego were, Tim Sears Jr. SUNY Canton Sportsman,
