OWENSBORO, KY – JULY 13, 2018 WINDY HOLLOW
The Summit Racing Equipment American Modified Series made their next stop at Windy Hollow Speedway Friday night. Kentucky’s Josh Harris would sweep the entire event and claim the $2,000 victory in his #22 MBR chassis.
Harris would begin the event by taking the QuickCar “Fast Time Award” with a time of 17.160 seconds. Heat race action would see Harris and Trent Young claim victory in their respective heat races. Harris and Young would lead the field to green in the 30-lap main event. The top two drivers in the 2018 championship point standings would battle side-by-side on the opening lap with Young taking point out front off turn four. Harris would continue to pressure Young for the lead and eventually take over the top spot on lap five. After a lap twelve caution, the restart would see Harris and Young battle into turn-one. Young would drift high and would fall to eighth position. Young’s misfortune would allow Chad Boone to have his turn to challenge Harris for the top spot. Young would battle his way back to the third position throughout the mid-point of the event. The event’s final caution would fly on lap-25 for a tangle in turn four between Gabriel Kirtley and John Clippinger. The final restart would see Harris, Boone, and Young battle three wide for the top spot with Harris emerging as the leader off turn four. Harris would lead the remainder of the event and claim his second series victory of 2018. Trent Young would take second while Chad Boone would complete the podium finishers. Tait Davenport would take fourth position and Blaze Melton would round out the top five.
The remainder of the top ten at the completion of the Summit Racing Equipment A-Main at Windy Hollow Speedway would be “Allstar Performance Hard Charger” Rich Dawson, John Clippinger, Marty Lindeman, Mark Cole, and Gabriel Kirtley.
The next event for the Summit Racing Equipment Modified Series will be July 14th at Brownstown Speedway. The event will pay $2,000.00 to the winner.
