BROWNSTOWN, IN – JULY 14, 2018
The Summit Racing Equipment American Modified Series completed the weekend doubleheader at Brownstown Speedway Saturday night. Owensboro, KY’s Tyler Nicely would take home the $2,000 victory in his #25 Elite Chassis entry.
The 30-lap main event was scheduled to see Tyler Nicely and Devin Gilpin lead the field to green; however, Gilpin would suffer mechanical failures on the opening pace laps that would end his night prematurely. Nicely stormed to the lead off turn two on the opening lap followed closely by Trent Young. Nicely and Young would quickly start to edge away as the remainder of the field would see several three-wide battles throughout. Utilizing high side momentum, Young would continue to pressure the low-line running Nicely throughout the main event; however, Nicely proved to be too strong as he would lead flag-to-flag to claim his second series victory of 2018. Adam Stricker would take the third position, while Scott James would take fourth and Brian Shaw would round out the top five.
The remainder of the top ten at the completion of the Summit Racing Equipment A-Main at Brownstown Speedway would be Ryan Thomas, “Allstar Performance Hard Charger” Tim Rivers, Lucas Lee, Marty Lindeman, and Ricky Arms.
The next event for the Summit Racing Equipment Modified Series will be July 20th at Cedar Ridge Speedway. The event will pay $2,000.00 to the winner.
