Sarver, PA - April 30, 2010 - Jason Shank - O Reilly All Star Late Model Series Director
A gorgeous day, a packed house and the O'Reilly All Star Late Model Series greeted General Manager Gary Risch Jr. at Lernerville Speedway for the 2010 season opening 'Showdown in Sarvertown' in which 2009 ASLMS Champion Rob Blair from Titusville, PA captured the $5,000 payday and the series point lead.
York Haven, PA's Jason Covert and Davey Johnson from Latrobe, PA led the stout 25 car field to the green flag with Johnson leading the first lap.
Sixth place starter Blair had already made his way into the second position by lap three and worked under Johnson for the lead coming out of turn two to take the lead on lap four. Blair led for the next 9 circuits as the field battled behind him. On lap 13 Boom Briggs made his presence known after making his way under the 2009 Champion to take the lead.
While Boom led, he would stretch his lead on Blair for a handful of laps and then Blair would gain on Briggs for the next few laps. The two would go back and forth while drivers like Dave Hess Jr., Waterford, PA, Jared Miley, South Park, PA, Dick Barton, Asheville, NY, and Mike Knight, Ripley, MY all made their way through the field and into the top ten from their deep starting positions.
The action up front would intensify after a caution with 12 laps remaining.
Race leader Briggs had his hands full with Blair, Covert, and Hess Jr. all over his rear deck-lid. Blair would make his way around the #99B Rocket Chassis of Briggs as Hess Jr. followed Blair to move into second. Momentum was a key factor on the ultra-fast Lernerville Speedway on this night and whoever was able to make it 'stick' better coming out of turn four was the one who led that lap.
Blair and Hess Jr. battled side by side for the lead with Hess Jr. being credited with leading one lap. Covert and Briggs faded as the laps wound down and Blair gained control of the event with three laps remaining to win his first ASLMS event of the 2010 season and the second of his career.
Hess Jr. followed in second, with Covert third, Briggs fourth, and Miley rounding out the top five. Dick Barton finished sixth followed by Mike Knight, Alex Ferree, Jared Hawkins, and Greg Oakes finishing tenth.
