Dewease Rules Randy Wolfe Tribute

MECHANICSBURG, Pa. — Lance Dewease pocketed his second Williams Grove Speedway 410 sprint car win of the season on Friday night, taking a $6,000 victory in the Randy Wolfe Tribute World of Outlaw Tune Up race. 

The start of the 25-lap Wolfe Tribute event was slowed when outside polesitter Devon Borden bicycled on the turn two cushion and spun. 

Borden’s misfortune put Dewease on the front row for the new start and the Fayetteville flyer wasted little time taking control when the green flag reappeared. 

The leader was then slowed for a spun Tyler Ross on the fourth lap. 

Jeff Halligan saw Freddie Rahmer wrestle second away on the restart as Dewease pulled out to a four second lead by lap nine. 

Dylan Norris took third with six away. 

A final caution flag on lap 13 regrouped the field with Rahmer proving no match for Dewease. 

The ensuing laps showcased a great battle between Norris and Troy Wagaman Jr. for the third spot as the pair repeatedly got by one another for the position only to see the former again reclaim the position. 

Wagaman did finally secure the spot with two laps to go before closing on Rahmer. 

And Wagaman did indeed get by Rahmer for second as the pair raced through turns three and four as they headed to the checkers but Rahmer was able to muscle back in front by the finish. 

Dewease crossed the line by 4.550 seconds ahead of Rahmer. 

It was Dewease’s 105th career victory at Williams Grove.  

Wagman was third followed by Norris and Chase Dietz. 

 In the 358 sprint main, Derek Locke returned to victory lane as well for the second time this season. 

The finish:

Feature (25 laps): 1. Lance Dewease. 2. Freddie Rahmer. 3. Troy Wagaman Jr. 4. Dylan Norris. 5. Chase Dietz. 6. Lucas Wolfe. 7. Jeff Halligan. 8. Brandon Rahmer. 9. Devon Borden. 10. Robbie Kendall. 11. Chad Trout. 12. Kyle Moody. 13. Matt Campbell. 14. Mark Smith. 15. Tyler Ross. 16. Chad Kemenah. 17. Jason Shultz. 18. Bryn Gohn. 19. Brent Shearer. 20. John Walp
