PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. – Erick Rudolph used the extreme inside groove of the track to complete a lap-32 pass of Jessey Muller to drive away to a $4,000 pay day and guaranteed starting spot in the Outlaw 200 at Fulton Speedway on October 1.
Rudolph and Mueller both started from the fifth row and quickly got to the front in the Big Block/Small Block Shootout. Mueller spent the majority of the race on the extreme outside, riding the cushion, while Rudolph was digging on the bottom.
Mueller mounted a late charge, but fell short when he jumped the cushion in turn one on the final lap. Mueller held on for second over Mike Mahaney, who settled for third. Adam Pierson and Kenny Tremont Jr. completed the top five.
Mahaney was the top finishing 358-Modified driver, collecting the $250 bonus, while Todd Stone and Justin Stone were the second and third finishing 358-Modified, respectively.
Fire Swamp scored his first career DIRTcar Sportsman victory in the 25-lap J&S Steel Sportsman feature event. Swamp pulled a slide-job to shut the door on Travis Bruno with four laps remaining, which proved to be the winning move of the race.Â
