WEST HAVEN, Vt. — Jimmy Ryan grabbed the lead on the fourth lap and led the remainder of the 30-lap sportsman modified feature Saturday night at Devil’s Bowl Speedway.
Tim LaDuc tracked him down from 20 car lengths away in the final five laps as Ryan’s engine went sour to pull even with Ryan at the finish, falling about six feet short the checkered flag. The win earned Ryan a guaranteed starting berth in next week’s Vermont 200, but he may defer the position to LaDuc if his engine problems are terminal.
Vince Quenneville, Kevin Chaffee and Justin Comes rounded out the top five.
Troy Audet won the limited sportsman feature and Chris Murray topped the street stock event. Austin McKirryher was best mini stock class.
Kamden Duffy won the mini sprint feature.
