BREWERTON, N.Y. — A pit area full of race cars greeted fans Friday night at Brewerton Speedway, with on-track action featuring two and three-wide racing in every division on Microgame Play and Trade night.
Larry Wight would grab his second win of the season in the Tracey Road DIRTcar Big Block Modifieds, outrunning Jimmy Phelps and Tim Sears Jr. in the 35-lap feature.
Nick Root (DOT Foods DIRTcar Sportsman), Kyle Demo (AmeriCU Credit Union Mod Lites) and Chris Bonoffski (Mirabito Four Cylinder Super Stocks) also picked up feature wins.
Adam Roberts and Max Hill brought the modifieds down to the green, with Roberts grabbing the early advantage.
Roberts quickly built a slim lead over 15th-starting Larry Wight, Hill, Matt Caprara and 11th-starting Phelps.Â
A yellow on lap 14 would slow the fast pace leaving Roberts, Wight, Phelps, Hill and Sears Jr. in the top-five for the restart. Wight would throw a big slider in turns three and four to get by Roberts and be scored the new leader on lap 15.
On lap 20, Wight held a 10-car advantage over Phelps, with Sears, Roberts and Max McLaughlin racing for top five spots. With 10 laps to go Wight, Phelps, Sears, McLaughlin and Roberts were not only racing for the win or a top-five finish, but had to get through heavy traffic as the final laps started clicking off the lap counter.
Just when it looked like Wight was going to victory lane, the caution would wave on lap 33, setting up a two-lap dash to the checkers with a clear track ahead.
When the race went back to green, there was no stopping Wight, as he picked up the big win by a slim 0.211 of a second over Jimmy Phelps. Sears Jr., McLaughlin and Caprara finished third through fifth.
Riley Rogala would lead the opening lap of the 25-lap sportsman feature with Root grabbing the top spot after a caution on lap two and the restart. Root would drive out to a half a straightaway lead by lap 10, as Rogala, Brett Sears, Dorian Wahdan and Kyle Devendorf raced hard in the top five.
With 10 laps remaining, Root lengthened his lead to a straightaway. Over the final laps, there was no stopping Root from winning his first-ever DOT Foods DIRTcar Sportsman feature. Rogala, Brandon Carvey, Sears and Wahdan finished second through fifth.
Joe Isabell would lead the opening six laps of the 20-Lap Mod Lite feature before Kyle Demo would grab the lead on the lap six caution and restart. After taking the lead, no one seriously challenged points leader Demo the rest of the way as he won his third feature this season.
Mike Mullen, Justin Williams, Zack Babcock and Tucker Halliday completed the top five.
Eric Inman and Justin Guyle would lead early laps in the 15-Lap Four Cylinder Super Stock feature before points leader Chris Bonoffski took over the lead on lap four. Once out front, Bonoffski would cruise to his sixth feature win of the year.
Guyle, Francis White, Anthony VanEpps and Eric Inman finished second through fifth.
