Columbus Indiana's Justin Lewis grabs first USAC event under the MMSA banner for 2018.
Saturday night Justin Lewis took his OSR Motors, Double L Transport, P3 Grafix, Columbus Collision, Wedon Performance, and Hoosier Speed backed ride into victory lane at Vernon, Indiana. Lewis raced his way to a second place finish in his preliminary to give him a solid fourth starting position for the feature event.
First heat was won by Ohio's Anthony Haas, followed by Lewis, Colin Miller to round out the top 3 Second heat winner Cody Trammell bested last weeks feature winner Anton Hernandez for the top spot with Cory Clay bringing his ride in 3rd.
Setting up the feature event the prelims put Miller and Trammell on the front row with Lewis and Hernandez in row two.
The green flag waves on the feature with Trammell getting the jump on Haas and the field. Clay would use the low line to hold the top spot for several circuits. On lap 7 Lewis would go top shelf and take the lead. Lap 10 caution would fly for a spin in turn two. With the cars restacked Lewis had to defend the lead from Trammell and Clay for the remaining laps. Lewis would do just that takingthe high side, riding the berm, taking in the cushion to claim his first feature win of 2018.
Top ten were, Lewis, Clay, Trammell, Haas, Miller, Chambers, Coffey, Arvin, Barr, and Hernandez.
Every entry Saturday night was capable of taking home the win, for each and every car has won an event in their own rights, by way of a championship, feature, or some major event.
Great to have top quality teams on hand.
Next event will be at Lincoln Park Speedway as a show with The 31st running of the Putnamville Clash paying $3100 for the non wing 410 sprint cars Saturday May 5th.
