DAGGETT HOLDS OFF HORSTMAN FOR 4TH WIN

LAKE ODESSA, Mi. (June 15, 2018) Dustin Daggett is now two-for-two in Great Lakes Super Sprints competition at I-96 Speedway following his victory on Friday. Daggett from nearby Portland, Michigan took the lead from Gregg Dalman held off Jared Horstman and Max Stambaugh for the victory. The victory was Daggett’s fourth of the year with GLSS.

Danny Sams, III and Gregg Dalman started on the front row for the 25-lap main event. After a caution during the initial attempt to start the feature when last week’s GLSS feature winner at Plymouth Speedway Phil Gressman backed into the wall in turn four Sams and Dalman diced back and forth for the lead with Sams before Dalman took over the top spot.

Daggett moved into second position on lap four and began his pursuit of Dalman for the top spot. Dalman was able to hold off Daggett’s challenges until lap seven when Daggett got a run off the second corner to take the lead.
By lap nine Horstman, who started 9th, moved into third and started to put pressure on Dalman for second. By lap 12 Horstman moved into the runner up spot around Dalman and closed in on Daggett through slower traffic. Just as it appeared the race for the lead would be hotly contested through slower traffic red flag came out for Bill Jacoby who tipped over in turn three. Devon Dobie, who was running fifth at the time, also suffered damage in the incident. Both drivers had to return pit side.

Daggett opened his lead to five car lengths after the restart while Max Stambaugh charged from fifth to third position through turns one and two. Horstman and Stambaugh both were starting to close on Daggett when another caution flag came out when Matt Foos slowed with mechanical issues (broken rear axle) between turns one and two.

Horstman stayed with Daggett after the restart but was never able to get close enough to mount a serious challenge as Daggett went on to victory. Horstman took runner up honors while Stambaugh, Dalman, and Sams. Receiving the Engler Machine & Tool Hard Charger in the feature was Linden Jones, who moved up 8 spots, finishing 7th.

In qualifying, Horstman was fast qualifier turning a 14.667 second lap. Daggett, who was in the same group as Horstman, was 2nd fast qualifier at 14.691 seconds. Linden Jones, Gressman and Brett Mann rounded out the top 5 qualifiers.

In the Kistler Engine Heat Race #1, Dobie went green to checker for the heat win, with Stambaugh, Horstman and Mann grabbing the other transfer spots.

Ridenour, starting 3rd in the Campbell Performance Heat Race #2, jumped out and took the checkered flag, with Daggett, Joe Swanson and Foos securing their transfer spots to the A-Main.

The Kistler Racing Products Heat Race #3 was commanded by Joe Geibe from green flag to checkered. The battle was for second with Sams and Andy Teunessen swapping spots ending with Sams securing the re-draw spot and Teunessen and Jones punching their card to the Feature.

Dalman, starting in the second row of the Specialty Fuels & Logistics Heat Race #4 took the checkered flag, with Gressman, Kyle Poortenga and Chris Pobanz making the last 3 transfer spots into the A-Main.

In the heavily contested B-Main, Andrew Scheid took the checkered flag in the 12 lap consolation race. Jacoby took 2nd, and with a late caution, Brad Lamberson (who had started 8th) made a last minute charge and beat his brother to the finish line grabbing 3rd while Jared Lamberson finished 4th, grabbing the last transfer spot to the Feature.
