ANDREW MULLINS COMES FROM THE SHADOWS TO WIN ON ELLIOTT FARM NIGHT

 

In the S.R. Pete & Son’s Super Late Models it was a solid field of 18 cars, and none other than, “The Wild Child� Amanda Whaley would lead them to the green. Whaley started the night by winning her heat and shattering the track record by over a tenth of a second. Whaley’s speed would continue in the feature, but she would have her hands full holding off Ross Robinson, Mark Pettyjohn, and Nick Davis.

 

Davis’ XR1 Rocket was on a rail Saturday night, and Nitro Nick was flat footing his way around the ½ mile. Pettyjohn in his Schwartz chassis was right along side as the two would drag race down the straightaway’s and roll together through the corners. On lap 15 Davis and Pettyjohn’s tight racing would come to a head as the two made contact sending Davis rocketing through the infield. Davis’ night would come to and end, Pettyjohn would head to the pits and return, but could not find the speed he once had.

 

After relinquishing the top two positions, it was Ross Robinson that would be the new man out front. Robinson would lead the first two laps after the green flag came back out, but it was the silent assassin, “Rowdy� Andrew Mullins that would be the star of the show. Mullins came out of nowhere, worked around Robinson, and would begin to pace the field. It was a no mistake night for the driver out of Seaford, Delaware, and Mullins would make it a two win night for the family to go along with his Brother-In-Law’s win from the Big Block Modifieds. Heats were won by Whaley and Robinson.
