Lake, Barley & Wilson Star on Bridgeport Equipment Night at the Bullring
(Middlebourne, WV) Night #3 of the 2016 racing season at the Tyler County Speedway would see a bulging pit area of nearly 140 cars take to the high banks of the ‘Bullring’. It was Bridgeport Equipment Night at the speedway as all area 4H & FFA members were greeted to a thrilling night of edge of your seat motorsports entertainment.
In the J&R Excavating Super Late Model main event presented by Midcap Land & Timber it was Uniontown, PA’s 14 year old Michael Lake aboard the Bobby Lake owned High Gear Speed Shop Longhorn Chassis picking up his first ever Tyler County Speedway feature win. Lake’s performance would put the Pennsylvania hotshoe into the Tyler County Speedway record books by becoming the youngest driver to capture a Super Late Model feature event at the ‘Bullring’. Lake would also punch his ticket into the season ending Sunoco Winners 5K Shootout becoming the third different feature winners in as many events at the competitive ‘Bullring’. Following Lake across the stripe was Kyle Thomas, Derek Doll, Sonny Conley and Daniel Hill.
Aaron Barley of Mt. Hope, WV would score his second consecutive FASTRAK Late Model feature event piloting the Smoker Friendly/Twisted Tea/ Bojangle’s Rocket. A star studded 22 car FASTRAK Late Model field would see Barley cross under the Peoples Bank Flagstand ahead of Troy Frazier, Danny Thomas, Ryan Payne and Gary Dalton.
A bevy of 22 Two Brothers Motorsports AMRA Modified’s would take flagman Todd Gorrell’s green flag and it would be the familiar unsponsored blue #20 of Sistersville, WV’s Mike ‘Bird’ Wilson grabbing another checkered flag in his illustrious open wheel modified career. Wilson would hold off Shawn Jett at the line while a third and fourth battle would see James Dennis outduel Rick Venham with Donnie Nething rounding out the top five.
Once again a double feature format in the Gear 2 EDGE Hotmods presented by Poske’s Performance Parts would see a repeat of last Saturday’s action with Middlebourne, WV Hotmod veterans Mick Baker and Travis Thomas picking up wins. Baker would chauffer the TW Auto Detailing Gear 2 Graphics Orange #47 ahead of Martin Lamm and Brian Clegg in feature #1. It was defending track champion Travis Thomas aboard the Sigler Fabrication/ Jackson Trucking/ Big Daddy Auto Body #18 finishing ahead of Lou Ennis and Darren Glover in Feature #2.
A battle of 99’s would see Tyler Riggs of New Matamoras, OH outduel last week’s feature winner Daniel Eddy to secure his first feature win of the 2016 season. Riggs and Eddy would outlast Josh Baldwin, Ryan Saffell and Zak Kimbrew for the win.
Perennial track champion Donnie Wamsley would secure victory #1 of the early season campaign in the 4 Cylinder division by beating Scott Critchfield and Sambo Cokeley.
