Winchester, VA- Kyle Hardy scored a flag to flag feature win and last Saturday nights 30-lap Limited Late Model headliner at Winchester Speedway. The win for Hardy, worth $2000, came steering his Mike Hurley owned Rocket Chassis No.99 and would be his 4th overall track score of the season as Kyle has posted a pair of RUSH Late Model victories and now has doubled with the Limited Class.
Hardy drew the second starting spot for the feature and again capitalized as he would go on to pace all 30-circuits over last week feature winner Gerald Davis. Former track champion Wesley Bonebrake took third, Branson Woodward was solid in fourth and veteran Brad Omps came from his 10th starting spot to round out the top five. Heats went to Hardy, Joey Leavell and Michael Carter.
In the 15-lap Pure Stock feature Allen Brannon scored his first win of the season, becoming the third different winner in the four races run for the class this season. Tenth starting Dylan Rutherford took second with Brian Luttrell, Sam Hoffman and defending track champion Walter Crouch completing the top five. Heats went to Brannon and Hoffman.
Defending Hobby Stock champion Jason Wilkins has gotten his season off to a great start as he collected his third consecutive feature win in the division's 15-lap main. Trailing at the finish was Tommy Whitt, Lincoln Sutphin, Randy Linaburg and opening day winner Dylan Beavers. Heats went to Wilkins and Beavers.
Chris Anderson came from his fourth starting spot to take the win over Robbie Carroll in the 30-lap SCDRA Northeast series event, banking a hefty $2500 payday. Opening day Winchester Winner AJ Hoffner was third, Josh Frantz took fourth with 11th starting Justin Williamson rounding out the top five. Heats for the 53 cars on hand went to Mark Wetzel, Robbie Carroll, AJ Hoffner, Chaz Smith, Brandon Gibson Jr and Chris Anderson with twin consolations going to Devon Iser and Tiana Anderson
