Wayne County Speedway ORRVILLE, Ohio (May 23) - After three straight rain outs race fans were more than ready for the high speed "Sideways in the Dirt" excitement only Federated Auto Parts Wayne County Speedway can deliver. Sheldon Haudenschild wowed the fans when he performed a 180 out of turn four and still finished fourth without bringing out a caution in a heat won by Danny Mumaw while Kory Crabtree ran away with the dash. In the Late Models Clint Coffman earned his pole starting position by winning the dash over B. A. Malcuit, Mark Gardiner claimed an exciting heat win that saw Dave Hornikel come from last to steal third from JR Gentry on the last corner. More great racing sure to follow.
The Late Model feature began three wide with Wayne Maffett, Clint Coffman, and Brad Malcuit fighting for the lead in turns one and two, flat out down the back stretch until Coffman gets loose in turn four, Maffett now in control of the lead. To no ones surprise Ryan Markham takes the high side of the track, around Coffman, then Malcuit for second before chasing down Maffett and into the lead by lap seven. The tenth circuit a caution tightens the field and Malcuit uses this opportunity to challenge Maffett for second only to be turned away while Jason Flory makes the pass on Coffman for fourth before another caution period. The field turned loose it's Markham firmly in the lead, Malcuit up high and Maffett down low Flory looks down the middle but thinks better of the move and with two laps to go Dave Hornikel has driven from dead last to steal a top five finish away from Coffman by race end. Markham is a three time WCS Late Model champ and carries sponsorship from CC Performance Racing Engines and Thrifty Muffler.
