Laura Cornman BEDFORD, Penn. (May 24) - Despite threatening weather conditions, the events at the Bedford Speedway pressed on. The Three State Flyers Series and the Super Sportsman's made an exciting visit to the Speedway Sunday evening. Also accompanying them were the street stock division and 4-cylinders division. With Memorial Day right around the corner, Scott Haus and Tom Decker Jr. each proudly carried our nation's flag while making a lap around the Speedway. The Speedway would like to thank all the men and women who have served and those who are currently serving to protect our country.
Jeff Rine, Greg Fetters, Scott Haus, and Jack Pencil all claimed victories during the Super Late Model Bedford Valley Petroleum heat races. The Super Sportsman division ran a total of three heat races; winners included Dave Socks, Ryan Rupp, and Aaron Eichelberger. Jim Saylor and Daryl Whetstone were the winners of the TC Race Car Street Stock heat races. Bill Noll and Mike Lauffer captured wins during the Thomas Chevrolet 4-Cylinder heat races.
Jeff Rine led the Super Late Model series to the drop of the green flag. Jack Pencil didn't hesitate to seize the lead as he passed Rine between turns one and two on the first lap. Rine, running third, struggled as Scott Haus yearned for his position. Side-by-side action continued throughout the pack. Pencil checked out with the lead and quickly began lapping cars. Wayne Johnson fell off the pace in turn four and the caution was brought out. With twenty-one laps to go, Haus moved into the third place position. While having to face lapped traffic, Pencil continued to lead with Jim Yoder and Haus following closely behind. Haus and Yoder, who were side-by-side going into turn one, clashed. Both Haus and Yoder slid to the top of the track and fell off the pace. Again, Pencil led the pack to the cone. Pencil continued to stretch his lead. Rine followed his lead as Mike Altobelli Jr. trailed behind him. Pencil was first in line to see the checkered flags fly; earning him his second win of the season.
