Conroy Edges Lacoe To Snap Eccles Win Streak In Borgers AllStar Slingshot Thriller. VanVarick Unstoppable in TQ/Asphalt 600 Sprints.
Taylor Eccles’s three race wins streak came to an abrupt hault as Jim Conroy and Ryan Lacoe ducked it out in a all out barnburner at the Borgers 1/7 mile asphalt oval. As the green flag dropped Jim Conroy a Borgers veteran with wins on the Borgers dirt, Ryan Lacoe a rising star who is hungry for his first win, and Johnny Bush who has become a major threat since making Borgers home this season led the field to turn one. Coming out of turn two all hell broke loose as Lacoe got turned sideways in a chain reaction crash that sidelined John Drake and Anthony Peanutbutter Raisner. On the restart it was Conroy, Lacoe, and Bush in a three car battle for the lead. As the battle for the lead raged on Taylor Eccles moved into fourth spot followed by Al Hauptman on lap four. Hauptman got by Eccles for third on lap six as Bush dropped back. As the shuffling for position by the second groups of cars was taking place Conroy and Lacoe were locked in a knock down battler for the lead. Just past halfway Eccles regained third as the battle for the lead intensified. Conroy and Lacoe racing side by side were in a dead heat as Lacoe briefly took the lead but Conroy regrouped and held strong taking his first win on asphalt followed by Lacoe, Eccles, and Hauptman. A much improved James Moyer who ran in the lead group the later part of the race finished fifth.
The Hoosier Racing Tires TQ/Asphalt 600 Sprints still have not found a way to beat Pat VanVarick. Kurt Bettler looking strong in his heat took the heat win over VanVarick giving him the pole for the start of the feature. Bettler, VanVarick, and Geoffrey Sutton charged to turn one with Bettler in command. VanVarick took the lead on lap two heading a four car battler for the lead with Bettler, Sutton, and Rob Vivona. VanVarick opened a small lead as Bettler, Sutton, and Vivona remained locked in battle. With five laps to go the caution flew for a tire that was knocked into the groove which bunched up the pack. On the restart Bettler was on VanVarick’s tail waiting for him to make a false move but it did not happen. VanVarick took the win followed by Bettler, Sutton, vivona, Hoagland, and Ed Willburg.
Pat VanVarick holds a fifty five point leadover Larry Hoagland in points in the TQ/Asphalt 600 Sprints but the story in the AllStar Slingshots is much different. Taylor Eccles holds a seventy eight point lead over Jim Conroy but the battle for third place gets real interesting with Al Hauptmn, Ryan Lacoe, James Moyer, Johnny Bush, Scott Heilman, and Mark Sensenig all within ninty points of each other.
allStar Slingshots…. Jim Conroy, Ryan Lacoe, Taylor Eccles, Alan Hauptman, James Moyer, Greg Zellman, Mike Moyer, DNF…. Scott Heilman, Johnny Bush, John Drake, Anthony Peanutbutter Raisner.
