MICHAEL CARBER AND DANNY HAGER WIN AT WILLIAMS GROVE
MECHANICSBURG, PA – Michael Carber won the 25-lap sprint car feature Friday night at Williams Grove Speedway and Danny Hager won the 20-lap super sportsman feature.
Carber started on the front row and led every lap of the main event to score his second victory of the season.
Steve Buckwalter started third and took the runnerup spot from Alan Cole on lap 12. Following a 15th lap restart Buckwalter made a strong bid for the lead as he tried to slide in front of Carber between turns one and two.
Greg Hodnett, who started 12th, made it a three car battle for the lead entering the third corner, but Carber used an outside move exiting turn four to beat Buckwalter and Hodnett to the line.
Once again safely in front of the field, Carber pulled away for the $3000 victory.
Buckwalter turned in his best effort of the season to finish second with Hodnett third and Jeff Shepard fourth.
Fred Rahmer, who started 9th, completed the top five.
Doug Esh earned the Magoo’s Auto Transport Hard Charger award after moving from 18th to 6th.
Lucas Wolfe, Mark Smith, Lance Dewease and Todd Shaffer rounded out the top ten.
Rahmer was able to gain on Shaffer in the points race for the Cindy Rowe Auto Glass track championship.
Heats for the 30 sprint cars in competition were won by Rick Lafferty, Ryan Bohlke and Alan Cole. Mark Smith claimed the consolation race.
Hager started seventh in the sportsman feature and took the lead from Eric Eckert with an inside move exiting the fourth corner on the sixth lap.
Despite a late charge by Rich Eichelberger, Hager prevailed for his first victory of the season and the second of his career at Williams Grove.
Eichelberger finished second followed by Gregg Foster, John Stehman and Duaine Smith.
Lanny Hake, Lyle Stroman and Steve Fannasy won heats for the 31 super sportsman cars in the pit area. Jake Raudabaugh copped the consolation race.
