Burt Myers Takes
1st Career
SMRS Modified
Win At Caraway |
SOPHIA, NC
(September 10) - Southern
Modified veteran Burt Myers
took the lead from Brandon
Ward late in the race and
led the rest of the way to
claim his first career
Southern Modified Racing
Series (SMRS) Presented By
PASS win Saturday night at
Caraway Speedway.
"Our win tonight was
definitely a long time
coming," said Myers, driver
of the Citrusafe BBQ Grill
Cleaner #1 afterwards. "I
guess it was only fitting
that we would return to
Caraway to finally get our
first SMRS/PASS win. I hope
we can finish the season out
strong and get at least one
more victory."
In
qualifying, Myers paced the
field for the second time
this season with a lap of
15.965 seconds (102.550
MPH).
As an
enthusiastic crowd of fans
and racers celebrated
Caraway Speedway's 51st
anniversary, several drivers
took turns up front,
including Ward, John Smith,
Andy Jankoiak, and second
fastest qualifier, Gary
Putnam. As the 125 lap race
wound down to the finish
Jankoiak and the all-time
winningest driver at Bowman
Gray Stadium, Tim Brown,
waged war for the lead. With
less than 25 laps to go,
Jankoiak and Brown got
together and spun,
collecting last week's
winner at Dillon, Jason
Myers, in the process.
Ward would again move
back up front, but would now
be challenged by B. Myers.
With 10 laps to go, B. Myers
got the advantage over Ward
to move into the lead. B.
Myers would lead the rest of
the way to take his first
series win over Ward,
Jankoiak, Daniel Speeny, and
Chris Fleming. Rounding out
the top 10 were Smith, Zach
Brewer, Brown, Brian Loftin,
and Mike Norman. With his
win, B. Myers moves into the
points lead over John Smith
by just four points with two
races remaining on the
inaugural SMRS Modified
schedule.
The
Southern Modified Racing
Series Presented By PASS
will be in action again on
Saturday night, October 22
at Caraway Speedway with the
Kenny Minter Memorial 125.
