Hanover, PA — (June 27, 20145) — The honeymoon continues for Hanover’s Isaac Sneeringer.
Just a few weeks back from his marriage to Monica, Sneeringer claimed his first win of the year in the “358” sprint car feature at Trail-Way Speedway Friday night.
“It’s been a while, and great to get to victory lane,” said Sneeringer upon exiting his DCI Racing/Todd A. Gosnell Paving #19Z, “That 6R is a helluva racer. I was happy to stay in front.”
Sneeringer started third and assumed the front spot when race leader Dwight Leppo spun in turn two of lap 14. He led the rest of the way, with four-time winner and points leader Brad McClelland crossing second.
Third through fifth were Seth Kearchner, 12th starting and hard charger Jeff Rohrbaugh (driving the Shane Smith #00), and Randy Whisler.
It was the fifth appearance of the year for Sneeringer, who thanked father Dave (car owner) and his crew in victory lane.
Tyler Buchenauer was uninjured in a turn two flip on lap three.
Heats for the 13 “358” sprinters were won by Rohrbaugh and McClelland.
