Farmington, MO — (June 6, 2015) — As always the crowd favorite 410 Winged Sprint cars always put on a good show and this week was no different. Joey Montgomery won 2 of the 3 events for the night winning his heat race and dash. This put him on the front row for the start of the feature in good position for the hat trick but he didn’t have enough to keep Worley out of Victory Lane. Ryan Kempin took home the checkers in his heat race making Worley work for his feature front row start in the Dash. The start of the feature saw some head games. Everyone knows when Joey starts his style is to drag the brakes and go, but Worley wasn’t having it this week. On the first start Worley went and Joey didn’t, leaving race officials unhappy with the start so they called it back. The front row needs to be side by side at the cone for an official start, it’s up to those drivers to make it work. Two tries and you go to the back and the 2nd row gets to show you how it’s done. So on the second Worley try took advantage of the officials leniency this year and jumped out to an early lead again, Montgomery realizing if he didn’t go he would be in the back and have a hard fight to win, so he stepped on the skinny pedal and Worley’s gamble paid off giving him the lead which he would never give up. Although late race cautions put Montgomery within striking distance, Worley had luck on his side, as Joey Boyd gave Montgomery something to deal with leaving him to cruise on in for the checkered flag. Boyd and Montgomery battled back hard for that second place spot, but it would be Montgomery that would hold him off for second and Boyd would get a podium finish at third. Who is that in fourth? That’s Keith Burch, he has been plagued with oiling issues season long up until this point. The 2k sat out the NSL show to rebuild the power plant, when they tore down the motor it only had 4 quarts of oil including what was in the filter. But Keith’s dad rebuilt the motor and I would say after Saturday night, the oiling issues are over. Coming in at the fourth spot, Keith is always one to worry about. Rounding out the top five is the driver all the girls get giggly about, heart throb Scottie Gretzmacher in the 16G. #teamcarlei brought home his first top five finish in the 410 Sprint car; he proved himself in the Multis and we are sure this won’t be the last time we mention this young gun.
