RANSOMVILLE, N.Y. (July 8, 2022) — It took seven years for Sam McGhee Motorsports’ Parker Price-Miller to secure his second-ever Tezos All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Mobil 1 main event win during a start at Fremont Speedway on June 11, but less than a month later, the Kokomo, Indiana, native is back in victory lane, doing so in a big way for big money at Ransomville Speedway in Ransomville, New York.
Leading just the final two circuits, a slider through turns one and two following a lap 29 restart sealed the deal for “The Law Firm,” edging Cap Henry and Chris Windom for a $12,000 payday. Windom was actually the man in charge when Price-Miller made his winning move, inheriting the lead at the lap 29 restart when race-long leader, Hunter Schuerenberg, cut a tire with the white flag in sight.
The “Northpole Nightmare” Bill Balog was fourth in his Ransomville debut, followed by Wise-Priddy Racing’s Zeb Wise. Windom’s podium result was a best-ever during All Star competition.
“I wasn’t waiting another seven years, I can tell you that,” Parker Price-Miller said in Ransomville victory lane, driver of the Mike McGhee & Associates/XYZ Machining/Lind’s United Auto Glass/No. 11. “Honestly, we weren’t the best car here tonight, that’s for sure. We actually lost our right rear shock after the first lap, but even at that I thought we felt OK. Sunshine and Hunter were probably the two best cars. But that’s why you race the whole 30 laps…we were able to take advantage of that late restart. It’s twelve grand and I’m just happy to get this 11 up front.”
Although in charge for the vast majority of the 30-lap program, Schuerenberg’s campaign at the front of the field was no cake walk. In fact, the Sikeston, Missouri, native was forced to dual head-to-head with defending All Star champion, Tyler Courtney, in close quarters between laps nine and 12. Unfortunately for Courtney, contact with a lapped car on lap 13 forced the Clauson Marshall Racing entry to the work area; he would return to finish eighth.
A two-hour jaunt south will take the All Star Circuit of Champions to Stateline Speedway in Busti, New York, for a $6,000-to-win headliner on Saturday, July 9. An annual destination for “America’s Series,” Vermeer Motorsports’ Hunter Schuerenberg is the defending race winner, outrunning Zeb Wise and Justin Peck for the $6,000 share; it was Schuerenberg’s first-ever All Star victory.
