WAYNESFIELD, OHIO – You couldn’t have scripted what happened Thursday, June 19 at Waynesfield Raceway Park any better.
Bernie and Betsy Steubgen, owners of Indy Race Parts, wanted to pay tribute to one of their dear friends, Jamie Miller, who owned sprint cars over the years and who passed away in January. The Jamie Miller Memorial race was created and took place at Waynesfield as part of the Overwatch Precision Ohio Sprint Speedweek Presented by Gill Construction featuring the Napa Auto Parts All Star Circuit of Champions Presented by Valvoline. The feature event was paced by the legendary Jac Haudenschild who drove Jamie’s cars off and on for several years.
The outcome? Bernie and Betsy’s car, driven by Park Price Miller of Kokomo, Indiana, snagged the win worth $7,506 – the six was Miller’s sprint car number.
Price Miller took the lead from Kalib Henry on lap six and held off a late race charge from Danny Dietrich in lapped traffic to earn his fourth career All Star win. Last year’s Speedweek Waynesfield winner Cale Thomas came home third with Tim Shaffer and Ryan Smith rounding out the top five.
“This one is for Jamie Miller. Bernie and Betsy were tight with him. Everyone knows how good of a guy Jamie was. He would do anything for you. He did the graphics on my cars and on Bernie’s. This is very special to all of us. My guys made some changes after the dash and this thing drove like a Cadillac,” said Price Miller beside his Indy Race Parts/Garrett Racing Engines backed #71.
For Dietrich, it was another second place run after having been nipped at the line by Thomas the year before.
“Second sucks. I keep running second here. I love coming to the Field…there’s just nothing like it. I thought I might have a shot in traffic but I made one mistake and it cost us,” said Dietrich beside his Weikert’s Livestock, Speedway Cars, Sandoes Fruit Market, Gary Kauffman Racing backed #48.
In the Midwest Thunder D2 USAC Midgets feature, Troy, Ohio’s Bryce Massingill took the lead with just two laps to go and drove to the win.
“Me and Luke (Hall) have battled at everyone of the four races we have had this year. It was a super technical track tonight but JB (Jakeb Boxell) showed me the line to run,” said Massingill.
The All Stars head to Moler Raceway Park Friday, June 20 and wrap up Ohio Sprint Speedweek at Atomic Speedway Saturday for the Dean Knittel Memorial paying $26, 554 to win.
Waynesfield Raceway Park will be back in action Thursday, July 3 for the Let Freedom Ring Night featuring the Great Lakes Super Sprints 360 winged sprint cars, the DIRTcar UMP Modifieds and the Dirt Track Truck Series.
