Jerald Harris Jets to Langley Win

 

With Langley Air Force base across the street Jets flying above is the norm Jerald Harris showed he had speed to join the pilots as the fastest thing in town taking the win Saturday night.

Heats started the night with Aaron Leach and Caleb Harris taking the top spots before it was off to the main.

Chris Humblet and Matt Mullins paced the field to green with Humblet out first and Mullins and Billy Hubbard in third.

Humblet was not getting away as Harris joined the front pack but it all went wrong for Humblet as he slowed and headed to the pits leaving Mullins, Hubbard and Harris fighting over the top spot.

Harris got by Hubbard and was working on Mullins as the laps were winding down. With five to go Harris shot into the lead leaving Mullins and Hubbard to fight over second. Harris saved the best for last as he turned the fastest lap of the day racing under the checkered flag first as Mullins held off Hubbard for second.

At the line it was Jerald Harris, Matt Mullins, Billy Hubbard, Daren Bolac, Caleb Harris, Matthew Leach, Jimmy Hubbard, Jacob Wood, John Smith, Chris Ware, Aaron Leand and Chris Humblet.
