Shatzer Streaks to Hub City Win
On a warm summer night twenty four IMCA RaceSaver Sprints took to the Hub City oval and Dylan Shatzer was able to streak to victory in his heat and feature. Three heats kicked off the night with Stevie Kenawell, Dylan Shatzer and Reed Thompson taking wins. Shatzer and Ryan Lynn paced the field to green with Shatzer low and Lynn high but before the field could even settle down Lynn would coast to a stop which turned out to be a rear end problem. At the restart Shatzer took off with Reed Thompson and quickly heading to the front Stevie Kenawell. Shatzer was trying to run away as Thompson and Kenawell were keeping in touch but even as traffic came in to play the track was wide with many groves it wouldnt hold up Shatzer. It will all go wrong for Kenawell as he would slide to a stop with a few laps to go giving Thompson one more shot at the win. On the green Shatzer would take off clean and Thompson would stay close but not enough to mount a charge as they shot under the waving checkered flag. At the line it was Dylan Shatzer, Reed Thompson, AJ Barton, John Scarborough, Kasey Weaver, Colton Hendershot, Jerald Harris, Brad Mellott, Donny Hendershot, Alyssa Rowe, Jay Fry, Hunter McFadden, Daren Bolac, Matt Rader, Mia Koporen, Chris Ware, Bill Sheehan, Tony Harris, Ben Miklos, John Smith, Stevie Kenawell, Todd Lynn, Matt Mullins and Ryan Lynn.
