SEIDLER OUTDUELS KELLER FOR VICTORY
Jamestown’s Scott Gartner led from the pole in the IMCA Modified feature. Gartner pulled away as the racing was heating up behind him between Travis Tooley, Quentin Kinzley, Mark Dahl and Jason Wolla. Drivers were slicing and dicing for position as the track was wide and racy. A mid-race caution erased Gartner’s large lead over the field. On the restart, Gartner, Kinzley and Dahl raced three wide for the lead as Tooley, Wolla and Marlyn Seidler raced three wide for fourth. Seidler, who started ninth, shuffled into the fourth position and wasted no time tracking down the leaders. Kinzley led briefly before Dahl claimed the top spot. Seidler made it a three car battle for the lead and motored into first place. Jeremy Keller, who started 11th, followed Seidler through the field and started to reel him in when Seidler started catching lapped traffic. Keller was all over Seidler’s rear bumper and coming to the checkered flag, Keller threw a Hail Mary pass for the win but slid up the track, allowing Seidler to cruise by and grab the victory. Mark Dahl finished third ahead of Quentin Kinzley and Jason Wolla.
