Sarver, PA (June 23, 2018) The current points leader with the World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series added another chapter in his 2018 story on Saturday night in the 12th annual Firecracker 100 with a dominant performance en route to a $30,000 payday. Madden simply left the field in his wake after starting on the pole and left no door open while running away from a hotly contested battle behind him between Devin Moran, Tyler Erb, Brandon Sheppard and Mike Marlar.
Madden jumped out to the early lead and took firm command of the field in the first 25 laps while picking through lapped traffic with precision while behind him, Devin Moran began making a forward charge from the second spot that would see him come close to the leader's bumper at certain moments, only to watch the gap widen at other times as Madden kept a torrid pace up front while managing his car and tires.
Following a pair of cautions around the lap 40 mark, several potential contenders threw their hat in the ring as Gregg Satterlee, Shane Clanton and Morgan Bagley made their way to the top five but could not keep their momentum once there. Meanwhile, Madden put the eyes of a good many fans on the intense battle for the second position as Moran and Erb traded slide jobs at will allowing Madden to put his advantage to a full straightaway in the second half of the race. Marlar made a late race charge to make his way past both Erb and Moran by the time 100 laps were in the books. But, the night belonged to Madden who took home one of the biggest wins of his career to this point.
Mike Norris, riding the momentum of his Friday night win, led the way for the local contingent with a 10th place showing while Colton Flinner, Jared Miley, and Alex Ferree raced their way into the show. Weekly competitors Kenny Schaltenbrand and Gary Lyle were granted provisionals on the basis of their weekly point standings positions.
In the Uncle Sam 20, Big Block Modified pilot turned Late Model driver Michael Maresca put the field away in quick fashion, taking the $3,000 to win non-qualifiers race.
