9.16.17 Lernerville Speedway Results
Sarver, PA (September 16, 2017) Cory McPherson delivered a performance that will be remembered for quite some time as he took two convincing victories in two of the biggest races of the season in the Pro Stock ranks. The five time track champion took the lead from Tyler Dietz on lap nine and never looked back in his victory in the 25-lap Millerstown Pic-A-Part DIRTcar/RUSH Pro Stock main event.
However, one just wasn’t enough for McPherson as he found himself taking an early lead in the Homak Penn-Ohio Pro Stock main event where he used his normal Friday night crate power plant in a field loaded with open motors. McPherson looked to be in command until the second half of the 25-lap feature when the red hot Andrew Gordon drew even with his back bumper and battled for the lead over the course of the last five laps. As lapped traffic approached for McPherson, Gordon looked to have a run going with two laps to go as he made a bid for the lead, but McPherson was able to make a well timed move on top of the speedway to get around two lapped cars, leaving them for Gordon to deal with, and managed to hold him off the rest of the way to collect his second victory on the night.
In Allegheny 305 Sprint Tour action, Jonathan Jones kept the leaders close in the early laps, and picked his spot for a well timed pass of leader Jeff Miller on lap nine and pulled away as he navigated lapped traffic nearly flawlessly as he bested the 21 car field on hand. Meanwhile, Chas Wolbert continued his strong season in the RUSH Sportsman Modifieds by making his way through the field with precision and purpose while taking the lead for good on lap seven and checking out on the 25 car field to collect the second Lernerville victory of his career.
