8.4.18 New Egypt Speedway Results

New Egypt, NJ (August 5, 2018) – On National Parts Supply’s Scout Night at New Egypt Speedway, Danny Bouc bagged his second Modified feature of the season. The Hammer Sportsman feature was captured by Joseph Brown. Rich Mellor claimed the Larry’s Hot Rods & Harley’s Northeast Wingless Sprint Car main event.

As the 30-lap feature for the Modifieds got underway, PJ Oliver grabbed the lead over Davey Sammons and Bryan Kuhl. By the seventh tour, the top two of Oliver and Sammons were engaged in a duel for the top spot. On the next circuit, Sammons had just taken command when the yellow flag appeared as Oliver appeared to have grazed the inside guardrail in the fourth turn and spun. After another caution on lap nine for a flat on Matt Stangle’s ride, Sammons was still in control with John McClelland and fourteenth place starting Billy Pauch Jr. next in line. Following another caution and restart, Sammons was still setting the pace with Pauch Jr., McClelland, Danny Bouc and David VanHorn in tow as the contest reached the halfway point. Just after the midway mark of the race, Bouc, who started the feature in sixteenth, moved his racecar to the upper groove and the tactical change quickly helped his efforts to move forward. On lap eighteen, Bouc drove by Sammons to take over the front running spot just before the yellow lights illuminated for a multi-car tangle on the track. When the green flag waved again, Bouc remained in first with Pauch Jr. motoring into the runner-up spot for one lap until VanHorn ascended into second on the next revolution. As the event progressed into the final third, the scoreboard showed Bouc in front with VanHorn in second and Sammons in third. With five to go, Bouc was pulling away from his rivals as Sammons was using the high line to reel in VanHorn for second. On lap twenty-six, Sammons swept past VanHorn to retake the spot. Over the closing laps, Bouc continued to increase his advantage to take his second win of the season and tenth of his career at New Egypt Speedway. A strong run by Sammons netted the Modified rookie second place. With VanHorn finishing third, Brandon Grosso was fourth and McClelland came home in fifth. The Modified heat races were won by David VanHorn, Davey Sammons and Billy Pauch Jr.

After taking the lead from Bob Rambone on the second circuit, Joseph Brown survived several restarts in the first half of the 20-lap Hammer Sportsman feature to capture his first career checkered flag. Brown, who was a rookie at New Egypt Speedway in 2017, started the race in third. Pat Wall followed Brown and finished in second place. Third place was taken by Jimmy Amato. Will Dupree was fourth and fifth went to Cale Ross. Joseph Brown and Pat Wall were victors in the qualifying events for the Hammer Sportsman.

In the 20-lap Larry’s Hot Rods & Harley’s Northeast Wingless Sprint Car feature, Rich Mellor took the lead with six circuits to go and survived a late restart to gain his first career victory. Duane Nixon led the field for the opening nine tours before Jermain Godshall gained the top spot following a restart. Using an inside maneuver in the fourth corner, the fifth place starting Mellor hopped to the front of the field on lap fourteen. Mellor repelled a challenge by Lee Nardelli following a caution period with two laps left to snare the win. Nardelli was second with Karl Freyer taking third. Heidi Hedin, the heat race winner, and Brian Spencer completed the top five.
