Budweiser Night: 35 Lap SLM Bobby Allen Memorial , LM,HS,Mods, U-Cars -August 20, 2010

“Anderson Scores Potomac Second in Bobby Allen Memorial”
“Stevie Long Flag-to-Flag LLM Winner”
By Doug Watson

Budds Creek, MD- Bunker Hill West Va.’s Andy Anderson scored his second late model feature win of the season in last Friday night’s 35-lap Bobby Allen memorial at the Potomac speedway. Anderson’s win came aboard his self-owned Rocket no.25 and was worth a cool $2500 payday.

David Williams and Anderson brought the field to the initial green flag of the event. Anderson would get the jump at the start and would begin another epic Potomac speedway battle. Anderson would lead until lap-nine before David Williams snared the top spot and would lead for the next six circuits. Jamie Lathroum would then make his presence known as he grabbed the lead from Williams on lap-sixteen. Lathroum would lead the next four laps before Anderson reasserted himself to re-take the race lead on lap-twenty. Anderson and Williams would then trade the top-spot several times before Anderson took the lead for good on lap-twenty eight. From that point on, Anderson would have to hold-off 14th starting Daryl Hills to preserve the hard fought win.

“I knew Bobby Allen from a long time ago and It’s a real honor to win this race for him.” Anderson stated. “I used to come down here and help him back in the late 80’s and early 90’s when Booper Bare drove for him, Bobby always seemed to be the first to have the best stuff.” A slew of mid-race cautions kept the field bunched together on more than one occasion. “I gave it away there a couple times on those restarts.” Said Anderson. “I still felt we had the car to beat especially when we finally got clear track in front of us.” Alan Sagi posted his best-ever effort at Potomac placing third, Dale Hollidge was fourth and Roland Mann completed the top-five. Early race leaders David Williams and Jamie Lathroum both retired from the event late in the going placing 12th and 10th respectively. Heats went to Williams and Lathroum.

Mechanicsville Md.’s Stevie Long was triumphant for the second time this season in the 20-lap limited late model feature. Long started on the pole and would lead every lap of the event to take the victory over runner-up Sommey Lacey. Kyle Lear was third, Tommy Wagner Jr. took fourth and Derrick Quade completed the top-five. Wagner took the heat win.

In other action Tony Garber rolled to his fifth win of the season in the 20-lap modified headliner, Bud Pickeral also took his fifth win of the season in the 15-lap hobby stock main and Wil Nelson became the first repeat winner of the season in the 10-lap U-car feature.
