3 State Flyers Deane Guy Masonry Night: 35 Lap Gene VanMeter Memorial, SS, HS, Mods, U-Cars -August 6, 2010

“DJ Myers Dominates Three State Flyers Action at Potomac”
“Kyle Nelson Soars to Fifth Street Stock Win”
By Doug Watson

Budds Creek, MD- Greencastle Pa.’s DJ Myers was victorious in last Friday night’s 40-lap Gene VanMeter memorial at the Potomac speedway and the $4000 top prize that went with it. In scoring his third career late model feature win at the track, Myers became the ninth different winner of the season in the eleven races for the division in 2010.

Myers and defending track champion David Williams lead the field to the initial green flag of the event. Myers quickly showed the rest of the field he had the car to beat as he bursted into the race lead. Myers would go on to lead every lap of the race but it was far from an easy win. David Williams, the defending winner of the race, hounded Myers for the first twenty-three laps before tenth-starting Andy Anderson entered the picture. Anderson swept by Williams to take the runner-up slot on lap twenty-four and set his sights on Myers. Anderson would get close to Myers on several occasions, but could not make the winning pass and would have to settle for second place money.
“We needed this win in a bad way.” Myers commented. “We’ve really been struggling since speed weeks and I cant thank Greg (Gunter), PPM chassis and Hershey Racing Engines for a great car tonight.”
Timely caution periods aided Myers in his winning run. Yeah, It’s nice to have clear track in front of you, but I knew Andy (Anderson) was getting close there towards the end, but I knew we had a good enough car to hold him off.” David Williams held on for third, Jeremy Miller took fourth and Nick Dickson completed the top-five. Heats for the 24-cars on hand went to Brian Booze, Myers and Williams.
Defending track champion Kyle Nelson roared to his fifth win of the season in the 16-lap street stock feature. Nelson started on the pole of the event and would make the most of his good fortune, as he would lead all sixteen-laps to post his 15th career street stock win. Troy Kassiris took second, Mike Reynolds was third, Walt Homberg came from 12th to collect fourth and John Sellner rounded out the top-five. Heats went to Homberg and Nelson.
In other action, Russell Erwin captured his fourth win of the season in the 20-lap modified headliner, former track champion John Burch scored his first win of the season and career 45th in the 15-lap hobby stock feature and Eddie Chewning annexed the 15-lap u-car feature.
