JAMES HILL GIVES HIMSELF A BIRTHDAY PRESENT ON ELLIOTT FARMS NIGHT
James Hill has been the gold standard in which all other Modified Lite drivers have looked to be across the nation in the past two years. Hill, was able to get the Championship monkey off his back in 2016, and so far in 2017 has been the man to beat again after picking up a win at the first Full Throttle series race in April. He would again carry the momentum into Saturday night’s race and pick up a win in his heat race.
After winning his heat race, Hill would start on the pole courtesy of fast time over fellow heat race winner, Jason Musser. Musser would give it all he had on the initial start, but was never quite able to get to Hill. Cautions would keep erasing the lead that Hill would build up, but he would not let that get to him as he drove a flawless race and went on to pick up his second win on the year.
Winner - James Hill, 2. Tim White, 3. Curt Miles Jr., 4. Nick Nash, 5. Aaron VanVorst, 6. Jason Musser, 7. James Wood, 8. Jerry Barker, 9. Brian Gladden, 10. Kirk Miles Sr., 11. Harry Mears, 12. Ray Gulliver. DNF - Jake Nelson - 9 laps
Delmarva Chargers were on hand Saturday night, and Scott Calhoun would hold off a charge from Jay Sipple and a hard charging Jerry Barker to pick up the win on Elliott Farms night at the races.
Winner - Scott Calhoun, 2. Jay Sipple, 3. Jerry Barker, 4. Derek Swafford, 5. Bud Sipple, 6. Ashley Merritt, 7. Jordan Long, 8. Randy Merritt, DNF - Earl Truitt - 11 Laps, PacMan - 3 Laps, Tanner Marvel - 1 Lap
