Inside Line Promotions – LERNERVILLE, Pa. (May 17, 2016) – Dale Blaney pocketed his 19th top-10 finish of the season last Friday at Lernerville Speedway. However, it was anything but routine for the Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions points leader.

Blaney and his Mainstream Holdings, Inc., backed CH Motorsports team opened the All Star event by setting quick time during qualifying. Blaney then advanced from fourth to third place in a heat race to lock into the dash.

“We qualified well and ran good in our heat race,” he said. “We didn’t have to run first or second, just had to run in the top five. I felt like we were pretty good. In the dash draw we drew a seven out of eight. It was pretty important where you started. I still felt like starting seventh we were going to be ok. It was going to be hard to get to the front, but we could have had a top-three car.”

Blaney finished where he started – seventh – in the dash to line up on the inside of the fourth row for the main event.

“I got in behind Eric Williams on the start (of the feature) and he got into turns one and two on the top and I had a big head of steam on the top,” he said. “He tripped on the cushion and got slowed down. I either had to run into the back of him or I was going to go over the hill and I chose the hill. That put me back to 17th or so. We got ourselves back to seventh. It was a frustrating race because I felt like I had a pretty good car. If we could have got a good start I felt like I could have raced my way to a top three.”

Blaney rebounded from the early miscue to pick up a seventh-place result, which was his series leading ninth top 10 in nine races this season.

Saturday’s All Star race at Mercer Raceway Park in Mercer, Pa., rained out.

Blaney will return to All Star competition this Friday at Lincoln Speedway in Lincoln, Ill., and Saturday at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wis.

“If we’ve been to Lincoln it would have been in 1996,” he said. “I think we’ve won the last four All Star races at Wilmot. That’s a fun place. It always gets racy.”
