The weather was sizzling hot for the Dads 4 By Tools & Supply/Hoosier Tire East 4th of July Holiday Spectacular and so was the competition on the track for the 99Rock Weekly Racing Series.
It was Madness Night for the Sabil & Sons DIRTcar Sportsman Modifieds with well over $9,000.00 on the line, four 27 Lap Segments were run to determine the overall winner. Current points’ leader Robert Tucker claimed the overall win on the strength of winning the first and last segment, accumulating 22 points. Going into the last segment Adam Pierson was in the drivers’ seat, having won segment two and amassing only 11 points through the first three segments, but a loose wheel cover forced Pierson to the pits during a caution period to have it removed. He returned but could only muster a fourteenth place finish, giving him 25 points and second overall. Kevin Chaffee was third with 26 points. Tanner Siemons and Jordan Fornwalt completed the overall top five finish.
