Bergeron leads green to checkered to win at Williams Grove!!
- Details
The VLR 360 Sprints rolled into Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, PA for the first ever official VLR 360 sprint car race. Sam Locuson would take the pole with a lap of 18.069. Team VLR drivers Josh Weems, Howard Weaver and Austen Semmelmann rounded out the top four qualifiers. Locuson would unfortunately fall to 6th in a wildly contested heat one. Bergeron would muscle his Ratbag sponsored 360 sprint car to the win followed Brandon Smith, Austen Semmelmann and Derek Line. Eric Hough, after failing to master the science of a qualifying lap, muscled his way to the win in heat 2 followed by Josh Weems, Tommy Champagne and Timothy Gustin.
The A-Main event began rather peacefully with Bergeron pulling out to about a one second lead followed by a determined Hough! Howard Weaver would see his race begin from the pits, as his crew members mistakenly fueled the car with diesel prior to the start of the race causing his car to mysteriously flip over on its top before the green flag even waved. Weaver promptly fired his entire crew and crashed soon afterwards with nobody available to repair his car.
