National Late Model Series presented by VLR & ERL

03/31/11The National Late Model Series is at Brownstown for the 12th race of the points chase.  The top story this week is the absent 2nd place point’s position currently held by ERL_BLKJAK.

His absence this week puts Simon only 1 point out of second place.  BLKJAK has missed a couple races and the field is catching up.  IFRT_Jim gains and ties VLR_Shock for 5th place while IFRT_14 inches closer to that 3rd spot only 1 point away. 

All the while BLS_34 sits at the top looking down with a comfortable 55 point lead.The evening is not without it's excitement as hot laps brings mayhem when a car looses control and cleans 12 feet of fence. 

The program is halted while repairs are made.  Finally we make it through the evening with heat races, the dash, and B-Main completed, we are set for the A-Main event.

VLR_911 and VLR_JW end in a heated battle swapping the 1st place position several times and finally crossing the finish line with VLR_JW winning, VLR_911 coming in second, and IFRT_Jim finishes in 3rd.

In 4th we find our points leader BLS_34 maintaining his lead.  From there we have BLS_Deadbolt with a solid top 5 finish followed by IFRT_14, Simon, ERL_Turbo, Doit 15, and VLR_DW who's race was shortened with mechanical issues.

Join us next week as the National Late Model Series heads to Sharon Speedway in Hartford Ohio.  Can anyone gain on BLS_34, or will he coast to the championship?  There's a lot of racing left in the season.  Guess we'll have to stay tuned and see.
