STEVE SMITH WINS HIS SECOND SUPER STOCK RACE OF THE SEASON!

 

            (June 5, 2010) A very exciting night at Delaware Speedway with a festival atmosphere and lots of activity as we hosted the opening race in the 13-series NASCAR Canadian Tire Series; The Keystone Light 200 presented by Fleetwood Country Cruize-In.  

 

            A big crowd was on hand to witness Delaware Super Stocks complete a 50 lap race, twice the usual length.  Steve Smith proved his season-opening win back in mid-May was no fluke.

            It was a fast race with just a couple of brief cautions; one on lap 14 as Dave Chant took a spin on the back straightaway. DJ Dejesus had to hit pit road briefly but was quickly back on the track.    Jared Shields led the race, even after rubbing the wall on lap 17.   Andrew Perkins’s spin on lap 26 closed Shield’s gap and on lap 32 when Smith made a hard run on turn one, Shields swerved and lost some traction, dropping back to fifth.

            Smith was followed by Jeremy Reid, and Stephen Richmond.

            The NASCAR Canadian Tire Series race, the Keystone Light 200 presented by the Fleetwood Country Cruize-in, will begin at 8:00 pm – a half hour earlier than scheduled due to the threat of rain this evening.  For lap by lap results: http://twitter.com/NASCARHomeTrack   or http://hometracks.nascar.com/node/4715 

            Join us at Delaware Speedway for our next race night, Friday June 11th, sponsored by Country Corners.  We’ll feature the Delaware Super Stocks, Powerade Modifieds and Demar Aggregate Trucks with racing beginning at 8 pm.
