SMITH SACKS
SUPERPRO FOES AT BAER FIELD
Medina, Ohio veteran Jack Smith was
looking at a fourth place finish with 10 laps to go during the
SUPERPRO Series "Aluminum Racing Products 75" Saturday night at
Baer Field Speedway. But an incident between the leaders and a
flat tire put Smith in front for the final ten laps and went on
to victory.
Last year's Rookie of the Year Colin Tolin and "Smooth" Al Cook,
Sr. brought the field to Scott Stovall's green flag with Tolin
taking the lead. Rick Everidge moved into second on lap 13 and
grabbed the lead on lap 21. At the half way point, it was
Everidge, Jason Dietsch, Tolin, Rob Buckley, and rookie Matt
Hall. The order remained the same until lap 55 when Toland went
high and dropped from third to sixth.
Dietsch and Everidge battled for the lead with Dietsch moving in
front on lap 56 with Everidge taking it back on lap 57.
Meanwhile new daddy Rob Buckley moved to third and Smith, who
came from the rear after a lap 16 tire change, grabbed fourth.
The race took a dramatic turn when Everidge and Dietsch got
together in turn 1, causing a caution and sending both to the
rear. Buckley's chance for victory was short lived as a flat
sent him to the pits and then to the rear of the field. Smith
then inherated the lead and cruised the final 10 laps to the
win. Rookie Joe Fadke finished second followed by Toland, Cook,
Sr. and Mike Kugler. Everidge, Buckley, Hall, Royce Mason and
Zion Schaub rounded out the top ten.

Oil qualifying with a lap of 17.589 seconds on the half mile
paved oval. But a crash during hot laps eliminated him from the
feature event and earned him the ARP "Hard Luck" award." Fadke
earned the AllStar Performance "Hard Charger" award and Everidge
grabbed the Penske Shocks "Shocking Move of the Race" with many
saves of a loose race car during the middle stages of the event.
