OTHER DIRT TRACK RESULTS
FORTUNE SMILES ON DIETRICH AT LINCOLN: Current point leader Danny Dietrich has won races in a number of ways this season at Lincoln Speedway, but his win Saturday evening was very unexpected.
Dietrich's sixth Lincoln win of the season was worth $3,200, and came with a big dose of good luck.
Dietrich was running fourth with a little more than five laps remaining in the 25-lap feature when leader Brian Montieth crashed while trying to get by a crashing car. Second- and third-place runners Alan Krimes and Aaron Ott were unable to miss Montieth, and were also involved in the incident. No one was injured.
On the restart, Gerard McIntyre Jr. powered by Dietrich to take the lead, and it wasn't until Dietrich passed McIntyre on the 23rd lap that he was credited with leading the event. Dietrich claimed the win over McIntyre, with York's Adam Wilt in third. Brian Leppo and York's Cory Haas completed the top five. Rounding out the top 10 were Jim Siegel, Brent Marks, Brad McClelland, York's Johnny Mackison Jr. and Ryan Bohlke.
