In the Shootout event, Krimes started third and chased Ryan Smith until the 24th of 30 laps. Actually, for much of that distance, Krimes had his hands full battling with Hodnett for second. Once in front, the track point leader went on to score his first win of the season, and 17th career win at Lincoln. The win was worth $4,000. Smith, still searching for his first Lincoln win, had to settle for second, with Hodnett in third. York’s Adam Wilt and Dietrich completed the top five. Rounding out the top 10 were York’s Cory Haas, Hanover’s Tim Wagaman, Freddie Rahmer, Siegel and Scott Fisher.
