WEEKEND DIRT-TRACK RACING: Danny Dietrich drives to Lincoln Speedway 410 sprint triumph

• Danny Dietrich won the 410 sprint feature at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday.
• The victory was Dietrich’s area-leading 13th of the season.
• Dietrich earned $4,000. Alan Krimes was second and Brian Montieth was third.

Danny Dietrich raced to the $4,000 victory on Saturday night at Lincoln Speedway in the 30-lap 410 sprint feature. 

The win was Dietrich’s area-leading 13th of the season.

Dietrich started seventh and worked his way forward. Alan Krimes led the first 13 laps before yielding the top spot to Brian Montieth. Dietrich got by Montieth on the 22nd lap and led the rest of the way.

Krimes got back by Montieth for second, with Montieth, Ryan Smith and Dover’s Chad Trout completing the top five. Rounding out the top 10 were Lewisberry’s Kyle Moody, York’s Chase Dietz, Freddie Rahmer, Brandon Rahmer and Spring Grove’s Tim Glatfelter.

Chad Criswell got his first win of the season, leading all 20 laps of the 358 sprint feature. York’s Jeff Rohrbaugh finished second, with Dave Brown, Todd Rittenhouse Jr. and Wellsville’s Chris Frank in the top five. Rounding out the top 10 were Doug Hammaker, Dwight Leppo, Hanover’s Dylan Norris, Tyler Ross and Ashley Cappetta.

Billy Brian Jr. led all 20 laps to win the make-up feature for the wingless super sportsman cars. The nonstop event was reeled off in 5 minutes, 52.540 seconds, which broke the existing 20-lap record for the winged super sportsmen. Hellam’s Bobby Weaver set that record in 2006. Brian’s win came over Joey Biasi, Steve Wilbur, Carmen Perigo Jr. and Ryan Wilson.

In the regularly-scheduled 20-lap feature for the wingless sportsmen, Tony Jackson, who had finished sixth in the first race, led all the way in another nonstop event to best Brian. Because one race was run early, with a wet rack, and the second race was at the end, the time was almost 24 seconds slower. Craig Perigo, Kevin Gutshall and Wilbur completed the top five.
