NOTES:
*The SpeedSTR victory was the second in a row for Billy Pauch Jr., and his third of the season. Pauch Jr. and Brad Brightbill swapped the lead on several occasions before Pauch took over for good with nine laps remaining.
*When the night began, Billy Pauch Sr. and Pauch Jr. were tied for the point lead in the SpeedSTR division. With the win, Pauch Jr. takes a narrow lead over his dad, who finished third in Wednesday's feature race.
*The Wingless 600cc Sprint triumph was Mike Rutherford's first of the season at the JeffreyHogueRealtor.com Action Track USA on the Kutztown Fairgrounds. Rutherford, from Lititz, captured the PA 600 Speedweek race at the Action Track last season, but Wednesday's victory was his first at the speedway since last July. He does have one other wingless win this year, at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway in Newmanstown, on Memorial Day weekend.
*Rutherford powered to the outside of Robbie Hocker to take the lead in the Wingless 600cc main, darting into the top spot as he and Hocker accelerated off turn two and onto the backstretch.
*Ryan Neil was involved in a multi-car incident on the second lap of the Wingless 600cc feature. Neil flipped up and over the turn three wall, landing outside the track. He was uninjured, but his car was heavily damaged. The melee began when Frank Cozze spun and Kameron Morral, with nowhere to go, hit Cozze's front end and flipped. The next five or six cars in the running order went spinning and colliding as they tried to avoid Cozze and Morral. Neil got turned and started to flip at the end of the backstretch and kept tumbling into turn three, finally going up and over the wall. No one was hurt in the mishap.
*Pete Knappenberger, from Emmaus, had not driven a racecar in three years before he returned a few weeks ago to drive Randy Smith's No. 5s.. He shook off the rust quickly, winning Wednesday's make-up feature that was postponed due to curfew on July 9. Knappenberger then went on to finish second to Brett Bieber in the Kutztown Komet 100, the race that honors the memory of Kutztown's own Freddy Adam, the dirt Modified legend who resided in Kutztown. Adam's wife, Mary, was on hand to present the winner's trophy to Bieber.
*35 All Star Slingshots took part in the Kutztown Komet 100, with group time trials necessary to set the starting lineup.
*The full race results press release will be distributed on Thursday evening, July 17.
