Bechtelsville, PA – The season has just started and Dan Green has 2 top 10 finishes and 1 top 5 so far in features and this week added a heat win. The team is hard at work getting the new chassis to work how Dan likes it.
Dan started on the Pole for the second 8 lap Heat race for the NASCAR BRC Late Models when Steve Gross #62 chose to start in the rear as it was his second start after a 20 year hiatus. Dan grabbed the lead at the drop of the green flag and rode to his first heat win of 2015 over Joe Fanelli #22 and last weeks feature winner Wayne Pfeil #72.
The G & H Motorsports team went to work preparing the AMSOIL #46 for the feature as Scott Green, Cathy Green, Debbie Dutter, Todd Lapp, Liz Kulp, Jim Alexander, Bob Higginbotham, Jesse Bivins and Brett Higginbotham all stepped in and did their part to get the car ready.
Lining up in the second spot, as Gross chose the rear for the feature as well, Dan tried to get the jump on pole sitter Lou Egrie Jr. #4e but was unable to. Egrie checked up slightly and Dan tapped the right rear of him and lost a little momentum. As they ran down the front stretch Cory Merkel #16 looked to the inside of Dan but couldn't get the speed needed to make the pass and ran out of room in turn one and spun out taking several cars with him for a caution and a restart of the 25 lap event. On the next green flag Egrie Jr. had to check up again but this time Dan did not have time to react and drove into the back of him which caused Egrie Jr. to spin. Dan was sent to the rear of the field as a penalty for that contact. The next green was a better one as the Late Models stay ed green with Dan restarting in the 12th spot. The 2015 LAZER X Chassis worked much better this week as Dan steadily moved forward and at the end crossed the finish line in 3rd. He had some great battles with Kory Fleming #704 and Dave Ogin #31 in the latter stages of the feature. With the 3rd place finish Dan moved from 9th to 5th in points.
