SATURDAY STORY AND RESULTS
Getting the first lap in would be a challenge in the nights 20 lap Mays Tire & Service Center INEX Legends Car Pro feature. The first start didn’t get a lap complete due to a Zach Steele spin. The second start saw contact between the front row of Jason Garrett and Will Geer with both cars spinning. As part of Ona’s rule of a caution on the first lap everyone get’s their spots back, both drivers retained their starting position but Garrett would have to pit to repair his car, putting him to the tail. The next two starts saw bad starts by the new front row of Jake Keaton and Will Geer. The next start would finally be a successful one as Keaton and Geer battled side by side with Geer getting the lead into turn one. Keaton got in the second position but was faced with a lot of pressure by Dale Garrett.
Garrett would pass Keaton and set his sights on Geer. During the races first half, Geer and Garrett would have an intense bumper-to-bumper battle for the lead. As the laps wore on, Geer would start to pull away while a wild battle for third ensued between Matthew Martin, Keaton, and Tyler Martin. The three were all nose to tail lap after lap trying to inch underneath of each other. Geer would lead every lap to come across the checkered flag and take his first career Legends Pro class win! Garrett finished second with Matthew Martin fourth and Tyler Martin using a high side pass to get fourth over Keaton in fifth.
