In the Sabil & Sons DIRTcar Sportsman Modifieds Mike Ryan found himself out front hoping to score his first win of the season when the rains came in on lap 32. Every effort was made by management to hold on to the track, but the rain was persistent enough to force the checkers to wave. Not knowing who was knocking on his back door, Ryan was happy to finally see the checkers and realize he beat out a couple of heavy hitters as Max Dolliver and Jason Gray were not able to set a challenge before the rain. Matt Lashua, last week’s feature winner made it up to fourth with Jeremy Huntoon rounding out your top five.
