GEIGES WINS THE BATTLE AND THE WAR AT BRIDGEPORT

Bridgeport, NJ - November 21, 2010 - The Tri-State RaceSaver Series concluded its on track activity for the 2010 season on Sunday at the Bridgeport Speedway by crowning Jeff Geiges as its inaugural champion. All Geiges needed to do was merely start the feature on Sunday evening to clinch the title. Geiges would do a little more then just start the feature on Sunday night, he would go on to dominate picking up his third win of the year.

"When we put this deal together, I never thought we would win the championship, I knew we would be fast but not this fast. I can't thank Tony Pietrofitta enough for putting me in his car, there is so many people I need to thank. said Geiges.

Langhorne, PA's Mike McManus started the feature on the point and would take off leading the first six laps with newly crowned champion Jeff Geiges right on his tail tank. The first yellow of the even took place on lap seven when Jonathan Swanson made extremely hard contact with the turn two fence, narrowly missing the pit exit ramp. Swanson would jump from his mangled car and walk away without injury. Following the restart McManus would retain his lead up until he bobbled just a little bit coming off of turn four, relinquishing the lead to Geiges. The events only red flag would then come out on lap nine for a five car incident in turn four where the 67k of Stefanie Palmai would get upside down. Stefanie would get out of the car under her own power but the car would be worse for wear. Green replaced yellow and Geiges would take off and show why he is the 2010 champion, pulling away at will he cruised to his third win of 2010 with the Tri-State RaceSaver Series. Invader Scott Flammer would come home second while Mike McManus, Danny Massey, and Mike Piersig wounded out the top five.

Heat races for the twenty-one cars in attendance went to Scott Flammer and Jim Campbell.
