PAUCH JR. WINS THE VAHLCO WHEELS MODIFIED FEATURE AT NEW EGYPT SPEEDWAY

New Egypt, NJ (April 14, 2019) – Billy Pauch Jr. won the Vahlco Wheels Modified feature at New Egypt Speedway. The Delaware Auto Exchange Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series main event was claimed by Bryant Davis. Jim Housworth was the victor in the Hammer Sportsman feature. The Street Stock contest was taken by Bill Liedtka. Ryan Godown Jr. was the victor in the Lyons Construction/Metal Fab Rookie Sportsman race.

After the original start of the 30-lap Vahlco Wheels Modified feature was marred by a caution, Cale Ross rocketed to the front on the ensuing green flag with Brian Papiez next in line. As the top two of Ross and Papiez were pulling away from the pack, Mike Butler was continuing his march to the front as the tenth place starter slipped into third place on lap five. Following the second and final yellow flag of the race on the eighth circuit, Ross was still on top with Butler nudging past Papiez for second with sixteenth place starting Billy Pauch Jr. jumping into fourth. One lap later, Papiez regained the runner-up spot. At the midway point of the race, Ross had a half-straightaway advantage over Papiez. Two circuits later, Pauch. Jr. was just in the process of driving by Butler for third when the second place running Papiez pulled into the infield and out of the contest. Now with Pauch Jr. in second and in hot pursuit, Ross was beginning to encounter the tail end of the field with eleven laps remaining. By the twenty-second tour, Ross’s margin over Pauch Jr. had evaporated to a mere two car lengths in heavier lap traffic. Over the next few tours, Ross had Pauch Jr. on his bumper. After a brief side-by-side duel, Pauch Jr. scooted past Ross with only five revolutions left in the race. Over the final laps, Pauch Jr. increased his lead and went unchallenged to grab the checkered flag for his twenty-second career Modified win. Ross held off Butler to take second. With Butler in third, Ryan Krachun finished in fourth after starting the race in eleventh. Brandon Grosso, who started the race in thirteenth, came home in fifth. The winners in the Vahlco Wheels Modified heat races were PJ Oliver and Brian Papiez.

In the 20-lap Delaware Auto Exchange Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series main event, Bryant Davis motored by the early leading Larry McVay with seven laps remaining to gain the victory. The runner-up spot went to Rick Stief. Jason Dunn finished in third after starting the contest in eleventh. Delaware Auto Exchange Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series rookie Chuckles Stone came from nineteenth to complete the race in fourth. Eighteenth place starting Ricky DiEva completed the event in fifth. Bryant Davis and Randy Wilbert won the Delaware Auto Exchange Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series qualifying events.

In the originally scheduled 20-lap Hammer Sportsman feature, Jim Housworth was declared the victor after the time limit was reached and eight laps were completed. The victory was the fifth Sportsman win for Housworth at New Egypt Speedway. Second place was captured by JT Trstensky. Twelfth place starting Steve Davis finished in third. Joseph Brown and John Criscione filled out the top five. JT Trstensky and Steve Davis were victorious in the Hammer Sportsman heat races. The consolation contest was captured by Brad Roberts.

For the twenty-seventh time in his career, Bill Liedtka took top honors in the 15-lap Street Stock feature. Liedtka, who was involved in a second lap caution with Jon Meyer, roared back through the field and took the lead from Brian Ludwig on the seventh tour. Meyer slipped by Ludwig on the final circuit to take second. With Ludwig crossing the line in third, Billy Wroble was fourth and Vern McLaughlin finished fifth.

After taking command from Jim Van Wickle on the fourth circuit, Ryan Godown Jr. ran away from the field to win his second consecutive 8-lap Lyons Construction/Metal Fab Rookie Sportsman race. The runner-up position was claimed by Anthony Tramontana Jr. Third place went to Vinny Troia. DJ Hunt and Ryan Krushinski completed the top five.
