Westfall Wins at Waynesfield

The Michigan Traditional Sprint Series group would do battle with the Waynesfield regulars in non-wing sprint action to finish off the nights racing program. 31 Cars would show up to compete for their chance at the $1000. Matt Westfall lives in Ohio and regularly competes at Waynesfield. He was not about to let an outsider come in and take "his" money! Kyle Simon always runs well at Waynesfield and tonights inversion draw would start him on the pole of the feature event. Simon would grab the lead as the green flag waved and it began to look as thou Simon might get his 1st win of this season at Waynesfield. Matt Westfall had to start 8th and soon found out that the top side of the track was to his liking. Westfall had little trouble making his way to the front because he was running higher than anyone else on the track and had no one in his line to slow him down. Within 5 laps Westfall has driven around 6 other cars and was challenging Simon for the point. Westfall was in a league of his own as he easily cleared Simon and quickly pulled away from the rest of the field. Westfall would dominate the race and score his 2nd win of this year at Waynesfield. Kyle Simon would finish in 2nd but had his hands full holding off a hard charging Joss Maffet who started the race deep in the pack. The fans and racers were again impressed with rookie Todd Keen as he spent the majority of the race battling in the top 4 positions. Keen faded into the 8th position during the last few laps. Cub Burden had the most impressive drive of the night to finish 9th after winning the 1st B-main and starting the feature clear back in 17th spot. Brandon Ferguson was the winner of B-main #2. Sprint heat winners were Kyle "the kid" Conaway, Dustin Smith, Mike Dunlap, and Kyle Simon.
