Weyant tops WAR at Springfield
Springfield, MO (August 27, 2016)-Taking over leader Terry Babb on lap nine, Korey Weyant went to his fourth Boss Chassis WAR Series win of the season at Springfield Raceway Saturday night.
Babb led the field to the green flag as he was heavily pressured by outside starter Layne Himebaugh on the original start. Before a lap was in the books, the yellow would come out for Steve Mahannah who spun in turn one.
Babb again would set the pace with Himebaugh in second and Weyant in third.
With one lap in the books, the red would come out for Katlynn Leer, who made contact with Clinton Boyles. Boyles would straighten his car out while Leer's car dug in and went into a wild series of flips down the frontstretch before coming to rest in the infield near turn one. Also involved was Pete Palazzolo, who would restart at the tail.
When the field went green, Babb again set the pace with Himebaugh and Weyant trailing.
With a handful of laps in the books, Weyant would move past Himebaugh to move into second.
With Babb nearly a straightaway ahead, Weyant would start to run him down.
On lap nine, Weyant made the pass of Babb in turn two and took over the lead.
Lap by lap, Weyant set an aggressive pace as his lead grew to over a straightaway. Weyant worked lapped traffic to perfection as he would lap up to fifth place in his Ealey Transportation/Mahan's Fiberglass/Moore Automotive Eagle with an Automotive Machine engine under the hood. Babb was second in his KCBJ Motorsports/ Faith Flatout Ministries Maxim with Stanton-All Pro power. Moving up to third was Craig Carroll in the Risley Trash Service/Get R Done Tree Service/ Hesselbein Tire XXX with Risley power. Himebaugh was a season best fourth in the Risley Trash Service/Hesselbein Tire/Eaton Industrial Coatings XXX with Risley power. Rounding out the top five was Boyles in the Jesse Hockett Racing/Lucas Oil/Rod End Supply/Rockwell Security Maxim with RMS power. TJ Muths was sixth while Palazzolo came back from the tail to seventh. Chris Parkinson, Michael Tyre, and Kenny Potter rounded out the top ten.
Babb and Weyant were heat race winners for the sixteen car field.
The Boss Chassis WAR Series will next be in action on Sunday September 4th at the Bethany Fairgrounds Speedway as they make a return for the Northwest Missouri State Fair race for the first time since 2013.
