Frenchy Sweeps

Nineteen racers were on hand Friday night at The Cave Speedway with Brad "Frenchy" Bennington setting fast time of 2.316 to earn the pole position in the first heat, which he would go on to win. Other heat winners for the night were Dwain Welsh, JP Welsh, and Tyler Williamson. The Mains were won by Greg Poffenberger in the D, Lee Canfield in the C, and Mikey Franklin winning the B taking Andrew Tyson into the feature. When the green flag dropped on the feature, Frenchy left little doubt about who was gonna be the man to beat as he led flag to flag for his third win of the year. The finishing order was: Bennington; 2nd JP Welsh; 3rd Mikey Franklin; 4th Tyler Williamson; 5th Andrew Tyson; and 6th Dwain Welsh. The "Bentonville 200", the final trophy race of the season, will be a double point event scheduled for Friday, March 16th. The following week the last race of the season for Late Models and Pure Stocks will be run on March 23rd.
