Shiflett Tops Pure Stocks


Joe Shiflett picked up his first Pure Stock win Friday night at The Cave Speedway using his fast time to start on the pole in Heat #1 and would go on to pick up the win. Heat #2 went to Jeremy Tinsman with JP Welsh taking Heat #3 after a see-saw battle with Mikey Franklin. The C-Main was won by Greg Poffenberger with Mike Franklin winning the B-Main taking Poffenberger and Brad "Frenchy" Bennington to the feature.


Franklin would jump out in the lead early until Shiflett would take over on Lap 8 and lead to the checkers. Finishing order was: Shiflett; 2nd Brad "Frenchy" Bennington; 3rd JP Welsh; 4th Mike Franklin; 5th Greg Poffenberger; and 6th Jeremy Tinsman. The Pure Stocks will have next week off but will return for their final race of the season on Friday, March 23rd.
