Sarver, PA (May 18, 2018) Mother Nature lost another battle at The Action Track on Friday night as rain showers in and around the area failed to wash away any part of the racing program. A racy surface that kept it’s grip throughout four divisions of racing and provided three usable grooves proved to be useful.

Three drivers found Terry Bowser Excavating Victory Lane for the first time in 2018 while Michael Norris managed his second victory of the season in the Precise Racing Products Late Models. In the Diehl Automotive Big Block Modifieds, Brian Swartzlander overcame Garrett Krummert with a turn four slide job and held off a hard charging Rex King Jr for his 94th career victory while Jack Sodeman Jr. took an early lead and worked flawlessly in lapped traffic while holding off an oncoming Brandon Matus for his first win of 2018.

And in the Millerstown Pic-A-Part Pro Stocks, Corey McPherson’s patience and persistence paid off as he took a commanding early lead, survived several restarts and held off an oncoming Ryan Moyer to collect the victory.
