jason-meyers-wins-the-groveJason Meyers captured Friday night's World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series A-Main at Williams Grove Speedway after leading all 25 laps from the pole for his second consecutive victory at the legendary half-mile in Pennsylvania.

 

“We’ve been looking at the stat columns and the only one we were disappointed with was wins,” Meyers said of his 2011 season. “I think we could have won from any starting position but we had the dash draw go our way which put us up front and we never looked backed. Charlie Garrett, our engine builder, told me earlier today that he wouldn’t mind making it two in a row here and we did it. Shane Bowers recently lost his grandfather so we certainly want to dedicate this one to him and we know he was watching over us tonight. The entire DDNi/Media-Tile/GLR Investments/All-Star Performance team put a great car on the track and I can’t thank them enough.”

 

Meyers held off an early challenge by 18-year-old rookie Logan Schuchart before Schuchart's mount experienced mechanical issues, relegating him to 19th in the final rundown. Summer National winner Greg Hodnett moved to second but did not have what he needed to get by Meyers.

 

“Our car was pretty good tonight,” said Hodnett.”The motor stumbled just a little bit on that late restart and we just couldn’t catch up. We’ll work on it for tomorrow night. That’s where the big money is so we want to have our car in top shape for that.”

 

Fred Rahmer took third with Joey Saldana and Jason Sides rounding out the top five.

 

The World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series duel with their arch rivals the Pennsylvania Posse for the $50,000 top prize in Saturday night's 49th Annual National Open at Williams Grove Speedway.
