For D.J. Myers, winning at Path Valley Speedway has become somewhat of a yearly tradition.
Competing in last weekend’s Limited Late Models feature, the Greencastle driver cruised to Victory Lane over Codey Breedon and Frankie Gordon. Myers has now won this event in four consecutive years. On the “70J D.J. Myers Motorsports” Facebook page, Myers announced that he “could not be happier with the car and the win.”
Myers was chased to the finish line by fellow Greencastle driver Scott Palmer, who took sixth.
The 270 Sprints feature was conquered by Bradyn Kuhn, of Greencastle. Kuhn began his day by winning the heat race he started ninth in. He followed up that effort by taking the lead in the feature near the halfway point and holding off his challengers for the win. Fayetteville’s Cory Myers finished in second.
The Thunder Cars feature at Path Valley saw five area drivers land in the Top 10: Fayetteville’s Cameron Defenderfer (2nd) and Roger Traxler (9th), Chambersburg’s Kevin Bard (5th) and Rodney Walls (7th) and Hagerstown’s Dan Smith (6th).
BAPS Motor Speedway was also a hot spot for area drivers last weekend. The East Coast Legends feature saw Chambersburg’s Kelby Friese land a runner-up finish, ahead of St. Thomas’ Ryan Walls (3rd), Fairfield’s Lincoln Kearchner (6th) and Seth Kearchner (10th), and Greencastle’s Logan Jones (8th). Tracy Linn, of St. Thomas, won the B-Main.
Finally, at Williams Grove Speedway, Fayetteville’s Lance Dewease showcased his skills in the 410 Sprints, driving to a 13th-place finish after starting in the 25th spot.
