Derek Snyder
Top 3 at Dixie Speedway, Snyder takes points lead
The Vertech Motorsports team traveled to Dixie Speedway to try to take over the overall points lead with the Auto Value Super Sprints, and try to grab their first feature win of the season. The night started well when Snyder qualified Third to fast qualifier Jason Blonde and Second place Ryan Litt. In the heat race Snyder came from 6th position to finish a strong Third. In the feature Snyder started on the outside of the Third row and worked his way up to Third place. Snyder had Third secured until a late yellow allowed Jeff Bloom to take over the position with one lap to go. Jason Blonde who finished 2nd was Disqualified after not making post race inspection, so Snyder was awarded with a Third place finish anyway. This was enough to give Snyder the outright points lead for AVSS. Unfortunately the motor broke a valve on the last lap so Snyder will not be able to make it to Owosso and defend his points lead.
