Justin Wakefield's been on the verge of his first Pro All Stars Series
(PASS) South win throughout the 2008 season and Sunday afternoon he
sealed the deal, racing under Alex Haase and Jay Fogelman to snag the
lead and drive away from the field in Sunday's South Carolina Clash
125 at Dillon Motor Speedway. Wakefield joins Zach Stroupe, Alex
Haase, Perry Brown and Trevor Sanborn on the list of drivers who've
paid their first visit to PASS South super late model victory lane in
2008.
Alex Fleming proved that he is knocking on the door to victory lane
himself, coming home a career best second after a fierce battle with
Perry Brown (3rd), Jay Fogleman (4th) and PASS South point leader
Corey Williams (5th).
Wakefield set yet another fast time, but the redraw put the Carswell
Motorsports 98 fifth on the grid. Wakefield wasted little time getting
out front and he was the leader of the pack on lap ten.
Temperatures approaching 100 degrees made for a slick Dillon Motor
Speedway, and all the front runners were slipping and sliding,
including Wakefield. Near the half way mark Wakefield lost the top
spot to Alex Haase when he slipped up the race track while battling
Fogleman for the lead.
Haase, Fogleman and Wakefield were lined up first through third on a
lap 89 restart but when the green flew Haase washed up the speedway
with a flat tire, taking Fogleman with him and giving Wakefield the
opening he needed to reclaim the lead and the checkers.
PASS South gets back on track Saturday August 30th at the Caraway
Speedway in Asheboro North Carolina.
