Bechtelsville, PA – The 53rd year of Stock Car Racing started at the Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville, PA on April 4th
and it was a bumpy ride for Dan Green in the #46 NASCAR BRC Dirt Late
Model. First time out with the 2015 LAZER X Chassis was in warm-ups and
the car was fast right out of the box!
Dan started 2nd
in the first heat race of the night and after a couple tries at getting
started he was able to move into the second spot at the drop of the
green flag. For 8 Laps Dan battled Kory Fleming in the #704 but was
unable to make the move to take the lead so he settled for second at the
finish. Most of the BRC Late Models, including Dan, were flying Blue
and White ribbons for Child Abuse Awareness. We would like to thank
Wanda Brown of T & W Racing for putting that together.
Feature
time came and Dan started third behind Fleming and Wayne Pfeil #72.
When the green finally stayed out it was Pfeil grabbing the lead with
Fleming and Dan following. On Lap 17 the #16 of Cory Merkel made contact
with Dan going into the third turn and slowed them both down and as
they got going the two made contact again coming out of the fourth turn
with Merkel spinning and Dan hitting the outside wall with the front
bumper. Dan was able to drive back to the pit area but was finished for
the night so the team of Todd Lapp, Jim Alexander, Scott Green, Debbie
Dutter, Cathy Green, Liz Kulp, Bob Higginbotham and Brett Higginbotham
repaired the car to be put in the trailer for the ride home. The
official finishing spot for Dan was 9th, not the perfect way
to start the 2015 season but its only the first race of the summer and
the team is optimistic for a very good season.
