HAGERSTOWN, Md. — Scott Palmer brought his late model sportsman out of the garage this week to win the 20-lap feature at Hagerstown Speedway.
The Greencastle, Pa., veteran started outside the front row with Barry Miller on the inside, and never relinquished the top spot once taken the lead.
Miller and eighth-place starter James Lichliter made up ground as Palmer raced through lapped traffic, but not enough ground as Palmer picked up $1,000 and his 19th career LMS victory.
Following the lead trio to complete the top five were Clinton Hersh and Greg Moore.
“It felt really good to stay up front, that’s for sure,” said Palmer.
Joey Zambotti made the tow from Kittaning, Pa., again and won the 15-lap pure stock feature for the second straight week. Zambotti powered past early race leader Michael Warrenfeltz after a mid-race restart on the high side, and never looked back on his way to the checkered flag.
Danny Atherton finished third, Tony Stoneberger was fourth, and Randy Zechman finished fifth.
Kevin Thomas drove the Neff Racing No. 03 Chevy Monte Carlo to a dominant drive in winning the 15-lap hobby stock feature. It was also his 3rd career win. He was followed by Brady Daniels, James Speelman, Billy Ecton, and Jamie Mills at the finish.
Jimmy Iser claimed the inaugural feature event checkered flag in the 20 lap LaSalle’s Sportsman Modified division. Matt Wallace, Scott Daniels, Chris Cogan, and Cameron Campbell completed the top five.
The U-Car feature win went to Matt Worley.
