ATTICA, Ohio — Cap Henry has served notice – he is the driver to beat at Raceway Park.
The defending and three-time Attica champion took the lead on lap seven and sliced his way through dense lapped traffic to score his second win of 2025 on the Eric Phillips 37th Anniversary Classic presented by Edward Jones/Mike Neill advisor/American Powersports/Erie Blacktop/Rath Builders Supply Friday, May 9.
Henry drove under Nate Dussel on lap seven of the 30-lap Callie’s Performance Products 410 Sprint A-main and was able to work lapped traffic for his second win of 2025 at Attica. It’s his 22nd career 410 sprint win at the track. Craig Mintz got by Dussel late to take second with D.J. Foos and Bryce Lucius rounding out the top five.
The $4,500 victory also keeps Henry in the driver’s seat to repeat as the champion of the Kistler Racing Products/All Pro Aluminum Cylinder Heads Attica Fremont Championship Series presented by the Baumann Auto Group.
“It was pretty tricky to get around the lapped guys. A couple of guys missed the bottom and I was able to get by them. I didn’t know how big of a lead I had but the car felt good. I never heard anyone outside of us so I just kept plugging away at it. First things first….thoughts and prayers to the Evans family,” said Henry.
The Dirt Nerds Podcast UMP Late Model A-main was a thriller. Mike Bores battled with Devin Shiels the first 16 laps of the 25-lap affair before a caution. On the restart Ryan grabbed second and closed on Bores. Meanwhile, Rusty Schlenk, who has won all four feature events at Attica in 2025 had stayed in the top five the entire race and looked like he would see his win streak come to a halt. A caution with just three laps left set up a dramatic finish.
Bores led the charge to the green while Schlenk blasted from fifth to second utilizing the extreme high line of the track. Bores looked like he had the feature win in sight but Schlenk blast the cushion on the last lap and snuck past Bores for his fifth straight win of 2025 at Attica. Bores, Missler, Casey Noonan and Ryan Markham rounded out the top five.
The win is the 48th late model victory of Schlenk’s career at Attica and coupled with a pair of stock car wins at the track places him third on the all-time win list.
The Fremont Fence 305 Sprint A-main was also exciting. Defending Attica champion Jamie Miller jumped into the early lead but by lap 15 Seth Schneider caught him and the duo battled side by side. Following a caution with 10 laps remaining, last week’s winner Dustin Stroup put pressure on Miller, taking the lead on lap 18.
Miller kept his composure and used the low line to retake the lead with just three laps to go. Miller drove away for his fourth win of 2025 at Attica over Stroup, Schneider, Paul Weaver and Matt Foos.
Miller’s 49th career victory at Attica also pads his lead for a repeat of the Real Geese Decoys/Real Capz AFCS 305 title.
