ATTICA, Ohio – Zeth Sabo led wire to wire but had to withstand a big challenge from defending track champion Cap Henry late in the race to score his first 410 sprint win of the season at Attica Raceway Park Friday night.
After a crash involving Tyler Street and Bryce Lucius on the opening lap, the Callies Performance Products 410 Sprint 30-lap feature went caution free.
Sabo, who started on the pole jumped into the lead and quickly built a sizeable advantage until hitting heavy lapped traffic just past the half-way point. Henry, who started seventh worked his way to second in the traffic and closed to within a half a second of Sabo with just six laps to go.
Once clear of traffic, Sabo powered away for his second career Attica win over Henry, D.J. Foos, Skylar Gee and Creed Kemenah.
“The car got better the harder I drove it. I saw Cap poke his nose under me there late and I knew I had to get going. Thanks to Rich and Shelly Farmer for giving me this opportunity and Steven and all the guys who work on this thing,” said Sabo.
Henry’s second-place finish brings him closer to Cale Thomas in the battle for the All Pro Aluminum Cylinder Heads/Kistler Racing Products Attica Fremont Championship Series Presented by the Baumann Auto Group title.
Leading and getting into lapped traffic wasn’t the place to be in the Whistle Stop Presents the Dirt Nerds Podcast Powered by Propane UMP Late Model feature.
Todd Brennann led the first 15 laps of the 25 lap affair before getting into a lapped car and spinning. Doug Drown lead laps 16-20 before being collected when a lapped car spun in front of him. Ryan Markham led lap 21 before Kyle Moore drove into the lead on lap 22 and drove to his fourth straight win at Attica.
Moore’s fifth win of the season at Attica is also his 10th consecutive victory overall in 2024 when coupled with other tracks. Markham, Collin Shipley, Mike Bores and Casey Noonan would round out the top five.
Last season’s rookie of the year Blayne Keckler jumped into the early lead of the Fremont Fence 305 Sprint A-main before Bryan Sebetto took the point on lap seven. Sebetto sliced through traffic as ninth starter Dustin Stroup slie into second with just six laps to go.
The only caution of the 25-lap race came after the white flag, setting up a one-lap shoot-out for the win. Sebetto hit his marks perfectly to score his third win of the year at Attica over Stroup, Keckler, Jimmy McGrath and Dustin Dinan.
The victory is Sebetto’s 16th career win in the 305 division at Attica, tying him with Joe Keegan for eighth on the track’s all-time win list for the 305 sprints. It is also Sebetto’s seventh overall victory of 2024.
