Finocchario Goes Four In A Row With Latest NYSS Win
By Tom Fecteau
July 28th, Spencer Speedway - Lazzaro Performance Night saw 27 NY Super Stock drivers take the green flag for another night of slam bang action. Several cautions and one red flag would once again test drivers and crews to try and keep Chris out of the winner’s circle. With Nate Peckham and Dylan Bancroft pacing the field, the 25 lap main event got off to a roaring start with 4 laps of great side by side racing before the first caution for two disabled cars. The restart went for one and a half laps before Willie Strusz made contact with Peckham and as the front runners spun the rest of the field scrambled as they were flying full throttle. No one was hurt but 7 competitors would receive substantial damage eventually claiming 5 of them by nights end. All this action put Billy Coyle in the lead with Chris not far behind. After 3 short cautions, racing resumed with Finocchario taking the lead on Lap 11. One more quick caution set the race up for 9 laps of green flag action. With wounded competitors leaking fluid, the track became ever more slippery with 2 late cautions closing out the racing action. Once again Chris had dodged mayhem and a tough track to claim victory #4 of the season and showing everyone, he is the man to beat as we near the Dave London Memorial-DLMX. Last year’s DLM winner Billy Coyle finished a strong 2nd, with consistent Chris Vogler close behind. Robert Fink and Steve Pesarek completed the top 5.
NYSS race #6 will be Friday, August 11 at Spencer Speedway. This will be the final chance for teams to test their cars before the 50 Lap DLMX on August 25th and can anyone keep Chris out of the winner's circle?
Heats were won by Josh Schoonmaker, Finocchario, Vogler and Strusz
