DANNY BOHN NOTCHES SOUTHERN MODIFIED WIN IN THE “CAROLINA
CARPORTS RACING 125” AT DILLON MOTOR SPEEDWAY

   Danny Bohn from Rockwell, NC outdueled Scott Rigney to claim an abbreviate American Speed Association (ASA) Southern Modified Race Tour (SMRT) win at Dillon Motor Speedway in Dillon, SC last night.
   Bohn and Rigney battled early in the race that was shortened to 75 laps. Bohn led wire to wire but was challenged after each of the first two caution periods. A third restart with 10 laps remaining saw the two leaders bang together sending Rigney into the marbles on the restart handing Bohn a comfortable lead and forcing Rigney into playing defense against fast closing cars of Darrell Krentz and Jay Foley.
   Rigney held on to finish second and take over the points lead in the series. Krentz finished third with Foley and Greg Butcher rounding out the short field.
   Krentz claimed the Carolina Carports Racing “Man of Steel” award with his finish and Butcher earned the Pro Fabrication award with his fifth place finish.
   Economic conditions have forced cancellation of the next two events at Lonesome Pine Raceway and Tri-County Motor Speedway for the series. “We have decided to get our “house-in-order” and concentrate on doing the remaining events on the SMRT schedule successfully. I want to apologize to the fans at Dillon for this event. When we return to DMS in October, there will be some special promotions and a full field of Modifieds for the fans in the area who attended the race last night to enjoy. I also want to thank the drivers who made the effort to support the series”, said SMRT director, Randy Myers.
   Johnny Johnson and James Rogers claimed wins in the East Coast Flathead Ford Racing Association feature for “vintage” flathead Ford race cars. Kenneth Tuttle finished third overall with Ronda McKnight in fourth. Results for the regular Dillon Motor Speedway Super Truck and Street Stock events can be found on the DMS web-site at www.dillonmotorspeedway.com.
   The next event on the ASA / SMRT schedule is Motor Mile Speedway in Radford, Virginia on Friday August 21st.
