KELLEY JR., O’LEARY AND PADGETT NOTCH TOLEDO FRIDAY NIGHT VICTORIES
(TOLEDO, Ohio - July 5, 2013) - Howard Kelley Jr., Tommy O’Leary and Archie Padgett took feature race wins Friday night at Toledo Speedway on Teamsters Union Night. All military, police, fire and EMT personnel were admitted free as guests of the speedway.
It was smooth sailing for the first 33 laps of the 35 lap ARCA ACME Dismantling Sportsman event, as Greg Stilwell led the first 5 laps until Jim Froling motored by for the lead. Howard Kelley Jr. reeled in Jim as the laps wore down and with 2 to go, the fireworks began. A turn 2 incident bunched the field, putting Kelley on the outside and Froling on the inside lane. Froling spun coming out of turn 2, bringing out another yellow. Jim took responsibility, moving Ron Allen up to second spot. On the restart, another multi-car wreck in turn 2 brought out the red flag, as Norm Lewallen and Mike Young sustained heavy damage to their machines. The inside cement blocks had to be put back in place, causing a delay in the action. Chad Stilwell also retired as part of the wreck. Kelley was able to pull away on the final restart and held on for the victory, his second in a row. Allen was second, Kyle DeLisle Jr. third, Froling came back to grab fourth and Greg Stilwell fifth, followed by Andy Harding, Kent McCloskey, Kenny McKay Jr., Amber Slagle and Dan Grigsby. Froling won the 4 car dash, with heat wins to JJ Haley and McKay Jr. Fast qualifier was Allen with a lap of 17:276.
