Racing returns to ERP
Cars jockey for position out of turn two at Ephrata Raceway Park.
EPHRATA - After a brief hiatus, cars again sped around the oval at the Ephrata Raceway Park Saturday night.
Spectators were treated to the Jerry's Auto Supply Racing Series featuring the Kim Janke State Farm Youth Hornets, Ephrata Pioneer Muffler II Pure Stocks, Schaeffer Oil Mini Stocks, Pepsi Street Stocks and the Jerry's Auto Supply 360 Sprints.
Before the events began, young race fans were able to ride the "Fun Bus" around the track and through the pits to greet the drivers.
Dylan Heer won the main event of the Kim Janke State Farm Youth Hornets race. It was Heer's fifth main event win of 2013. Rookie Zach Anderson finished second.
In the Schaeffer Oil Mini Stocks Dallas White was able to take the lead from Sid White on the fifth lap and hung on to claim the victory.
Eric Hector won the Pepsi Street Stocks main event handily leading from the fourth lap until the checkered flag was waved.
Austin Weber was able to bounce back after losing a tire during the Jerry's Auto Supply 360 Sprints trophy dash to win the B heat of the main event. It was his first win of the season.
August 3 is $5 night at the races with the Kim Janke State Farm Agent Youth Hornets, Schaeffer Oil Mini Stocks and Pepsi Street Stocks returning. There will also be a King of the Hill event.
