Ty Williams Takes First URSS Feature Win At Dodge City
The United Rebel Sprint Series went Old School Saturday night at the DCRP high banks and took the wings off for the second time this Season. It was a night of man handling the racecars around the 3/8’s mile oval and when the dust settled Liberal Kansas driver Ty Williams captured his first URSS Feature win.Wakeeney Kansas’s Willie Wynn brought the field to the green, closely followed by Williams. Going into turn one another car made contact with Brandon Fisher sending the Ensign Kansa driver into a series flips against the fence. Fisher collected Darren Berry and Taylor Velasquez in the incident that brought out the red flag. On the restart Williams jumped out to the lead young guns Tanner Mullens and Taylor Milton hot on his tail. Once again the field was brought to a halt by a flipping Nick King on the backstretch.
When the racing resumed it was the trio of Williams, Mullens and Milton putting on a show as they diced their way through traffic, each trying to find a way around the other. Back in the pack, Paul Flynn and Mike Woodruff worked their way up to the fourth and fifth positions respectively. Williams kept the top spot as Mullens and Milton battled for the second spot as the laps clicked off.
Lap ten saw a spin in turn three that collected several cars. With inclement weather approaching, DCRP Officials chose to throw the checkered flag in order to get the World of Outlaws Feature in before the weather moved in. Ty Williams picked up his first Career URSS win with Tanner Mullens, Taylor Milton, Paul Flynn and Mike Woodruff rounding out the top five.
The Weld Racing Wheels “Hard Charger Award” went to Kris Moore who came from his fourteenth starting spot to finish in the sixth position.
Heat race winners were Taylor Milton, Mike Woodruff and Paul Flynn.
