Abbottstown, PA (September 14, 2024) โ In an intense battle on the clay, Freddie Rahmer took home the $7,000 prize in the Rack Daddies Rumble presented by L&M Tire and Wheel, scoring his first win of the season at Lincoln Speedway in a dramatic 33-lap sprint car showdown.
The top 10 spots of the feature line-up were set with an Australian Scramble that put Lucas Wolfe on the pole, and it was Wolfe who led the field into turn one, with Rahmer hot on his tail. A red flag quickly flew as Kody Hartlaub, Devon Borden, and Dylan Norris were involved in an opening-lap incident, leading to a complete restart.
On the restart, Rahmer got a better jump but Wolfe maintained the lead, only for Rahmer to make a perfectly timed slider in turn four, taking the top spot and leading the first lap. Danny Dietrich swiftly moved into second, leaving Wolfe to fend off a charge from Chase Dietz, who eventually took over third place.
As the laps ticked by, Rahmer began to extend his lead, pulling ahead by 2.7 seconds by lap 8 as he encountered lapped traffic. Behind him, Dietrich and Dietz engaged in a heated battle for second, with both drivers gradually closing the gap on Rahmer as they navigated the slower cars.
A caution flag on lap 18, due to a medical emergency in the pits, reset the field and gave Dietrich and Dietz a shot at the lead. On the restart, Dietz found success by going to the top of the track, taking second place from Dietrich. Though Dietrich attempted to regain the position, Dietz held strong, holding on to the runner-up spot.
With seven laps remaining, Rahmer once again encountered lapped traffic, and Dietz started closing the gap, bringing the race within .785 seconds with five laps to go. Dietrich gained some momentum and reclaimed second late in the race. However, Rahmer kept his composure through the traffic and managed to hold off Dietrichโs late charge to take the checkered flag.
Rahmerโs victory in Saturdayโs Rack Daddies Rumble makes him 3-0 in the event, having won all three Rumble features since itโs inception in 2022.
Best Claims Victory in MacMor Construction Summer Series Finale; Seth Schnoke Secures Championship Title
The MacMor Construction Summer Series Finale at Lincoln Speedway lived up to expectations with an action-packed 25-lap feature, as Andy Best emerged victorious in the feature, while Seth Schnoke clinched the Summer Series Championship title after a stellar season. It took eleven features to have a repeat winner in the 358 division this season, with Best becoming the first to visit victory lane twice.
The race began with Tyler Ulrich seizing the early lead out of turn two, while Mike Bittinger and Best engaged in a fierce battle for second. Chris Frank quickly entered the mix, challenging Best for third before the action was halted by a yellow flag on lap 4 when Steve Owings came to a stop exiting turn two.
On the restart, the top five cars were Ulrich, Bittinger, Best, Frank, and Cody Fletcher. Best immediately applied pressure on Bittinger, showing his nose on the outside and ultimately securing the second spot at the line on lap 5. A second caution came soon after when Brayden Meckley spun in turn 4, bringing out a single-file restart.
After the restart, Doug Hammaker came alive, using the high line to get past Fletcher for fifth before quickly advancing past Frank to take over fourth. By lap 8, Hammaker had surged into third, setting his sights on Bittinger, who continued to lose ground to the leaders.
Another yellow on lap 9, this time for Justin Foster falling off the pace, slowed the action and set up a critical restart with Ulrich leading Best, Hammaker, Bittinger, and Frank. Meanwhile, Schnokeโwho had already captured a feature win earlier in the nightโwas quietly working his way into the top five, looking to end his championship run on a high note.
Frank made a move to reclaim fourth, passing Bittinger, as the battle up front intensified. Best closed in on Ulrich at the halfway mark, relentlessly applying pressure for the lead, while Hammaker looked to challenge Best for second, utilizing the top side of the track.
With seven laps remaining, Best made his move, slipping by Ulrich on lap 18 to take the lead. Hammaker continued his charge, aiming to overtake Ulrich for second as lapped traffic came into play with four laps to go.
With his solid performance throughout the series, Seth Schnoke secured the MacMor Construction Summer Series Championship, capping off a memorable night at Lincoln Speedway.
Seth Schnoke Wins Thrilling Makeup Feature at Lincoln Speedway; 10 Winners in 10 Races
The makeup feature from September 1, run on September 14 at Lincoln Speedway, saw intense competition as Seth Schnoke came out on top in a thrilling 20-lap race, making him the 10th different winner in 10 races this season.
James Roselli grabbed the early lead at the flagstand, but Schnoke powered out of turn two to take command. However, a yellow flag flew almost immediately on lap 1 after Ashley Cappetta got sideways in turns 3 and 4, forcing a complete restart.
On the restart, Roselli once again led at the line, only for Schnoke to take control exiting turn 2. Another caution followed, this time for a multi-car incident involving Logan Rumsey, Frankie Herr, and Preston Lattomus in turn 2.
The third restart saw a single-file lineup, and Roselli initially held the lead. Schnoke made a bold move on the high side, finally edging Roselli at the line to take the lead for good. Meanwhile, Tyler Ulrich was locked in a fierce battle for fourth with Cody Fletcher, who eventually took the spot. Ulrich, however, refused to back down, staying close behind.
As Schnoke and Roselli pulled away from the field, Dylan Norris began his charge, working his way past Ulrich for fifth. By the halfway point, Chase Gutshall closed in on Roselli, looking to challenge for second with Fletcher hot on his heels.
On lap 12, Norris made his way into fourth, with Owings following suit as Ulrich got caught up in the cushion in turn 4, dropping back in the order. Schnoke approached lapped traffic with six laps remaining, and a fierce three-car battle for second ensued, with Roselli fighting to hold off Gutshall and Norris.
As the laps wound down, Norris advanced into fourth, and Owings began applying pressure, looking for a way around him for a top-five finish. However, on the final lap, Roselli slowed dramatically, dropping to fifth as Schnoke took the checkered flag.
Schnokeโs win not only kicked off an action-packed night but also continued Lincoln Speedwayโs streak of having 10 different winners in 10 races, showcasing the depth of talent on display this season.
