Jimmy Weller Breaks Through at SoBo for
First PASS South Victory |
Naples, ME 8/29/10- Pro All Stars Series (PASS)
South fans that have followed the series’ super late
model cars and stars over the past two seasons saw a
racer come into his own Saturday night at South Boston
(VA) Speedway when Jimmy Weller scored his first PASS
super late model victory in the PASS SoBo 150
Weller has made big strides all season long and he was
able to seal the deal by surviving a lap 135 restart
alongside teammate Ryan Blaney. Veteran Jay Fogleman
rounded out the podium with his third place run.
Blaney’s runner up finish was enough to move him atop
the championship point standings after Preston Peltier,
who entered the night as the point leader, struggled his
way to a tenth place finish after getting caught up in
an incident around the event’s half way point.
Weller made his weekend look easy as his #23 machine was
not only the quickest car on the track at the end of a
150 laps, but it was just as quick in his two timed laps
in Pro Photo Productions qualifying, setting fast time
with ease. After the series mandatory top ten redraw
Shark Racing Development team mates Steve Legendre and
Jay Fogleman sat on the front row. Legendre jumped out
to an early lead on the field until three time PASS
South winner “Highside” Andy Loden made his move,
passing three cars in one lap on the outside to move
into the top spot. Lodens’ reign out front was short
lived as mechanical woes spoiled a great run on lap
sixty three.
Once Loden was sidelined it was all
Dave Blaney Racing machines at the front of the field
with both Ryan Blaney and Jimmy Weller swapping the
lead. Blaney opened up a sizeable lead over his teammate
at the 100 lap mark, but Weller had the better handling
car and ran down Blaney, retaking the lead for good on
lap 128. One final restart with fifteen laps remaining
was Weller’s last challenge came on a lap 135 restart
but Weller would not be denied and he earned his first
PASS checkered by .602 seconds over team mate Blaney.
Trey Mitchell continued to build upon a strong
season with his fourth place finish and Clay Jones came
all the way from the back of the field for a solid
fifth. Heath Hindman, Devon Jones, Steve Legendre, Ryan
Moore and Preston Peltier came home sixth through tenth.
PASS South brings North Wilkesboro Speedway alive on
Saturday September 4th when the series brings short
track stock car racing back to the historic speedway
after a 14 year absence. |
