Kenseth Completes PASS South
Season Sweep At SoBo on 8-31 |
SOUTH BOSTON, VA (August 31) – Ross
Kenseth led the most laps, but had
to fend off a furious late race
challenge from rookie Jared Irvan to
win the Pro All Stars Series (PASS)
South Super Late Model SoBo 100
Saturday night at South Boston
Speedway. With his win, Kenseth
completed a sweep of both PASS South
events held at South Boston Speedway
this year.
“It’s always fun
coming back here, heck of a job by
Jared Irvan, he raced us really
clean and it was fun racing him for
the win,” said Kenseth after his 4th
career PASS South Super Late Model
win. “I felt like we were really
good, but if we got pinched down to
the bottom it would take us about
two or three laps to get going. Real
proud of the guys, we brought the
same thing back here as last time
and it work really good again.”
Defending PASS South Champion
Kyle Grissom set fast time in
qualifying with a lap of 98.307
miles per hour when the race was
originally scheduled on August 17th.
Due to rain, that event was
cancelled and the 24 car starting
field was lined up based on that
qualifying session from two weeks
ago. The top 10 qualifiers redrew
for their starting positions which
put Kenseth and rookie Spencer Davis
on the front row, while Grissom
would be relegated to ninth.
At the drop of the green flag,
Kenseth quickly jumped into the lead
before the first caution of the
night would wave on lap 3 for a spin
by Justin Allison in turn three.
Kenseth continued to lead, but the
car on the move was Grissom. He made
his way by PASS South points leader
Jay Fogleman and Brandon Ward for
second on lap 16 and set his sights
on the leader Kenseth. Following a
spin in turn two by Clay Rogers on
lap 20, Grissom moved around Kenseth
for the lead on the restart.
Grissom’s stay up front was short
lived though, as Kenseth retook the
top spot on lap 31. On lap 36, the
lapped machine of Jerrick Johnson
would spin in front of the leaders
in turn two collecting the second
and third place cars of Grissom and
Fogleman. Both pitted with Fogleman
having to make extensive repairs to
the front end of his damaged Ford.
One of the hardest crashes of
the night occurred on lap 39 when
rookie Tyler Audie lost control of
his machine and made hard contact
with the front straightaway wall.
Then, three laps later fellow rookie
and PASS South title contender
Spencer Davis would be sidelined
when he broke a right front
suspension after contact with Joseph
Mursuli.
Kenseth continued to
run out front with Jared Irvan now
in second followed by Brandon
McReynolds in third, who was also
making his PASS South debut.
Meanwhile, Fogleman and Grissom were
making their way back to the front
moving around Joe Ryan Osborne with
19 laps to go to take fifth and
sixth respectively. Following
another spin by Rogers in turn two
on lap 91, Irvan moved around
Kenseth to take the lead on the
ensuing restart. But, the caution
would wave one lap later for a
multi-car incident on the front
straight away involving Tanner
Rumburg, Jerrick Johnson, John
Batten, Tate Fogleman and Cole Timm.
Irvan and Kenseth led the
field to the race’s final restart
with eight laps to go with Kenseth
taking over the top spot on lap 93.
Kenseth held on for his second PASS
South win of 2013 over Irvan,
McReynolds, Clete Caywood, and Kyle
Grissom. Following the race, Irvan
and his Auramist team were extremely
excited with their second place
effort.
“Finishing second is
as good as a win to us because I’m a
rookie just trying to get my feet
wet with the series,” said Irvan
after his best career PASS South
finish. “It’s a lot more fun to be
in the front than in the middle, I
just hate the caution came out
because I think we would have been
in really good shape.”
Rounding
out the top ten at the finish were
Jay Fogleman, Bobby Measmer, Jr.,
Rodney Brooks, Brandon Ward, and
Osborne.
The PASS South Super
Late Models will be in action again
on Saturday night, September 21st at
Hickory Motor Speedway for the Over
The Mountain 150 along with the PASS
Pro Late Models, CCS Modifieds, and
CCS Legends. |
