Charlie Ware Fast and Steady

Charlie made the most of a fast car and track that suited him by taking his first feature win in his own car. Charlie started off the night with using the high line in heat one to take the win followed by Tony Harris taking heat two.

Chris Ware and Charlie Ware paced the field to the green with Charlie out first bring Glenn Worrell along with him. Tony Harris was third right on Glenn Worrell as Charlie Ware stayed on the cushion staying smooth lap after lap.

Halfway came and a car did a three sixty spin then drove up the track causing some bumps and blocking the track which bunched up the field for a dash to the checkers. Charlie Ware took off and Worrell with Tony Harris right behind now as Troy Severin and Jerald Harris filled the top five.

With three to go Worrell went low to take a shot at the lead but he ended up doing a slow spin and gave the field one last try at Charlie. The green waved and Charlie took off as Severin went around Tony Harris but Charlie Ware stayed strong and flashed under the waving checkered flag first.

At the line it was Charlie Ware, Troy Severin, Tony Harris, Jerald Harris, French Grimes, Brian Lawson, Tom Humphries, Chris Ware, Kevin Fletcher, Glenn Worrell, Mattie Feldman, Anthony Linkenhoker, Eliah Omwake and Carl Simmonds.

Next week it's back to Natural Bridge Speedway in Natural Bridge, Va. on Saturday night July 26th.
