Chris Humblet Takes Flight

With the jets of the Airforce base next door flying overhead all afternoon Chris Humblet turned on his own after burner just after halfway to jet to the feature win.

Heats kicked off the night with Billy Hubbard and Aaron Leach taking wins before it was to the feature.

Matt Mullins and Bill Mullis paced the field to green with Mullins out first and Mullis falling behind in second.

Mullins kept the pace up with Mullis not letting him get far with Aaron Leach making his way to third with Chris Humblet up to forth and Jerald Harris now fifth.

As the laps went on Humblet and Harris worked there way up the leader board but laps flash by on these pavement races and just after halfway Humblet had made it to second and went low into the lead with Harris chasing Mullins for second.

With Harris making a low line pass to second he took off after Humblet. Third was still Mullins as the front two took off but there would be no catching Chris Humblet as he was smooth and fast and flashed under the waving checkered flag for his first win of the season.

At the line it was Chris Humblet, Jerald Harris, Matt Mullins, Aaron Leach, Bill Mullis, Matthew Leach, Robert Tyler, Daren Bolac, Jimmy Humblet, John Smith, Chris Ware, Caleb Harris and Billy Hubbard.

The VSS takes off a week before heading back to the beach at Dixieland Speedway for the last Fast Friday race of the year on Friday night July 18th.
