Hines, Bennett, Fearn, & Meyer Score NAPA Auto Parts Opening Day Victories At Stafford Motor Speedway

 Posted by Wayne G. Barber & Track Photo


In the 20-lap Limited Late Model feature, Jeremy Lavoie took the early lead with Alexandra Fearn right behind him in second.  Gary Patnode was third in line followed by Matt Clement and Rich Hammann. 

At the halfway point of the race, Lavoie and Fearn were still running nose to tail for the lead with Patnode in third, Hammann fourth, and Jay Clement fifth.  Fearn was able to finally get to the inside of Lavoie on lap-12 and she took the lead from Lavoie on lap-13.  R.J. Surdell spun coming out of turn 2 to bring the caution out with 15 laps complete.
            Fearn’s car stumbled coming back up to speed on the restart, which allowed Lavoie to power his way into the lead but the caution came back out with 16 laps complete for a spin in turn 4 by Patnode.

Fearn had no problem coming up to speed on the restart as she powered into the lead with Lavoie in second.  Hammann was third in line followed by Jay Clement and Patnode was already back up to fifth after his spin.  Fearn led Lavoie to the checkered flag to pick up her first win of the season.  Hammann finished third with Jay Clement and Hopkins rounding out the top-5.
