Broderick Wins Patriot Sprints
By Jay Pees - May 31, 2010
HAMMETT- Race time arrived with temperatures in the upper 70s for the invasion of the ASCS Patriot Sprints to Eriez Speedway on Sunday.
Connecticut's Bubba Broderick came away from his 8 -hour tow with the win. Ben Burgess Jr won his third feature of the season while Mike Knight, Wade Slaney, and Jamie Hebner got their second wins of the season. The wildest finish of the season was the Street Stock finale with Chris Withers coming away with the win in a three abreast photo-finish. And Scott Gurdak make his first visit to Victory Lane.
Broderick jumped out to the early lead in the ASCS Patriot Sprint race with Kyle Moffit second. Heat winner Judi Bates spun in turn four at lap six for the first caution of the event. At that point local driver Scott Bonnell was third, but Jared Zimbardi got by for third on the first lap under gree and Zimbardi was second at the end of eight.
At halfway, Broderick had a substantial lead over Zimbardi and was in lapped traffic. Bryan Howland got third from Moffit at lap 17, but caution was again over the speedway with six laps to go for a two-car tangle on the main straight, evaporating Broderick's huge lead.
For the restart the lapped car was the only thing between Zimbardi and the leader. Running the extreme high line, Broderick had the field covered over the remaining distance with Zimbardi settling for second with Bryan Howland, Tim Kelly, and pole sitter Kyle Moffit filling out the top five.
