McCREADIE CLAIMS LINCOLN APPALACHIAN MOUNTIAN DIRT LATE MODEL SPEEDWEEK FINALE & SERIES TITLE
ABBOTTSTOWN, PA , 6/6/12 - It was the "T-Mac" show in the Appalachian Mountain Dirt Late Model Speedweek finale at Lincoln Speedway Wednesday night.
Tim McCreadie claimed both the $7,100 Charlie Grinestaff Memorial win and the Appalachian Speedweek crown in winning the 40-lap feature event.
And he did so in spectacular fashion. T-Mac started sixth and was still running third when Nick Dickson's lead was clocked at nearly five seconds on lap 24. He wrestled second from polesitter Greg Satterlee on the next lap, and reeled in Dickson over the next 12 non-stop laps to drive under Dickson for the lead exiting turn four of lap 37. The final 26 laps went non-stop.
Once in the lead, McCreadie drove away to a .94-second win, his second career win at Lincoln Speedway. The first was a World of Outlaw win two years ago.
"It was better to be second because it started streakin' up on the bottom pretty hard," said McCredie in victory lane, "Those lapped cars were doing what they're doing. They tell 'em to go low. Unfortunately, that's where the groove was. If it was reversed, Nick would've have driven around me and we'd be second."
"Clint Smith told me one time 'When your dial's straight up and down, you can't do much wrong,' and for this last three days our dial seems to be pointing at the moon right now," continued McCreadie, "This was a great track all night long and I want to thank everyone for coming out.
" Satterlee, who led the first four laps, hung on for a third-place finish, with eighth-starting Jamie Lathroum and Gary Stuhler completing the top five. Rounding out the top ten were Rick Eckert, John Garvin Jr., Rusty Schlank, Brian Booze, and Brady Smith.
Heats for the Super Late Models were won by Rick Eckert, Dickson, and McCreadie, with Jason Covert winning the B-Main.
Fast time in time trials over the 37-car field was set by Booper Bare with a one-lap time of 16.316-seconds (82.741 MPH).
