Selinsgrove,PA- It took nearly 2 months for mother nature to cooperate. But Selinsgrove Speedway finally got a beautiful Saturday to work with. A Great crowd was on hand for the 4 feature program with 2 Roadrunner Features, The Lehman’s Towing Super Sportsman Tour and the River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series 305 Sprint Cars. High Caliber Cranes Victory Lane would see John Edkins, Dustin Young and a sweep by Jake Jones in feature action.
The Lehmans Super Sportsman Tour made their 2024 season debut at Selinsgrove. While there were only 11 cars. The racing lived up to the hype behind the Edkin’s of John and Kenny. The initial start saw Marysville Kenny Edkin take the lead. But it didn't last long as Ryan Rutz jumped the right rear of Chad Baker. Rutz would go up into the wall and suffer front and rear end damage to end his night. Baker would get the right rear changed and continue on.
The restart would see Marysville John Edkin take the lead and run away and hide from the word go. The racing behind Edkin was hot and heavy between the 2m of Matt Ondeck, 25 Tyler Wolford and the 30 of Scott Dellinger. That battle for the 3rd spot would last for a majority of the race as Dellinger would get around Wolford for 3rd in the closing laps. Meanwhile It was all the Edkin boys up from as John Edkin would walk the entire field for a nearly 3 second win over Kenny Edkin, Dellinger in the 3rd spot, Ondeck and Wolford would round out the top 5.
“Its nice to win our first race of the year”, Edkin said after the race.” But I feel awful for the promotional team for not alot of cars on a fun race track. The car was fast all night and with the competition behind us it was a great win for the team.
