RUSS MITTEN SCORES BEDFORD SUPER SPORTSMAN WIN AT BEDFORD

June 1st, 2024

Long time Super Sportsman veteran Russ Mitten added another notch on his career as he grabbed his first ever Bedford Speedway win in Friday night action at the track.

Pole sitter Troy Rhome was almost the star of the 20 lap Sportsman event.  He took off at the start and dominated the event, pulling away after each of the quick cautions as Russ Mitten took up the chase.   Behind them, John Edkin, Mike Enders and Scott Dellinger had a race of their own as they traded third spot several times.

 

But Rhome’s hopes went up in smoke as he drifted to a halt in turn 3 on lap 17.  On what would be the final restart, Mitten shot away from what was then the second-place battle to score his personal historic win.  Edkin secured second at the line ahead of Dellinger, Enders and Blake Brooks.   Dellinger and Enders won the heats.

 

Heat 1 was interrupted as Kenny Edkin flipped through turn two on the first lap forcing a red flag session.  Amazingly, Edkin and the crew repaired the car and he made the feature event, finishing 7th
