Abbottstown, PA (July 31, 2021) – Freddie Rahmer scored his fourth win of the season on Saturday night, extending his point lead in the race for the track championship. “We just positioned ourselves there. Chase was setting a pretty good pace, it was early on and he just got a little too high off of four and we were in a good spot.” Rahmer inherited the lead from Dietz on lap 13 after Chase went to the pits to change a right rear flat tire.
After taking over the lead, Rahmer was not challenged for the top spot, “I don’t how good we were there really there at the end but it worked out.”
With some big races looming ahead on the schedule Rahmer has his eye on finishing out the season strong, “Glad to get the win for everybody. There’s a lot of racing and we got to keep focused.”
Chase Dietz shared the front row for the start of the 30-lap feature with his uncle, Cory Haas.
Dietz led the field into turn 1 with Freddie taking a look under Haas for second. Haas held the second spot with Freddie on his bumper. Freddie slid Haas for second in turns 1 and 2 on the second lap. Brandon Rahmer moved up to fourth on lap 2 before the caution came out for Jim Siegel.
