MONTIETH CLAIMS FOURTH STRAIGHT TRACK CHAMPIONSHIP
(Click on headline link above for full story) Jeff Rohrbaugh Claims Second Career Lincoln 358 Sprint Title; Sam Gallagher also a second-time champ in Thundercars; Gene Knaub Claims Fourth Straight 358 Late Model Championship
YORK, PA, 11/20/10 - Lincoln Speedway track champions and special year-end awards were handed out at the Holiday Inn in York Saturday night, November 19th. More than 200 people were in attendance to watch the crowning of the 410 sprint, 358 sprint, thundercar, and 358 late model champions for 2011. The top finishers in the season-long point series for all four divisions were honored as well as special awards.
MONTIETH CLAIMS FOURTH STRAIGHT LAWRENCE CHEVROLET TRACK CHAMPIONSHIP
It was another banner year for Phoenixville’s Brian Montieth, whose six wins included the season-opening “Icebreaker 30,” the Lincoln Keystone Cup Series event, the 8th Annual Weldon Sterner Memorial, the Hank Gentzler Memorial Manufacturers Race, and the annual Kenny Weld/Hilly Rife Memorial race en route to his fourth straight Lawrence Chevrolet 410 Sprint Track Championship.
The driver known as “the Edge” dominated with 102 feature laps led during the season. And his six wins bumped him up to 10th on the all-time Lincoln career win list (within two of Van May on the Lincoln career win list with 26 wins).
In 26 events, Montieth amassed 19 top-10 and 12 top-five finishes to go along with his six wins.
Only Fred Rahmer (10) and Steve Smith (9) have more track championships.
It was also the fourth track title for car owner Jerry Parrish and sponsors Premiere Auto Works and Auto Locator. Montieth’s title also secured chief wrench Scott Zellers his fourth Mechanic of the Year award.
Danny Dietrich was the second winningest driver and nailed down second in season points in the Gary Kauffman-owned Sandoe’s Fruit Market #48. Among Dietrich’s four wins were the All-Star Circuit of Champions show on June 11th and a win in the final race of the year, the second of twin 20’s on Lincoln’s 59th Anniversary show.
Dietrich finished a slim 20 points behind Montieth in a points chase that went down the final lap of the final points race of the year. Dietrich scored 14 top-five and 18 top-ten finishes during the year.
New Oxford’s Brian Leppo had another great year, finishing third in points on the strength of two wins, ten top-fives and 17 top-10 finishes. Leppo’s wins included the Lincoln Spring Championship event in April.
Denver’s Alan Krimes scored one win, seven top-fives and 17 top-tens to finish fourth in season points.
Brad McClelland followed up his 2010 national sprint car rookie of-the-year honors with the 2011 most improved driver award after his fifth-place finish in season points. McClelland picked up his first career 410 sprint car win at Lincoln on Premier Auto Works/Auto Locator night July 24th. His sophomore season included six top-five and 12 top-ten finishes.
Completing the top ten in season points were Jimmy Siegel (1 win), Cory Haas (2 wins), Sportsmanship Award winner Brent Marks (2 wins), Aaron Ott (1 win), and winless Adam Wilt.
Other Lincoln wins in 2011 were recorded by Greg Hodnett (2 wins), Bill Stine (first time career win), Gerard McIntyre, Jr., Mike Bittinger, and Doug Esh.
All told, there were 14 different winners in 26 races at Lincoln in 2011.
Second-generation driver Chad Criswell, who finished the season 13th in points, was recognized as Lincoln’s 2011 rookie of-the-year.
