Tomster Wins Third Feature Of The Year
Qualified: 8TH, 15.341 (102.783 MPH)
Marne, MI (June 28) – If it is a Saturday night at Berlin, it means racing and weather issues. Once again, rain affected the nights activities cancelling heats and pushing the program to a start time of 8pm. However, the Thomas Motorsports crew as always, rises to meet the challenge. When the green flag waved to start the Coors Light Late Models, Tom was on the charge to the front. He had a great battle for third with #222 Caleb Bisacky in the early laps of the 50 lap feature. On lap 20 leader #8 Dakota Carlson got into a lapped car, Tom running third at the time chose the right lane to dart into first place. From that point on the Baker-powered hot rod would not be touched as Tom cruised to his 3rd win of the year. “Nine times out of 10 we know what we are going to run in the feature before we even get to the track,” Thomas said. “Sometimes we will make fine-tuning adjustments based on how a heat race or scuff session feels, but that wasn’t the case tonight”. While accepting another Hoosier Tire Feature Winner sticker, Thomas added “I want to pepper this roof with these stickers”

Our staff will be giving away a free T-Shirt to the reader who makes the best post in our Frontstretch Forum between now and the end of the season. So, what makes a good post? It’s pretty hard to impress us, but here are some things we are looking for:

Does your post spark passionate reactions from other readers? Are you commenting on meaningful NASCAR-related events? Do your posts have substance? In other words, “Dale Jr. is the best driver ever” or “Danica Patrick is hot” will not cut it.

So go to the Frontstretch Forums, post early, post often, and post well! We’ll announce the winner following the final race of the season at Homestead.
