Donny Schatz wins his fourth Silver Cup
Daryn Pittman holds of Kyle Larson to win second A-Main
Sarver, PA (July 17, 2013) Defending World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series Champion Donny Schatz won his fourth Don Martin Memorial Silver Cup Tuesday by scoring the first 30-lap, $10,000-to-win and having a better average finish than current WoO STP Points leader Daryn Pittman. Schatz finished seventh in the second A-Main, after Pittman finished 14th in the first. Pittman picked up the win after Kasey Kahne Racing teammate Cody Darrah shredded a right rear tire in the closing laps and had to hold off the furious charge of rising star Kyle Larson. Larson started the second A-Main in 26th after pitting early in the first. He patiently made his way to mid-pack in the first 20 laps and then came on like gangbusters in the final 10 laps; thrilling the after midnight crowd with a scintillating run to the back tailtank of Pittman when the checkered flag waved. All Time Sprint division wins leader Ed Lynch Jr. set fast time during time trials with a lap of 12.778 seconds on a lightning fast track after a late afternoon shower postponed time trials for approximately one hour. Former Track Champions and current All Star regulars Danny Holtgraver and Dale Blaney scored top ten finishes in the first 30-lap A-Main. Sam Hafertepe Jr. won the Turner’s Premium Iced Teas Dash, Lance Dewease won the Last Chance Showdown and Jac Haudenschild, Stevie Smith, Brent Marks and Sammy Swindell won heat races.
