Daggett Takes Lucky Seventh ASCS SOD Win at Winston!

From Mike Strevel

ROTHBURY, Mich. (September 2, 2011) – Dustin Daggett of Grand Ledge, MI, once again visited Engine Pro ASCS Sprints on Dirt presented by ARP victory lane in the second of two series appearances at Winston Speedway Friday evening.

The Renegade Race Fuels sponsored feature event before a large Labor Day weekend crowd marked Daggett’s seventh ASCS SOD score of the season and 83rd of his series career.

The fifth-starting Daggett had to fight his way to the front, challenging for position with early leaders Ryan Ruhl from the pole and Joe Bares. It was on lap four when Daggett made his strong move working by both Ruhl and Bares and checked out.

The feature was slowed on three occasions near the half way point, but after those cautions it was clear sailing for the current point leader. The winningest driver in ASCS SOD history thanked his incredible team and sponsors for helping with the hard work.

The top five in the event were D. Daggett, Gregg Dalman, Jared Hortsman, Ruhl, and Bares.

Taking heat victories were Bares, D. Daggett, and Hortsman. The Gaerte Engines Dash went to Andy Teunnesen.
