Norfolk’s Tad Pospisil extended his lead in the Malvernbank.com SLMR Series points standings by picking up the win on Thursday, July 16 at the Billy’s Cafe sponsored event at the Prelude to the Silver Dollar Nationals. RC Whitwell had the early lead in the Al Humphrey owned mount but was soon joined by Matt Buller and the two battled it out for the lead. Buller eventually ended up in front.
With about ten laps to go in the main, Pospisil who had moved into second put a slide job on Buller, actually bouncing off the #1 machine of Buller and raced into the lead. From that point on Pospisil extend his lead and cruised to the win. Buller finished second, Whitwell third, Bill Leighton, Jr. fourth and Lucas Oil Late Model regular Jason Papich fifth.
