Bryan Barber Best in Summit Racing Equipment American Modified Series Thunder in the Mountains at 201 Speedway

Sitka, KY- August 24, 2013- The Summit Racing Equipment American Modified Series returned to action after a month layoff with its first-ever appearance at 201 Speedway in Sitka, KY and series points leader Bryan Barber would pick up his third series victory of the season as he took the checkered flags first in the Thunder in the Mountains event and picked up the $1,500 payday aboard his Maximum Energy Development/B&B Motorsports/All Star Performance/Frankland Racing Equipment sponsored #10 Bandit Race Car powered by a Jay (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)ens Race Engine.

Front row starters Jimmy Payne and Bryan Barber would bring the field to the green flag, with Barber taking the early race lead, with Payne giving chase and this pair would quickly pull away from the field each time after a caution flag, of which there were six during the first 18 laps of the event. Payne would change his running line on the restart and would motor past Barber for the lead off of turn four as the field saw the halfway signal on lap 20. But the next caution of the race would be for the leader as Payne’s mount lost a driveshaft entering turn three and ended his evening. The lap 23 restart would see Barber resume the top spot and survive five more caution flags and some pressure from Dan Ebert on each restart, but Barber’s mount would prove too much over the final 10 circuits, which were caution free. Ebert would take second, while ninth starting Jim Barnett would take third. Don Adams and 13th starting Craig Christian would complete the top five.

The remainder of the top ten finishers at the Thunder in the Mountains event would be hard charger and 17th starting Keith Smith, Kevin Hall, Jason Hall, Jody Puckett, and Scott Lemaster. The 40 lap, $1,500 to win event would be slowed by twelve caution periods and take 40 minutes to complete.

In preliminary action, Jimmy Payne would be the Quick Car Racing Product top qualifier among 26 entries at 14.840 seconds. Summit Racing Equipment heat one went to Jimmy Payne, while Dan Ebert scored the win in Williams Precision Engine heat two. Hypercoils heat three went to Bryan Barber, with Jody Puckett winning Frankland Racing Equipment heat four. The Wehrs Machine B-Main was captured by Keith Smith, while series provisional starting spots went to Brandon Johnson and Josh Stumbo.

The next events for the open-wheel warriors of the Summit Racing Equipment American Modified Series will be the Land of Lincoln Triple Shot. Those three events will take place on Friday August 30 at Farmer City Raceway in Farmer City, IL ($3,000 to win/$225 to start), Saturday August 30 at Fairbury’s American Legion Speedway in Fairbury, IL for the Casey’s Modified Nationals ($5,000 to win/$250 to start), and Sunday September 1 at Spoon River Speedway in Canton, IL the Mod Fall Nationals ($5,000 to win/$250 to start).
