WCS Becomes A Showcase Of Skill and Patience
Written By: William Burkhart
Cody Bova would lead the opening laps of the Pine Tree Towing & Recovery Sprint feature with a Massive Battle in second between Brayton Phillips, Leyton Wagner, and Jordan Ryan. It looked to be Bova’s race until a yellow came out with 11 laps to go. On the restart Jordan Ryan threw a slider stacking up the top 4. Ryan would use that to his advantage to drive away with Porkchop’s Sweet Move Of The Race and continue onward to win his first sprint car feature of 2024.
As the Malcuit Tavern UMP Late Models would see quite the battle of titans. Kyle Moore would start on the pull with Rusty Schlenk beside him. Schlenk had speed but couldn’t seem to best Moore on his home Turf. JR Gentry also had an eventful evening starting from the 16th position and finishing 6th.
Patience would be the name of the game in the Flynn’s Tire & Auto Service UMP Modifieds. The feature started with a four car pileup. Thankfully the feature would resume with a full field. The rest of the feature would be a lot of stop and go with different cautions. 5 to go it was Jared Watson out in front with Nate Young Behind him. Young would throw a massive slide job on Watson but it Ultimately wouldn’t stick giving Watson the win.
A small battle would be the theme in The Glass House Super Stocks, round one King of The County presented by 71 Investments LLC. Brandon Morrow would get out the early lead. Charlie Duncan, Braden Tucke, and Denny Shear would throw down behind Morrow. Brandon would bring home the win after the 12-lap war a straightaway ahead.
Doug Hensel and Anthony Collins would lead the field to the green in the Joyride Transport Mini Stocks. After a wild mix up at the start Hensel’s 18 car couldn’t be stopped as he would lead all 12 laps to claim his first feature win of 2024.
Coming up Saturday May 4, Wayne County will host the MPD Performance BOSS Wingless Sprint series along with the Malcuit Tavern UMP Late Models, Flynn’s Tire & Auto Service Modifieds, The Glass House Super Stocks, and Joyride Transport Mini Stocks!
