Medina, Ohio veteran Jack Smith was looking at a fourth place finish with 10 laps to go during the SUPERPRO Series "Aluminum Racing Products 75" Saturday night at Baer Field Speedway. But an incident between the leaders and a flat tire put Smith in front for the final ten laps and wnt on to victory.

Last year's Rookie of the Year Colin Tolin and "Smooth" Al Cook, Sr. brought the field to Scott Stovall's green flag with Tolin taking the lead. Rick Everidge moved into second on lap 13 and grabbed the lead on lap 21. At the half way point, it was Everidge, Jason Dietsch, Tolin, Rob Buckley, and rookie Matt Hall. The order remained the same until lap 55 when Toland went high and dropped from third to sixth.

Dietsch and Everidge battled for the lead with Dietsch moving in front on lap 56 with Everidge taking it back on lap 57. Meanwhile new daddy Rob Buckley moved to third and Smith, who came from the rear after a lap 16 tire change, grabbed fourth.

The race took a dramatic turn when Everidge and Dietsch got together in turn 1, causing a caution and sending both to the rear. Buckley's chance for victory was short lived as a flat sent him to the pits and then to the rear of the field. Smith then inherated the lead and cruised the final 10 laps to the win. Rookie Joe Fadke finished second followed by Toland, Cook, Sr. and Mike Kugler. Everidge, Buckley, Hall, Royce Mason and Zion Schaub rounded out the top ten.

Hometown favorite Tommy Cook set a new track record in Corrigan Oil qualifying with a lap of 17.589 seconds on the half mile paved oval. But a crash during hot laps eliminated him from the feature event and earned him the ARP "Hard Luck" award." Fadke earned the AllStar Performance "Hard Charger" award and Everidge grabbed the Penske Shocks "Shocking Move of the Race" with many saves of a loose race car during the middle stages of the event.

Race number three of the 2008 SUPERPRO Series will be on June 21 at the Springport Motor Speedway with the running of the "Lipari Foods 75" on the 3/8ths. mile oval. For more information, go the the web at www.superproracing.com.
