The Sweeney Chevrolet
Buick GMC RUSH Racing Series powered by Pace Performance had their final
appearance of the season at Tri-City Raceway Park for the RUSH Sportsman
Modifieds on Sunday. It was race no.3 of the 2018 season for the Bicknell
Sportsman Modified Touring Series with all three races coming since Wednesday
in addition to a Bicknell Weekly Series event on Saturday at Pittsburgh's PA
Motor Speedway.
Garrett Krummert
wrapped up a busy weekend for himself and the RUSH Sportsman Modifieds by
putting on a dominating performance in the 20-lap feature for his first career
Bicknell Touring Series victory, worth $600. Krummert, who won the May 20
Bicknell Weekly Series race at Tri-City, competed in all four RUSH Sportsman
Modified races in five days with two wins, a second, and a sixth place in
addition to a runner-up and third place finish with the Big-Block Modifieds.
"It's been
good," acknowledged the 30-year-old Ellwood City, Pa. racer when asked
about his week. "We weren't very good when we unloaded but kept working on
it and working on it after the heat and dash and were pretty close right there.
It helped making the dash to be able to try some things. Typically, we don't
change too much, but tonight I think we changed about everything; two spring,
four bars - we moved everything. It was a lot of work, but it was good. These
cars are so evenly matched with the motors. We've won six races, but these guys
are right there and just as good. Once you get that clean air, it really helps.
I have to thank Jerry Schaffer. He owns this thing and just lets me play with
it. He never comes when we win except here, so I guess we're going to have to
get another race here."
Everyone at Bicknell
Racing Products would like to congratulate Garrett Krummert on his first career
Bicknell Sportsman Modified Touring Series victory Sunday evening at Tri-City
Raceway Park!
