DIRTcar Summer Nationals: Moyer Charges to Clay Hill Summer Nationals Win PDF Print E-mail


Atwood, TN – July 1, 2010 – Billy Moyer seemingly picked up right where he left off Thursday night at Clay Hill Motorsports Park in Atwood, Tenn., during night 16 of the DIRTcar Summer Nationals tour.

 

Moyer, of Batesville, Ark., used the low groove to climb from his inside second-row starting position and slide under 2009 DIRTcar Late Model National Champion Jason Feger of Bloomington, Ill., on the 23rd lap of the 40-lap main event to claim $5,000 for his fourth series victory of 2010.

 

2009 Hell Tour Champion Dennis Erb Jr. of Carpentersville, Ill., charged late to grab second while early leader Feger, who started eighth held on for a third-place finish.  Moyer’s son, Billy Moyer Jr. also of Batesville, Ark. would cross the line in fourth ahead of series point leader Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill.

Up next for the DIRTcar Summer Nationals Tour is a visit to Paducah International Raceway on Friday July 2, 2010.  In total the Hell Tour has traveled over 3,200 miles in the course of 16 nights.  The 98-mile journey from Atwood to Paducah, Ky., is one of the shortest on the tour which offers drivers and their crews time to regroup.
