Fisher Outlasts Competition at Valley 

GRAIN VALLEY. MO (September 11) - Leading  from start to finish, Josh Fisher won a wild race at Valley Speedway Friday night.  The win was Fisher’s fifth of the season in O’Reilly Auto Parts Winged Outlaw Warrior competition and the ninth career win for the Smithton sensation. 

The original start would see the start of many yellow and red flags as Mitchell Moore, Jay Russell, and J.D. Black got together in turn four with Moore having too much damage to continue.  When the field got the green on the restart, Fisher would take the lead as he was followed by polesitter Bradlee Ryun.  Just behind the lead duo a good battle was taking place between Cody Baker, Jesse Hockett, and Brian Brown as some intense slide jobs were taking place. 

The yellow would come out again with two laps complete as Chris Walker was contacted by Curtis Boyer on the frontstretch.  With no brakes, Walker went over the bank in between turns one and two lodging his car into the guardrail. Walker was not injured. 

When the green reappeared, Fisher led as Hockett slid Ryun in turn two and the pair appeared to make contact costing the impressive Higginsville youngster multiple positions. 

With four laps complete, Tyler Blank made contact with Jeff Lowery in turn two.  Terry Hinck was left with no where to go and got into Lowery and then flipped.  Lowery and Hinck would be done for the evening as Blank would change a tire and restart at the tail. 

Once green again, Fisher would jump out to a comfortable lead as he was followed by Hockett, Brown, Baker and Ryun.

On lap six, the yellow would come out for Tony Crank and Frank Brown, who spun in turn four. 
After getting another lap in, the strange night would get even stranger as multiple yellows would come out in succession. Frank Brown spun and would not continue.  Then, Rusty Potter looped his car on the backstretch as J.D. Black spun around trying to avoid him.   On the third attempt to get another lap in the books, Jeff Wingate looped his car in turn four.  A short while later, Potter would spin off the track in turn two ending his evening.  As the field took green again, Brian Brown, who had been battling Hockett for second on each restart, slowed with brake problems.  Just behind him, Jay Russell had the front wheel damaged from contact with another car.  Both Brown and Russell would not continue.

With half of the original starting field now pitside, Fisher would again lead on the restart.  Behind him, Jonathan Cornell shot forward as he got by Baker and then Hockett.  Hockett would work back by Cornell before the pair got to the flagstand. 

The final yellow would come out for Ryun who rolled to a stop in turn one ending a top five run. 

Once restarted, nobody had an answer for Fisher, who was the dominant car throughout the race in the Impact Signs and Wraps Singer-powered Maxim.  Hockett would run second in the Hockett Racing Frankenstein.  Cornell ran third in the Kiowa Line Builders Maxim as Blank rebounded from his earlier problem to finish fourth in the Blank’s Backhoe Maxim with Baker rounding out the top five.  Austin Alumbaugh ran sixth followed by Boyer, Curtis Evans, Tony Crank, and Black.

The O’Reilly Auto Parts Winged Outlaw Warriors will next be in action next Saturday September 19th at the 24 Raceway in Moberly, MO.
