Joe Achzet capitalized on a late race mistake by leader Chris Meyers to bring home his first Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series rFactor win in the 1st to Finish Docks & Hoists IrRegular 45 Tuesday night at Oswego Speedway.
Keith Powell brought his CPR Motorsports machine home for second and Meyers was able to rally from back into the top three.
The race got underway to an inauspicious start when pole sitter Dave Soja and fellow front row starter Rob Warren collided in turn three with third place starter Ray Sand, Jr. Steve Callahan was also collected in the crash before even a lap could be run.
A complete restart was called by race director Dave Brigandi with the four drivers involved being sent to the rear of the new line-up.
Heat race wins went to Keith Powell and Ray Sand, Jr. while Rob Warren and Meyers won the semi-feature races. Full results coming soon.
