TAKES USAR HOOTERS PROCUP SERIES WIN AT JENNERSTWON

MARK COTTONE WINS NATURALLY FRESH LATE MODEL CHALLENGE
SERIES |
Jennerstown, PA – October 5, 2002 – A trio of stock car
drivers were crowned winners during the final race night of
the 2002 Jennerstown Speedway racing season. It was Mardy
Lindley holding off the hard charging field of competitors
to claim the win in the “Charlie Campbell Memorial Miller
Lite 250” presented by Hooters ProCup Series Racing Game,
the second race of the Four Champions Championship playoff
series. Lindley is hot on the trail to capture his first
USAR Hooters ProCup Series championship, as he now
unofficially leads the points battle by a one point margin
over Bobby Gill.
In the final race of the Naturally Fresh Late Model
Challenge Series, it was Neil Brown capturing the race win
and Mark Cottone claiming the Series Championship. The
first half of the “Honey Mustard Dressings” 50-lap event
turned out to be a two-car battle between Mark Smith and
Neil Brown. In the second half of the race, Brad Creighton
made an impressive run to move into second position and
quickly began to close the gap with the race leader. By lap
45, Creighton was on the back bumper of Brown, as the two
drivers worked their way by lapped traffic. On the final
lap of the race, Creighton attempted one last pass, but in
the end had to settle for second. Finishing behind the top
two drivers were Mark Smith, Barry Awtey and Rick Boyer.
Mark Smith won the R&M Trucking Fast Time Award. Michael
Bernard of Pittsburgh, PA was paired with race winner Neil
Brown in the fan favorite Spectator $500 contest and picked
up the $500 prize.
Mark Cottone finished the race in seventh position and
captured the Naturally Fresh Late Model Challenge Series
Championship by a mere nine points over second place
finisher Neil Brown. Barry Awtey finished third while Mark
Smith finished fourth and Rick Miller finished fifth.
The final two events of the 2002 season will be a Racers
Flea Market to be held at the track on October 19, 2002 and
the 3rd Annual Awards Banquet to be held at the Four Points
Sheraton Hotel on November 30, 2002. For Banquet
