Terry Phillips made his initial visit to Lebanon Midway Speedway a fruitful one as he grabbed his 74th O'Reilly MLRA win on Friday night.
Dewaine Hottinger held down the pole position and quickly jumped out to the early lead only to have Ken Essary and Al Purkey stalking his every move looking to take over the top spot. An early caution for Bryan Allison's spun machine bunched the field up and on the restart David Barker moved around Essary and Purkey to take over second and begin his own challenge of Hottinger for first. Behind Barker the group of Essary, Purkey, Terry Phillips, and Alan Vaughn waged their own battle for the third position as that group began to work on Barker heavily. Barker began to slip back slightly which allowed Purkey to regain the runner-up position and once again attempt to get past Hottinger as he continued to pace the field out front. While Hottinger and Purkey battled it out Phillips was able to work his way into the third position just prior to the caution flag that waved on lap 17. On that restart Purkey moved to the middle of the track, but once again Hottinger was able to hold off his advances. Lap 21 saw the battle tighten up even further as Purkey once again came alongside Hottinger only to find Phillips take the racing three wide as he continued to work the top side of the track. As the trio raced three wide down the front stretch Phillips was able to take over the position as they raced into turn one with Purkey following him through relegating Hottinger back to the third spot. Purkey had a late race chance to challenging Phillips when a caution flag waved, but Phillips pulled away from the pack as the green flag waved and raced on to the checkered flag with Purkey holding on for second. Hottinger, Ken Essary, and 14th starting Dane Daucus rounding out the top five at the line.
Thirty cars signed into the Lebanon Midway Speedway pits with Phillips, Hottinger, Purkey, and Ken Essary taking the heat race wins. The most recent O'Reilly MLRA winner, Justin Wells, took top honors in the B feature and was able to keep his night moving along.
Next up for the O'Reilly MLRA is a visit to Lake Ozark Speedway in Eldon, MO on Saturday, June 17.
