Brian Montieth can certainly add another win to his career books, as he picked up his 7th win this season on Saturday night. Not only did this win come from a track where he recently claimed his 4th straight track championship, but also walked away from winning two weeks prior at Lincoln Speedway’s 3/8 mile dirt track.
“We were just lucky to draw a good pill,” said crew chief Scott Zellers after Saturday night’s win. “We usually draw awful for time trials and luckily, going out early tonight really helped in our favor.”
Montieth timed second quick in the Jerry Parrish owned car #21 for time trials, starting him on the outside of row two for his heat. He went on finish second and claimed the third spot in the dash.
Brian started third in Saturday's 23rd Annual Hank Gentzler Manufacturers Appreciation Race and wasted no time in passing for the runner up spot by the end of the first lap. He spent the next 18 laps fighting off cautions and tracking down pole sitter and race leader Danny Dietrich in car #48. By the end of the 19th lap, Montieth was able to pull a slider and run off with the lead and the win. This marked win number 36 for Montieth’s 410 career.
The Premier Auto Works Race Team will be back in action racing Friday night at Williams Grove. This will be the final point’s race at Williams Grove and Montieth currently resides second in the 410 sprints. They will then return to Lincoln Speedway on Saturday.
