Easter Miracle For Ben Rowe at Hickory
HICKORY, N.C. — In his own words, it was a miraculous performance from Ben Rowe at Hickory Motor Speedway over the weekend.
“It was a long, long night,” Rowe said after finishing eighth in the PASS Easter Bunny 150 on Saturday. “To come home where we did, it was a miracle. It really was.”
Rowe battled lost brakes, a flat tire and damaged to the race car all night to charge from 28th starting position in the 32-car field and end up in the top-10 by the time the checkered flag fell in his No. 48 Community Pharmacies Chevrolet.
Rowe, the 2009 Easter Bunny 150 winner, knew that his team would be in for a battle even before qualifying began for the second event in the five-race 2010 PASS National Series.
(Hickory NC – 5/3/10) Preston Peltier bided his time as Jay Fogleman and Ryan Blaney battled for the lead in Saturday night’s Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South super late model 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway, but when it came time to pull the trigger Peltier drove around both Fogleman and Blaney to capture the victory. Fogleman cam home second after starting 21st and series point leader Ryan Blaney earned third. Cassius Clark, Jeff Choquette, Joey Gase, Chase Elliott, Ben Rowe, Heath Hindman and Clay Jones completed the top ten.
