Lee, NH – The Lee USA Speedway Prime Storage and Warehouse Late Model Sportsmen took center stage on Friday night for the running of the annual Firecracker 100, an extra-distance, extra-payoff race, with a mandatory pit stop getting crews involved in determining the final outcome.
Two-time 2013 feature winner Geoff Rollins took advantage of a front row start and jumped out to the lead early, and he stayed there over the first half of the race, with former champion Ryan Green holding down the second spot as the field reached the crossed flags.
With a competition caution scheduled for lap 75 if the race went that long without a yellow, the field ran caution-free for the first 67 laps, until defending champion J.R. Baril got involved in an incident that sent him into the third turn wall to slow the pace and send everybody down pit road.
