Danny Dietrich scores lucky 13 during Lincoln Speedway finale
By Fully Injected Motorsports:
GETTYSBURG, Pa. (October 19, 2020) – For the 13th time of 2020, and for the eighth time in the Pigeon Hills, “Double-D” Danny Dietrich is a main event winner aboard the Gary Kauffman Racing, Weikert’s Livestock, Sandoe’s Fruit Market, Pace Performance, Big Cove Whitetail Trophy Hunts, Drop Of Ink Tattoo, Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC, Self Made, No. 48 sprint car, most recently finding his way to victory lane during Lincoln Speedway’s season finale on Saturday, October 17.
Earning $4,000 in the process, Dietrich’s evening at the “Fabulous” Lincoln Speedway was not only prosperous, but also impressive, earning his victory from the outside of six. The former Lincoln Speedway and Williams Grove Speedway track champion took command of the 30-lap contest with ten circuits remaining and never looked back, securing his place on the A-Main grid by way of runner-up finish in his respective heat race.
“That was awesome,” Danny Dietrich said, who owns victories at Monarch Motor Speedway, Selinsgrove Speedway, Williams Grove Speedway, Trail-Way Speedway, and Grandview Speedway in addition to Lincoln. “We’re out here to do one thing and that’s win races. That wouldn’t be possible without everyone who helps this team. It takes a lot of work during the week to be successful on the weekends. We still have a few starts left on our calendar so we’re going to do what we can to go out on top.”
Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing will cap their 2020 season with three weekends of competition; a Saturday night visit to BAPS Motor Speedway on October 24, the World of Outlaws Last Call at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on November 6-7, and the Sprint Showdown finale at BAPS Motor Speedway on Saturday, November 14.
