Edwards Whistles Dixie for First ASCS Rebel Win
WOODSTOCK, Ga. (July 11, 2009) -- Ohio's Gary Edwards made the most of his weekend visit to Georgia by capturing his first career American Sprint Car Series feature win in Saturday night's 25-lap ASCS Rebel main event at Dixie Speedway.
And he did it in dramatic fashion, racing into the lead in the final corner after Matt Kurtz suffered engine woes that denied a weekend sweep after taking his first win one night earlier.
Edwards paced the opening seven circuits before Kurtz took command. Kurtz paced the field until losing power in the final corner, allowing Edwards to take the win.
Kurtz limped across the stripe in second, with current series points leader Danny Martin, Jr., Bryn Gohn and Aubrey Black rounding out the top five.
Martin and Matt Linder topped heat race action.
