New Egypt, NJ (October 16) -- New Egypt Speedway'€™s 1999 Modified champion, Billy Pauch, took charge at the drop of the green flag and never looked back as he lapped all but the top four cars to post his 14th feature win of the year in the track’s 50-lap Modified finale on Saturday.

"€œ't’s the racie't I’ve seen the track all year; you could run both top and bottom,"€ Pauch exclaimed in Victory Lane" “Starting second made it easier, but coming through the lapped cars was like starting 18th. I'€™ve got to give the credit to my crew, they really keep this car going."

Lining up second by luck of the draw, Pauch took command at the start with Roger Laureno quickly moving into second. By the lap 15 mark, Pauch worked lapped traffic to his advantage as he opened up a commanding lead on the field. Gary Butler then advanced to second with Tom Hager riding third, trailed by Kenny Brightbill and Mark Bitner. Pauch was still in command with Brightbill making his presence known as he charged into second on lap 34. In the remaining laps, Pauch continued his march through backmarkers while Brightbill held sway in second a half lap behind. Pauch aced the $5,000 victory with Brightbill following. Butler, Bitner and Hager completed the top five.

In the Sportsman fray, Sinking Spring, PA'€™s Keith Brightbill used his second place starting spot to take charge on the green and lead all 40 laps to collect his sixth feature win of the season. “The guys worked hard all year -- this goes to them,” Brightbill told the crowd. Brightbill had several challengers throughout the event with invader Ryan Godown giving chase in the last ten laps. Making up the front five at the line were Brightbill, Godown, Jack Swain, Tom Eppolite Jr. and Mickey Kessler.

Howell, NJ'€™s Jeff Carpenter came from 17th to the lead at the halfway mark and dominated the 30-lap Street Stock event for his second win of '€™99. A caution with two to go closed the field on the leader; however, Carpenter was up to the challenge as he took the checker ahead of Billy Bauer, Richie Byrne, Kim Cooke and Carol Whitehouse. "€œThis was the ce I needed to win -- I had a lot of ups and downs this season. I didn't think I could come from 17th to win it,"€ Carpenter informed.

The special race meet attracted 158 entries. Brenda Reeser won the special Garden State Vintage Stock Car exhibition match while the fans were able to meet more than 30 legendary racing heroes who participated in interview sessions and signed limited edition collectible autograph cards.

The nightly 50/50 was worth $1,882 to one lucky fan. The track awards banquet will take place on Sat., Feb. 5th at Bally'€™s Park Place Casino in Atlantic City. For information, call (609) 758-1900.
