ABBOTTSTOWN, Pa.  It was an action-packed night at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday, April 5, with lead changes, close racing, and a red flag that shook up the 410 sprint car feature.

The 30-lap A-Main started with J.J. Loss and Cole Knopp going wheel-to-wheel into turn 1, but it was Loss who powered out of turn two to claim the early lead. Dallas Schott made quick work of the field, moving into third and sneaking by Knopp at the line for second just before Knopp spun in turn two, bringing out the caution. Dylan Norris was also sent to the rear after a 360 spin during the same sequence.

Anthony Macri moved into third early on, while Brandon and Freddie Rahmer battled for fifth. Loss started to stretch his lead and approached lapped traffic on lap eight, with Schott and Macri giving chase.

On lap 11, Loss jumped the cushion in turns 1 and 2, opening the door for Schott to take over the top spot.

Macri wasnt far behind and began closing the gap on Loss for second, eventually taking the position out of turn four on lap 15. Freddie Rahmer continued to pressure Brandon for a top-five spot as the laps clicked off.

With clean air ahead, Schott built a comfortable lead, but as he neared lapped traffic, Macri began to reel him in. The intensity picked up quickly, and with traffic looming, Macri took a shot at the lead as Schott tapped the wall in turn 4. The two swapped sliders as they worked around a lapped car, until contact on the backstretch sent Schott flipping end over end, bringing out the red flag on lap 23.

Macri inherited the lead for the restart with JJ Loss, Kyle Moody, Brandon Rahmer, and Freddie Rahmer rounding out the top five. Troy Wagaman Jr. entered the fray late, sliding under Freddie for fifth. In a thrilling three-wide battle at the line, Wagaman claimed fourth, with Freddie in fifth and Brandon falling to sixth.

Moody began closing in on Loss for second, while Freddie and Wagaman renewed their battle in the closing laps. Freddie regained the fourth spot with just one lap remaining.

Macri took the checkered flag by 1.740 seconds over Loss. Moody was third and Freddie Rahmer crossed the line fourth. Wagaman completed the top five.

The 358 sprint car feature at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday night saw a new face in Victory Lane, as Nash Ely picked up his first career win in the division with a strong performance at the front of the field.
