Rahmer used patience in 25-lap 410 Sprint car feature at Lincoln Speedway then waited until race leader Chad Layton used up his tires and turned it into his fourth overall win of the season.
“Everything went our way today, ” Rahmer said after his 155th career Lincoln win. “Starting sixth ended up being an advantage today because Chad was running a really good pace around the top and I stayed on the bottom and found the rubber. Getting the lead first isn’t always the hot set-up and he had to stay up there because he was going good, but when the rubber came in, it was church over. ”
While Rahmer guaranteed a Williams Grove championship last week and certainly was on his game, he quickly reminded everyone that it’s still daytime racing.
“It’s still daytime racing and this don’t mean nothing, ” he stated after the $3,000 payday. “The real racing starts next week, this ain’t squat. I started on the pole in the heat and got lucky there and it’s just all working my way right now, but it can turn in a second. And the guys that are having tough luck now could be the guys standing here next time. ”
Rahmer and Layton went at it on the restart but Layton maintained the lead when Mark Smith’s day ended on lap 14 after contact with another car on the front stretch.
