(June
17,
2013) - Geoff Kaiser took advantage
of the inverted start to lead all 30 laps of
the Hoosier Outlaw Sprint Series (HOSS0t
feature at Anderson Speedway on AERCO
Heating and Cooling Night.
For Kaiser it was his
third career win at Anderson Speedway,
having won HOSS features in 2012 and 2008.
Kaiser was first chased
by Kyle Feeney, who was passed by Joe
Swanson on the eighth circuit with an inside
move entering turn three.
Swanson cut into
Kaiser’s lead when the race’s only caution
flag waved on lap 20 when Ryan Myers spun in
turn two.
On the restart Kaiser
pulled away to win by four-tenths of a
second over Swanson with Troy DeCaire
finishing third.
“The car was put
together last night,” Kaiser said of the
winning car provided by the Swanson team.
“We were still working on the car when we
got to the track.”
DeCaire was fifth after
the first lap and moved into the top three
after 20 laps.
Fast qualifier Aaron
Pierce started seventh in the feature, but
missed on the set-up and finished eighth.
In the first of two heat
races, Tim Cox jumped into the lead from the
start but fans were watching the exploits of
fast qualifier Aaron Pierce.
Pierce was running fifth
after the first circuit but immediately
started working his way to the front.
First he passed Jason
Fuller on the second lap, three circuits
later he slipped inside of Kyle Feeney for
third entering turn three and a lap later
was in the runner-up position with a pass of
Myers in turn one.
DeCaire passed Myers on
lap seven to move into the third position.
At the checkers it was
Cox winning by 1.9-seconds over Pierce with
DeCaire, Myers and Kyle Feeney rounding out
the top five.
In the second race Kevin
Feeney led from start to finish winning by a
comfortable margin over Jim Payne.
Kaiser came home third
followed by Kody Swanson and Kody Gallogly.
There was a good battle
for the third position among Kaiser, Swanson
and Gallogly with Joe Swanson right on their
rear nerf bars.
