Last lap pass gives Satterlee Lucas Oil Hagerstown win

HAGERSTOWN, Md. - Gregg Satterlee passed race leader Scott Bloomquist heading into turn one on the final lap and went on to win the Stanley Schetrompf Founders Day Classic on Saturday Night at Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, Md.

It is Satterlee’s first career Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win. He becomes the ninth different winner in nine Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series races at the “Capitol of Dirt Racing”.

Tim McCreadie came home in third, followed by the current LOLMDS point leader Jonathan Davenport in fourth and Rick Eckert in fifth.

“I couldn’t believe it,” said Satterlee. “It is so hard to follow lapped cars here. He (Bloomquist) got a little crooked going into turn one and I just hit that corner perfectly. I was going to try going high into turn one to go around him, and at the last second I decided to go low, and it paid off. It was just one of those things, and I drove right by him.”

Jimmy Owens led the first 14 laps until Bloomquist took over the point. Bloomquist held the lead steadily for most of the race. The final caution came out with 14 laps-to-go. On the final restart, Satterlee was in third and had to pass Tim McCreadie to get to second.

Satterlee then set his sights on Bloomquist and closed the gap with each waning lap. Satterlee was a car length behind Bloomquist as the two drivers took the white flag. Moments later Satterlee dove to the inside of turn number one to take the lead on the final lap.

Jared Landers, Earl Pearson, Jr., Jimmy Owens, Don O’Neal and Darrell Lanigan rounded out the top ten.
