Great Day For Dan Green And The Farmer’s Insurance #46! (Bruce Thomas photo)

Bechtelsville, PA – The day started early on Saturday for the G & H Motorsports team as we had to put the finishing details on the LAZER X Chassis #46 that Dan Green races. The team then loaded the car and headed to The Parkesburg Point youth center in Parkesburg PA. During the time there the kids were able to get autograph hero cards and some were able to sit in the drivers seat! The team would like to thank Mike Book from Farmer’s Insurance and Amy Walton of The Point for having the team there!
With the appearance done the team headed to Grandview Speedway for the weekly racing events that includes the NASCAR Dirt Late Models. The heats lined-up with Dan starting 5th in the second 8 lap event. The race only had one caution flag for water on the track and Dan finished 5th.
The FOCUS Shocks #46 had some set-up issues that the team talked through and with help from Drew Weisser from FOCUS, Dan and Scott Green, Cathy Green, Debbie Dutter, Bob Higginbotham and Brett Higginbotham changed a few things to see if it worked. Jim Alexander just can not stay away with his broken leg as he was at the track cheering on Dan.
Starting in 6th for the 25 lap feature, Dan took the green and after just a couple laps got by Bill Henning #80 and Steve Gross #62 to run in the 4th spot. A caution on lap 4 for a multi car accident put Dan on Rick Todorow #93 bumper. Dan and Todorow battled many laps and after a few more caution periods Dan got by and started tracking down Kyle Merkel #0 and leader Lou Egrie Jr #4e. As K. Merkel made a move to take first he pushed slightly and Dan drove underneath to take second on lap 20. Dan stayed on Egrie Jr’s bumper the rest of the way to finish second for his best finish this year and move back up to 5th in the season long points. With two races left Dan is only 85 points out of 4th. A big congratulations go to Lou Egrie Jr. For getting his first career NASCAR BRC Dirt Late Model win!
Next event for the G & H Motorsports team is Saturday August 29, 2015 at the Low Down and Dirty Meet and Greet at Grandview Speedway in front of the main grandstands at 5 PM. Make sure you get to the track early as the team always has a lot of free stuff and chances to win other items. Then at 7:30 PM, Dan will have the Ken’s Towing #46 on the track to race in the Superior Products Night presented by Bernheisel Race Cars 30 Lap feature for the Late Models.
