Chad Ruhlman heads for a RUSH-sanctioned victory at Lernerville.
What won the race: Chad Ruhlman of Bemus Point, N.Y., rallied forward from his 13th starting position, needing just 10 laps to take the lead, and went on to earn a $2,000 Steel City Stampede victory in the RUSH Dirt Late Model Series season finale.
Quotable: "This is huge, "the 37-year-old Ruhlman said. "I've always wanted to win here. This is another Eldora to me. I feel bad the open motor broke for C.J. Rayburn because I felt like we had something for them in that, too."
Key notes: Bryce Davis led the opening lap before giving way to Jared Hawkins. ... Ruhlman took the lead from Hawkins on the 10th circuit and pulled away from the field over the remaining 20 laps, winning by over six seconds. ... Michael Lake took second on the 22nd lap. ... Mike Pegher Jr. was the apparent winner of the third heat race but weighed in light at the scales; he rebounded with a 21st-to-4th charge in the feature. ... Justin Lamb won the non-qualifiers' race. ... Russ King of Bristolville, Ohio, won the Super Late Model feature. ... The eight-division event drew 236 race cars overall.
On the move: The top-four finishers all started outside of the top 10. Josh Double and Ryan Montgomery rallied from the 12th row to record top-10 finishes.
Winner's sponsors: Ruhlman drives a Rayburn Race Car with a Custom Race Engine that is sponsored by Allstar Performance, Boldt Machinery, Car-Go Auto Parts, Fox's Pizza Den, House Doctor, Premier Communication, Rand, Sparton Tool Company and Sunoco Race Fuels.
Points chase: With his 10th-place finish, Ryan Montgomery of Fairmont, W.Va., unofficially clinched the RUSH championship.
