Allen Leads Flag-to-Flag to Score Fayetteville Victory in 5th Annual Ed Gibbons Memorial Race

by Mark Huey
FAYETTEVILLE, NC (March 23) - In the 50th Carolina Clash event all-time at Fayetteville Motor Speedway, Tim Allen took the lead on the opening lap and fought in and out of traffic to end his Carolina Clash winless streak that goes back to October 2009. The win was his second at Fayetteville and 5th all time on tour. Allen in his Warrior Race Car and Gray Motorsports entry was awesome fast. Johnny Pursley started the race from the pole position as he was the fastest qualifier for the event. Pursley was not able to get up to speed on the initial start and he settled into the third position. Allen and the leaders had to race in and out of lapped traffic at lap 12, when the first caution of the race flew in turns one and two, when a five car spin brought the race to yellow.

Allen resumed his dominance over the course of the next few restarts and was never challenged. Scott Autry was able to pass two cars from his 5th starting spot to run third. The spectacle of the event was when Kennie Compton started a charge through the field from the 10th position on the outside of the 4/10 mile track. Compton was able to pass five cars under green flag conditions and settled in to finish fourth. Ross Bailes rounded out the top five on the field.
