Pegher scores first win of the season at Lernerville

SARVER, PA (May 15) - Jared Miley came hungry for his first Lernerville super late model win of the season and jetted out to the early lead. Meanwhile, behind him Mike Pegher Jr and Alex Ferree were setting their sights on joining the battle being separated only by Todd Bachmann running second. Miley carried the momentum around the top of the race track from the get go and looked destined for victory lane.

Miley was in another zip code by the time the first caution flag waved for Brian Swartzlander on lap three following a spin in turn four. When action resumed, Dan Swartzlander took advantage of a brilliant restart to take second from Bachmann and Tommy Beck followed suit just moments later to join the top three.

Miley then began, rolling up a two and ha half second advantage with eight laps in the books as the race for second began to heat up between Dan Swartzlander and Beck with both competitors using the high groove. Beck then caught the cushion in the front stretch and brought out the caution on lap 13.

On the restart, Miley took Pegher Jr with him around Swartzlander and into the second spot as Ferree wrested third place from Swartzlander. However, ahead of them, Miley kept adding to his lead, putting a whole straightaway between himself and Pegher in the process and looked as if he'd never be caught though Pegher Jr would have other ideas.

The driver of the #1 Cochran machine used an outstanding restart following a caution on lap 22 to rocket past Miley who would make one last gasp effort on the final set of turns to dive underneath the eventual winner which came up short. And when the checkered flag fell, Pegher Jr had held on to collect his first victory of 2015

"Obviously Jared was in a different zip code and I was just looking to hang on tonight," Pegher Jr remarked. "I thought we were alright, we definitely could have been a little bit better, but I guess lady luck was on our side tonight."
