Moyer Jr. Sweeps Capital City Clash at Heartland Park Topeka



TOPEKA, Kans. (October 7) - After leading the first 13 laps of Saturday's Lucas Oil MLRA event at Heartland Park Topeka, Billy Moyer Jr. was held up in lap traffic and John Anderson took the lead on lap 14. He would remain out front until contact between he and Robbie Andersen on lap 37 would warrant a late race yellow, handing the top spot back to Moyer. "I was real patient in traffic and he got me like that," said Moyer Jr. of the early pass by Anderson. "As bad as we've been, I wanted to win so bad I can't stand it. To get two of these is awesome."

Anderson pulled to the pit area, and rejoined the field just before the final restart went green. He finished 11th in the final rundown. Al Purkey's 3rd place finish, puts both he and Anderson tied for the point lead with just two races remaining in the season.

Heat race victories went to Al Purkey, Billy Moyer Jr. and John Anderson. Next weekend the Lucas Oil MLRA will crown the 2011 champion at West Plains Motor Speedway.
