Sheils outduels Missler for Late Model win at Attica Raceway Park

ATTICA, OH (June 15) - In the Summit Racing Equipment UMP Late Model feature, defending track champion Ryan Missler and opening night winner Devin Shiels battled throughout the 25-lap affair. When Missler slipped up ever so slightly with two laps to go, Shiels pounced and went on to win by a fender. It was his second feature win of his career and the season at Attica .

“I’m glad that last caution came out (with five laps to go). We just kept pushing those tires in as far as we could…I actually thought I had something broke in the right front cause there was so many bumps getting into turn three. I just stayed with it. I thought he (Missler) would go to the high side for sure. I couldn’t believe he went to the low side and he was doing pretty good until that last lap,” said Shiels beside his Rally’s Hamburgers, Dundee Products, Good Lifts, Magic Fountain Auto Wash backed #51.

“It’s really been getting good draws here and at Oakshade. I can’t believe it. My wife is pregnant and we’re going to have to call it a season a little early…maybe she’ll let me come back a couple of times,” added Shiels.

Missler and Shiels would pace the field to the green in the late model feature, which was slowed over the early stages by numerous cautions. Before a lap could be recorded, Bob Mayer would spin. On the second try, Missler and Shiels would race side by side for the lead with Ernie Haynes, Dave Hornikel, Dusty Moore and Dan Wallace in pursuit.

After two laps were in, a multi-car pile-up involving Brandon Perkins, Chester Fitch, Nate Potts and Mayer would bring the action to a halt. On the restart, Missler and Shiels again resumed their tremendous battle for the lead with Moore now moving into third with Haynes, Justin Chance and a charging John Mayes Jr. in tow. Another caution on lap five for debris would keep the leaders away from traffic.

Each restart would see Missler and Shiels battle side by side for the lead with Moore glued to their rear bumper while Haynes, Chance, Mayes, Hornikel and Jeff Babcock waging a tremendous race for fourth. Following another caution for debris on lap 7, Steve Sabo would spin on lap 9 for the fifth caution of the race.

On the restart, Missler pulled away slightly from Shiels and Moore, But Mayes and Haynes would get together on the front stretch on lap 10, sending Haynes spinning for another caution. This time on the restart, Shiels stayed glued to Missler with Moore , Mayes, Babcock, Chance and Dan Wallace giving chase. As the race finally got going, Missler, Shiels and Moore would race in close quarters while Chance, Mayes, Babcock and Wallace had a good battle for fourth.

The final caution flew with five laps to go when Babcock suffered mechanical woes and coasted to a stop. On the restart, as they had the entire race, Missler and Shiels battled side-by-side for the lead with Moore trying to hold off Chance and Mayes for third. As they came to the line to complete the 23rd lap, Shiels had gained the lead by a nose. Shiels and Missler literally raced door to door over the next two laps with Shiels taking the win by a nose over Missler while Moore , Chance and Mayes rounded out the top five.
