New Egypt, NJ (May 4, 2008) – George Abt of Bangor, PA drove to his
first victory at New Egypt Speedway on Sunday afternoon in the 20
lap
Keystone Legends Tour feature event. Abt started 2nd, but fell back
as far as 15th at the halfway point of the race. Then he discovered
the outside groove and charged back to the front in crowd pleasing
fashion taking the victory on the final lap. Abt had the crowd on
their feet as he passed the top 3 over the final three laps bringing
second place finisher Paul Rochelle with him on the outside. For the
final 3 laps, you could have thrown a blanket over the top five. Tim
Henry nosed out Tim Tomson for third, and Stephen Nederostek was
fifth. (READ MORE)

After a cloudy start, fog began rolling in about an hour into the
show accompanied by a light mist which steadily became heavier
throughout qualifying. As the feature events began, the mist became
too heavy to allow competition to continue safely and management was
left no choice but to pull the plug. (READ MORE)
