Double duty for Peel, comes home with Vintage checkers!
Kevin Peel
had a busy night this past Saturday at South Alabama Speedway.
Not only was he in his familiar black #18 Modified car, but he
also ran the red #6 Vintage car normally driven by Clint
Boggs. Overall it was a successful night for the Chipley, FL
driver.
In the
modified feature, Peel came from his 7th place starting
position to 5th at the end of the first lap. He would then
find himself in a tight five car battle for the second spot.
Towards the end of the race, the car's handling would start to
go away. He would manage to hold on to a strong 4th place
finish.
The vintage
feature was picture perfect for Peel. He drew the 6th starting
position, and quickly showed he was the car to beat, passing
three cars on the very first lap. After just two laps, Kevin
found himself in the second spot, chasing down Vintage
division master Teddy Sasser. The battle with Sasser wouldn't
last long, as peel make a great move to capture the lead just
four laps into the race. He would cruise to victory nearly
uncontested.
