Last Friday was a night of first, as in first time winners.

Jim Witko Jr. and his wife Barb have been making the 150-mile one-way trip from their Clarks Summit, PA home for 12 years. After coming close to victory lane many times only to come up short they finally erased all the heartbreak with their first ever big block modified win after a spirited battle with Andrew Ferguson.

Stephen Denton (Sportsman) and Dakota Bechler (4-Cylinders) also picked up their first Brewerton wins. Casey Sykes went to victory lane for the second time in the Mod Lites.
