May 14, 2023- Anthony Macri has been doing a lot of traveling this season, but returned to Selinsgrove Speedway Sunday night where he’s had a lot of success recently.
The 23-year-old from Dillsburg started on the pole and led all 25 laps of the Ray Tilley Classic for the sprint cars earning $5,000 for his second straight win in the event, and sixth Selinsgrove win in the past three seasons.
At one point, he had a 6-second lead, although Danny Dietrich applied some pressure following a late-race restart, it was all Macri at the front.
“There’s something about this place and the set-up we have figured out for his place is pretty good and really easy to drive,” Macri said. “I really wasn’t trying to push that hard at the beginning. I wanted to save some for the end.”
Rico Abreu passed Tyler Ross for third. Ross completed a solid night in fourth. Justin Whittall completed the top five. Dylan Cisney, Devon Borden, Michael Walter II, Austin Bishop and Jason Shultz rounded out the top 10.
Ross set quick time over the 23-car field with a lap of 17.051. Abreu, Macri and Walter won the heat races.
