By Charlie Brown, Delmar, DE – 07/12/2008 Richard Jarvis, Jr. saw his hopes for a win disappear when he suffered a flat tire while leading Thursday night’s Camp Barnes Benefit. On Saturday night at Delaware International all of his tires stayed inflated and he was able to hold off Ricky Elliott to take the win.

Bob Geiger had looked impressive in winning his heat started on the pole in the 20-lap main. Geiger fought off the challenges of Kevin Scott, Jr. for the first three laps before Richard Jarvis, Jr. moved into second.

Jarvis went to the point on the fifth circuit dragging Ricky Elliott into second and the chase was on. At the halfway sign Jarvis held a one car length lead over Elliott with Geiger still strong in third. Staci Warrington had gotten by Scott, Jr. after a great wheel to wheel battle and Ross Robinson had moved into third.

Jarvis was just a tick faster than Elliott in the second half and was able to hold off his challenges. A caution was out on the final lap setting up a one lap shoot-out by Jarvis held on to post his fourth win of the year in the Mid-Coastal Siding/Rocket. Elliott finished in the second spot with Warrington getting by Robinson with three to go to finish in third. Fourth went to Robinson and Hal Browning, who started in 13th passed Kenny Pettyjohn on the final lap to round out the top five. Heats were won by Geiger and Scott, Jr.
