It was an exciting night and also an exciting points battle
that came down to the wire at Phillips County Raceway on September 19th. Belec
started the night as the points leader but just by one point over teammate
Ursetta. After starting fifth in a heat race full of cautions, Eddie crossed the
line third at the checkered flag with the car in one piece.
Starting inside of his teammate in the fourth row would make
for a very exciting conclusion to the tightest points battle of the season.
Early on the 3b was moving through the field nicely, getting up to the third
position before the halfway mark. Just before the crossed flags, Belec drove
into turn one too hard trying to follow his teammate to the front and spun out
ending his chances at the title. After restarting in the rear of the field, he
was able to fight his way up to the sixth spot at the finish respectively.
