WEEDSPORT, N.Y. – Matt Sheppard took down yet another victory during Sunday night’s Super DIRTcar Series Hall of Fame 100 at New York’s Weedsport Speedway.

Sheppard starred in the 100-lap event, starting fourth but taking the lead from Billy Whittaker on a lap-21 restart. Once out in front, Sheppard never trailed again, defeating Erick Rudolph for his sixth series win of the year and third in the last four races.

The seven-time Super DIRTcar champion lapped all but the top eight drivers and took the checkered flag a whopping 9.619 seconds ahead of Rudolph in the end.

“This car was just unreal tonight,” said Sheppard after his 22nd-career big-block modified win at Weedsport, tied for seventh most in track history. “We didn’t time trial well … in fact, it was probably our worst qualifying effort of the year and worst one here in a long time. We were faster on lap 100, though, than what we were then and that’s what counts.

“The key to this place is to be able to move around, and we did just that tonight.”

Polesitter Mat Williamson, Jimmy Phelps and Larry Wight completed the top five.

The finish:

1. 9S – Matt Sheppard, 2. 25 – Erick Rudolph, 3. 88 – Mat Williamson, 4. 98H – Jimmy Phelps, 5. 99L – Larry Wight, 6. 32R – Ronnie Davis III, 7. 91 – Billy Decker, 8. 5H – Chris Hile, 9. 21J – Danny Johnson, 10. 35 – Mike Mahaney, 11. 109 – Billy Whittaker, 12. 21A – Peter Britten, 13. 26 – Ryan Godown, 14. M1 – Dave Marcuccilli, 15. 3B – Chad Brachman, 16. 42P – Pat Ward, 17. 111 – Demetrios Drellos, 18. 70R – Ryan Arbuthnot, 19. 2L – Jack Lehner, 20. 37 – Paul St. Sauveur, 21. 2R – Rusty Smith, 22. 49 – Billy Dunn, 23. 23 – Kyle Coffey, 24. 83 – Tim Sears Jr., 25. 63 – Adam Roberts, 26. 14J – Alan Johnson.
