Max Blair picked up his third RUSH touring victory of the season.
What won the race: Fourth-starting Max Blair of Centerville, Pa., overtook race-long leader Chub Frank on the 13th lap Sunday at Eriez Speedway and raced to his third Sweeney Cars RUSH Series victory of the season. Blair snapped the three-race series winning streak of Jeremy Wonderling, who finished fourth.
Quotable: "(Frank) was one of my heroes growing up," Blair said. "Racing with him is awesome, and any time you can pass him for the win is even better. ... I knew there was no way he was going to let me get under him so I had to catch him by surprise."
Key notes: Blair's first two series victories came on back-to-back nights in Delaware as the series opened the season in mid-April at Delaware International Speedway and Georgetown Speedway. ... Blair also won the Super Late Model feature at Eriez. ... Polesitter Breyton Santee slipped back to finish sixth. ... Kurt Stebbins spun to draw a lap-20 caution. ... The RUSH event was a makeup of a May 19 rainout.
On the move: Jason Genco of Frewsburg, N.Y., started 12th and finished seventh.
