Sarver, PA (August 24, 2012) Brian Swartzlander needed only to take a pair of green flags to lock up his record tying seventh Track Championship, but he iced the proverbial cake by scoring his third straight Diehl Mods feature win; the fifth of the season, 77

th of his career overall. Kevin Schaeffer secured his fourth Ti22 Sprint Championship with a strong second place finish to feature winner Danny Holtgraver. 2012 Track Champion Jared Miley was vacationing in Myrtle Beach while Michael Norris broke through for his first career feature win after passing Alex Ferree in lapped traffic mid-race in the Precise Late Models.
