KRANTZ ON TOP: DARREN KRANTZ JR. EARNS THIRD STRAIGHT WIN

By Sam Tully


For the third week straight to start off the season, Darren Krantz Jr. drove his #31 Bandolero Bandit to the top step in victory lane. Krantz, who rolled off the grid in fifth place, made haste towards the front of the field and took the lead by lap four, and remained the leader for the rest of the 15-lap feature.


Milania Shilosky was once again Krantz’s closest challenger of the night, working her way up to second by lap three, hot on the heels of Krantz all the while. When the checkered flag waved, Shilosky trailed Krantz by just 0.427 at the line, locking in her third straight second place finish of the season.


Ryan Vanasse Jr. brought his Bandolero Bandit home in third place, making the top-three identical to last week’s feature.Collin Vanasse would break the trend, finishing closely behind his cousin Ryan in fourth, with a mere 0.409 seconds separating the two at the line. Nick Uhrig Jr., who sat on pole to start the 15-lapper, rounded out the top five. 


Sam Macedo finished sixth, followed by Allyha DeSomma, Bryson, Robidoux, Zacarias Kelley, and Luka Dib, who rounded out the top 10.


The Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Bandit division will return to the track on Friday, June 10 for another 15-lap feature. For tickets, visit SeekonkSpeedway.com and follow the track on all social media for the latest updates.
