Bradenton<\/strong>, Fl. The weather was perfect for a night of ASA sanctioned racing at the \u201cHigh Banks\u201d of DeSoto super Speedway and the fans in attendance were in store for another awesome night featuring the return of the High Powered TBARA Winged Sprints.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The \u201cFour Wide\u201d salute to the fans had the crowd on its feet as the field prepared for the action packed thirty-lap feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The green dropped and it was a wild scramble for position. Coming out of turn two on the first lap the cars of Ben Fritz and Shane Butler went spinning into the infield bringing out the caution. Both drivers were able to continue. Butler would come back and finish fifth Fritz would take eighth on the evening. <\/strong><\/p>\n

When the race was restarted it would be thirty-laps of green side by side racing for the rest of the feature. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Up front pole sitter Keith Butler would hold onto his top spot but just before the halfway point Dude Teate would come from his eighth starting spot and challenge for the lead. Teate would flex his muscles and make the pass on lap sixteen and pull away from the field.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meanwhile all eyes were on \u201cthe Superman\u201d Dave Steele who was making his return to DeSoto as he sliced and diced his way up through the field. Steele would get around second place Butler on lap nineteen but with eleven laps left there was almost a full straightaway between himself and the leader. <\/strong><\/p>\n

With seven lapped cars and laps winding down it would make sense to settle in and be happy with a solid second place run over a great field of drivers but then there is a reason they call him Superman.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With only a handful of laps to go the fans were on their feet as Steele had closed to within a car length of Teate and as the duo went under the white flag Steele was inches away from the leaders push bar. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Steele made several moves to get around Teate and was nearly beside him on the inside coming out of turn four but Dude held his line and roared to the checkered flag. Butler would take third, Larry Brazil Jr. would come from tenth for a hard fought forth and rounding out the top five was Shane Butler.<\/strong><\/p>\n
