Miley Storms to $3,000 UFo Win at “Connor Bobik Make-A-Wish Race” at Dog Hollow!

Strongstown, PA — Jared Miley became the sixth different winner in six races on the 2015 UFo Championship Circuit by winning the 5th annual “Connor Bobik Make-A-Wish Race” at Dog Hollow Speedway Sunday night. The race returned to its birthplace after two years at America’s Motorsports Park. The Bobik family raised over $7,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation with this event.

Jared “the Jet” Miley capped off a three-peat weekend after winning $3,000 in the 41-lap Connor Bobik Memorial for the UFo Super Late Models sponsored by Townsend Gas & Oil at the track. Miley, who started eighth, quickly shot into the lead on lap three. Michael Altobelli led the opening two laps before falling back to second.

Once out front Miley showed why he is called the jet as he soared away from the back and started lapping cars on lap 17. After a lap four caution, the race went 23 straight laps before the second yellow appeared. On the restart, Altobelli had nothing for the South Park driver. Miley again began to pull away until a couple more cautions were thrown. Scott Rhodes took second away from Altobelli after a restart on lap 31. Rhodes had two chances to overtake Miley on double file restarts on laps 34 and 36, but could not muster enough power to catch the high flying Miley.

Behind Miley and Rhodes were Dan Angelicchio, 10th starting Devin Friese and 11th starting Dylan Yoder. Sixth through tenth were Dan Stone, 12th starting Justin Kann, Altobelli, 14th starting Dwayne Taneyhill, and George Lee.

Heats for the 30 car field went to Charles Powell, Jr., Altobelli, Miley, and Friese. Andrew Wylie won the B-Main. Once again the top four UFo point contenders finished within four positions of each other as Friese leads Kann, Yoder, and Altobelli in the tightest point battle in UFo history.

The next UFo Championship event will be back at Dog Hollow Speedway on Friday, August 7. The “Sam Barley Championship” will pay $3,000 to win for a 41 lap UFo Super Late Model feature.

A change in the UFo provisional procedure will begin at this event. A driver must have 50% event attendance during the season to be eligible for a UFo provisional. If no drivers are eligible, the next driver(s) in the consolation will fill in the field.
