Lucas Duncan Takes First Career Limited Sportsman Win, & $2,000 Payday, At Albany-Saratoga

Story By: TOM BOGGIE / ALBANY-SARATOGA SPEEDWAY – MALTA, NY – The Limited Sportsman division got special treatment Saturday night at Albany-Saratoga Speedway, getting a 35-lap feature instead of the usual 20, and battling for a sponsor-inflated purse of $2,000 to win.
The victory, and the two grand payday, went to Lucas Duncan, who recorded his first career win.
But the 35-lap feature was marred by a rash of yellow flags, and when the 11th caution came out on a restart on lap 33, DIRTcar flagger Dave Farney was instructed to throw the yellow and checkered flags at the same time.
Duncan, who started on the outside pole, took the lead away from pole-sitter Nick Auspelmyer after a restart on lap two and then just had to be patient and hit his marks on restarts. Chase Zimmer, who started 12th, finished second while 2024 limited sportsman champion Nick Brundige nosed out Auspelmyer for third.
