Harli White wins 22nd Annual Run for the Rabbit at Limaland

The fans at Limaland Motorsports Park had waited since August of 2019 to see sprint cars return to the 1/4 mile bullring, and they were treated to an amazing night of racing. Lindsay, Oklahoma's Harli White piloted the Ed Neumeister No. 11N to victory in the 22nd running of the Run for the Rabbit for the K&L Ready Mix Sprint Invaders. No. 65 Todd Sherman picked up his 50th career Northwest Physical Therapy UMP Modified victory. Lima, Ohio's Tony Anderson bagged his 49th career Bud Thunderstock victory, and 54th feature win at Limaland overall.

Kicking off racing action were the Northwest Physical Therapy UMP Modifieds. No. 9C Troy Cattarene and Todd Sherman would make up the front row, with Sherman grabbing the lead out of turn 2. The next 4 cars somehow ran 4 wide thru turns 3 and 4 with No. 16 Jeff Koz grabbing second. Multiple cautions would mar the 20 lap feature with Koz getting caught up in a lap 16 skirmish with a lapped car that would end his night. Sherman would cruise to his 50th career Limaland UMP Modified victory over No. 3W Dylan Woodling, No. 34x Shane O'Connor, No. T5X Bub Roberts, and No. 11H Mike Hohlbein.

Next up was the 25 lap K&L Ready Mix NRA Sprint Invaders feature honoring Limaland Legend Travis "The Rabbit" Miller. No. 49 Shawn Dancer and No. 17 Jared Horstman would bring the field to green with Horstman grabbing the lead briefly until caution would wave for No. 2 Ricky Peterson failing a slide job attempt on Dancer that saw the No. 49 get into the wall in turn 4 and Peterson pick up top wing damage. A complete restart would see Harli White inherit the pole position and she didn't waste the opportunity. White would take off with the lead and try to stretch it out over Horstman. The leaders would find themselves in lapped traffic on lap 6 and Horstman began to close on the leader. On lap 11, No. 2S Kyle Sauder spun in turn 4, right in front of the leaders, was able to do a 360 and the race stayed green. Horstman got as close as 2 car lengths multiple times to White while the 2 worked lapped traffic, until caution waved on lap 19 for a spinning No 22M of Dan McCarron, and No. 27w Tyler Gunn, setting up for a final restart. White took advantage of the clear track to pull away for the victory, the first for a female in NRA Sprint Invader competition, and the first for White at Limaland. No. 22L Connor Leoffler would charge late to finish 2nd, with No. 22H Randy Hannagan 3rd, Ricky Peterson would hang on to finish 4th, and Horstman fading to complete the top 5.

Finishing up the nights racing action were the Bud Thunderstocks in their 15 lap A Main. No. 23 Casey Barr and No. 7c Jordan Conover would lead the field to green, with No. 22T Tony Anderson heading to the bottom and Conover up high to split around Barr. Barr would have problems early after contact with the No. 7W of Dan Wooten. Barr would lose some sheet metal on the track, bringing out the caution and sending him to the tail. Anderson would pull out to the lead on the restart over Conover, who immediately had to deal with a charging Todd Sherman, piloting the No. 60 Thunderstock. Sherman would get by Conover on lap 6 and closed to Anderson's rear bumper. He would run out of time as Anderson would take the checkers and nab his 49th career Limaland Bud Thunderstock victory, and his 54th career Limaland victory overall. Sherman would settle for second with No. 57 Jeffrey Jessup 3rd, Conover 4th, and No. 74D Craig Dippman completing the top 5.
