Cup Series: He Shoot Coca-Cola - 30 May 2013 - National Sim Racing Association

The Chase is now down to just 3 races and drivers are running out of time to try and claim the championship. The series headed to Martinsville, site of the most cautions in one race, for the Goody's Headache Relief 150. Mike Tellier won the pole but Tony Pizzaro was able to take the lead. After a pair of early yellows pit strategy came into play with drivers not needing to refuel to make the distance but tires were a factor. Mike Tellier only took two tires while Tony Pizzaro took four, giving Tellier track position. Tellier continued to lead with Mark Murphy in tow. Pizzaro was making his way up towards to the front though, working his way around championship contenders Steven Davis and Zach Michael. Pizzaro was able to catch Tellier after about 40 laps of working his way back up to the front. He was then able to take the lead for good. The race continued into it's 110+ green flag run to end the race with all of the drivers conserving tires, some even pitted. Zach Michael was gaining ground quick on Mark Murphy for 3rd but overdrove one of the turns and fell back too far. Pizzaro was able to hang on for the win with Mike Tellier 2nd and Mark Murphy narrowly getting 3rd.

Congrats to Tony on his win and thanks to all for racing! Very clean run with only two yellows in 150 laps. See you all Monday for Trucks at Phoenix and next Wednesday for Cup at Texas, only two races to go in both series!!
