Josh Grabs Another Top Five at Bridgeport
July 9 2011; Mertztown, PA . . .
After Friday nights rainout at Big Diamond Raceway, Josh and the team headed to Bridgeport Speedway to race Saturday night.  Due to his win the week before, Josh started his heat race in the sixth position and advanced one spot to finish fifth in the eight lap heat race event. 

Josh’s fifth place finish in the first heat race event, started him in the thirteenth position for the feature.  On the initial start, Josh drop back a few position, but after a few laps of green flag racing, he was able to pick those spots back up as well as advance a few more before the race was marred with a few yellow flags in a row.  Once the race finally resumed green flag racing, which it went non stop from lap seven on, Josh was able to pick off a few more cars and found himself in the second position with five laps remaining.  The third place car was closing quickly on Josh as they raced through lapped traffic.  The first lap car the came upon worked in Josh’s favor as he was able to make the pass and get some distance again between him and the third place car, however the next lapped car did not work out in Josh’s favor.  Josh was unable to maneuver around this competitor as easily and the third place car once again caught up with Josh and was able to make the pass before Josh could. Josh crossed the line in the third position, giving him his second top five in a row.
