Oswego, NY - Dave Shullick Jr. has been in an up and down battle with Mike Lichty for the 2016 ISMA point title most of the season. At Delaware Speedway on Aug. 19, Shullick lost the point lead to Mike Lichty when Lichty won the event and Shoe II finished down the line in 15th. Saturday night at Oswego Speedway the roles reversed as Lichty suffered a broken torque arm ladder in his heat while Shullick went on to grab the lead of the Bud Light SuperNationals from Tim Jedrzejek on lap 39 and took the win. Lichty had tried to start the 60lapper but failed, crediting the 84 with last place. For Shullick Jr. it was his third win in the Classic weekend event, and sixth victory overall in Oswego winged competition. The win was Shullick's 19th career win in ISMA, his fifth this season and moved into sole possession of the seventh spot on the ISMA All-Time win list. Said the North Ridgeville, Ohio driver after his win, “It was a good race. Early we were really tight. I was just waiting for the car to free up a little bit. Timmy looked like he got a little loose and we were able to capitalize and get underneath him. With Timmy behind me knowing he has had some heroics here in the past with Mike, I knew he's good at pulling one off. You have to think about that. So we just had to give it all we had, especially on those restarts, one after another, after another. I just tried to be flawless as much as we could. Fortunately it worked out for us tonight. When we had that red I was really concerned about the car vapor locking. It hasn't vapor locked, but it happened to Otto at the Hy-Miler. I was thinking about the whole time. I was hoping it would restart and I was very happy when it did. It
