BUFFALO TWP — The beat goes on for Jason Meyers.

The Clovis, Calif., driver of the No. 14 Sprint car won for the fourth time in eight World of Outlaw features this season, claiming the 35-lap Commonwealth Clash Tuesday night at Lernerville Speedway.

Meyers took the lead from Terry McCarl on the 18th lap, lost it briefly to Jac Haudenschild four laps later during a bobble between turns 1 and 2, only to snatch the lead back for good before the end of the lap.

"There was a bit of a hole there between 1 and 2 and, every now and then, it got me," Meyers said. "I thought I was going to roll the car over early in the race."

Instead, he stayed on a roll and picked up the $10,000 first-place check.

Meyers started from the third position and stayed within the top three cars before making his move. He took the Outlaws points lead from Craig Dollansky with Tuesday's victory as well.

"The car was really tight at the start of the race, but we set up for the end of the race," Meyers said. "We try to hang around for the first 10 laps and then it kicks in."

McCarl's No. 24 car reached victory lane with Dean Jacobs behind the wheel in 2006 and he had visions of getting there himself Tuesday.

"I thought about that," McCarl said of Jacobs' win. "I felt like we had a great car tonight, but it turned out we had a second-place car."

Chad Kemenah started fifth and wound up third. He eventually got around Dale Blaney, who started alongside Haudenschild in the first row, but had little left for the other two frontrunners.

"This was an interesting track tonight," Kemenah said. "It was slick in the straightaways, choppy on the turns. But no one can complain about any racetrack the way the weather's been. We're just happy to get on a track."

The Outlaws Series already has suffered 10 rainouts.

"It's hardest on the budget because we still have to drive to all these places before the races get rained out," Meyers said. "And you do have to shake the rust off. You can prepare and condition all you want, but there's nothing like building up endurance behind the wheel during a race."

Meyers' win was his first career triumph on the Sarver track.

"We've been building toward this for a number of years," Meyers said. "We've taken our shares of seconds, thirds, fifths behind the Steve Kinsers and Danny Lasoskis. This happens in sports. We've been coming. Now, hopefully, we're here."

Haudenschild tried getting around Meyers on turn 3 of the 28th lap, but went too hard into the cushion and skidded off the track. Ed Lynch Jr. started ninth, but his night ended immediately when his car broke during the opening lap.

Lynch, Bob Felmlee and Butler's Brian Ellenberger were the only area drivers to qualify for the feature through the heat races. The top five finishers in each heat qualified.

Mike Lutz of Hermitage qualified for the feature by finishing third in the B-Main. The top four drivers qualified there.

Joey Saldana of Brownsburg, Ind., had the fast time of 12.813 seconds during time trials, but did not approach the track record of 12.334 he set in 2002. Lynch, Lernerville's all-time leader in Sprint wins with 89, was second-fastest at 12.828.

Mike Pegher Jr. of Wexford won the Crate Late Model feature.

The Outlaws return July 15 for the Don Martin Memorial Silver Cup XVI.
