Last

Saturday, the Southern All Stars invaded Senoia Speedway

for a special Late Model Series race. Scott Griffin of

Tyrone led for 108 laps until his car could go no

further.

The first

107 laps we had them all covered, said Griffin the 1999

fourth place points championship finisher. We made a

decision not to take on tires hoping for a long green

race like last year. It just didn't go in our favor.

Everybody else came in and got tires and then ours went

away quick. The brakes went out about the lap 106 and the

tires right after that because I didn't have anyway to

slow it down entering the corners.

Griffin

finished the race in sixth place, while Ronnie Sanders of

Fayetteville placed third. Other local finishers included

John Davis of Senoia at 12th, Allen karnes of Shapsburg

at 14th and Newnan's Roger Delp at 16th.

In the

Sportsman division, John Bell of Senoia captured his

second win of the season. Andy Cash of Brooks, the

Sportsman division points leader and last week's winner,

placed second. Mark Lore of Senoia placed fourth.

The Street

Stock division had several local winners as well. Mike

Steffen of Fayetteville placed second, while Mark Lore,

the points leader in Street Stock, placed third. Ted

Willingham of Senoia placed fourth.

The action

continues this Saturday and every Saturday.
