In Sportsman
action, Andy Cash started on the inside front row with Steve Payton in
the outside pole position. Alan Kimball started third and Charles White
started fourth. In accordance with track rules, Rod Williford, the last
feature winner in the Sportsman division, started in the eight slot. On
lap four, Williford caught White and the pair traded sheet metal until
White suffered a flat tire on lap five. White drove into the pits for
new rubber and was ready to go on the caution lap. The finishing order
had Payton taking first, Williford second, Cash third, Kimball fourth
and Mark Lore fifth. However, Cash was protested and a post race inspection
found him to be illegal. With Cash suffering a DQ, the payoff sheet saw
Payton still in first, Williford second, Alan Kimball third, Mark Lore
fourth and Billy Kimball fifth.
In Street-Stocks,
Mark Lore was on the pole with Jason Turner in the outside front row spot.
Landon DeGraff started third, Toby Bowden fourth, Larry Pierce in fifth
and Robbie Gober started in sixth. At the drop of the green, racers were
three wide entering turn one. Pierce took advantage of the situation and
bolted to the head of the pack. On the third lap, Pierce went high entering
turn three, thereby allowing both Lore and Gober to slide by on the inside.
On the next lap, Gober motored by Lore and took the lead. Although Lore,
Pierce and Turner each tried to run down the leader, none could do so
and Gober went home with another victory. The finish saw Gober first,
Lore second, Pierce third, Turner fourth and DeGraff fifth.
Mini-Stock
racing saw drivers competing for double points and double first place
money. Troy French sat on the pole and maintained the lead until a rain
delay moved all the cars off the track. With racing once again underway,
French took the lead, with Ty Stewart, Mike Chambers and Stephen Adams
right on his heels. On lap 5, Stewart moved by French and on the seventh
circuit Chambers and French were running side-by-side and trading sheet
metal. As the pair exited turn two, each suffered a flat tire. Both racers
made it out of the caution without losing a lap but the other racers began
charging hard. The results saw Stewart taking first, Hamilton second,
Chambers third, Stephen Adams fourth and Sam Adams fifth.
In Legends
Group A racing, Andy James was on the pole, with Scott Tinsley on the
outside pole. On Lap 9, Andrew Posser spun due to a slick racing surface,
and cars were ordered to pit row while wreckers began circling the track.
Shortly, the track was again dry and racing resumed. The payoff sheet
saw Stevens first, James second, Tinsley third, Perry fourth and Andrew
Posser fifth.
Legends Group
B saw Bobby East use his pole starting position to quickly take the lead,
with Cindy Anderson right on his bumper, followed by Michelle Theriault,
Bubba Harry and Ron Johnson. On lap three, Doug Ludwig, passed Johnson
going into turn three and then maneuvered around Harry as the two exited
turn four. While Anderson continued to dog East, Ludwig repeatedly tried
to pass Theriault. On lap 16, Ludwig managed to pull of the pass, only
to see the checkered wave before he could catch East and Anderson. East
took the win with Anderson second, Ludwig third, Theriault fourth and
Johnson fifth.
Dale Akridge
edged out Lloyd Whittenburg for the win in Roadsters. 15 year old Trey
Maughan from Peachtree City, Georgia got the victory in Bandolero, with
Sharpsburg's 15 year old Matt Peoples finishing second. Third went to
Brian Sharp, with Adam Akridge fourth and Heather Whittenburg fifth.

They utilize 25 square foot wings on top and six square foot nose wings
for traction and stability. Their tires are also bigger, usually 18 inches
wiode for traction. The cars travel in excess of 125 miles an hour.
