On lap 31,
Ellis experienced a flat tire which brought out a caution. Following quick
attention from his crew, Ellis returned to the speedway and began to work
his way back up through the field.
On lap 50,
a mandatory caution was displayed which allowed the driver's to come into
the pits for tires while maintaining their position. When the green flag
waved, Kitttle continued to lead the event until Sanders took the inside
line and made the pass for the lead on lap 53. The running order on lap
53 was Sanders, Kittle, Clanton and Hansard.
Ellis, who has served notice to Senoia's veteran Late Model drivers that
he arrived as a big league driver, had worked his way back up through
the field and moved into the fourth place position. The running order
would remain the same for the remaining laps with Sanders taking the checkered
flag.
In another
hotly contested event of the evening, the Legends Semi Pro drivers presented
the fans with a thrilling contest. Bubba Harry has been the consistent
winner of this division all season as follow competitors Doc Lee, Aaron
Brooks, Adam Quattlebaum, Chris Cable and Matt Cox battle for the remaining
top positions.
On this occasion,
Lee stated the race from the pole, with Harry joining him on the front
row. When the green flag waved, Harry jumped out front and seemed to be
establishing his consistent strategy of commanding the lead position.
However, Lee battled back on the second lap and took over the lead position
only to have Harry capture the top position on lap 5.
Harry would
continue in the lead until lap 11 when Lee dove low in turn two and made
the pass while racing down the back straight-away. During the finally
five laps of the event, the two drivers battling door-to-door, swapping
the lead back-and-forth as they blasted out of the corners. Doc Lee finally
found an advantage, and took the win, ending an impressive winning series
In the other
division races, Mike Chambers took the Modified Mini Stock event, and
Andy Cash won the Sportsman contest.Doug Ludwig won the Legend Pro event,
which was interrupted by a frightening crash on the front straight-away
involving Scott mosely and Tony Yawn, Jr. On lap 19 of the event, the
two machines made contact as they exited turn four while battling for
the third place position. Yawn, Jr.'s machine turned sideways as he approached
the start finish line and Mosely made hard contact with Yawn Jr., catapulting
Mosley's machine airborne and end-over-end, finally coming to rest on
its side just short of turn one.
Speedway officials
rushed to check the two drivers, who reported that they were uninjured
in the incident. Speedway Director Lyn White advised on-track officials
to have both driver's checked by the speedway's medical staff as a precaution.
While the two machines sustained extensive damage, but the drivers were
