In the Allan
Vigil Ford Pro Late Model 50-lap event, Rusty Clanton recorded
the fastest qualifying speed, then rolled a four on the dice, placing
him in the fourth starting position. This advanced Scotty Ellis to the
pole position with Korey Ruble joining him on the front row. When the
green flag waved, Ellis jumped out in the lead with Ruble and Clanton
close behind.
The three competitors
raced nose-to-tail and door-to-door in a heated battle for the top spot.
On lap 8, the fierce racing action closed in on a lap machine on the back
straight-away causing the top competitors to bunch up even closer, which
resulted in a spin and causing Clanton to make hard contact with the out
side retaining wall in turn four. While Clanton walked away from the incident,
his machine received considerable damage.
When racing
resumed, Ellis continued in the lead until lap 10, when Ruble was finally
able to make the pass for the top spot. Ruble would maintain the lead
the remaining laps, with Ellis, Frankie Farmer, Les Law and Darrell Bunn
finishing in the top five positions respectively.
The Aaron's
Pro Challenge Series continues to be one of the most competitive series
at Senoia Speedway. For the second week, Brian Sharp took the checkered
flag in commanding fashion in the caution filled 25-lap feature.
Kyle Kennedy
started the race from the pole with Sharp joining him on the front row.
When the green flag waved, Sharp blasted into the lead and maintained
the top spot for the remainder of the event. What continues to make this
division a fan favorite is that the drivers and team members maintain
these scale-down Winston Cup look-a-like machines in excellent condition.
In addition, there's a content battle for position throughout the impressive
field of machines.
Most recently,
several drivers have been pressuring Terry Mathis, who up until last week's
event, had recorded an impressive series of wins. However, if the fans
are observing the contest for the lead, or for fifth or sixth place position,
these drivers are competitive, and this series has evolved into a first-class
division, thanks to the drivers and team members who pour so much energy
into each and every lap.
In the Modified
Street Stock 20-lap feature, Larry Pierce started the race from the pole
with Steve Woodward joining him on the front row. When the green flag
waved, Pierce jumped out to an early lead with Woodward and Steven Barker
close behind. Pierce would remain the race leader until lap 9, when Woodward
made the pass for the lead. Woodward would continue to show the way and
take the checkered flag, followed by Pierce, Barker, Jamie Nicholson and
Larry Pierce, Jr.
Tony Yawn,
Jr., started in the fourth place position in the Legends Pro/Master event,
and emerged the winner. Yawn, Jr., passed Cindy Anderson for the lead
on lap 5 and maintained the top spot for the remaining laps of the event.
Yawn, Jr., and Anderson were followed by Virgi Brown and Ted Studley respectively.
In the Legends
Semi Pro event, Adam Quattlebaum started the race from the pole with Aaron
Brooks joining him on the front row. When the green flag waved, Brooks
blasted into the lead and maintained the top spot until lap 8 when Quattlebaum
made the pass for the lead. Quattlebaum would continue to lead the event
until lap 18 when a spin occurred in turn 2 involving Brooks. When the
green flag waved on the restart, Bubba Harry took over the top Spot along
with another checkered flag to add to his impressive collection thus far
this season.
In the OPTECH
Bandolero 15 lap event, Casey Roderich lead the event flag-to-flag to
take the win. Roderich was followed closely by: Bre Sharp, Marci Bristol
and John Wm. Lee.
Andy Cash led
the Sportsman 25-lap feature from flag-to-flag with Rod Williford following
close behind. Trey White and Paul Benefield battled for the third place
position lap-after-lap, with White finally making the pass on lap 14.
In the Modified
Mini Stock event, Shon Adams started the race from the pole, joined by
Mike Chambers on the front row. When the green flag waved, Chambers jumped
out to an early lead and appeared to be on his way to victory lane. However,
on lap 6, Adams passed Chambers for the lead and began to pull away. Chambers
continued to close the distance on Adams and regained the top spot on
lap 16 and went on to take the win.
