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.
