Welcome back from the week long break! It is now crunch time for drivers and crews to get themselves ready with just six weeks left in the season. The 1,074th race in the history of one of the longest NASCAR-sanctioned series was witnessed in front of a crowd of 7,000 with the threat of storms. The night still went on.
In the 20-lap race in the Law Offices of John Barrow Street Stock Series, Nate Gregg won his second race of the season as it was called due to time limit, Billy Gregg second, David Creed finished third and Chris Allison was fourth.
The first 20-lap race in the McDowell Heating & Air Series went without a caution, and Chase Robertson was able to pick up his second career win in the first race of two for Sportsman. Connor Branch was second, Riley Neal was third, and Dylan Ward was fourth. In the second Sportsman race, Zack Ore would outlast Tommy Neal, Kyle Southern finished 3rd and Zack Clifton finished 4th.
Burt Myers would seem to have picked up a Golden Horseshoe as his luck continued. Myers picked his second win of the season ending his winless streak two weeks ago, and he carried on the momentum again on Saturday by winning the Brad’s Golf Cars Modified Series 100-lap race.
Myers picked up his 86th win and finished just ahead of runner-up Tim Brown, who has 94 wins. Both Myers and Brown have combined for 21 championships — Brown has 11 after winning last year and Myers has 10.
Brandon Ward was third and Jonathan Brown was fourth.
Next week is the Night of Destruction with the Monster Truck Car Crushing exhibition and the Midway Mobile Storage Demolition Derby. PLUS RACING FOR THE MODIFIED, SPORTSMAN, STREET STOCK, AND STADIUM STOCK DIVISIONS. First Race at 8pm Saturday.
