Jerry Whiteaker Memorial Completion

[top_shelf_12]

The show was postponed last night due to that dreadful "r" word and despite the track's diligent efforts, there was just too much moisture to complete the show. But determined to finish it up we'll have some Sunday matinee racing today beginning at 2pm. Still on the dance card is the second half of the Factory Stock LCQ, the Sport Mod LCQ, the $3000 to win Factory Stock 30 lap A Main and the big $5000 to win Sport Mod A Main. Admission just $5 or last night's ticket stubs will be honored. Couldn't ask for a better day, clear, light breeze and temps in the 60s so should be a great way to end the weekend. 

I do not have any contact with track officials and all commentary is based on my observations from the stands and all Results are Unofficial. 

[top_shelf_12]

So the lineup for the Factory Stock LCQ is Blankenship, Helms, Sullivan, B. Rye, Elasko, Fox, Beard, Gilpin, C. Flanagan, Downey, Keylich, Stephens, Aguirre, Villareal with 6 to go, top 4 transfer.

Whittington takes the point early with Leonard nearby, Hebert, Gregory,  and Davis breaking away. Whiteaker in 6th leading the second group. 

[top_shelf_12]

Hebert and Gregory still side by side for 3rd, 4 laps in.

Whiteaker reels in Davis as the top 6 are about half a straight ahead of Torres in 7th getting challenged by Neil. First yellow out as Cody Smith stalls at the top of 4. Whittington, Leonard, Hebert, Gregory, and Davis about 10 laps in.

[top_shelf_12]

Hebert uses the restart to pass Leonard but it will be nulled as Butcher and Maupin collide at the exit of 2.

[top_shelf_12]

Just made the announcement we're 12 laps in. Looks like Butcher's day is over as he is towed off on the hook, Maupin rejoins the tail with some door damage.

[top_shelf_12]

Hebert looking low but can't complete the pass. Caution out as Torres spins in 4, Day, Beddoe, Neil and Castaneda also involved. Whittington, Hebert, Leonard, Davis and Gregory top 5 with 38 to go.
