July 29: RANDY WALLER MEMORIAL 150 presented by Charles Anderson Lawncare
Drew
Herring wins fifth straight Late Model Stock Car event at SoBo to move
atop NASCAR point standings SOUTH
BOSTON, VA. — Drew Herring strikes again. The
Benson, N.C. Late Model Stock Car Division driver grabbed the lead on the
second circuit of the 150-lap Barkhouser Late Model Stock Car Division and
held on the rest of the way to score his fifth straight victory. The
win, Herring's seventh victory in the past eight Late Model Stock Car
races, came in the featured attraction of the Randy Waller Memorial 150
presented by Charles Anderson Lawn Car Service. In
addition to claiming his fifth consecutive triumph, Herring also moved
atop the point standings in the chase for the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series
crown at America's Hometown Track. Herring
entered the night with a $1,000 bounty hanging over him. If anyone else in
the 21-car starting field had claimed a victory, an additional $1,000
would have been awarded on top of the $3,000 first prize. The bounty on
Herring will grow to $1,500 for the Aug. 5 Late Model Stock Car Division
event at South Boston. Adam
Barker of Hurt, Va. surged from a seventh starting position in the field
to claim a runner-up finish. The second-place showing came on the heels of
a third-place finish by Barker in his last race on the four-tenths mile
asphalt oval. Eddie
Johnson of Ashland, Va., who began the race from the 15th
starting slot, battled his way through the field during the race and
managed a third-place run for the night. Nick Smith of Hampton, Va. was
fourth at the checkered flag and was followed in the top five by Owen
Miller of Emporia, Va. Jonathan
Cash of Oxford, N.C., who entered the night as the division's point
leader, turned in a dismal qualifying effort and started the night in the
19th position. Cash fought his way through the pack to secure a
sixth-place performance, however, his 10 point lead over Herring was wiped
out in the process. Herring
and Cash, who is still seeking his first victory of the campaign, are now
tied atop the point standings. Herring's seven triumphs this season give
him the top spot in the standings by virtue of a tiebreaker. Jason
Dickerson of Ruckersville, Va., who started from the pole position in the
race with a qualifying run of 15.864 seconds, stayed in the second
position on the track until Barker grabbed the spot on the 64th
circuit. Dickerson wound up slipping back to a seventh place finish. Rodney
Cook of Reidsville, N.C. was eighth for the night and was followed in the
top 10 by Wayne Ramsey of Amherst, Va. in ninth place and Jonathan Bailey
of Keysville, Va. in the 10th position. The
race was slowed by four cautions, the last of which flew on lap 112 when
debris was spotted in the backstretch. Justin
Snow ends Bruce Anderson's dominance, scores 1st Limited
Sportsman Division victory of season Justin
Snow of Danville, Va. picked up some extra cash Saturday night when he
snapped a win streak by Bruce Anderson of South Boston, Va. by collecting
a victory in the 50-lap race for the Strutmasters.com Limited Sportsman
Division. Snow
started from the pole position in the 10-car field and, after fighting
side-by-side with Anderson for seven laps, moved in front for good on the
eighth circuit to pick up his first win of the season at the four-tenths
mile asphalt oval. The
win was worth an extra $500 in cash for Snow. The $500 was bounty money
that was added to the regular purse for any driver who could defeat
Anderson, the winner of nine of the division's first 12 races this season. Anderson,
who spun out on lap nine, while battling Matt Lofton of Timberlake, N.C.
for second place, went to the rear of the field and stormed back to the
front to gain a runner-up finish and maintain his lead in the division's
point race. Tommy
Peregoy of Red Oak, Va. finished third in the 10-car field and was
followed in the top five by Wesley Falk of Virginia Beach, Va. in fourth
place and Timmy Langford of Amelia, Va. in the fifth position. Falk began
the race for the ninth starting spot, while Langford began the event from
the eighth position. Quain
Moore holds off point leader Chuck Watkins in two-lap dash to score first
Pure Stock Division triumph Quain
Moore of Callands, Va. led every lap of the Pure Stock Division event to
score his first triumph of the season Saturday night. The
win did not come easy for Moore, however. Before taking the checkered flag
and the win, he had to hold off several stiff challenges from three-time
victor Chuck Watkins of Stem, N.C., who placed second in the 15-car field
and maintained his lead in the division point standings. Watkins started
the race in the 10th spot. The
race was slowed by five cautions periods, including two late yellow flags,
which extended the event to 31 laps to ensure a green-white-checker finish
at the end. Moore
qualified eighth for the race, but gained the pole position after a
pre-race inversion was held. Justin Tucker of Elon, N.C. turned in the
fast qualifying time during time trials and battled back from the eighth
position to secure a third place run. Lee
Anderson of Gladys, Va. was fourth for the night, while William Ridgeway
of Burlington, N.C. rounded out the top five. Goess
posts victory in INEX Legends Series event Craig
Goess, Jr. of Greenville, N.C. turned in the fast qualifying time prior to
the 25-lap race for the touring INEX Legends Series race and proceeded to
lead every lap of the event to score a victory. Cameron
Patrick of Yorktown, Va. placed second in the 12-car field, while Darrell
Wallace, Jr. of Concord, N.C., who started the race from the outside pole
spot, finished in third place. Jeremy Cook of Hampton, Va. wound up fourth
at the close of the race.
