Bailey's 200: July 3, 2006
Drew
Herring continues recent dominance at South Boston Speedway with Monday
victory in Bailey's 200 SOUTH
BOSTON, VA. — Drew Herring of Benson, N.C. has been as hot as the
weather at South Boston Speedway in recent weeks. Monday
night, Herring started on the outside of the front row, swiped the lead
from pole position winner Frank Deiny, Jr. of Mechanicsville, Va. on the
opening circuit and led the rest of the way to score a victory in the
200-lap race for the Barkhouser Late Model Stock Car Division. The event
was the featured attraction of the Bailey's 200 NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series
program. A
crowd of over 10,000 was on hand to see Herring win his third straight
race before the skies lit up with South Boston Speedway's annual fireworks
extravaganza. The victory was also Herring's fifth in the last six Late
Model Stock Car races at the four-tenths mile asphalt oval. Among
those in attendance Monday night at America's Hometown Track was NASCAR
Nextel Cup star Denny Hamlin, who is a former Late Model Stock Car
competitor at South Boston. Herring
and Deiny, who motored to a runner-up finish, were so dominant in the race
that only three cars remained on the lead lap when the checkered flag
fell. The
200-lapper was slowed by just three cautions, the last of which occurred
prior to the midpoint of the race. When the green flag waved on lap 74 for
a restart, it remained in place over the remainder of the event. Cliff
Daniels of Smithfield, Va., who started eighth in the field after
competing in the 100-lap Limited Sportsman Division race, motored to a
third-place finish as the final driver on the lead lap. Tony
McGuire of Roanoke, Va. placed fourth at the close of the race, while Nick
Smith of Hampton, Va. rounded out the top five drivers in the 28-car
field. McGuire and Smith were each one lap down at the end. Jonathan
Cash of Oxford, N.C. posted a sixth-place run in the race, while Rodney
Cook of Reidsville, N.C, who started from the 20th slot,
secured a seventh-place finish. Owen
Miller of Emporia, Va. was eighth at the close of the race, while Jamey
Caudill of Four Oaks, N.C. was ninth and Wayne Ramsey of Amherst, Va.
rounded out the top 10 competitors. Cash, Cook, Miller, Caudill and Ramsey
were all one lap down at the close of the race. Bruce
Anderson takes advantage of late-race caution to score seventh Limited
Sportsman Division win of year Bruce
Anderson of South Boston, Va. didn't lead but one lap of the 100-lap
Strutmasters.com Limited Sportsman Division race Monday night. That one
lap, however, was the most important one. Anderson
edged pole position winner Justin Snow of Danville, Va. across the
start-finish line on the 100th circuit of the race. Snow had
led the opening 99 laps of the race, but was unable to hold off Anderson
in a two-lap shootout to the checkered flag, which followed the race's
second and final caution period. The yellow flag flew on lap 94 when
debris was reported on the backstretch. Danny
Willis of Cluster Springs, Va. placed third in the 14-car field after
qualifying in the fifth slot. Cliff Daniels of Smithfield, Va. roared from
the 11th starting position to finish in fourth place, while
Brian Pembleton of Amelia, Va. rounded out the top five drivers in the
race. The
race was slowed by only two cautions, both of which took place for reports
of debris. With
the victory, Anderson maintained his lead in the division's championship
chase. Tommy Peregoy of Red Oak, Va. is second in the standings and is
followed by Willis. Jeff
Wilson scores second Pure Stock Division victory in 75-lap shootout Jeff
Wilson of Durham, N.C. isn't running a full schedule at South Boston
Speedway this season, but he is making the most of his appearances at the
four-tenths mile asphalt oval. Wilson
roared to his second victory of the season in the Budweiser Pure Stock
Division. The win came in a 75-lap race, which is the longest race of the
campaign for the division. Wilson
set the fast qualifying time for the event, but had to start from the
eighth position following a pre-race inversion. Wilson grabbed the lead in
the race by the 21st circuit when he worked his way around Joey
Conner of Halifax, Va. Chuck
Watkins of Stem, N.C., the points leader for the division, started sixth
in the race, avoided an early accident that took place just in front of
him, and surged to a runner-up finish. Quain
Moore of Callands, Va., the second-place driver in the title chase,
grabbed a third-place run in the 17-car field and was followed in the top
five by Lee Anderson of Gladys, Va. in the fourth-place position and Keith
Langston of Pittsboro, N.C. in the fifth-place slot.
