Once out front Polevoy fended off several attempts by Brian Maxey for the lead and went on to score his second win of the season. Rounding out the top five were Maxey, Qaude, Tim Schulte and Sparks. The Collision One Limited Stock feature is always one of the best races of the night and tonight was no different as Chad Champion of Beaverdam, VA grabbed the lead on the start of the 20 lap affair. Champion would have plenty of company as the top six drivers raced nose to tail. On a lap 4 restart Champion slowed just enough to allow Hutchens to jump to his outside for the lead. Hutchens dodged a close call on lap 16 when a lapped car spun in front of him as he exited turn 2 and went on to score the victory. Rounding out the top five were Marty Coltrain, Cory Bradley, Chad Champion and Brian Bradley. The speedway will return to racing on Saturday July 16th for MetroCast Night and week eight of the Aaron’s Dirt Series Championship season featuring the Victory Lap Late Models, Budweiser Modifieds, Truckin Thunder Sportsman and Collision One Limited Stock Cars in action.
