What won the race: Tyler Erb of New Waverly, Texas, outran fellow front-row starter Chad Thrash on Saturday at Whynot Motorsports Park for his second Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series victory of the season. Erb won by 2.051 seconds over Thrash for a $2,500 payday.

Quotable: “The past year or so the state of Mississippi has been really good to me,” said Erb. “We came up a little bit short at Columbus (Speedway) on Friday night, but at Whynot we had a great car and we were able to get another ‘W.’ I want to thank my family, my crew, my sponsors, and all of my fans for continuing to support my racing program.”

Key notes: Erb has five career MSCCS victories, including 2018's season opener at Jackson Motor Speedway. ... Thirteen drivers complete 40 laps at Whynot. ... The race had two cautions for slowing cars: Dean Carpenter on Lap 31 and Clay Fisher on lap 32. ... Ohio invader Rusty Schlenk, who won Friday at Columbus (Miss.) Speedway for his first career MSCCS victory, finished fourth. ... Erb, Schlenk, David Breazeale and Tyler Millwood were prospective World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series regulars who entered the event in preparation for Whynot's WoO weekend on April 20-21.

On the move: Rick Rickman of Columbus, Miss., started ninth and finished fifth.
