What won the race: Shane Clanton of Zebulon, Ga., took the lead on an early restart, dominating the remainder of the 30-lap event for a $3,000 victory at Little Valley Speedway.
Quotable: "Barton slipped getting in on that restart there, left the bottom open, and I just took advantage of it," Clanton said. "This car is phenomenal. I'm just lucky to be driving it. We've struggled a lot this year and we're turning our program around. Ron Davies, my car owner and father-in-law gives us everything we need to win races. We've just had the set-up off a little bit all year. This is a new car. We changed a lot of stuff and it's working.”
