Andrew Thomas of Monroe jumped from the pole position to the lead at the
start of the late model stock feature. On lap six, Ross Furr of Concord moved
past and into the top spot that he would hold for the next 41 laps.

but could not move to back to the top spot.
White won over Furr. Bo Foust of Charlotte finished third with Thomas
fourth. Point leader Travis Sharpe of Swansea, S.C. completed the top five.

Charlotte survived a strong battle to score a third place finish over Randy
McAnulty of Concord. Terry Hoggard of Concord finished fifth.

that stop him as he took the lead late in the feature and rolled to his fourth
win of the season. Drew Calhoun of Southern Pines was second with Jim Fluharty
of Concord third. Adam Welch of Concord was fourth with David Sugg of
Cornelius fifth.
Brooks started in the second position and continued his impressive mini
