IT'S TIME! Tomorrow night (June 11th)

The Outlaws Invade The Melon!

[Outlaw Latemodel]

Saturday, June 11th was the first of 5 "Georgia for Fair Tax / David Ragan Ford" Outlaw Latemodel Races at Watermelon Capital Speedway and it was a great start to the season with more to come!

David Hodges from Valdosta, Ga, in the black #16, was the fastest qualifier with a 16.41 and that gave him the pole for the night. Warren Mobley from Griffin, GA was second with a 16.60, and Steve Renner from Perry, GA was third with a 16.68.

On the start of the feature Hodges grabbed the lead, with Renner second and Mobley third. Around lap 9 Mobley, in the #95, pulled off with engine trouble releasing the third place position to Billy Chancy from Kathleen, Ga driving the #81. Around lap 25 Sammy Short in the #5 from Hampton, Ga couldn't hold the bottom which opened the door for Steve Barker in the white #64, also from Hampton, to drive under him for the 4th position. Not long after the pass Barker would retire to the pits with engine trouble moving Short back to 4th. For the first 30 laps, the top 7 were nose to tail. It was a very competitive race, if anyone made a mistake they would pay for it with a loss of position. On lap 40 Billy Chancy spun in the middle of turns 3 and 4 moving him to the rear for the restart. This moved Sammy Short to the 3rd position. Here's the real "kicker", Watermelon Captial Speedway always has a double file restart and this race would be no different! This gave Chancy a real shot for the win, even though he had to restart at the rear. The restart showed Hodges on the inside with Renner outside, when the green dropped Renner out gunned Hodges to turn one but could not clear him. Hodges held his nose just off the inside quarter panel of Renner! They raced door to door down the back stretch. Hodges finally pulled ahead again with Renner settling into second once again, Short third, and Chancy charging from the rear for fourth! Once again, Short had trouble holding the bottom groove which opened the door for Chancy! Chancy made the pass with a few laps to go. David Hodges was your winner with Renner second, and Billy Chancy third.
