The pair worked lap traffic for much of the night and Jordan got the better of  Hewins from laps 11 to 26 but Hewins was able to drive under Morse to reclaim  the lead. The pair put on a show as they worked lap traffic, splitting slower  cars and battling for the $500.00 payday e but into the end it was Hewins by 6  car lengths.<br \/>\n<br \/><!--more--><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">The  305\/Mad Bomber feature was up next and Adam Lovejoy jumped out front early.  Trouble was, Lovejoy made that jump a little too soon and he was docked four  spots at the next yellow. That put Paul Ureneck out front on the restart but  Lovejoy wasted no time getting to second, putting his ride on Ureneck\u2019s bumper  by lap 15. AT the half-way mark it was still Ureneck with Lovejoy hot on his  heels, then a straightaway back to Kirk Bean, John Lord and Jason Inman. Lovejoy  saw an opening on the bottom and took over the top spot at the line on lap 31 to  claim the feature over Ureneck, Kirk Bean, Jon Lord and Jason  Curtis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">The  Mighty Truckers were up next with Chad Binette and Troy Field occupying the  front row Binette led lap one but Field hung tough on the outside and led lap  two. Binette kept the pressure on but Field kept control, slowly building upon  his lead. At the half way it was Fields, Binette, Brian Beaulieu, Duane Booth  and Roger Allard the top five. Jeremy Binette moved up to run fourth with ten to  go and Ryan Farrar broke into the top five. Farrar took fourth away from Jeremy  Binette with five remaining. Binette caught Field in lapped traffic but Field  made it three wide to keep the lead and take home the win by a truck  length.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">The  350\/Outlaws rolled out for the night\u2019s final fifty lapper with Bill Childs Jr.  and Mike Short leading the 33 car field to the green. Childs and Short raced the  early laps like they were the final five, side by side and rubbing fenders.  Short got the jump on an early restart but Childs kept his ride right on Short\u2019s  bumper with Chris Burgess and Corey Morgan giving chase. The caution flew on lap  seven and race control sent Short to the back of the pack for jumping the  previous restart.<span> <\/span>Short chose to  take his mount to the pits and call it a night. That gave Childs back the point  with Chris Burgess to his outside.<span> <\/span>Another early caution flew but not before Corey Morgan was able to take  over second from Burgess. That set up a Childs\/Morgan restart. Once again it was  Childs in the lead with Morgan right on his bumper then Ryan Robbins, Burgess,  and Dan Lovejoy third through fifth. Childs held the point at half way and  Burgess reclaimed third from Robbins. The Outlaws were having a serious bout  with yellow fever but Childs was keeping the field behind him with little  difficulty. A lap 34 restart decided the race when Childs failed to come up to  speed on the restart, sliding all the way back to fourth. It was Morgan to the  lead with Burgess second but Childs was on the move, taking over second from  Burgess with ten to go. Morgan had a ten car length advantage but Childs slowly  narrowed the gap. Robbins spun out of fourth with eight to go, setting up a  battle between Childs and Morgan for the win. The pair got an even restart with  Morgan prevailing. Childs stayed right on his bumper, applying the chrome horn  but Morgan withstood the challenge and slid across the finish line with an  assist from Childs for the victory. Childs, Burgess, Dan Lovejoy and Brian  Picard finished second through fifth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\"><span> <\/span>Saturday September 11 is race time with  qualifying for the PASS Super Late Models, Mods and Sportsman plus feature  racing for the Road Runners, Wildcat\/Strictly and Legends divisions.
