The cars’ numbers were 25A, 38, 26, 23M, and 24X. 24X was fl ying back and forth around the track. He was using the speed he would build up to his advantage, viciously tearing into other cars as he hit them. This tactic proved to be benefi cial, as 24X, driven by Troy Rowlins, was victorious. His car was in such good condition that, once he had received his trophy, he stuck it out his window and drove off the track. This then brought the night to its fi nal class, the compacts.

The fi nal heat would be the remaining twenty cars, battling until only one was left running. Continued --
