It was a real buzzkill when Braylon broke, because a real battle between he and Kyle was beginning to unfold. Once that #3 car was out of the picture, it was a done deal, because nobody else had anything for Cummins. He was up there on the top shelf and was just flying! The battle behind the leader involving Shuman, Gaines, Christian and others was a good one and lasted for most of the last half of the race.

I also stayed for the modified race, as the field was stacked with a lot of regional stars. And for the most part is was really worth it. Denny Schwartz and the 7 car, who I think is Richie Lex, battled furiously for most of the feature, until Lex jumped the cushion and dropped back several spots. Brian Hayden had a good first handful of laps, coming from the 7th row up to 6th, before having to go to the back, after having to go to the work area following the red flag. Kenny Carmichael also made a real good accounting of himself, by battling his way up through the loaded field, as well.

It was another great night at the track. The program was ran well. They had over 120 cars total, between the 4 classes and I left after the second feature and was still on the road before 10:00. And also, I finally got to meet Joe Wisler for the first time. Thanks to K.O. for that.
