Another entertaining evening of racing at Gas City tonight. A very heavy and fast track this evening after some late morning showers. Coleman started 7th and tried the bottom for about 5 laps without much success. Took it to the top and held his position for about another 5 laps or so.

He then mounted a charge and picked them off one by one. He took the lead from 5th starting Scotty Weir with about 10 remaining and distanced himself from the field. A couple of narrow experiences almost caught up with him as he battled with the rear of the field.

A late caution with a couple of laps left bunched the field and the Iceman was able to hold off the charge of Weir and Hopkins for the victory. A nice run for Billy Puterbaugh Jr with a 4th place finish after starting 9th in the Edison 10e. Travis Welpott brought the #18 home in 5th place.

A decent crowd on hand considering that Mississinewa and Blackford, two local high schools were engaged in a CIC conference football game this evening.

I had originally picked Scotty Weir for the win as they were lining up. Coleman was hammer down all race,and great to watch. Weir made it interesting on the last restart. Gotta give a shout out to AJ Hopkins for a good run in third.
