To be honest Logan Jarrett had this race won but hey it was a full moon and strange things happen..... The track was crazy fast and heavy and hard to pass on. It was still throwing mud balls to the top of the stands till the end(one of them got me in the eye about 1/2 way thru the feature) Jarrett led from the start with Robert in tow and Ballou wasnt catching him. With 3 to go a car(I believe it was Wilpot but dont hold me to that) slowly drove outside the hump in turn 3 and looked like he was going to stop outside turn 4, at the last second he made a hard right and pulled into the pits thru the turn 4 entrance. Too late the yellow came out and we were set for a 3 lap shootout. Jarrett left the inside open after the restart and Robert took advantage and beat him to the bottom of turn one and led the rest of the way. A few, including resident scribe Kevin Eckert were a little upset that they threw the yellow(I'm sure he will have a few words to say about it in his next column) but it wasnt an easy call for the flagman. It was however a popular victory after Robert lost a car last week at the Smackdown. Major kudos to "Sunshine" Tyler Courtney for holding off Hunter% for third, that kid is getting really good for a rookie.

Hunter was the big mover from the back to 4th,Hopkins has been entertaining all season long in my opinion with 5th. Puterbaugh another mover from the back in 6th,and Josh Spencer after a stoppage from the back to 8th
Jerry Coons Jr. has had terrible luck lately with a flip,and also hated to see Jamie Fredrickson flip too.
Well said RAcefan20, I felt the same. I like Ballou, but it was had to see the young Jarrett drive such a good race to lose it like he did. Hunter 17th to 4th was fun to watch also. Jarrett is much improved and his wins will be coming soon I predict. Good night, glad I made the drive. Also enjoyed talking to Mowerman, trying to meet more of the IOW gang.
Spencer came from the back twice in the race and still finished 8th. Got caught up in a wreck with grant and someone else and went to the back. Worked up to 9th and was sent to the back with again after pulling off to have a trac bar( i believe) taped up after it had fell off. Then from the back, worked up to 8th for the finish.
