Reynoldsville- Mother Nature was finally friendly again with bright blue skies over Hummingbird Speedway.
The Prontock Beer Distributor R WD 4 Cylinders started the show on the Mike Eberl Memorial. George Bailey drew the pole position with Bill McMillen Sr. on the outside of the front row. McMillen made a quick pass on the outside of turn 2 to take the lead down the backstretch. That lead would not last long, as McMillen spun in turn 4 on lap 3. George Bailey in the 20 car took over the lead and would hold on for the final 13 laps taking the checkered flag. Orin Taylor came from the 9th starting spot to take 2nd followed by Don Henry, Allen Barnett and Bill Washek.

Brookville Wood Products/BWP Bats Limited Late Models
A deep inversion in the BWP Bats Limited Late Models meant that the heat winners Bob McMillen, Eric Moore and Luke Hoffner would start no better than 10th in the feature and that caused problems right from the start. After the green flag, Dave Shagla had to make a quick move on the backstretch. Eric Moore had to avoid him and in doing so collected Bob McMillen. After the restart the #231 of George Fultz led lap 1 with Shagla taking the lead on lap 2. Shagla’s car was off and running. The only car to stay close was the #55H of Jake Shady. Shady applied serious pressure to Shagla for 12 laps. Shagla was just one turn from claiming the checkers when he spun out of turn 4 into the infield allowing Shady to cross the line in 1st. Shagla was able to salvage 2nd Place. Dwayne Brooks crossed the line in 3rd followed by George Fultz and Donny Connor.

Pure Stock Feature
Bruce Hartzfeld sat on the pole in the Pure Stock Feature with Brian Rhed on the outside of the front row. Unlike the previous two features the Pure Stock ran a really clean race with just one caution on lap 8 for the spin of Allen Trunzo. Hartzfeld led the first 2 laps before being passed by the #97 of Kyle Shannon. Brian Rhed would take over the lead on lap 10. Shannon wasn’t about to give up though with exciting door to door action including 3 wide out of turn 4 with 2 laps to go. Rhed was able to slam the door and keep Shannon in 2nd place. Hartzfeld hung on for 3rd followed by last weeks feature winner Asel and John Barley.

Mike Calhoun and Josh Fields were on the front row for the Miller Brothers Furniture FWD 4 Cuylinder Feature. Fields driving hard through 1 and 2 made the pass stick and took the lead down the backstretch on lap 1. Fields would lead up til lap 8 even though his car was smoking. A caution on lap 8 was brought out by Jody Frantz as he hit the wall in turn 2. During the cleanup Josh Fields #78 fell victim to a mechanical problem and his evening was over. That handed the lead to Dustin Fields who had come all the way from the 11th starting spot. Dustin Fields would lead the last 4 laps followed by the #81 of Mike Lucas.
