Cleveland, TN - Former "ICE BOWL" Champion Bobby "Pops" Mayse of Harrison, Tn., took Cleveland Speedway's Checkered Flag Saturday night in the Crate Late Model 25 lap feature.
On a night the Road Warriors would steal the show with the final race of the evening and over 300 kids would come grab "Coin N' Candy" presented by A-1 Towing & Service Center, it was anything goes.
Bobby Richey Jr. won over fellow Chattanoogan Tod Hernandez in the Super Late Model feature, while Justin Winters picked up another win in his Topless Sportsman racer.
The Road Warriors put on the best race of the night as Jeff Bates held off heat winner Jason Lewis. In the nose to tail feature, Lewis would spin and finish third as 2015 division Champion James Huffman finished second to Bates.
Steven Campbell of Birchwood won Pony/FWD, while Cleveland's Jason Brown won B-Hobby.
Cleveland Speedway race fan Heidi Cobb was one of several who went on a "Ride of a Lifetime" with 2015 Track Champion Lamar Scoggins in the "Tindell & Sons Carpet" two-seater Late Model.
Racing resumes next weekend with all classes at 7 p.m.
