The "LawMan" Mike Tinker arrested the competition for the second time this seasonSaturday night at Boyd's Speedway, parking his Late Model in National Title Pawn once again. The #T22 ""Madaris Siding & Windows, Tinker's Garage, C&T Automotive, Fort Lake Taning" sponsored Warrior racecar again held off Cleveland's Riley Hickman in the feature race and in the process closed the gap on Track Championship points leader Tod Hernandez. 

Pole sitter Robby Mason of Hixson, TN was third at the checkers, with Andy Miller of Dunlap and Blake Shapiro of Fort Worth, Texas rounding out the top-5.

The special Media Challenge Gran Prix Race #2 was won by Tim Morgan of TimCo Graphics. WDEF's News 12 reporter Shawn Lanier came in second while James Mahon of "Thru Irish Eyes" from WDEF crashed into the front straight-away wall during the feature ending his race early.

The Crate Late Model feature winner was protested and is currently pending results. In the A-Hobby feature it was B.J. Wilson of Ringgold, taking the victory over Joshua Beagan and Brandon Stanfield. The B-Hobby saw Dallas Brooks of Chattanooga continue his dominance over Jason Tate and Jim Gilbert.

In the Pony/FWD feature Bruce Kimber of Dalton was victorious over Koty Campbell and E.J. Bailey.

Next Saturday night, it's "Ladies Night" at Boyd's with Powder Puff races for the female persuasion. For full results and more information visit the tracks official web-site www.BoydsSpeedway.net.
