In what could go down as a Race of the Year candidate at Cleveland Speedway Saturday night, Todd Morrow over-powered pole sitter Skip Arp from the "Cat-Birds Seat" to score the 25-lap Late Model feature.
Arp and third place Lamar Scoggins (making his 2015 debut) stayed tight on Morrow's # T1 "A+ Collision Center, COR Suspension, Allen's Pools LLC, A-1 Towing, A&K Transport, Andy Dill Trucking, KC Graphics, Stealth Racing Carburators, Coulters Race Cars & Parts" sponsored Chevrolet Late Model but could do nothing but count the laps down in a non-stop green to checkered run. Even when the former two-time Cleveland Speedway Track Champion finally encountered back-marker traffic on lap 16, Morrow eased passed with worry.
Despite only 10 cars signing in for the feature, the race was very close knit with the kind of "in your face" action Cleveland Speedway fans have come to expect weekly on Saturday nights.
In the Crate Late Model class Ethan Hunter of Tiger, GA won his second feature and takes the division points lead besting 14-other entries. The # 3H "Spangler Sheet Metal, Ron's Car Wash, Steven Hogan Fabrication, Pritchard Homes, T1MCo Graphics, Stealth Racing Carburators" sponsored Mastersbilt 604 GM racer beat Crossville, TN's Chris Wilson and Ooltewah's Andy Pickelsimer. Robbie Greene of Georgetown, TN scored his second win of the season over points contender Brandon Stanfield. Hometown racer Richard Dixon dominated again the B-Hobby division while Jason Lewis raced the K-9 Road Warrior the opposite direction for "Wrong-Way" Victory. Next weekend Cleveland Speedway hosts the A-Hobby Mid Season Championship paying $500 to-WIN with a $50 entry.
