September 14, 2020 — Mike Kenison drove his heart out Saturday night to hold off a hard-charging Shawn Swallow to win the Creative Counter Late Model main event on double points night at the Groveton speed plant.

Whitefield’s Sammy Gooden brought the Gooden’s Powder Coating Chevrolet home in the third spot.
Lil Rascals Dwarf cars ran green to checkers and Richie Turner got to the flag first followed by Brenna Humphrey in her #21 and Brad Sanborn finally got his miserable season turned around with a hard-fought third place. In the Claudette and Dean’s Place Dare Devils point leader, Cassie Leonard got the lead and didn’t look back as she got another win on double points night. Mekaylah Bowen ended the night in second and Revin Evan Gilbert recovered from an early spin to finish third.

Jamie Swallow SR. brought his Dodge in to end the night in third.
White Mountains Community College Bone Stock 4 cylinders saw just two cautions and when everything got sorted out point leader Ryan Heuser picked up his fifth win of the 2020 season, Doug Collins had a great second-place finish for the night and Travis Collins finished third in his #30 machine.
