Jerald Harris Finishes Fast Friday First

The hot humid night kicked off with a rain delay, but the track crew got it raceable so heat races for the Final Fast Friday got on track as quickly as possible with Aaron Leach and Billy Hubbard taking wins.

The feature was paced to green with Jerald Harris and Aaron Leach up front, Harris shot to the lead with Leach second and Billy Hubbard third.

Harris continued to lead with Hubbard making it to second and Leach in third. Harris and Hubbard continued up front as Caleb Harris now was pressuring Leach for third.

Harris continued to lead as the laps were clicking down but Hubbard would pull off as his car started to run hot leaving Leach and Caleb Harris to try to track down Jerald.

After a quick yellow for a stalled car Harris was back at it and sailed to victory at the coastal speedway. Aaron Leach was able to hold off Caleb for second at the line.

At the line it was Jerald Harris, Aaron Leach, Caleb Harris, Bill Mullis, Matt Mullins, Daren Bolac, Billy Hubbard, Chris Ware, Jacob Wood, Matthew Leach and Chris Humblet.

Next week it’s off to Winchester Speedway in Winchester, Va. for an IMCA RaceSaver co-sanctioned event with the Laurel Highlands and Virginia Sprint Series on Saturday night July 25th.

We also want to thank Great Bridge Muffler & Brake, Humblet Racing as well as Bay Concrete for their sponsorship of the Fast Friday races at Dixieland Speedway this year it was much appreciated by the racers .
