Josh Wimbish started on the pole of Saturday night’s feature at Hickory Motor Speedway in Hickory, NC.

But in the end, it was NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Bojangles Late Models with point’s leader Austin McDaniel taking the victory from the outside of the front row.

It was a race early but in the late stages, McDaniel pulled away followed by Wimbish, past track champion Andy Mercer, Pietro Fittipaldi, and Jesse LeFevers rounding out the top five.

In other action, Bill Powell from the pole in the Sportsman Racing Classics 25-lap feature. Powell held the early lead until he was passed by Bill Webb. Caution flew on lap 20 for an incident in turn one when Jerry White hit the wall hard and was through for the night. At the finish it was Bill Webb scoring the win, followed by Powell, Ken Webb, Dennis Hinkle, and Robert Webb.

Todd Harrington would lead them to the green for the 4-Cylinders race and would assume the early lead. Harrington would pull away for the victory followed by Nathaniel Kanupp, Donnie Harmon, Robbie Lewis and Donn Wardo.

Landon Huffman sat on the pole for Paramount Kia Limited Late Model 35 lap feature and was strong early, followed by Zach Bruenger, Casey Pierce, points leader Shane Lee fourth, and Jeremy Pelfrey fifth . There were battles throughout the field until the first  caution came out on lap 24 when Brandon Atkinson spun down the front stretch after contact with another car. The field would line up two-by-two for the traditional Hickory Motor Speedway double file restart and it would be an 11-lap sprint to the end.

A three wide battle between Bruenger, Pierce and Lee ensued with Bruenger taking the second spot. A four-car battle for fifth between Lee, Pelfrey, Travis Byrd and Brandon Setzer ended with Lee getting the advantage on lap 32. But Pierce would spin on the front stretch with only three laps to go after contact with Bruenger, setting up an exciting finish. Huffman would bring them to the green with Annabeth Barnes working to second. At the checkered flag, it was Huffman scoring the win, followed by Pelfrey, Byrd, Setzer and Shane Lee in fifth.

Kevin Eby would take the pole and lead the field to the green flag in the WrenchRags Street Stock race. Eby would take the early lead followed closely by Marshall Sutton, Mike Newton, and Mark Whitten. Sutton would make a bid for the lead and take it on lap eight with all four battling together. Sutton would lead by more than a car length on the charging Eby.  Eby would move to the inside of Sutton with 14 to go as Whitten moved to the inside of Newton. The battle continued until a caution on lap 16 when Jason Stanley spun in turn two. On the restart it would be Sutton assuming the lead with Eby in tow. Newton and Whitten were door to door as Roy Smith moved into the top four. At the line it would be Sutton grabbing the win, followed closely by Eby, Newton, Whitten and Smith rounding out the top five.

Hickory Motor Speedway will be back in action on Saturday, September 1 for the running of the 36th Annual Bobby Isaac Memorial.  For more info, visit  www.hickorymotorspeedway.com.
