Rocky Jones took the early lead in Saturday night’s Stock V8 feature at Georgia’s Hartwell Speedway, and then edged out Stephen House by just a few feet to take home the win.

The Bowman, Georgia speedster started his night with a heat race win at the 3/8-mile clay raceway.

Jones started on the outside of the front row alongside pole sitter House. On the initial start, House spun in the middle of turn two, leaving Dustin Moore with no place to go. Moore made contact with House’s car, eliminating Moore from the event.

On the second start attempt, Jones jumped out to the lead again. Behind him, Bradlee Jones and Chance Segars made contact off turn two, sending Bradlee Jones into the inside wall, ending his night.

On the third start attempt, Jones again retook the lead, and drove away while the pack battled for position behind him. House would drive his way to second place, and began working to close on the leader.

Over the closing laps, House would close on Jones, aided by a flurry of cautions. On the final lap, House got a strong run in turn three, cutting to the inside as the two raced off turn four.

At the line, Jones beat out House by a slim margin to record the victory.

Seth Brown finished in third, with Tyler Kennedy in fourth and Evan Brown in fifth.
