Winners Saturday included; Lonnie Dawson of Bessimer AL, Trevor Bayne of Knoxville TN (2 Wins), Chris Douglas of Florence AL, Aaron Ridley of Chatsworth GA, Bradley Gerrells of Dahlonga GA (2 Wins), Jake Tyler of Savannah TN, and Shane Duncan of Dalton GA. The big money winner of the WinterNationals was Bradley Gerrells who pocketed over $1400. 00 by winning one of the two "Dirt Track Madness" (Stock Heavy) big money features and the Limited Heavy feature. Chris Douglas won the other big money "Dirt Track Madness" (Stock Medium) feature pocketing in excess of $1,000. 00 for his efforts.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">In the first of nine feature events Shane Duncan (# 77) of Dalton GA won the Amateur division 20 lap feature. Fast qualifier Ken Stephenson of Leoma TN dropped quickly from top contention leaving third starting Troy Webb only to challenge Duncan. Webb held on to finish second with Chance Watson coming from sixth to finish third. Rounding out the top five were; Austin Patrick and pole-sitter Stephenson.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">The thunderous Limited Heavy were up next and Bradley Gerrells of Dahlonga GA proved he was the man to beat, winning from the pole and holding second fastest qualifier Adam Ingram to a firm second place. Phillip Bell, Barrett Terry and Chris Whitehead rounded out the top five.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">In the Jr. Restricted feature Jake Tyler of Savannah TN knocked off pole-sitter Brent Sperin who lead early in the 20 lap event. Aaron Ridley, Trevor Holbert, Drew Prater and Timmy Hartley rounded out the top five.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">The Stock Heavy was the first of the two big "Dirt Track Madness" events. Brent Shelton of Decatur AL set fast time over fifty-four other karts in qualifying with a lap of 17:299 seconds. As the race took the green flag of thirty starters it was second and fourth fastest qualifiers Bradley Gerrells and Chris Douglas breaking away to battle for the lead. Gerrells passed under the checkered flag less than half a kart length over Douglas. Shane Evans finished third, Scott Tipton finished fourth and Thomas Mathis finished fifth.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">In the Jr. Sportsman 2 division Trevor Bayne of Knoxville TN took the win (his first of two Saturday) from his pole position start.
