Die hard Cleveland Speedway racefans witnessed a special serving
of Randy Burrows just deserts as the Chattanooga racer won his
career first Super Late Model feature race. Burrows shined with
a bit of lady-luck Saturday night after fast qualifier (14:313
seconds) Dewayne Smith and fellow front row starter Mike Tinker
were regulated back a row after a failed starting attempt in the
first heat race. This put fifth fastest qualifier Burrows on the
pole along side of Jody Teffteller. Burrows took
command
and quickly had to begin fending off Smith, until Mike Tinker
got by Smith for second after a bobble in turn four set the fast
qualifier back a spot. In the second heat Lamar Scoggins show
the way as the second fastest in qualifying, earning the outside
pole after winning over reigning track champion Andy Dill and
David Smith. As the green flew Scoggins kept his mount to the
high side trying to keep pace with Burrows on the quicker low
side. Scoggins stayed high and began defending his second place
to Tinker. Jake Lowry was the first out of the race as he slowed
his mount from it's seventh place run. De. Smith got by Tinker
for third as Scoggins lowered his pace to the bottom line attempting
to reel in the leader. Andy Dill got entwined with Tinker on the
front stretch racing for fourth sending Tinker spinning outta
control for the races second caution period. As the laps waned
down towards the checkers Burrows wouldn't be denied and finally
received retribution for all his and his raceteams hard work.
An emotional Burrows wheeled his white "Alive 95, Wholesale
Group Inc., Allstate Insurance, Ocoee Construction Service"
#95 racecar into victory lane for the first time ever. Jerry Coffman
raced past David Smith for fifth as the checkers flew. Scoggins
was second, De. Smith third and Tinker was fourth.
