PITTSBURGH, PA - AUGUST 11, 2012 - In the Hoosier Tire Mid-Atlantic DIRTcar Super Late Models, Saxonburg PA's Alex Ferree picked up his second win of season. Ferree grabbed the lead from pole sitter Kyle Lukon on lap one and held off a late race charge by Michael Norris to pick up the win. Daryl Charlier was a solid third followed by John Mollick, John Garvin, Brandon Burgoon, Lukon, Mike Johnson, Steve Baker, and Ben Miley in the fast paced feature. The brothers Johnson, Mike and Davey won the heats, but Davey blew a motor as he took the checker and was a DNS for the feature. Newcomer Bobby Keys made his first start, but did not run the feature. Lynn Geisler blew an engine and erupted in flames during the feature. Brandon Burgoon was the Awesome Hard Charger while Kyle Lukon picked up the K&N Performer award.

Joe Martin, Ringgold PA, won his first ever PPMS feature in the Brougher's Machine Shop Fastrak Crate Late Models. Martin outgunned Kyle Lukon on the start, and kept Will Thomas at bay for 20 laps to pick up an impressive win. Kyle Lukon was third, followed by Steve Beatty, Josh Double, Tommy Schirnhofer Jr., Mike Reft (also picked up the K&N Performer award), Justin Lamb, Josh Holtgraver, and Colton Flinner. Dusty Curry, Will Thomas and Colton Flinner won the heats for the 25 cars on hand.

In the Sunoco Race Fuels DIRTcar Sportsman Cadets, Monongahela PA's Pat Weldon won his 4th win of the season. Weldon started 11th and battled early leader Brian Huchko the entire distance to get the win. Huchko had his best run of the season to finish second followed by Nick Kocuba, Jake Simmons, Pat Hanley (making his first start of the season), Mike Harris, Bill Slade, Eric Piotrowski, Jenn Barker, and Craig Koteles. Two red flags marred the feature, with Vince Laboon barrel rolling the #17, and Koteles #64 catching fire. Nick Kocuba and Vince Laboon won the heats. The K&N Performer was Bill Slade.

West Mifflin PA's Gary Smith continued on his roll in the Miley BP Car Wash DIRTcar Hobby Stocks, winning his 4th feature in the last 5 races. Smith took the lead on the first lap and held off Joe Podolinsky, Chase Evans, Steve Pyeritz and Hannah Ramsey to pick up the win. Joe Podolinsky grabbed the heat win.
