NEWBERRYTOWN, Penn. (July 31) - On one of the best prepared tracks in the history of the SSP, Dover's Justin Ehrhart did his patented backflip off the roof of his car in victory lane after winning the 20-lap Late Model feature event at the Susquehanna Speedway Park on Saturday night. The side-by-side, sometimes three and four wide action continued in the Street Stock feature with Jim Palm Jr. of Loysville picking up the victory. Tim Hahn of York won his first Xtreme Stock feature event of the season while Andrew Frye of Etters won the XSC Elite feature event. Paul Bacchus won the PENNMAR Vintage Car feature and Daryl Sipe of York Haven was declared the Mini Van winner when Butch Richcreek was disqualified for failing to report to post-race technical inspection.

The Late Model feature event began with Tommy Slanker taking the lead and setting sail in search of his first career Late Model victory. Slanker was challenged numerous times by Ehrhart who tried the middle and bottom of the track. Unable to make the pass on Slanker for 12 laps, Ehrhart was finally able to make his move on the 13th circuit. Behind Ehrhart, a wild six car battle for second place ensued between Slanker, Jake Jones, Larry Baer, Bob Minnich, Chris Knopp and Charles Potts. At the end, Ehrhart picked up his second feature victory of the season with Jones finishing second and Slanker garnering the third place podium finish. Baer and Knopp rounded out the top five. Heat race victories went to Slanker, Minnich and Potts.
