BEDFORD, Penn. (August 27) - It was the Bedford/Roaring Knob shootout for Super Late Models at the Bedford Speedway Friday night, and Derek Byler became the first driver to reach three wins this season in the division. Tim Smith, Jr. earned his first win of the season in the Limited Late Models, and Jim Sayler endured for an emotional Street Stock feature win. Bill Replogle was victorious in the Hobby Stocks, and Andrew Pluta picked up his third win of the season in the 4 cylinder division.

Rookie sensation Derek Byler started on the pole for the Super Late Model main event, but it was Greg Fetters who took the early lead. The top six ran in a tight pack side by side, with Fetters on the top, Byler on the bottom, and Jack Pencil, Tyler Hershey, Jeff Rine, and Coleby Frye giving chase. Byler took the lead late in the race, and tenth starting Frye moved into second with two laps to go. Frye, who has won every time he's been to Bedford this year, had to settle for the runner up position this time as Byler took the checkered. Following Byler and Frye was Fetters, Hershey, and Rine. Completing the top ten was Jeff Miller, Scott Haus, Chuck Clise, Tom Decker, Jr., and Bryan Bernheisel. Jack Pencil, who was running in the top five on the last lap, suffered a flat tire and faded to eleventh at the finish. Hershey and Pencil won the preliminary heats, and Coleby Frye was the Tri-State Racing Photos Hard Charger.
