BEEBE, Ark. (August 27) - "The Batesville Bullet" Wendell Wallace outgunned the competition on Friday night at Beebe Speedway (Beebe, Arkansas) to gain his first COMP Cams MSRA Super Late Model win of the 2010 season.
Via passing points, Jon Mitchell earned the JFR Graphics pole position for the 30 lap feature, which paid $2,000 to win. He was joined on the front row by Shane Stephens. Mitchell would snag the lead at the drop of the green flag as Billy Moyer Jr., Wendell Wallace, and Brandon Smith joined the pursuit.
Mitchell would lead early in the feature before rearend issues caused him to start slowing as the event progressed. On an early race restart, Wendell Wallace would race past Mitchell to take the lead as Moyer Jr. soon followed to move into the third spot. As Wallace and Moyer Jr. began to battle for the lead, a pair of drivers were on the move as 12th starting, Bill Frye, and 14th starting, Curtis Cook, worked through the pack.
As the race continued, Wallace would slowly begin to creep away from the pack and would go on to claim the feature win over Billy Moyer Jr., Bill Frye, Curtis Cook, and Joey Mack.
With his second place finish, Billy Moyer Jr. won the RiceTec Summer Showdown and claimed the $1,000 top prize for his efforts. Jon Mitchell won $500 from GRT Race Cars for being the top performing GRT competitor in the miniseries. Bill Frye won a Fast Shafts Driveshaft, while Jon Kirby received an Integra certificate for a shock rebuild and Joey Mack received an Integra certificate for a Spring Package.
Dewaine Hottinger received the Quarter Master Hard Luck Award after a broken ball joint in heat race action while leading, forced him to a b-main, where he would sustain heavy damage to his car in a melee. He would use a provisional to start at the back of the feature and would retire early with a badly wounded entry.
Heat race action was topped by Jon Mitchell, Billy Moyer Jr., Wendell Wallace, and Shane Stephens, while Terry Henson won the b-main.
