Subject: Southside Speedway Results from August 5, 2011
The largest field of cars this season, in both the Late Model and GrandStock divisions, highlighted a great night of racing at Southside Speedway on Friday. Nineteen Late Models took the green flag for the first of two 50 lappers and Chris Dodson came from his
sixth place starting position to hold off Eddie Johnson to take the checkered. Dodson had the
race under control, but a late caution and the cone restart put Eddie Johnson beside of Dodson for
the green, white, checkered restart. Dodson was able to hold for the win, followed by Johnson,
Brad Davis, Jeff Oakley and Raymond Pittman. Winstead in the Golden Eagle Energy Chevy was running as high as 4th until a right front flat ended the teams run prematurely.
Race #2:
After Dodson drew a 7 for the redraw in race two, Jeff Oakley took advantage and picked up
his second win of the season in the second 50 lap race for the Late Models. He was followed by
Eddie Johnson, Chris Dodson, A.J. Winstead and Mike Kersey.
Fifteen Grand Stocks were on hand and Austin Dodge also picked up his second win of the
season. Dodge drove his Chevy ahead of Bobby Curtis, J.D. Eversole, Todd Ruggles and Woody
Ellington.
