MACON -- Macon Speedway got lucky with a few days of good weather to put together a great night of racing Saturday night. The track crew at Macon had the racing surface in perfect condition this week, and it showed with some great nose-to-nose racing. Carl Clark from Blue Mound is taking home a new car thanks to Kenny's Car Giveaway. Macon Speedway also picked six more qualifiers for the Tony's Tahoe Giveaway. June Hatch, Rodeny Aten, Carol Paceley, Kim Stahulak, Steve Hill and Jim Cleaver Jr. Will all have there chance to win a brand new Chevy Tahoe.
The Chevrolet Late Model feature went to Kyle Logue, his ninth win of the season. Macon native Kerby Damery passed Logue with two laps to go, but an unfortunate yellow flag put him back in second place.
Logue has a long lead in the late model championship points and The Big Ten MidWest Series. If Logue were to win the upcoming Herald and Review 100, he could win $6,000 plus a possible $10,000 bonus from the Big Ten MidWest Series for racing the required ten times at Macon Speedway.
Aaron Burcham finally broke through for his first BARBECK Communications Modified feature win at Macon Speedway Saturday night. He earned it, too. He had the most impressive Macon Speedway resume, Jim Leka, right behind him. Leka reeled Burcham in for a over the last three laps and finished door-to-door with the first time winner. Burcham always runs well when starting in the front and he proved it again. For Aaron, this was a long time coming. "I'm relieved and excited. All this stuff is just lifting off of me." Burcham said. Best fan in the stand driver Brad Crosby chose J.D. Cripe as his best fan, earning them both a $100 prize.
Jeff Graham stole the Hogan Grain/KUBOTA Sportsman feature win away from Scott Landers. Graham looked like he would be stuck with a fifth place finish. But with five laps to go, his inside line came to life. After making quick work of the cars in front of him, Graham passed Landers on the final turn. Graham's fans cheered as he passed the top four cars in the last five laps. Alan Crowder made an impressive run, sneaking his way up to second place.
Jeff Dodd in the UMP Hornet class came across the line in front of Fred Reed with points leader Bruce Dulgar finishing third.
Steve Ewing took home the Street Stock Special $400 to win and guaranteed himself a starting position in the 4th Annual IL State Street Stock Championship on September 6th.
Heidi Hames wins her first Feature in the Amateur Hornests.
