Ryan Middaugh won the USRA Modified main event.

USRA Modified points leader Ryan Middaugh of Fulton, Mo., led all 20 laps as he rolled to his fourth Lucas Oil Speedway feature win of the season Saturday during the CMH Diamond Nationals presented by Summit Racing Equipment.

"The redraw can hurt you or it can help you," said Middaugh, who started on the pole. "Starting on the front row, it helped. Keeping Nic (Bidinger) behind me—I knew he was gonna be tough. But we had a really good car. The track was really good.

"We're having a heck of a year. The car is three years old and it seems to be getting better."

Middaugh opened a 1.8-second lead over Bidinger by the halfway mark with Paden Phillips running third. The Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national points leader pulled away from there.

Middaugh wound up 2.56 seconds in front of Bidinger with Phillips third, Jeff Cutshaw fourth and Jason Pursley in fifth.

USRA Stock Cars win goes to Dimmitt: Waylon Dimmitt of Camdenton, Mo., took over the lead on lap 10 and pulled away late to capture the Medieval USRA Stock Car feature.

While picking up his third victory of the Lucas Oil Speedway season, Dimmitt beat Johnny Fennewald by 1.8 seconds.

"The track was good and slick and the cautions helped us out some," Dimmitt said after an event with seven cautions.

Dimmitt started 14th but took over the lead midway through the 20-lapper. he was a second in front of William Garner when the final caution slowed the action on lap 12.

Dean Wille rallied back to second by lap 14, but Dimmitt was pulling away and with the race staying green he was able to secure the win.

Garner wound up third with Chris Dishong fourth and Ed Griggs in fifth.
