Shane Hartline won the USRA Modified main event.

Open-wheel veteran Shane Hartline, rising star Rowdy Day and veteran stock car pilot Marty Hicks all won features in their respective divisions as officials presented a full card of KR Cup action during the Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series Saturday evening at Rocket Raceway Park.

Hartline powered to victory in the 20-lap main event for USRA Modifieds—round 3 in the track's new Rocket Challenge. Day prevailed in a hotly-contested feature for USRA Limited Mods while Hicks was triumphant in a torrid battle for Sunoco USRA Factory Stock warriors.

Meanwhile, Shelby Williams won his third feature in three starts with the Douglass Distributing Medieval USRA Stock Cars.

Hartline, of Ivanhoe, drove underneath early leader Shawn Gammage to take command at lap nine and pulled away to a convincing win. Wendall Bolden crossed the stripe in second, while Wayne Melton filled out the podium.

Mitchell Clement drove from eighth on the 17-car grid to finish fourth, while Gammage faded to fifth in the closing laps.

​Shelby Williams won the Medieval USRA Stock Car main event.

“I kinda like it when there's a little bit of stick out there,” Hartline told veteran promoter Kevin Rogers in Ballistic Trailer Sales.com Victory Lane. “It was a tough deal tonight. I appreciate the hard work that went into the track surface. I want to thank all the fans for coming out; they make this sport what it is.”

Finishing sixth through 10th in the Walker, Warren & Jordan Surveying USRA Modified feature were Michael Riskey, Danny Veal, Lance Plant, Ross Malone II and Cody Blanton. Only two cautions slowed the pace, both coming out at lap 12 for minor incidents.

Hartline's margin of victory over Bolden was a whopping 3.677 seconds, as he was on rails all night.

Day, of Greenville, led all 20 laps of his feature but had to fend off one of the region's top veterans for the win. Billy Brierton kept the pressure on Day all race long yet settled for second, while Rowdy's father, Jimmy Day, finished third to complete a sweep of the podium for Greenville drivers.

Blake Beggs (Terell,) and Chad Ross (Sulphur Springs) completed the top five.

“We're doing everything we can to stay up front this year,” Day said. “These cars are getting faster and faster every week. We had some issues last night at 67 Speedway, but we got it all put back together.

“We tried a few things tonight to see if the car would like it, and she really didn't like it too much. So now we know, and we won't do it next time.”

Finishing sixth through 10th in the Coston & Son Redi Mix USRA Limited Mod feature were Brian Orr, Donald Fetty, Thad Royle, Shannon Poe and Cody Blanton. Three cautions slowed the pace, none for serious incidents. Day's margin of victory over Brierton was a comfortable 1.117 seconds.

Rowdy Day won the USRA Limited Mod main event.

Hicks, of Powderly, led all 20 laps of his feature yet had to fend off a hard-charging Jeff Hammitt to prevail. After tangling earlier on with Deaon Redmon, Hammitt recovered nicely to make a valiant attempt to overtake Hicks.

Redmond hung on for third, while Billy Davis drove from 16th on the grid to finish fourth. Billy White also did his fair share of passing, wheeling up from 10th to complete the top five.

“It's been going pretty good here lately,” Hicks said in victory lane. “I finally got my motor lined out; and the track has been awesome. I want to thank my sponsors for their support, and of course my lovely wife for all she does. Things are really coming together for us this year.”

Finishing sixth through 10th in the By-Line Surveying Sunoco USRA Factory Stock main event were James Proctor, Jesse Freelen, Bobby Glover, Brandon Betts and Nicholas Kirby. Only two cautions slowed the pace—one for Bryce Pritchett's broken axle and the other for the Redmon/Hammitt tangle.

Marty Hicks won the Sunoco USRA Factory Stock main event.

Hicks' margin of victory over Hammitt was a scant 0.547 seconds as the 'Pride of Edgewood, Texas' was hungry to win after finishing third at 67 Speedway on Friday night.
