With another tough field of competitors on hand, it was the veteran Billy Brierton of Greenville parlaying his pole position into his first victory of the season on Saturday, and another seasoned speedster—Wayne Melton of Caddo Mills—taking home runner-up money.

Casey Fowler of Grand Saline garnered the third spot, followed by 11th-starting Michael Rhodes of Paris and Michael Riskey of Caddo Mills in one of four divisions battling for Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series track, regional and national points.

Douglass Distributing Medieval USRA Stock Cars saw Bryce Pritchett of Crandall outgun Combine’s Lee McCullough for his third win of 2022 while Cody Cline of Sulphur Springs, Ryan Freelen of Paris and John Winters of Pattonville completed the top five.

Meanwhile, Rowdy Day of Greenville notched his seventh triumph of the year in the Coston & Son Ready Mix USRA Limited Mods.

Joe Findling of Forney, Shannon Hartline of Ivanhoe, Leon Hill of Melissa and 12th-starting Michael Grubbs of Plano rounded out the top five.

Making his second trip of the night into Ballistic Trailers Victory Lane, Pritchett claimed the By-Line Surveying Sunoco USRA Factory Stock feature, this time besting Tristan McCullough of Crandall.

Points leader Deaon Redmon of Paris was third, Michael Smith of Paris finished fourth and the fifth spot went to Alan Screws of Pickton.
