BAKERSFIELD, CA -- In the NASCAR Winston Racing Series Late Model "Chevron 50" Mike Duncan of Bakersfield took an early lead only to have Mike Alsup get a little too close sending Duncan hard into the back straight-away wall. Duncan was out and Alsup was sent to the back.

On the restart Jason Small jumped into the lead and drove straight to the winner’s circle for his first win of the season. "I’ve been so close all season, but then something would break or I’d loop it. Tonight, this victory feels good. My crew has been great," said Small. Jason Small drives both the Late Models and the NASCAR Winston West.

The top five included Small, another Winston West driver Jerry Cain of Canyon Country, Kevin Vernon, Roger Mears, Jr. and Alsup.

Vernon moved one point closer to Alsup’s lead with Duncan just thirteen points behind them in 3rd.

In Modified Stocks Danny Collins dominated moving quickly into the number one position until he drove straight into the winner’s circle. Gene Fife of Tehachapi, Dave Howell of Rosamond, and Trev Taylor and Jerry Smith finished out the top five.

The NASCAR Winston Racing Series Street Stocks was the race of the night. The field of twenty-eight cars started with a full invert. Points leaders were challenged to move from the back in twenty-five laps and they met their challenge.

Danny Collins did double duty in Street Stocks and Modified Stocks and quickly made his way to the front only to be challenged by the points leaders in the series. By lap-17 Collins, Mike White and Mike Riale were three-wide for the lead and Mike Alexander was pushing for position. A yellow slowed the action and Mike White got Collins on the restart and Alexander moved into 2nd. But White quickly had to dodge another lapped car and Alexander got the advantage.

On the checkered flag lap Alexander and White were door-handle-to-door handle. Only the scorers could tell who won the photo finish event. It was Mike White who was invited to the winner’s circle for his 3rd win of the season.

"I just want to thank all the racers for racing clean and being so competitive," said White. "It was a great night for me coming from the back and I want to thank everyone who has helped."

In the 911 Race for Youth, Chuck Brady of the Bakersfield Police Department took any early lead. The Kern County Sheriff’s Department challenged the field, but got tapped and sent to the back. "I was moving over," said Sheriff Dave Fessler, "but I guess it wasn’t fast enough. This racing is a great time." Next Saturday night, the Ultra Wheel Spec Trucks return to Mesa Marin for the second time this season. Grand Americans, Street Stocks and 911 Race For Youth return. Plus the inaugural race of the season for the Campus Motorsports -- the High School Series with seven participating school teams.

Gates open at 5:30. Racing begins at 7:30. Tickets are $8 for general admission with Kids 12 and under free.
