JORDAN WATSON GOES WIRE TO WIRE TO WIN 2ND 20
The field was inverted for the second 20-lap NAPA Big Block Modified feature. Jordan Watson, who had broken a transmission in the first 20 lapper quickly shot from fourth starting spot to the front on lap one. Dave Dissinger held the second spot until lap three when JoJo Watson took the spot. The yellow was out at this point when Shawn Ward came to a stop and under the yellow Brad Trice headed to the pits.
On the restart, H.J. Bunting moved into third and two laps later was up to second. Beau Wilkins, who started in tenth, came charging through the field dropping Bunting to third at the halfway sign. Jordan Watson continued to build a lead until lap 13 when Drew Simmons came to a stop. On the restart, Jamie Mills grabbed third from Bunting and one lap later JoJo Watson scraped by for fourth.
Simmons got around a second time on lap 19 setting up a one lap shoot out. Jordan Watson took off at the drop of the green and sped to his third win of the year. Wilkins finished in the second spot with JoJo Watson getting by Mills on the final lap for third. Mills finished in the fourth spot with Bunting fifth.
“I have to thank my Grandfather (Eugene Mills) and my Uncle Jamie for lending me this engine.� said Watson. “We lost our engine last week at Georgetown and wouldn’t have been here without their help.�
