Camargo, IL (5-10-09) by Kelly Brown - Public Relations Director – After his victory last night at Port Royal, Stevie Smith was clearly the favorite going into tonight’s main event. Smith did not disappoint as he appeared the second night in a row in victory lane at Port Royal Speedway.

The first Yellow Flag flew just as the leaders were beginning to get into lapped traffic. As Smith was trying catching Pat Cannon to put a lap on him, the 17 car broke loose in Turn 3 and spun in front of Smith forcing him to take evasive action. When the Green Flag was shown to the field again it was short lived as Ryan Bunton’s 6r began to limp on course with a flat left rear tire.

On the restart, Smith dashed into the first corner with Blaney in his tracks, but Smith was able to put some distance between his 1 and Blaney’s 2 car. It was déjà vu on Lap 14 when the yellow banner was unfurled again as Cannon looped the 17 car around in Turn 2. Although this time Ryan Bunton got caught up in the incident and it ended both of their nights.

When the race resumed Smith continued to hold on to the top spot until there was another pause in the racing action a few laps later. In Turn 4, the 88 of Todd Shaffer and 22 of Greg Hodnett made contact and the 15 of Adam Wilt spun to miss the tangled cars.  This ended the night for Hodnett, but Shaffer and Wilt continued at the back of the field.
