Man oh man....who thought it was a good idea to tape from a bucket truck?! Not the best recording but we learn from our mistakes. lol
Mother nature played with us at the beginning of the day where we weren't sure if we would be racing or not. But she remained kind and 5 drivers made it to the track. Unfortunately, during the heats the #12 of Izral Daniels had to resign for the night due to mechanical issues. This left #28 of new comer Matt Corbett, #17 of Zach Blackwell, #76 of Richie Young, and #11 of Steve Dunn. Zach Blackwell dominated the field with a close following from Matt Corbett. Richie Young maintained 3rd position for the night while Steve Dunn struggled with mechanical issues.
Only 1 caution with Matt and Richie spinning in between turn 1 and 2 with no damage.
Ultimately, the checkered flag went to Zach Blackwell and the crew of the #17.

What can be said about this race......a whole bunch!
8 cautions, 2 multi car accidents, 1 roll over....and a partridge in a pear tree!
The field started with 13 highly skilled drivers. Turns 3 and 4 seemed to be the challenge of the evening as 7 out of 8 cautions were at those turns. The 2X of Troy Van Allen remained out front for the entire race but by the end, there were only 6 cars to follow him to the checkers.
Caution 1 tied up 4 cars between 3 and 4. 76 Richie Young, 115 Kurtis Whitney, 00JR Scott Davis Jr, and 39 Steve Murray Jr.
Cautiion 2 was a spin by the 9 car of Kevin Whitney.
Caution 3- 61 of Eddie Danials cut down from the outside of turn 4 where 12 of Izral Daniels made contact and the 61 then barrel rolled down the front stretch. 76 of Richie Young successfully dodged those 2 cars but ended up making contact with the 11 of Steve Dunn causing 11 to spin and end in the infield. All involved were ok.
Caution 4 was a spin for the 39 of Steve Murray Jr. The 115 of Kurtis Whitney avoided the 39 but hit the wall in turn 4.
Caution 5 was a spin for the 76 of Richie Young just outside turn 2 on the back stretch.
Caution 6 was a spin for the 28 of Matt Corbett in turn 3.
Caution 7 was another spin in turn 4 for 76 Richie Young.
Caution 8 was a spin for 28 Matt Corbett.
With all the action behind him, 2X Troy Van Allen continued to lead the field to the checkered flag.
4- Izral

Good clean racing tonight with only 2 spin out cautions. Good racing y'all!
With 4 cautions, tonight's race took a familiar Victor.
Caution 1 came out when the 12 of Izral Daniels spun coming in to turn 4.
Caution 2 then came similarly with the 50 of Thomas Brown spinning in turn 2.
On the restart, 61 Eddie Daniels got in to 11 of Steve Dunn causing Steve to spin in the pack with only 1 other car, 00JR Scott Davis Dr, getting caught up. This later led to the final caution of the night when the damage took its toll and 00JR rolled to a stop in turn 2.
93 of Donovan Jackson led the heat the entire race to take home the checkered.
Another night of good clean racing with 2 cautions.
The weather held out for a good night of racing. 4 cautions for the 15 lap feature
Caution ⚠️ 1- The 12 of Izral Daniels in turn 2
Caution ⚠️ 2- Izral spins in turn 4
Caution ⚠️ 3- 61 of Eddie Daniels spins in turn 4 with the 11, Steve Dunn, and 12, Izral Daniels getting caught up in it and ending the night for Steve Dunn.
Caution ⚠️ 4- Eddie Daniels spins in turn 4
Troy Van Allen pulls away from the restart to take the checkers.
.Graciously, Lake View added us last minute to their schedule after a last minute race cancelation. We ran a 15 lap feature with 4 cautions.
From the time the green flag first waived to the time the checkered flew The 61 of Eddie Daniels found his spot leafing the pack. Even when the caution flag waived on lap 10 due to a spin on turn 4 by the 50 of Thomas Brown, or when the caution waived again at lap 18 due to a front stretch spin by the 50 of Thomas Brown, there was just no stopping him.
congratulations Eddie Daniels and the 61 car crew on the first win of the 2024 season.
Welcome back to Dixieland!
Brandon Dennis of the V75 put forth an impressive run leading the entire race to take home the checkers.

Lap 14 Scott Davis Jr 00Jr spun coming out of turn 4 and Tim White then spun coming out of turn 1.

Mother nature made for a difficult night but Rockfish kept up with track conditions where we were able to complete our 20 lap feature.
With a rain delay and late start, there were only 2cautions. Both of which were spins in turn 4. Tim White of the 16, led the entire race to take home the checkers.
