What won the race: Surviving a caution-plagued first half of the race, Jared Miley led the final 23 laps at Thunder Mountain Speedway, pulling away to win the Stephanie Eckl Memorial by nearly 7 seconds. Miley earned $4,000 as he stretched his ULMS points lead with his second straight series victory. The race was slowed by 16 caution flags.
Key notes: Miley has six career ULMS victories. ... Miley inherited the lead on lap 13 when Gregg Satterlee had a flat tire under caution; Satterlee rallied to finish third. ... Polesitter Jason Witherite led at least one lap in the early going when Satterlee got out of shape in turn three. ... Numerous cautions and a red flag slowed the first half of the 35-lapper. ... Runner-up Boom Briggs and fast qualifier Chad Valone were among drivers blowing tires early in the feature; Valone got back up to third and blew another tire on lap 21. ... Eleven drivers completed 35 laps. ... The 11th annual Stephanie Eckl Memorial paid tribute to the late fan of racer Bob Close who died in an automobile accident. ... Stephanie's father Greg Eckl raised more than $5,500 to add to the race purse, including $200 for the hard charger and $150 for fast qualifier. ... The event paid $400-to-start.
On the move: Jason Dupont started 18th and finished fourth.
