What won the race: Driving the final 15 circuits with a busted power steering line, polesitter Anthony Sanders of Spartanburg, S.C., led all 40 laps of the second annual Ed Gibbons Memorial at Sumter Speedway on Saturday, earning his first career feature victory with the Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series while collecting $5,007.

Quotable: “To be honest at 12 o’clock today I wasn’t even sure if I was coming to this place,” Sanders said. “This ain’t my best racetrack. I said, ‘The hell with it. Let’s go down there and run.’ It’s a fun little track I just wish it could be a little more multigroove. Lapped traffic was kinda hard to pass here. I knew if we could just get out front and kinda ride and set the pace we’d be alright. I was doing great until the power steering went out. After that it was just a handful.”
