What won the race: Mason Zeigler of Chalk Hill, Pa., led all 35 laps from the pole and held off late pressure from Rick Eckert to win Tuesday's $5,000 Selinsgrove Ford Appalachian Mountain Speedweek feature at Path Valley Speedway. Zeigler was slowed by lapped traffic in the late stages but held on to beat Eckert to the line by 0.694 of a second for the $5,000 payday and his first career Speedweek victory.

Quotable: “What a racy little place. I like it better when it’s got a big massive cushion I can lean on it there, but when it gets like this and you see (Rick Eckert) is behind you, it makes your ass pucker because you know he’s gonna be good,” Zeigler said. “I hate racing in that condition because I struggle with most of it, but I’m happy we were able to get it done. We probably should’ve stayed back from Eldora and came to the other (AMS races), but we have a lot more fun seems like racing around home.”

Key notes: Zeigler notched his second overall victory of the season after topping May 10's United Late Model Series season opener at Latrobe (Pa.) Speedway, worth $7,500. ...

Speedway, recovered to ninth after tangling with Danny Snyder and spinning on the opening lap. Satterlee charged from 20th over the final 20 laps. Snyder continued until pulling off on lap 25 and was credited with 21st. ... Jason Covert spun on the third lap, triggering the race's second caution, then pulled off. Covert "bent something" on his backup car, the second incident of Speedweek after he junked his primary car Saturday at Port Royal.
