What won the race: Sliding back by Sam Seawright on the 41st lap, second-starting Ashton Winger of Hampton, Ga., led the final four circuits to win Thursday's 44-lap Roscoe Smith Classic at Senoia Raceway. Winger led twice for 31 laps (1-27, 41-44) and beat Seawright by 0.654 of a second for the $7,544 victory on the Schaeffer's Southern Nationals.

Quotable: “I’m glad we’re able to keep winning these Roscoe Smith races,” Winger said. “The Smith family means so much to me, they do so much for me.”

Michael Page held third for all 44 laps. ... Wil Herrington ran fourth for much of the race until Dalton Cook slipped by him on the final lap. ... Jimmy Owens improved six spots and finished seventh aboard the Big Frog Motorsports No. 58v. ...

Allen Styck, Kenny Collins and Beckham Malone tangled on the ensuing restart attempt with resulting damage eliminating Styck. ... Shane Clanton slowed and retired for the third slowdown. ... Trey Mills spun for the final yellow flag on lap 18 after contact while Seawright was trying to lap him, then called it a night. ... The event honored racing veteran and father of Late Model driver ‘Cat Daddy’ Clint Smith, with the race held annually at their home track. ... The feature lasted 26 minutes, with nine starters completing the distance. ... Joseph Joiner scratched after breaking his car's right-front suspension in time trials; he had limited parts after towing there on an open trailer.
