Colten Burdette gets up to speed at Skyline Speedway.
What won the race: In a race where multiple frontrunners were eliminated, 10th-starting Colten Burdette of Parkersburg, W.Va., outdueled Michael Lake on a green-white-checkered finish to win Saturday's 40th annual Harvest 50 at Skyline Speedway. Burdette passed Lake on the final lap and beat him by 0.388 of a second for the $5,000 payday, his second consecutive Valvoline American Late Model Iron-Man victory and third-career series win.
Key notes: Burdette collected a total of $6,530 after a $1,530 bonus thanks to Steve Shaver at Berkshire Hathaway Home Services. ... Burdette became the race's fourth leader and paced only the final lap for his third Iron-Man victory this season, his second straight after winning Sept. 20 at Ohio's Atomic Speedway, also worth $5,000. ... It's his second Skyline special after topping June 21's local Super Late Model field for $3,000. ... Seventh-starting Michael Lake briefly led on the lap-50 restart before Burdette got by on the final lap. ... Zack Dohm battled by mid-race leader Chris Carpenter and led the 49th lap before they tangled and spun just before taking the checkers, triggering the third and final caution. Dohm did not continue and was credited with 10th while Carpenter, who led laps 38-48, finished seventh. ... Points leader Rusty Schlenk led the opening 37 laps from the pole before retiring under the race's second yellow on lap 38 after appearing to lose an engine. He was credited with 16th. ... Schlenk now leads Burdette by one point with three races left in the season. ... Seth Daniels passed Clint Keenan for fifth just before the lap-50 caution before Keenan got back by him on the final restart. ... Seven-time Harvest 50 winner Tyler Carpenter worked his way to second by the 10th lap only to retire on lap 17. ... The 40th annual Harvest 50 lasted 31 minutes with nine starters running at the finish.
On the move: Caiden Black of New Concord, Ohio, started 16th and finished third.
