BUSTI - Greg Johnson narrowly defeated a determined Justin Tatlow to win the E-Mod King of the Hill, besting 35 cars for the $1,000 prize then survived several cautions to win his first E-Mod feature of the year at Stateline

Speedway Saturday night.

John Boardman came from 12th to win his fifth Super Sportsman feature in seven starts. It was only a matter of time and Chad Valone's time was Saturday as he led from lap four to win his first Super Late Model feature of the season and extend his point lead.

Mike Moore became the first repeat winner in the Outlaw Cadet class winning a caution filled event from his 14th starting spot, Brandon Groters charged from 14 in a caution-filled Spectator feature for his first win of the season, Brenda Jackson won the Lady Challenger event from her eighth starting spot and Rich Langer won the first Super Challenger feature and William Pinkney won the second.

Lap one ended almost before it began in the E-Mod feature event as a car spun in turn one. The second start worked better with Mike Munsee leading Greg Johnson by a nose. The yellow reappeared on lap two. Munsee, Johnson, Vic Vena, Justin Tatlow and Randy Hall were the leaders.

Munsee got a big jump on the restart, but the yellow quickly flew as Tatlow and Dave Shagla tangled in turn four. Munsee, Vena, Johnson, Hall and Tim Peterson were the restart leaders. Munsee went wide coming out of turn two on the restart and Johnson took advantage and became the new leader. Shagla, Butch Southwell, Steve Huling, Ron Seeley, Chris Couchenour and Cale Crocker were involved in a multi-car incident on lap four for yellow four. It was Johnson, Vena, Munsee and Hall after the restart. Point-leader Justin Carlson was sixth.

A lap-eight spin by Randy Raynor brought out caution five. Carlson took fifth just before the crossed flags as Johnson led Vena by several car lengths. Hall fell back to fifth and Carlson grabbed fourth. Hall had troubles on lap 15 bringing out the caution.

Vena tested Johnson on the restart, but Johnson was up to the test. The top four were single file in the low groove for the final three laps. Carlson nosed under Vena on the final circuit and came up just short as Johnson won his first of the year.

Chris Hackett and Rod Maloy led the Super Late Model field to the green. Point-leader Chad Valone was in row two alongside Scott Gurdak. Doug Ricotta and Doug Eck made up row three of the 26-car field.

Hackett led Valone on the first circuit with Maloy third and Gurdak fourth. Valone had the inside and led lap four just before the yellow flew for Ryan Scott stopped up against the wall between turns three and four. Valone, Hackett, Maloy, Gurdak and Eck were the top five for the lap five restart.

Valone fired first on the restart and led lap five by five car lengths. A spin by Greg Oakes brought out the second yellow on lap six. Maloy was now second with Hackett third followed by Gurdak and Eck.

Bump Hedman stopped up against the turn four wall bringing out the third caution with nine laps complete. Scott Johnson and Matt Urban tangled on the restart for yellow No. 5. Valone stayed in the low groove with Maloy closely behind. Hackett regained the third spot.

Darrell Bossard and Ricotta spun coming out of turn two for caution six and 14 laps remained. Yellow seven appeared two laps later for Rich Gardner and Ryan Scott. Gurdak was the only one in the top five to try the high line after the restart. Eck moved up with Gurdak and promptly lost two spots to John Lobb and Andy Boozel.

Valone led Maloy by five car lengths with five laps remaining and Hackett and Gurdak were a distant third and fourth. Ryan Scott brought out the eighth caution with three laps remaining. Gurdak once again went high and regained third from Hackett. but could not overtake Maloy and Valone.
