SEYMOUR, Tenn. — Young gun Dalton
Davis from Millington, Tenn. won the curfew-shortened United Sprint Car Series
feature at 411 Motor Speedway Friday night.The story line was set as drivers were prepared to make their move to

repeated challenges by defending series champion Tim “Crawdaddy” Crawley. Pole-sitter
Anthony Nicholson held off a hard charging Derek Hagar for third while
multi-time USCS champion Terry Gray came home in fifth.

treated to 2 K&N power dashes featuring the top 6 drivers from the last

Anthony Nicholson from Bartlett Tennessee up on the wheel as #88 Tim Crawley kept
him in his sights. Jeff Willingham from Ripley, MS was third with Terry Gray,
Derek Hagar and Ray Bugg following. The “Carolina Kid” Eric Riggins Jr. led
flag-to-flag in the second K&N power dash for the Southern thunder region
with Terry Gray ”The Original Outlaw” nipping at his heals followed by Derek Hagar,
Lance Moss from Cherryville, NC, Morgan Turpen and Tim Crawley rounding out the
6 car dash.

The ROCKAUTO.COM USCS mini sprint
feature hit the track with a roar as front row Chris Openshaw from Bessemer,
Alabama and Matt McCullough from Atlanta, Georgia set the pace and came
screaming off of turn four in a hard fought battle for the first 6 laps. Bobby
Zaiontz moved his way into the second position on lap 7 and dogged the #17 of Openshaw
the remainder of the feature race. The #1 of Zaiontz said he had a good car but
just could not complete the pass for the lead. Clean racing was the order of
the night as the large 411 crowd were on their feet cheering the heated battle.
McCullough finished a strong third followed by “Magic” Mike Magic in forth and
an impressive run from the rear of the field by Shawn Nelson from Ooltewah, Tenn
for the fifth position.
