Dixon Continues Dominance

(Pevely, MO - Aug 19, 2000) Ed Dixon won his third consecutive feature and appears to be on his way to another championship in the UMP Late Model Division.

Tim Ratajczyk challenged Dixon for the lead after a restart late in the race but had to settle for second. Mark Gansmann, Dave Jumper and Jason Frankel completed the top five. Tim Ratajczyk won the other heat race.

In the UMP Modified Division, Jim Shereck's biggest competition came from his own backup car.

Dean Hoffman made a late race pass and took third, while Tom Ratajczyk and Rusty Griffaw finished fourth and fifth. Dennis Richards, Kevin Gundaker, Jim Shereck and Tom Ratajczyk won the heat races and Shereck also won the dash.
