A lap 1 restart courtesy Richard Calmes, Jr. put \u201cRagin\u201d Rodney Wright in 2nd and a very ill Mike Stalnaker in 3rd. Gamble dominated the first 8 laps but broke giving Wright the lead that he gave up on lap 10 with a cut right rear tire. Stalnaker would lead with Josh Byrd and Hunter Gustafson behind in a strong and surprising top 3.<!--more-->Stalnaker and Byrd fought for a few laps with Byrd making the pass on lap 12. Alvin Adkison stopped on the frontstretch setting 3 laps to go up. Byrd held the field off to beat Wright by half a car and Stalnaker. Wally Schneider and Hunter Gustafson completed the top 5.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-11906\" href=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/front-page-news\/wow\/attachment\/rew-bubbarp-6-30_9742-3\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11906\" title=\"REW-BubbaRP-6-30_9742-3\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/REW-BubbaRP-6-30_9742-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\" \/><\/a>Modifieds tried it next over 25 laps. Garret Stewart led lap 1 from the outside pole but lost it on lap 12 when Mark Whitener passed him slightly before Bubba Christian spun in turn 3. Whitener promptly pulled away as \u201c4-Time\u201d Jeff Mathews passed Stewart for 2nd. It all went away on lap 16 when Mathews just stopped in turn 4 after getting 90 degrees sideways leaving Whitener, Stewart, and \u201cThe Killer\u201d Kyle Bronson (in the 66 after a heat race accident) as the top 3. Bronson the leader 1 lap later as the other 2 scrambled behind him. Whitener gathered it back and the fight was on with 4 to go as \u201cThe Gunslinger\u201d broke in turn 4 from 3rd bringing the yellow out. Rich Pratt would inherit P3. Bronson\u2019s right front suspension broke in turn 2 as he led taking away a massive points night but the drive was spectacular. Pratt to P2 and Dalton Lanich to 3rd. A 3 lap dash would finish it. Lanich took 2nd from Pratt before Pratt\u2019s right front went down showing the unbelievable luck he has had at his home track. Lanich the new 2nd place man, Buzzie Reutimann 3rd. Whitener beat Lanich to the stripe as Mathews went into the wall in turn 4. Buzzie held onto 3rd with \u201cMr. Opportunity\u201d Chuck Gustafson, Jr. 4th and Jason Intoppa rounded out the top 5.<\/p>\n<p>Late Models put on a 25-lapper that would have to match the amazing Modifieds after a short intermission. Pole Sitter \u201cCatfish\u201d Keith Nosbisch led lap 1 then promptly surrendered it to Richard Ferry on lap 2 who gave it right back on lap 3. Action slowed on lap 9 when Ferry appeared to break and limped to the pits for the night. \u201cCatfish\u201d held the lead while Jeff Mathews and Jack Nosbisch, Jr. followed. Mathews powered by Nosbisch to take P1 while Whitener fought from 6th to 3rd in half a lap. Nosbisch got back around Whitener as Mathews pulled away. Jeff Mathews is a Late Model winner. Keith Nosbisch, Whitener, Jack Nosbisch, Jr., and Bryan Bernhardt completed the top 5.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-11909\" href=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/front-page-news\/wow\/attachment\/rew-bubbarp-6-30_9693\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-11909\" title=\"REW-BubbaRP-6-30_9693\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/REW-BubbaRP-6-30_9693.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\" \/><\/a>Jonathan Appleby led all 20 laps in a blow out for the Thunderstocks. A caution for Brandon Tillander on lap 4 was the only stoppage. Brian Mullins was again P2 with \u201cThe Closer\u201d Jason Gamble 3rd, James Sullivan, III 4th, and \u201cGhost Rider\u201d John Thorpe in 5th. Appleby is the first driver this season to win back-to-back in this division.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTerrific\u201d Tony LaPorta and \u201cRockin\u201d Reid Christensen went blow for blow over the first 12 laps for the Gladiators before Christensen dropped off pace. Brandon Haseleu struck at the right time for a runner-up finish nipping Christensen at the line. Billy Holmes finished 4th and Kody Fisher rounded out the top 5. Of course, with LaPorta and Steve Johnson in a points battle (and Johnson in need of a car after a heat race crash) Bobby Graham loaned the 126 out to Johnson for the night as most competitors at Bubba Raceway Park would do.<\/p>\n<p>Bubba Raceway Park will observe the unofficial July 4 weekend by taking next week-end off allowing fans, staff, crews, and drivers a well deserved vacation.
