Harris Rocks at Tri-County
Hudson, North Carolina (June 30, 2006) - Rock
Harris took home the win in  the
“Do the Dew 150”, presented by Mountain Dew, Friday night
at Tri-County Motor Speedway.
A field of 21 Late Model Stock racers descended on the 4/10th
mile speedway to attempt a shot at the $2000.00 winner’s
purse. Kevin Leicht was quickest by
qualifying with a time of 16.574 and started the feature from
the sixth starting spot, by virtue of the invert.
As the green flag was shown to the field, Brandon Dean and
Matt Leicht immediately started, then Travis Jarrett got a
turn at the point, as did Brandon Bonnett and Travis Mosely.
The first 12 laps had seven lead changes among five cars.
On the 12th lap, Harris took the lead and
was on his way to collect the money.
The battles were far from over, as Randy Porter and Leicht
kept the action hot, while Travis Swaim was ready to join the
hunt. Meanwhile, Ricky Bryant was laying
low and saving his car for the end.
At the halfway point, Harris was first with Kevin Leicht in
second, Swaim third, Matt Leicht fourth and Porter fifth.
As the race resumed, K. Leicht held second, while Swaim
took over third. With 25 laps remaining in the race, Swaim had
moved up to second with Bryant following in third.
Harris, Swaim and Bryant would come to the flag in that
order with Lee Tissot coming back from a spin on lap seven to
finish fourth. Porter was fifth, Josh Goble
was sixth, after starting 16th. Kevin
Leicht was seventh, Dean eighth, Matt Leicht ninth and Bonnett
was tenth in his first outing at the speedway.
Monty Cox came from the eighth starting spot to take the
win in the Super Stock 30 lap feature.
 Ricky
Brown grabbed the lead at the start and was able to hold it
until lap six, when he gave way to Don Carlton. Carlton
held the lead for two laps before Cox made his move and on lap
eleven Scott Franklin went by Carlton and then caution flew
for Carlton’s fallen window net. All the while David Messer
was in the thick of the battle and was being challenged by
Kaleb Pressley. On lap 16, Pressley took over third from
Messer.
Cox took the win, while an on track altercation between
Brown and Carlton was taking place on the track and in the
pits after the checkered flag. Both drivers ended up with
wrecked cars on pit road.
Franklin was second, Messer third, Pressley
fourth and Brown was fifth.
 Waylon
Flynn visited victory lane in the Street Stock race, with
Kevin Eby second, Marshall Sutton third, Kevin Townsend fourth
and Josh Burchette fifth.
Mike Hatton led the first two laps before giving up the
spot to Kevin Eby, who held onto the point for the next seven
laps until Flynn made his way to the front.
A crash on lap 10, involving Hatton, Jim Ledden and Jeff
Campbell brought out a caution. Hatton was
injured and taken to a local hospital where he was checked,
treated and released.
 The
Mini Stock feature went to Hank Hefner after a long battle
with A.J. Sanders. Sander took the lead on
lap two from Scott Whittington and Waylon Flynn then joined
the battle, keeping fans on the edge of their seat lap and
lap. Sanders led the first half of the
race, then Hefner made his move, but had to fend off the
advances made by Sanders for the remainder of the 20-lapper.
With Hefner earning the win, followed by Sanders, Doug Setzer
was third, Flynn fourth and George Anen, Jr. was fifth.
Jeff Wagoner was the best in the 13 car field of Fast &
Furious racers, while Jason Garwood was second, Nikki Long
third, Jackie Stone fourth and Stephen Clippard fifth.
 Jeff
Banks fought his way to the front in the Tri-County Mini
feature to take the win with Travis Cook second, Drew Bagwell
fourth, Matt Sizemore fifth and Tim McRae fifth.
This coming Friday night, July 7th, Tri-County
Motor Speedway will be taking a night off for employees,
competitors and fans to spend time with their families.
