Wayne Hale picked up his second victory of the season at Lonesome Pine Raceway in Coeburn, VA on Saturday, as he and Lance Gatlin split the track’s twin Late Model Stock features.

Gatlin and Ryan Stiltner battled from the drop of the green flag in the first feature, with Hale and Kres VanDyke in tow. The two battled side-by-side for the top spot until Gatlin cleared Stiltner the following lap.

The lone yellow flag of the race waved on lap 19 for a spin in turn three. Stiltner would take the lead on the restart with Gatlin under fire from Hale and VanDyke. Hale would dive to the inside of Stiltner with 10 laps remaining and drove into the lead. Hale would lead the remaining laps to capture the win.

“It feels good to win another one this week,” said Hale after his second win in two weeks. “We had a pretty good run last night (at Kingsport Speedway) and all day today until the second race. We lost forward bite in the second race.

“Have to thank the crew for all their help and all the fans for coming out.”

Michael Kidd and Adam Gray inherited the front row for the second Late Model Stock race after six position inversion. Gray took off with the lead at the drop of the green flag. Gray’s car would slide up the banking on lap 5, allowing Kidd to pass for the lead.

A spin in turns three and four by Greg Bohannon, Jr. and Phil Harris would bring out the only yellow flag on lap 14. Back under green, Kidd returned to the lead, with VanDyke charging into second place. Contact between Kidd and VanDyke as the two raced for the top spot would allow Gatlin to take over the lead on lap 27.

Gatlin held the lead to win the race with VanDyke and Kidd tangling over second place on the final lap.

“Hat’s off to the entire crew,” Gatlin said after his second win of the season. “Just (had) a great car.”

“We’ve been fighting a miss all night [but] I was somehow able to make it happen,” Gatlin added. “I really, really enjoyed this win.”

Jared Broadbent worked his way to the lead on the first lap of the Modified Street feature. Broadbent would overcome a late-race charge from Sam Hurd to take the victory. Broadbent’s margin of victory was a mere 0.09 of a second.

Jay Swecker took the lead using the outside lane to open up the Pure 4 feature. Billy Ketron would take the lead from Swecker on lap 8. Ketron would drive on for his second win of the season over John Ketron and Jason Ketron.

Billy Duty would take the lead on the opening lap of the Mod 4 feature before the caution waved on lap 2. On the restart, contact between Duty, Kirby Gobble and Rocky Yates would send Yates into the outside wall and bringing out the caution again.

Brown would take the lead on the restart and never give up for his second win of the season.

Nasty Jones jumped to an early lead in the Pure Street feature but was overtaken by Brad Ball on lap 4. Ball would claim the win with Tunnell and Jones completing the top three.

William Hale took the win in the Rookie Pure 4 race, adding to his championship points lead with his sixth of the season.

Lonsome Pine Raceway will be off this weekend for the fall NASCAR Bristol weekend. Racing returns to “The Pine” on Saturday, August 28. For more information, visit ThePineRaceway.com.
