Saturday night at the Fulton Speedway there were two big winners in the Tracey Road Equipment DIRTcar Modifieds. First was Chad Phelps. Phelps battled in the top-five all race long in the 35-Lap feature that had the winner in doubt until the checkers. The second winner of the night was Billy Decker. In his heat race he took a wild ride that had his car at least 15 feet in the air, landing hard on the front and then ending up on his roof. He pulled out his back-up car and brought home a second place finish on a broken left-rear shock.
