Billy Decker Wins Fulton 200 Presented By SUNY Canton On Last Lap Pass
Decker dominated the race till lap 161 when Jimmy Phelps blasted by Decker and seemed headed for victory lane. A late caution with a handful of laps left was Phelps undoing. On the final lap Decker was able to wrestle the lead back and be the first under the checkers. The win was worth $20,000 plus for Decker as he collected the halfway point $1,000 from Bicknell Racing Products plus lap money.
