As we continue to watch the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series championship battle it was a big weekend for Mike Looney, who over the last couple of weekends had struggled in appearances at Kingsport Speedway and Southern National Motorsports Park, but returning home to Motor Mile Speedway he gained a lot of valuable points on points leader Peyton Sellers. Looney won both races over fellow National title contender Philip Morris.
Sellers for his part finished second in a green, white, checkered finish at South Boston Speedway behind Lee Pulliam, who has won the last five races in a row there.
