Josh Berry and Ryan Millington each made trips to victory lane in Late Model action Saturday night at Hickory Motor Speedway in Newton, North Carolina.
Berry and Millington split a pair of 40 lap Late Model features, with Berry winning the first and Millington scoring the win in the second.
In the first feature, Berry started from the pole with Tommy Lemons, Jr. alongside. On the drop of the green flag, Berry would move to the lead, while the field jockeyed for position behind him.
Berry would lead from start to finish to score the victory. Lemons, Jr. came home in second, with Justin Johnson in third, Millington in fourth and Marietta, Georgia’s Cody Haskins in fifth.
In the second Late Model feature, a ten car inversion from the first race’s finishing outder put Colby Howard on the pole with Ty Gibbs on the outside. Gibbs would move out to the early lead, building up a three second advantage while a fight for position went on behind him.
With 10 laps to go, Ryan Millington began working to close on Gibbs, and with five laps to go, the pair was racing side-by-side. Millington would finally take the lead, holding Gibbs off to take the win. Berry, Lemons, Jr. and Haskins rounded out the top five.
In other action, Darren Dickinson took the early lead in the Renegades feature, and went on to score the victory, with Kyle DiVanna finishing in second, followed by Ben Campbell in third, David Hasson in fourth and Justin Austin in fifth.
With ten laps to go in the Paramount Group Limited Late Model feature, Alex Reece came away with the lead after battling side-by-side for several laps with Jeremy Pelfrey, and went on to score the victory. Pat Rachels finished third, with Travis Byrd in fourth and Monty Cox in fifth.
Cody DeMarmels and Mark Whitten battled side-by-side for several laps in the Street Stocks feature, with DeMarmels finally taking the lead and the win. Whitten, Kevin Eby, Marshall Sutton and Trey Buff rounded out the top five.
Allen Huffman scored the win in the One Design Super Truck feature, with Tyler Dayton in second, Sheflon Clay in third, Joey Shuryan in fourth and Charlie Neill in fifth.
