WILLIAMSTON, SC - R.A. Brown wrestled the lead away from Randy Porter around lap 30 of Friday night's Big O Dodge 100 Late Model Stock race at Anderson Motor Speedway in Williamston, SC.<br /> <br /> Brown then had to work hard over the closing laps to hold of NASCAR Whelen All American Series Division points leader Anthony Anders to score the win in the 5th annual Rupert Porter Memorial Shrine Race.<br /> <br /> For Brown, it's the second straight victory in the race, held in honor track builder and owner Rupert Porter, who passed away in 2009. Brown turned in the fastest time in qualifying, but a die roll left him starting in fifth position.<br /> <br /> Anders held on to finish in second after charging his way through the field from the 15th starting position.<br /> <br /> Randy Porter led the opening laps of the event, but eventually settled for third place.
