A great night for racing!

North Georgia Speedway, hosted the Top dog 50 last night August 4^th and what a show it was, with 3 classes racing for big money it brought out the heavy hitters.

After a few heats and qualifying where Ray cook set fast time in the Supers, and Greg Martin set fast time in limited the features fired up s the topless limited late models took the track.

Greg Martin looked very strong early as he took the point and seems to be pulling away, but as the laps passed he started dropping back, where Lamar Scoggins was chasing, in the 32, but one of the best races of the night was for 4^th and 5^th, with Shannon Bearden and Todd Hernandez putting on a show as they worked their way to the front from mid pack. Fast time setter and pole sitter Greg Martin wound up 7^th but at the checkered it was all Lamar Scoggins, with John Owenby hot on his heals.

Next out was the Supers with Ronnine Johnson starting deep in the field, but at the front it was Ray Cook and Dale Mcdowell sitting on the front row, and when the green dropped it was all the 17M of McDowell as he set sail never looking back, but if he would of looked back he would of seen some awesome racing as Ronnie Johnson came from deep in the field to run 2^nd, and the 53 of Ray Cook holding off RJ, the 22 of Millican Thomas was a rock solid 4^th but Randy Weaver in the “white” 99 of Derek Ellis was charging too. At the line it was the 17M of McDowell, the 5 of Ronnie Johnson, and the 53 of Ray Cook.

The mod hobby race proved to be a real exciting race as well. With Larry Higgins who was a heavy Favorite found it was hard to catch the 11 of Mark Bishop as Bishop took the lead and never looked back, but the 66 of Jordan Rodabaugh was coming, and coming in a hurry, but he ran out of laps and at the line it was Mark bishop taking the win with the 66 of Rodabaugh 2^nd and Higgins 3^rd, and Randy Walston 4^th.All and all it was a great night of racin and hope to see everyone atthe track in 2 weeks!
