I got there and we was trying to be patient, I was on soft tires, so I was trying to take care of it. (We) had that one lapped car make a bobble and I was just in the right place at the right time, got to the lead and got the win.”NewVisionCustomShirts.com Pole Sitter and Friday night’s winner, Dillon McCowan led the first circuit before fellow front-row starter Kyle Beard took control on lap 2.
