By Doug Watson

Winchester VA- Augusta West Virginia's Gerald Davis became the second different winner of the season with his win in the 20-lap Limited Late Model feature Saturday at Winchester Speedway.
Austin Stover and Gerald Davis shared the front row for the start of the event with Davis booming into the lead on the first lap and would then go on to pace all 20 circuits aboard his Lazer Chassis No.28 to secure the win. "The car was the best it has ever been last night." The happy race winner stated. "We finally got it to where it needs to be just hope we can keep it there. When you get a car to handle good everything seems to work." Wesley Bonebrake was second, 2025 champion Austin Stover took third with Jonathan DeHaven and Mike Franklin completing the top five. Heats went to Stover and Davis.
Coming off two consecutive second place feature finishes, third generation racer Devin Brannon drove to his first win of the season in the 20 lap RUSH Late Model main. Brannon would go on to lead the distance, but it was no easy trip to victory lane. Eventual runner-up Bubby Tharp Jr hounded Brannon for the duration, but would fall short of the win by .670 seconds at the finish. Kristopher Hutton was third, seventh starting Branson Woodward was fourth with Brayden Armel, in a solid effort rounding out the top five. Heats went to Brannon and Armel.
BJ Jenkins scored his second win in the season in the 15 lap Pure Stock contest. Last week's winner and defending track champion Walter Crouch appeared headed to his second consecutive victory until Jenkins made the winning pass on lap-13 to score the win. Crouch wound up second with Allen Brannon, Sam Hoffman, and seventh-starting Trent Holmes trailing at the finish. Heats went to Brady Holmes and Walter Crouch.
Defending track champion Jason Wilkins scored his second win in a row in the 15 lap Hobby Stock feature. Robert Wilson, Larry Smith Jr, Brad Strawderman and Kristopher Kerr rounded out the top five. Heats went to Wilkins and Larry Smith Jr.
