 Birch Run, Michigan (Friday, June 26, 2009): Finally to close out the night, the eighth feature of the evening was for the Checkered Flag Promotions Figure 8s division. Gerry Persails Jr., started on the pole but was quickly overtaken by John Hitsman.
Ray Derminer also drove by Persails Jr., and challenged Hitsman for the top spot.Hitsman, a veteran of many seasons of Figure 8s racing at Dixie was determined to win and the Millington, Michigan driver in his Hitsman Motorsports Chevrolet held off Derminer to win his first feature in four seasons!
Derminer was second over Persails Jr., as Mike Wines, Troy Shinabarger, Ed Doutre Jr., Ricky Dinius Jr., Ricky Dinius Sr., and Tony Williams finished off the field. The Figure 8s don't Qualify or run Heat Races as they draw for their starting position in the Feature.
