5waltherssfeature626Birch Run, Michigan (Friday, June 26, 2009): In the regularly scheduled feature, Josh Hahn, Rob Sullivan, and Jason Hitsman exchanged the lead four times over the first five laps before 2007 Track Champion, Mike Walther picked off all three drivers and took the lead for himself on lap six.

Walther brought Michigan Motorsports Hall of Fame driver, Jay Woolworth and the battle was on.
The 72-year-old Woolworth tried every trick he possessed in his 50 plus years of racing experience, but Walther was up to the task and the Montrose, Michigan veteran in his Savoy Bar and Grill Chevrolet drove to victory lane after winning his first feature of the year.

Woolworth finished a season high second while Hitsman, Ed Newman Jr., Maverick Morrow, Hahn, Dewey Romans Jr., Al Boitel Jr., Jake Caverly, and Sullivan were the top 10.

Morrow was the fast qualifier for the first time this season with a 16.546 while Caverly and Woolworth won heat races.
