Kuhn, who leads the USAC Regional Midget Car Series points standings, took
another step toward winning the season-long championship with his third
victory at the 1/5-mile paved oval in 2005. Kuhn overhauled Chris Manifold
on Lap 18 of the 50-lap feature and led the rest of the way in the No. 74
Steve Kuhn Sander Engineering/K&N Filters Beast/Ford ahead of Nick Bohanon,
Travis Young, Joe Liguori and Manifold, who led the opening 17 laps.

MacLeod, who recently turned 16, led flag-to-flag in Thursday’s 50-lap
feature, driving the No. 4 East owned Beast. MacLeod, who became USAC’s
second female Ford Focus feature victor (Stephanie Mockler) at the track,
was trailed by Kevin Studley, Josh Clemons, Nick Hansen and Jimmy Light.

Rain interrupted the USAC Kenyon Midget Car Series feature after 21 laps.
