Chris Madden made it back-to-back wins on the O'Reilly Summer Nationals
tour with his win at Cherokee Speedway on Tuesday night July 17th.

Eddie Carrier, Jr. (28) battles with Benji Cole (121) for fourth spot
at Cherokee before the West Va. driver settled for fifth.

Third place finisher Dennis "Rambo" Franklin (30) blasts past
a disabled Randy Weaver (116) early in the going at Cherokee.

On one of three attempts to start the feature, Chris Madden (44) and
Jonathan Davenport (75) became entangled causing minor body damage to
each, but it was nothing to hinder either as they came to the checkers
in the same order.

G. R. Smith's night ended early and abruptly after contact with the
concrete in turn one and subsequent contact with other cars in the early-race
melee.

Ricky Weeks drove a steady race to pick up a sixth place finish at Cherokee.

Georgia's Tony Knowles (66) works under Pennsylvania's Brian Booze on
his way to a seventh place finish in round two of the Southern Nationals
at Cherokee.
