Late Model star Mason Zeigler jumped into an Emod to participate in the Troutman memorial fallfest weekend at Bedford and came away with a big win Friday night. For Zeigler, it was his second big Bedford win in a row as he was also the victor in the Late Model Labor Day 55 in the track’s previous program. The win in the 30 lapper was worth $4000 for the happy winner. In the companion event, Rick Potter emerged from an early race dogfight to score the 20 lap Semi Late victory.

Pre race favorites Ethan Dodson and Kyle Strickler led the 25 cars to the green flag and it was Dodson with the early lead.
