QUINCY, Ill. (Aug. 11) — Bobby Pierce of Oakwood, Ill., earned $2,000 Sunday at Quincy Raceway for a 40-lap victory on the Sunoco American Late Model Series, his first feature win at the third-mile oval.

The pole-starting Pierce led all the way, fighting off an early challenge from Denny Woodworth of Mendon, Ill., and keeping Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., in check the rest of the way for the victory. | Slideshow

Sheppard, winner of last week’s regular-season feature at Quincy, settled for second with Jason Perry of Payson, Ill., in third. Woodworth was fourth and hometown driver Rickey Frankel rounded out the top five in the 17-car field.
