Saturday, September 19th marked the 2nd to last event of the year at Colorado National Speedway. It was the 35th annual Snap-On Tools challenge cup. Over one hundred drivers in 6 different division showed up. Modified Coupes, Super Modified, Figure 8s, Legends and Super Stocks hit the track for their last night of the 2009 season.

All of the ERA super mod guys delivered what was by far, one of their best races of the year at CNS. #11 Nick Haygood started dead last and spent the first 5 laps charging through the field to take 2nd behind #40 Harry Stone. Things changed for the top dogs when Paco Moralles’ #14 supermodified blew up. The field lined back up for a single file restart and it was a safe bet that Haygood would take over the lead. This was not the case. Stone took off on the restart, regaining his massive lead in an instant. With his eyes set on another win, Haygood steadily reeled in Harry Stone until the very last moment, finally passing him AT THE FINISH LINE for the win by about 6 inches. Haygood won the race, but Rich Castor Jr took 3rd place along with the season championship! Congrats to our winners Nick Haygood and Rich Castor Jr!

Official Finish:
1 #11 NICK HAYGOOD, 2 #40 HARRY STONE, 3 #2 RICH CASTOR J.R., 4 #8 LARRY LAPOINT, 5 #02 JOHNNY PICKARD, 6 #3 HJ EVANS, 7 #22 IRA CASTOR, 8 #51 JOE PRISELAC, 9 #15 JOSHUA LEWIS, 10 #29 MOORE CRAIG, 11 #26 BRIAN PACHECO, 12 #88 KEVIN DAY, 13 #52 SCOTT DECENICK, 14 #14 JOE GALLEGOS
