SOUTH BOSTON, Va. – It was a weekend full of events at South Boston Speedway, headlined by the Camping World SRX main event on Saturday night. The 100 lap event featured 5 NASCAR drivers that included Tony Stewart. It also included IndyCar/Sports Car drivers Marco Andretti and Helio Castroneves just to name a few. Danville’s Peyton Sellers was the lone local driver in the race.

It proved to be a physical battle Saturday night. Stewart, who started the main event in second place, went back and forth with Marco Andretti and Greg Biffle. While Michael Waltrip and Ryan Hunter-Reay had their own battle play out throughout the race that finally came to a head during a late caution when Hunter-Reay eventually ended Waltrip’s night early with subsequent contact.
