Kenny Compton Jr wins 6th annual Carolina Clash Bash; Franklin clinches 2011 Championship title

by Marion Limbaugh
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (October 15) - Kenny Compton Jr led flag to flag Saturday night at Fayetteville Motor Speedway to take his 2nd Carolina Clash victory of the season. Starting from the pole position, Compton never looked back as he went on to claim the 6th Annual Carolina Clash Bash and round 6 of the JE Pistons Roush/Yates "Chase for the Championship". In victory lane Compton stated "After last weekend I knew the only thing I could do this weekend is go all out and try to get the win. It's a great way to end the season." Compton came into Fayetteville 45 points behind Dennis Franklin. Although Compton took the win, Rambo brought home a 4th place finish which was enough to give him the 2011 Carolina Clash Championship.

Compton set fast time in qualifying and at the drop of the green flag launched out to the lead with Luke Roffers dropping into the runner up spot. By lap 3 Scott Autry charged up to second where he maintained steady pressure on race leader Compton. Compton was able to hold Autry at bay en-route to the win. Roffers held off hard charging Jeff Smith and Dennis Franklin to finish in the third spot. With the 3rd place run Roffers was able to regain 3rd spot in Championship points.

Dustin Mitchell Qualified 4th and ran in the top 5 for the entire race. Mitchell held on to 4th until lap 31 when Dennis Franklin moved by him to take 4th relinquishing Mitchell to a 5th place finish. Mike Gault moved up to finish in 6th. Jeff Smith lost handling on his car in the last couple of laps and dropped back to 7th. Johnny Stovall finished 8th, Ricky Weeks 9th, and Scott Shirey rounded out the top ten.

Dennis "Rambo" Franklin took the Carolina Clash Championship for the 2nd year in a row. He now has the title as the 2011 Carolina Clash Champion and will receive the $10,000 payoff at the 2011 Carolina Clash banquet. Rambo ended the season with 2 Carolina Clash victories, 11 top 5's, and 15 top 10's. Rambo's worst finish for the season was a 12th place finish at Fayetteville back in April. Rambo ended the season with an average finish of 5.117. During the 6 JE Pistons Roush/Yates Performance Parts Chase races, Rambo had a 4.33 average finish. The Carolina Clash banquet is scheduled for January 28, at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Country club.

In the Klotz Lubricants ROY race, Travis Yow picked up the 2011 Roy of the Year title in his first full season in a Super Late Model. Yow also finished 8th in the "JE Pistons Roush/Yates Chase for the Championship."
