BUSTI, N.Y. (July 16) — Polesitter Dave Hess Jr. of Waterford, Pa., led all the way Saturday at Stateline Speedway for his second Northern Tier United Late Model Series victory of the season at the track and third victory in four ULMS starts overall. Never seriously challenged in a race slowed by several cautions, Hess earned $4,000.

Series points leader Mike Knight of Ripley, N.Y., finished second followed by Doug Eck of Corry, Pa. Dutch Davies and Chad Valone, both of Warren, Pa., rounded out the top five. Valone ran as high as third before slipping back in the second half of the race.
