Joe Martin picked up the check at Stateline's Bill Law Memorial.
What won the race: After enduring a lengthy weather delay and ensuing track prep, polesitter Joe Martin of Mayport, Pa., won Saturday's Bill Law Memorial feature at Stateline Speedway, topping the RUSH Crate Late Model Series field for $3,000.
Quotable: "I was back there eating hot dogs. I could not believe when I walked up to the track, how these guys had it prepped," Martin said. "I knew we weren't very far, but I knew we had changes to make. We were scrambling back there, but I'd say we made the right changes. The adjustment we made and the driver showed up tonight, I caused us a lot of work last night, and just getting out front and getting comfortable, getting driver confidence."
Key notes: Jason Genco of Jamestown, N.Y., and Chub Frank of Bear Lake, Pa., completed the podium, finishing second and third. ... After earning fast qualifier honors and winning the first heat race, John Waters of Whitesville, N.Y., finished fourth. ...
