What won the race: Fifth-starting Shane DeMey of Denison, Iowa, hugged the low line out of turn four and executed a last-lap pass of race-long leader Tad Pospisil to win Saturday's $1,500 feature at Park Jefferson Speedway. DeMey led only the one lap to secure his first career Repairable Vehicles.com Tri-State Series victory.

Quotable: “Yeah I mean early in the race I didn’t feel like we were that great, I was not driving very good,” DeMey said. “We had that yellow, I kinda thought about it and just made the right choices, I guess and took the chances when we needed to. It’s pretty awesome (getting my first series win), it’s great, I gotta thank Harlan and Sue and Eric and all them guys for letting me drive this thing. It’s been a lot of fun and I think we’re learning a little bit.”

Key notes: Second-starting Pospisil, of Norfolk, Neb., led the first 24 laps before attempting a slider on a lapped car entering turn three and washed up the track, opening the door for DeMey to slip underneath and beat him to the checkers by 0.212 of a second. ... Chad Olsen ran as high as second before finishing third. ... A five-time Tri-State Series winner at Park Jefferson entering Saturday, Justin Zeitner advanced nine positions and finished fourth. ... After winning his consolation, Scott Ward gained 15 spots and finished seventh. ... Series points leader Cole Searing overcame a lap-10 spin and finished eighth. ... A night removed from winning his first Late Model race at Red Cedar Speedway, Chad Olsen's son, Charlie, started 24th and finished 12th. ... Pole-starting Nate Beyenhof failed to lead a lap and spun with Searing on lap 10 while battling him for third; Beyenhof finished 13th. The lap-10 caution became a 30-minute red flag as the infield medical team addressed an emergency in the pits. ... Saturday's feature was slowed by two incidents, including the lengthy red flag and lasted 45 minutes, with 15 competitors completing 25 laps.

On the move: Blair Nothdurft of Renner, S.D., started 17th and finished sixth.
