What won the race: Leading flag-to-flag, Brian Rickman of Columbus, Miss., won Saturday's fog-shortened Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series race, collecting his second tour victory of the season and fifth of his career. Rickman outran David Breazeale and Chad Thrash in a race stopped at lap 40 of the scheduled 50 because of dense fog. Rickman pocketed $2,500.

Key notes: Rickman took the lead at the start and was never headed. ... David Breazeale took the lead on the first start attempt, but a caution for a spinning car negated the initial start. ... ECM (Eric Cates Memorial) Speedway, formerly, Arkadelphia Speedway, hosted its first-ever MSCCS event and the only race the Mississippi-based tour will hold in Alabama in ’17. ...
