What won the race: Eighth-starting Chad Holladay of Muscatine, Iowa, won his second Deery Brothers Summer Series victory in three races Saturday by capturing La Salle Speedway's Illinois Valley Showdown. Holladay, who went from fifth to first on a late restart, earned $2,000 for his third career victory on the IMCA tour, which visited La Salle for the first time.

Quotable: “I definitely did not want to see that last caution. I knew Cayden (Carter) was right there,” winner Chad Holladay said. “He had (won) a really good modified race right before but I was able to hold on and win by about a car length.”
