Heath Hindman earned $4,000 for his first career Iron-Man triumph.
What won the race: Polesitter Heath Hindman of Signal Mountain, Tenn., picked up a $4,000 victory in the Schaeffer's Iron Man Series event at I-75 Raceway. Hindman crossed the finish line 0.632 seconds ahead of third-starting Ray Cook of Brasstown, N.C.
Quotable: “I hate to complain and say this, because I hear people do it, but the carburetor (was) stumbling,” said Hindman. “I’m sure gassing it all through the corner just trying to keep it running and keep it turned. You know it, just … meant to be.”
Key notes: The victory was Hindman's first career Schaeffer's Iron Man Series victory. ... Eighteen of the 22 starters finished the race, with 17 completing 40 laps. ... The series wrapped up its Volunteer State doubleheader. ... Josh Rice of Verona, Ky., who won Friday at Wartburg, retired on lap 22.
On the move: James Rice of Verona, Ky., started 15th and finished sixth.
Winner's sponsors: Hindman’s Coulter Race Car is powered by a Chris Oliver Race Engine and carries sponsorship from Andy Dill Trucking and Playtime Amusement.
