Mitchell, a two-time and reigning series champion, was relegated to a 14th-place finish. ... Dennis Franklin of Gaffney, S.C., retired in 13th with a fuel leak during the lap-17 caution. ... A race of attrition, seven drivers completed all 40 laps. … Miller's victory gives the series four winners in seven series events. … Friday marked the first time the Ultimate Southeast Series visited Fayetteville Motor Speedway this season and the third time in series history. ... The series returns Sept. 26.
