Donaldson dominated the Eldora Mud Summer Classic events Friday night starting with Heat 1 where he fought his way through DusterLag to take the win. Heat 2 had Donaldson making his way past Patch just in time to lead only the final lap. Patch came back and held off Donaldson to capture the win in Heat 3, leading every lap of the Heat.
After picking up two Heat Win's Donaldson started on pole for the Feature where he continued to dominate - leading all fifty laps and placing everyone a lap down except Patch who finished ten second back in second. Spike picked up the Hard Charger Award to finish third followed by BlackKnight and DusterLag.
Donaldson increases his championship lead from one point to seven over Patch and nineteen over Spike. Three races in one night remain before we crown a champion. NH Autosport holds an eight point lead in the team championship over SpeedSims Racing with Chevrolet leading the manufacturer championship with four wins to Jeep's one.
