Kevin Hamlin records his first NASCAR Northwest Tour victory, and only
one of 1999, as the series makes its third and final trip to Douglas
County Speedway.

Darren Shaw won the pole (6-car invert)

Kevin Hamlin, just over a week away from his 20th birthday, became the
youngest winner in series history at the time with the victory.

Ron Eaton barely led 30 green-flag laps, but in his time out front he
had put all but the top five cars a lap down before he blew his engine.
By comparison, 12 cars finished the race on the lead lap in this
(pre-lucky dog era) race, proving just how torrid Eaton's pace had been.
Wilbur Bruce led the most laps on the day and retook the lead when Eaton
dropped out, pulling away until a flat tire forced him to pit with 20 to
go. Kevin Hamlin assumed the lead with Jim Walker hot on his tail.
Hamlin was never able to pull very far away from Walker until the last
lap, at which point another car lost an engine and starting spewing oil
that caused Walker to go for a spin.
