Cole Rouse wins the champion in a race where his #51 ends up on its side
in Turn 1 after a wild wreck!

The championship comes down to a final race shootout between Cole Rouse
and Brandon Setzer with Rouse coming in leading by just eight points and
both qualifying inside the top-3 positions. Setzer led the opening laps
from the pole before Christian Eckes passed him on the first restary but
the title fight ends early. Setzer was running second right on Eckes
tail when he lost it and smacked the wall hard enough to spin #6, ending
his night and effectively handing Rouse the title. Rouse didn't last
much longer as and Eckes crashed together while running in the top-5 a
few laps later, Rouse's #51 got pinched on the outside and ended up
sliding on its left side against the wall and the fence before coming to
rest on its driver's side. The night was over early but he got the
championship before he exited the race. Rouse ended up defeating Setzer
by eight points for the crown, the same margin he came in with.

(Minor stat change: The 80 laps listed as led by Cole Rouse belong to
Christian Eckes [one position beneath him])

Jake Crum was HYPER aggressive in this one, forcing both championship
leader Cole Rouse and later race leader Christian Eckes out of his way
with the front bumper of his Toyota backed by a vaping company early in
the race. Later Crum straight up spun Stephen Nasse to take the lead.
The final lap saw Crum pass Matt Craig for the lead cleanly but Craig
put the bumper to Crum in turn 4; Crum went in the wall and lost a bunch
of spots while Nasse dove to the inside in turn 4 to pass both Crum and
Craig in one fell swoop to swipe the victory. This was Nasse's only CARS
Super Late Model Tour win of the year.

Jared Fryar spun just after the start of this race to bring out the
first caution but rallied back to lead with just three laps to go...but
crash out in turn 4 when he and Zane Smith got together as Smith passed
him low; a bump that ended with Fryar's #14 going backward into the wall
and out of the race.

Number Change- Tate Fogelman ran a #00 instead of #8 (almost certainly
the same car he drove in the throwback race earlier this season)

Jeff Batten got his car up on two wheels late when he got into Fogelman
and it propelled him into the frontstretch wall. Unlike Rouse his car
thankfully came back down on all fours.
