CROSSVILLE, Tenn. — After four straight years of victories at Crossville Speedway, you can officially hand over the keys to Brandon Overton.

The Evans, Ga., driver led start-to-finish on Thursday night during round 10 of the Schaeffer’s Oil Southern Nationals Series presented by Sunoco Race Fuels as he claimed the $3,500 payday. Overton has now won the last four years at Crossville while driving for four different car owners.

Thursday’s win at Crossville was Overton’s 19th career tour victory while picking up his sixth victory of the season while driving for Wells and Sons Motorsports.

Overton would take the lead at the start of the event, while Donald McIntosh, Ross Bailes, Cory Hedgecock, and Chris Madden would give chase.

The front five would remain the same as the first caution flag of the event waved on lap four for Craig Greer slowing in turn three and Dalton Polston would also stop on the front-chute with engine issues.

The restart would see Hedgecock take the second position from McIntosh, with Madden going third, followed by McIntosh and Bailes. Hedgecock and Madden would battle for the second position, while Bailes would work past McIntosh. Jensen Ford would draw the next caution flag on lap twelve after he would stop at the top side of turn four.

The restart saw Overton remain on the point, while Bailes and Madden would work their way past Hedgecock after an entertaining battle for the runner-up slot.

With Overton maintaining a comfortable lead, Bailes and Madden would begin to battle for the second position and the bad luck bug would strike Bailes once again as he and Madden would make contact in turn three, resulting in Bailes spinning his entry and drawing the caution flag on lap 17.

The next restart would see Overton lead Hedgecock and Madden, while McIntosh and Pearson Lee Williams now running fourth and fifth. Bailes would slow on the track on lap nineteen to draw the next caution and would duck into the work area and would return to action.

This restart would see Madden get shuffled back to fifth, but he would quickly make his way back toward the front and would get to third behind Hedgecock as the last caution appeared on lap 26 for Jadon Frame’s machine slowing in turn three.

The final restart of the race would see Overton motor away once again, while Madden would get around Hedgecock with six laps remaining and would close a bit in the final few circuits, but Overton would drive to the victory, with Madden settling for runner-up honors, while Hedgecock would complete the podium finishers in third. McIntosh and Tyler Millwood would complete the top five.

The finish:

Brandon Overton, Chris Madden, Cory Hedgecock, Donald McIntosh, Tyler Millwood, Ross Bailes, Brett Wyatt, Riley Hickman, Pearson Lee Williams, Jake Knowles, David Payne, Jadon Frame, Kenny Cobble, Jensen Ford, Logan Roberson, Heath Hindman, Dalton Polston, Craig Greer.
