YAKIMA -- Even Brian Pepper's father couldn't slow him down Saturday in the 30-lap Super Stocks race at Yakima Speedway.

Fresh off setting a new track record in qualifying with a time of 22.178 seconds, Brian Pepper took the lead from Rich Peters on lap 23 and led from there. Mike Pepper secured second behind his son, and Peters finished third but was disqualified after failing a post-race inspection. Tony Huffines moved up to the third slot because of the DQ.

In other racing: Brian Moser won Hobby Sportsman; Jacob Little took Youth Hornets; A.J. Rose was first in Hornets; and Rich Strimska crossed the line up front in Bump to Pass.
