Reigning NASCAR Super Late Models Bullring champion Justin Johnson is back atop his division's points standings after a victory at Back to School Night on Saturday.
Johnson, a 52-time winner at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway short track, held off six-time track champion Scott Gafforini in the evening's 50-lap feature and now holds a 201-198 lead over Peyton Saxton in the latest standings. Stan Mullis is third with 196 points, while Gafforini is fourth at 169.
Doug Hamm's victory in the NASCAR Grand American Modifieds race helped him shave a point off Aaron McMorran's points lead, and McMorran holds a 144-140 advantage heading into that class' final points race on College Night on Sept. 9. The track's other eight divisional titles will be determined on Championship Night on Oct. 7.
McMorran also lost a bit of ground in the NASCAR Bombers points standings after Sam and Kyle Jacks each picked up wins on Saturday night, but he still holds a 230-202 lead over Sam, the reigning class champion. Kyle Jacks is third with 176 points.
James Brazzeal is the new Skid Plate Cars points leader after Back to School Night and leads Robert Smotherman 85-76 in that division. Tyler Fabozzi won the USLCI Legends race to widen his lead over Michael Todd Glazier to 235-191, and Ron Reed's USLCI Thunder Cars victory helped him push his advantage over Doug Germano to 194-147 in that class.
Camden Larsen (USLCI Bandolero Outlaws) and Braden Connor (USLCI Bandolero Bandits) also widened their divisional leads, while Court Connell continues to lead the NASCAR Super Stocks standings, 167-149 over Johnny Spilotro.
