ashville, TN (July 21, 2008) – Two-time CRA Super Series Champion Scott Hantz continued his hot streak in getting his fourth win of the season in the All American 150 at the Music City Motorplex at the Fairgrounds in Nashville, Tennessee. Hantz got to claim his first ever Copley Guitar Trophy on a very hot July Sunday afternoon were the heat index was over 110 on pit road, but there was plenty of hot racing action on the track.

"Roll your windows up and turn on your heater on all the way up going down the road and that is how hot it was in the car," commented Hantz.  "This is the first time I have finished in the Top Ten at Nashville. This is great to finally win a race here!"

With the victory Hantz extended his series points lead as he goes for a series record third Championship. With the victory Hantz moves into a tie with Brian Ross as the series all time victory leader with 22 wins. Ross is also tied with Hantz with two series Championships.

Veteran Louisville, Kentucky racer Keith Gardner took the early lead from his pole starting position and led the first 42 laps before slipping up a little allowing Boris Jurkovic to power by on the inside to take the lead on lap 44. Jurkovic held the lead until lap 64 when he suddenly slowed giving the lead to Florida native Justin Drawdy. Jurkovic would have to pit because of overheating and eventually dropped out of the event.

Drawdy and series veteran Rick Turner put on a show racing side by side for the lead several laps before Turner got sideways, made a great save, but lost second place to a hardcharging Hantz who had worked his way through the field from his 18^th place starting position. Hantz also raced several laps side by side with Drawdy, before finally getting underneath and making the pass on lap 96. Hantz would pull away at the end to get the victory over Florida’s Ryan Crane who came from 14^th place and had to work for several laps to get second away from Turner who would eventually finish third. Each of the top three finishers now has a guaranteed starting spot in the November 2^nd CRA Super Series Adam Petty Memorial All American 400 event in Nashville.
