On Sunday, Erks fought through seven rounds of eliminations to win his second race of in as many days after Joe Serena fouled-out by -.003 seconds in the trophy round. The JEGS "Double-up" bonus kicked in at that point and, combined with the $1,800 he won Sunday, Erks pocketed a total of $10,800 this weekend plus contingency postings.

It was a similar story for Super Stock world champion Bertozzi, who first claimed the $6,000 top prize for his class in the JEGS Allstars race when he eliminated fellow world champion Michael Iacono in the final round when Iacono broke out by -.003 seconds.

Bertozzi's $6,000 top prize was then matched by JEGS when he clinched Sunday's race title with a final-round victory over Darren Smith, who also broke out. All told, Bertozzi claimed $14,500 in winnings plus additional contingency postings.
