          The fans were on their feet as the 25-lap South Shore Auto Sales Late Model feature hustled to its conclusion. Phillip Cobb and Jeff Mathews engaged in a doorslamming side by side battle for the lead that saw Cobb edge point leader Mathews, picking up his first win of 2009.

 

          Cobb had started the event in front, but lapped traffic stymied his effort for a wire to wire run. The backmarker forced Cobb to check up, opening a lane for two-time feature winner Josh Peacock. The new leader kept it for one circuit before Cobb hunched back over the wheel to snatch the top spot. He was in command until Mathews came calling and the sparks were flying as these two dueled to the finish. Peacock watched from third with Devin Dixon moving from 18th to fourth at the finish. Ted Erskine, who stayed in the top five for the entire race, was fifth. Cobb revealed that his car had been damaged on Friday night and the crew worked all day to make the East Bay show. Heats were won by Cobb, Jim Coursen and Steve Miller.
