 On Saturday morning Chris Ferguson returned to Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, Ohio) for the rescheduled World 100. In a stout field of 78 Super Late Models, Ferguson edged his way into the $10,000-to-win preliminary feature with the 4th and final transfer spot in his heat. Starting in 13th, Chris dropped six spots in the 25-lapper to place 19th.
Later Saturday evening, Ferguson came up one spot short of a transfer position in his heat race with a 4th place finish. Transferring into the B-Main for another shot at the $51,000-to-win finale, Chris was running in 2nd when another car made contact with him spinning them both out. He salvaged a 13th place outing in the 20-lap consolation event.
