FORT WORTH, Texas — Chelby Hinton led all 25 laps to win Engler Machine and Tool Preliminary Night One of the Lil’ Texas Micro Mania KKM Challenge with the POWRi Outlaw Micro League at Texas Motor Speedway. High-point qualifier Darren Brown shared the front row with Hinton, with Hinton taking the early lead as Frank Flud, Colby Sokol, Ryan Winter, Sheldon Creed, Chase Spicola, Cameron Paul, Jett Hays, Brecken Reese and Kyle Busch all battled inside the early contending top 10. Bunching the field back together for a lap-13 restart would witness Hinton maintain the front of the field while holding off the steady-and-speedy charges of Flud with Sokol running third as Creed and Hays continually swapped spots within the top five.
