A $3,000 score for the Phoenix shoe on Saturday night, Johnson’s weekend topped out at $4,500 earned behind the wheel of the Pecon Builders/Steffey Excavating No. 51.
Getting around Ty Mihocko for the lead on Lap 6, Johnson led the remainder of the 30-lap showdown. Into second on Lap 21, Brody Roa had one final shot at the top spot with a green, white, checkered restart but could not deny the No. 51. Swapping second with Ty for a moment, Roa held the spot with Mihocko third. Rolling from 12th, Sterling Cling made fourth, with Dustin Cormany fifth.
Shon Deskins made it to sixth from 14th, followed by James Webster in seventh. Ricky Lewis crossed eighth, Jonah Reynolds ninth, and Wayne Siddle was tenth.
