Fountain City, WI - Chad Mahder visited Mueller's Sales & Service Victory Lane at Mississippi Thunder Speedway for the first time in his DiscountShopTowels.com Dirt Kings Late Model Tour career and was crowned King of the $5,000-to-win Rumble by the River 40 presented by HURCO and Stone Machinery. Mahder finished second in his heat race and participated in the re-draw, earning the outside pole for the A-Main. Kyle Raddant won his heat race and started on the pole for the Rumble by River 40. Raddant and Mahder led the field to the green flag, with Mahder and Raddant battling into turn one. Mahder had the advantage as they came out of turn two. Mahder paced the field until caution came out after the completion of lap 27.

Before the caution, Dustin Sorensen was in pursuit of Mahder as they worked through the tail end of the field. Sorensen's night ended with the caution as his motor expired. With just 13 laps to go, Mahder led Gunner Frank, Taylor Scheffler, James Giossi and Jake Timm to the green flag. Scheffler raced to the inside of Frank in turn two and made contact and slowed down the progress for Giossi and Timm as Jimmy Mars ascended to second spot. Mahder continued to lead the field with Mars in pursuit of the lead. Mahder was beginning to reach the tail end of the field with just two laps to go. On the white flag lap, Madher held off Mars, who tried to make a run on the inside, and Mahder led all 40-laps of the Rumble by the River 40. Mars finished second, followed by Nick Anvelink, Timm, and Giossi.

With his sixth place finish, Raddant earned a $50 bonus from Attorney Matthew Kirkpatrick from Kirkpatrick Law Office in memory of Aaron Bennett and Brett Swedberg earned a $50 bonus for finishing seventh in memory of Diamond Jim Letizia.
