For the second time in his career, hometown hero Brenden "Butterbean" Queen drove to the victory in the Hampton Heat 200, the biggest race of the season at Hampton, Virginia's Langley Speedway. Queen drove away from second-place finisher Connor Hall to take the win, lapping all the way up to sixth in the process. Queen beat Hall to the win by 0.887-second and takes over the top spot in the Virginia Triple Crown standings heading into the final race, the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 at Martinsville Speedway in September.

Winning Quote From Langley Speedway

"This is big. Packed house tonight. Lot of 'Bean fans here. It's just special to win in front of your home town. We wanted the CARS Tour race bad and came up one spot short. This week we got it flip-flopped on our positions with the 77 (Connor Hall). This one is huge. I'm just blessed to be having this opportunity. The last couple of years have been a dream. I don't take anything away from my family deal, because they got me to this point. Now I'm with Lee Pulliam and it's time to do this kind of stuff. It's awesome. We just won the dang Hampton Heat, man. For the second time. This is a big damn deal." - Brenden "Butterbean" Queen
