Tony StewartTony Stewart held off teammate Mike Fedorcak over the final 25 laps to capture Saturday’s USAC midget feature, capping the Rumble in Fort Wayne at the Memorial Coliseum Expo Center.

The two-time NASCAR champion won on the one-sixteenth-mile indoor track for the fifth time in eight races over the past four seasons. After posting the fastest qualifying time and winning his heat race, Stewart sliced through the feature field, moving from his eighth starting position to fifth by lap four and into second place on lap nine.

Stewart took the lead with an inside move on Geoff Kaiser in the first turn on lap 17 and beat Fedorcak by nearly a straightaway in the 60-lap race. Dave Darland was third, followed by Derek Bischak.
