Sheppard Collects Fourth Career Dirt Track World Championship at Portsmouth

Portsmouth, OH (October 17, 2020) - Brandon Sheppard captured the 40th Annual General Tire Dirt Track World Championship - Presented by Optima Batteries on Saturday Night at Portsmouth Raceway Park. Sheppard earned $100,000 for his fourth career win in the crown jewel event sanctioned by the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series. With the win, Sheppard became the third driver in the 40-year history of the event to score back-to-back wins, joining Josh Richards and Scott Bloomquist.

Ricky Thornton Jr. finished in second for his best career finish in the event with Tim McCreadie claiming third at the finish. McCreadie had led the first 23 laps of the 100-lap affair until yielding the top spot to Sheppard, who started 11th. Chris Madden; in his first DTWC start in 14 years; finished in fourth and 22nd-place starter Tyler Erb rounded out the top five drivers at the finish.

McCreadie, who had already clinched second place in the championship point standings, sprinted to the lead at the start of the richest first-place prize money offered in dirt late model racing this year. McCreadie held off challenges from last year's DTWC runner-up Mike Marlar for several laps until Marlar lost the second spot to Sheppard on lap 21.

Sheppard made his move to the lead three laps later taking over the top spot on lap 24. Zack Dohm was on the move taking the second spot on lap 35 and started to challenge Sheppard for the lead. Dohm pulled even with Sheppard a couple of times until lap 75 when Thornton moved into second place. Thornton held the second position until the finish.

In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the fifth time in 2020 the 27-year-old Sheppard withstood some tense caution flags laps to get the win. "I will tell you what, I love this place. As hard as its been all weekend I knew it was going to be around the bottom at the end of the race. I knew when I rolled out there for the race, drive as hard as I could to get to the front as soon as I could. So that was kind of the game plan. We went a little different on tires than we normally do here. We had an early game, but once we got the lead we didn't know what we were going to do."

"Our car was good just like it has been all year long. I think that's 31 wins this year so that's really awesome. During those cautions I had too much time to think about my right rear tire for sure. When I was in lap traffic I tried to pass them one time and I didn't feel good and so I tucked back in behind them. Zack showed me his nose on the outside and when he showed the line a little bit different in one and two, that got me going a little bit better."

Thornton was coming off his first career LOLMDS win at Pittsburgh came home in second. "I honestly don't think the cautions mattered. He [Sheppard] had a really good car. I was going to try and go to the top if I got close enough. On the restarts he would really take off and it took me about 5 or 6 laps to get going. We ran a little hard on tires and I knew on the restarts we wouldn't be as good as those other guys."

McCreadie wound up third in the final rundown. "I gave it my best shot. I was too good too early, and I didn't know where to be on the track. When Sheppard got by me I was just kind of got lost for a few laps and it cost us. On the restarts I just couldn't get a clear track to make a move."

The winner's Mark Richards Racing Rocket Chassis is powered by a Durham Racing Engines and is sponsored by Valvoline, Seubert Calf Ranches, Gunters Honey, Ace Metal Works, Integra Racing Shocks, Sunoco Race Fuels, Sallack Well Services Keyser, and Rocket 1 Pre-Owned Motors.

Completing the top ten were Zack Dohm, Billy Moyer Jr., Boom Briggs, Kyle Bronson, and Jason Feger.

Tim McCreadie Earns the Pole Position for the 40th Annual Dirt Track World Championship

PORTSMOUTH, OH (October 16, 2020) - Tim McCreadie earned the pole starting spot for Saturday's 40th Annual General Tire Dirt Track World Championship - Presented by Optima Batteries. The New York native captured the first heat race after coming from the third starting spot in Friday Night's preliminary action.

McCreadie and Brandon Overton will be on the front row for Saturday's $100,000-to-win season finale for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series.

McCreadie was the overall fast qualifier of the 63 entrants and had to spin the invert wheel, ultimately landing on an invert of three for the six heat races. McCreadie worked his way from the third starting spot to win. He managed to get by polesitter Jimmy Owens in turn two and then battled with fellow Longhorn driver Zack Dohm for the race lead. McCreadie pulled away from Dohm to take the victory in the first heat of the night. Zack Dohm's father, Tim, held off Owens to get the third and final transfer spot.

In heat number two, Chris Ferguson led the entire distance of the 15 lap race. Chris Madden came home in second to earn his first DTWC start since 2006. Darrell Lanigan, the 2003 DTWC victor grabbed the third and final transfer spot.

The third heat went to 3-time DTWC winner Scott Bloomquist. He took the victory over defending DTWC winner, Brandon Sheppard. Brian Shirley charged from his fifth starting spot to get the final transfer position.

The fourth heat saw Brandon Overton recover from a first-lap miscue to win. He got around Billy Moyer Jr. with two laps to go and race leader Steve Casebolt on the final lap to earn the front row starting spot alongside McCreadie. Casebolt finished second followed by Moyer Jr., as both transferred into the DTWC.

The fifth heat saw Ricky Thornton Jr. use the inside route to take the win. Josh Richards followed Thornton Jr. across the finish to take second, Robby Hensley took the final transfer position.

The sixth and final heat race of the night saw Mike Marlar take the win. Marlar led wire-to-wire for the victory in the 15-lap heat. Boom Briggs finished second to advance to Saturday's DTWC, with Jared Landers taking the third and final transfer spot.

Ricky Thornton Jr. Gets First Lucas Oil Series Win at the Pittsburgher

IMPERIAL, PA (October 3, 2020) - Ricky Thornton Jr. picked a great time to get his first career win in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series as he captured the 32nd Annual Pittsburgher 100 on Saturday Night at Pittsburgh's Pennsylvania Motor Speedway.

Moran led the first 16 laps of the race until Richards took over the point. Richards held the lead until Moran regained the lead on lap 36. The first caution of the race waved with 40 laps complete as the previously announced fuel stop would take place. Under the red flag Richards, who was running second, had a tire going down. Richards and several other competitors headed to the hot pit to change tires before the green would come back out again.

Thornton, who celebrated his 30th birthday on September 28, inherited the top spot on lap 82 when the top two drivers in the race, Devin Moran and Tim McCreadie, both headed to the hot pit to change flat tires. Moran had brought out the caution for his flat while leading. McCreadie picked up the race lead but his right front tire was going down forcing him to pit as well before a race restart commenced.

Thornton took advantage of several restarts in the final 18 laps to stretch his lead over the field as he went unchallenged to score the $20,000 victory. With the win Thornton became the 20th different winner this year on the LOLMDS tour. The all-time series record is 22 different winners in one season.

In Lucas Oil Victory Lane, Thornton celebrated his huge victory. "I think we were the only ones going hard on tires. We flipped a coin to determine what we were going to run. During that fuel break Taylon [Center] was looking at everyone else's tires and he said there is no way they were going to make it all 100 laps without having some problems. It all worked out for us."

Richards was seeking his third win in the famed event and came up just short. "Congrats to Ricky on the win. He was so good on the restarts. I'd like to thank my team, the fans, and the sponsors for supporting this Clint Bowyer Racing Team."

Pearson came through the field to take third. "We had a shot on that last restart. It looked like Clanton was having a tire go down. We have been in the top five for the last three races, so that's big for us."

The winner's Todd and Vickie Burns-owned SSI Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and is sponsored by Dyno One, Excel Floor Covering, Sub-Surface of Indiana, Certified Inspection Service Company Inc., West Side Tractor Sales, Swift Springs, Penske Racing Shocks, Slicker Graphics, and Hoker Trucking.

Completing the top ten were Jonathan Davenport, Chris Ferguson, Shane Clanton, Devin Moran, and Tanner English.

After discussions between Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Officials and track owners, the decision was made that it would be in the best interests and safety of all due to the forecasted storms with Hurricane Delta.

The Series looks forward to return visits to both venues in 2021. The next scheduled Lucas Dirt event is the $100,000-to-win, 40th Annual Dirt Track World Championship October 16th - 17th at Portsmouth Raceway Park.

IT’S KING CHRISTIAN IV IN KING OF THE CRATES AT NORTH ALABAMA SPEEDWAY

TUSCUMBIA, AL – After dominating 28 other foes in the territory of North Alabama Speedway, Christian Hanger of Winchester, TN was crowned King Christian IV on Sunday night in the 4th Annual King of the Crates 50 for the Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series in the Hanger Hardwood Rocket.

Hanger cast his #29 sword early and often to lead all 50 laps to earn the crown and the $3,000 top prize. Hanger arrived at the battlefield with a broken race car, but with the help of a fellow competitor, Hanger was able to make repairs in time for hot laps, and then dialed in his machine to dominate the event.

“We had a broken hub on the left rear, and I’ve got to thank Braden Mitchell, who went to his shop to get what we needed to race tonight,” Hanger said. “My crew did a great job to get the car ready to go, and to come out, earn the pole, lead all of the race, and win the race. I have to pass this crown around to all of them to wear.”

The Hohenwald Gang took the second and third spots with Hohenwald, TN drivers Oakley Johns in the Shoals Box and Pallet Special and Tyler Wood in the Johns Farms Special second and third respectively behind Hanger. Jody Knowles of Tyrone, GA finished fourth in the Clayton Signs/Gentry Used Auto Parts Special.

Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series point leader Wil Herrington of Hawkinsville, GA took a step closer to clinching the $10,000 National Championship with a fifth-place finish in the 5m Construction Rocket. The defending race champion, King Jeremy III Shaw of Millport, AL was sixth in the Bud Coley Trucking Special.

Evan Ellis of Plantersville, MS picked up the Fullmoon Graphics “Lucky 7” Award with a seven-place finish in the Ellis Specialty Welding Rocket. Steve Russell of Pontotoc, MS took the eighth spot in the Bud Coley Trucking Special and T.J. Brittain of Center, AL was ninth in the Brittain Hauling Warrior.

Brandon Carpenter of Coldwater, MS rounded out the top ten in the Carpenter Construction Special. Troy Dixon of Dallas, GA finished 17th in the Granite Hauling and Grading Rocket to earn the Cruise With The Champions Rookie of the Race Ward.

In preliminary action, Hanger was the Boyd Built Fabricators Fast Time Award winner with a lap around North Alabama Speedway in 15.746 seconds in Group Qualifying. The two ten-lap KRC Power Steering B-Main winners were Brittain and Herrington.

Hanger took the lead from the pole position at the start of the race followed by Jadon Frame of Decherd, TN in the Denby’s J&J Construction Special, Johns, Oakley Gillespie of Five Points, TN in the White Sky Communication Special, and Shaw. Ben Brocato of Muscle Shoals, AL spun the Valley Metal Fabricators Special in turn four on lap four to bring out the first of two caution flags.

Hanger had Frame, Johns, Gillespie, Shaw, Billy Flannagan Jr. of Tuscumbia, AL in the Alabama Bands, Inc. Warrior, Wood, Herrington, Knowles and Josh Putnam of Florence, AL in the Zippy’s Auto Sales Special doubled up behind him for the Dixie-Style Double-File restart. After the restart, Shaw drove around Gillespie for the fourth spot.

The leaders taught the tail end of the lead lap by lap 15 and began to work their way through in close quarters. Gillespie had the left-front bodywork of his car damaged by contact, and it was trying to roll its way under the left front tire.

The bodywork dangling under Gillespie’s car cut down the left-front tire going into turn three on lap 24 causing Gillespie to spin out of fifth place and bring out the second and final caution flag of the race. First through tenth respectively for the restart were Hanger, Frame, Johns, Shaw, Wood, Herrington, Knowles, Ellis, Putnam, and Brittain.

Hanger pulled away on the restart, but Frame had a mechanical malfunction and did not come up to speed. Shaw got caught behind Frame and dropped to seventh before he could get by. Wood just got by to earn the VP Racing Lubricants Slick Move of the Race Award. Frame pulled to the infield while Johns took over the second spot followed by Wood, Knowles, Herrington, and Putnam.

Hanger caught lapped traffic on lap 29 with a half straightaway lead on Johns. While Johns and Wood closed in on the leader, Hanger was able to keep lapped cars between himself and the Hohenwald Gang. Putnam dropped out of the sixth spot and went to the pits on lap 42.

Hanger was able to keep up his fast pace through lapped traffic during the final laps of the race and took a 1.338 second margin of victory under the checkered flag. Next up for the Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Series will be the non-points $25,000-to-win Powell Family Memorial Race on October 23-24 at All Tech Raceway in Lake City, FL.

The economical Aluminum Head, Steel Block, Chevrolet Performance 604 Circle Track Engine is the engine of choice for the Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series competitors.

COLLINS CLAIMS TALLADEGA SHORT TRACK CRATE RACIN’ USA WIN

EASTABOGA, AL – Tanner Collins of Franklin, GA drove the Newnan Bonding Rocket to his first career Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series win on Saturday night on NASCAR Weekend at Talladega Short Track. Collins took the lead on lap 16 and then pulled away after a restart with five laps to go to collect the $2,500 top prize.

Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series point leader Wil Herrington of Hawkinsville, GA started tenth in the 5m Construction Rocket and finished in the second spot. Cruz Skinner of Oxford, AL kept his title hopes alive with a third-place showing in the Skinner’s Body Shop Rocket.

Jimmy Thomas of Phenix City, AL finished fourth in the Scorpion Race Cars Special and Corey Dunn of Milledgeville, GA led the first 15 laps of the race and took the fifth spot in the Georgia Timber CVR. Dunn was also the Cruise With The Champions Rookie of the Race.

T.J. Brittain of Centre, AL survived a late-race tangle to drive the Brittain Hauling Warrior to a sixth-place finish and Jeremy Shaw of Millport, AL was seventh in the Bud Coley Trucking Special. Christian Hanger of Winchester, TN came back from an early race cut tire to finish eighth in the Hanger Hardwood Rocket.

Jason Lively of Eastaboga, AL finished ninth in the Lively Racing Special and Jody Knowles of Tyrone, GA started 23rd in the Gentry’s Used Auto Parts/Clayton Signs Special and rounded out the top ten to earn the Knowles Race Parts and Bodies Hard Charger of the Race Award from his Cousin Jake Knowles.

In preliminary action, Dunn earned the Boyd Built Fabricators Fast Time Award among the 35 entrants with a lap around Talladega Short Track in 14.810 seconds. The three ten-lap KRC Power Steering B-Main races were won by Ty Ellis of Covington, GA in the Precision Body Works Special, Lively and Brittain.

Dunn took the lead at the start of the 50-lap race followed by Collins, Kyler Heygood of Douglasville, GA in the Heygood Racing Special, Skinner and Thomas. On lap two, Collins, Skinner and Thomas battled three-wide for second in turns one and two. Collins held on to the second spot, with Skinner moving up to third, and Thomas settled into the fourth spot.

The first of five caution flags came out on lap three when Hanger cut down a tire, and the field doubled up for a Dixie-Style Double-File Restart. Doubled up behind Dunn in second through tenth respectively were Collins, Skinner, Heygood, Thomas, Shaw, Herrington, Matt Brocato of Muscle Shoals, AL in the Valley Metal Fabricators Special, Ahnna Parkhurst of Evans, GA in the EZ Go Special, and Lively.

Thomas got by Heygood for the fourth spot on the restart, and Herrington raced up to the fifth spot. Mike Combs of Odenville, AL spun in turn two on lap four to light up the yellow caution bulb for the second time. Dunn had Collins, Skinner, Thomas, Herrington, Brocato, Parkhurst, Brittain, Ellis and Jake Rainey of Hiram, GA in the Harrod Logging Special doubled up behind him for the restart.

The action picked up on lap seven when Thomas passed Skinner for the third spot, and by lap ten, Dunn had opened up a 1.6 second lead over Collins. Herrington dusted off the top shelf of Talladega Short Track and sailed around the outside of Skinner to take the fourth spot on lap 13. By lap 15, Dunn had caught the cars on the tail end of the lead lap, and business picked up.

Tanner chased down the leader and dove under him in turn three on lap 16. Dunn got caught behind the lapped car of Troy Dixon of Dallas, GA in the Granite Hauling and Grading Rocket which let Collins scoot underneath to take the lead coming off the fourth turn.

There was also action behind the battle for the lead on lap 16 when Herrington drove around outside of Thomas for the third spot. Just when Herrington caught Dunn to battle for second on lap 21, the caution came out for a turn four spin by Lee Burdett of Hueytown, AL in the LB Construction GRT.

Herrington made his outside move on the restart to pass Dunn for the second spot, and Skinner got by Thomas to take the fourth spot. Collins took a half straightaway lead over Herrington into lapped traffic on lap 35. By lap 40, Herrington and Skinner were all over Collins.

The leaders avoided disaster on lap 42 when Combs spun the Legacy Environmental Process Rocket in front of the lead trio in turn two. Collins and Herrington slipped by without contact, and Skinner had to dynamite the brakes to keep from getting into Combs. That earned Skinner the VP Racing Lubricants Slick Move of the Race Award.

The final caution flag of the race came out on lap 45 when Brittain and Rainey tangled on the front straightaway while battling for the seventh spot. Crate Racin’ USA officials ticketed Rainey with the caution and Brittain got his spot back for the restart.

A single-file restart had Collins leading Herrington, Skinner, Thomas, Parkhurst, Dunn, Brittain, Shaw, Hanger and Knowles in the top ten. On the restart, Collins pulled away as Parkhurst fell off the pace. Herrington could not gain any ground on Collins, who took a 1.356 margin of victory under the checkered flag.

The next event for the Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series will be on Saturday night at North Alabama Speedway in Tuscumbia, AL for the $3,000-to-win 4th Annual King of the Crates Race, Round 14 of the 2020 season.

NEWSOME RACEWAY PARTS WEEKLY RACING SERIES LATE MODEL SPORTSMAN WEEK 20 PREVIEW

ADAIRSVILLE, GA – The Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Late Model Sportsman Week 20 schedule of events are listed below. There will be seven Week 20 races with one on Friday night, five on Saturday night and one on Sunday afternoon.

The Friday night race will be a Week 5 Make-Up Race at Magnolia Motor Speedway in Columbus, MS. There will also be a Double Feature event with a Week 19 Make Up Race at Camden Speedway in Camden, TN.

Ryan King of Anniston, AL can clinch the 2020 Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Late Model Sportsman National Championship with a 50-point win in Week 20 action on Saturday night or Sunday afternoon. King has had a Perfect Season with 550 points, and he currently has 14 50-point wins, including a Week 5 win, so a win at The Mag on Friday night would not count.

Brett White of Kosciusko, MS is one point behind King with 549 points. White also has a Week 5 win. If White wins out with a pair of Week 20 fifty-point wins and a 50-point win in Week 21 and Week 22, he would have a Perfect Season with 550 points and 14 50-point wins. If King fails to win any 50-point races before the end of the season they would be tied in points and 50-point wins.

The tiebreaker to win the 2020 Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Late Model Sportsman National Championships would be second-place finishes. Going into Week 20 competition, White has one and King has none.

ADAIRSVILLE, GA – The Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Street Stock Week 20 schedule of events are listed below. There will be eight Week 20 races with one on Friday night, and seven on Saturday night races to be contested in five different states. With Double Feature and Make-Up races, there will be three weeks-worth of points available.

Magnolia Motor Speedway in Columbus, MS will host a $1,000-to-win Week 5 Make Up race on Friday night. On Saturday night, Camden Motor Speedway in Camden, TN, Pike County Speedway in McComb, MS, and Thunderhill Raceway in Summertown, TN will have Double Features.

The first feature at each track will be a Week 19 Make-Up Race, and the second feature will be the regularly scheduled Week 20 race. The 2020 Newsome Raceway Park Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Street Stock Championship has come down to a battle between the 2018 National Street Stock Champion Ricky Idom of Hattiesburg, MS and Carl Kilgore IV of Greenville, MS.

Idom has a Perfect Score of 550 points, and 13 50-point wins. If Idom can get two 50-point wins this weekend, he can clinch his second Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Street Stock National Championship. It would have to come at a Double Feature event, as he already has a Week 5 win.

Kilgore has 549 points with ten wins. One more win and Kilgore would have a Perfect Season with 11 50-point wins. The best Kilgore can do this weekend is a pair of 50-point wins since he already has a Week 5 win. That would give him a dozen 50-point wins, one behind Idom with two weeks left in the 22-week season provided Idom’s win total stays at 13.

KING OF THE CRATES FOR THE CRUSA DIRT LATE MODELS THIS SUNDAY AT NAS

ADAIRSVILLE, GA – The Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Dirt Late Model Series and North Alabama Speedway officials are hopeful that the third time will be the charm to present the $3,000-to-win 4th Annual King of the Crates 50 this Sunday afternoon at the Tuscumbia, AL clay oval. The weather forecast is very favorable for Sunday afternoon.

The race has been postponed on two different occasions. The original date was on September 12, and that attempt was rained out just before Boyd Built Fabricators Group Qualifying. The second try for the King of the Crates Race was scheduled for October 10, but that try was rained out by the remnants of Hurricane Delta.

The third try this weekend will also be the second time the race has been contested on a Sunday afternoon. The 2019 National Champion Jake Knowles was ordained as King Jake II on Sunday afternoon, September 30, 2018. The track took rubber from top to bottom under the sun but did not lock down and provided the fans and competitors with some great racing action.

King Jeremy III Shaw of Millport, AL is the defending race winner, and two-time series Champion King Cory I Hedgecock of Loudon, TN won the inaugural race in 2017. Jimmy Thomas of Phenix City, AL won the preliminary 40-lap King of the Crate Race at North Alabama Speedway on September 11 with Shaw finishing second, as he tuned up to keep his crown.

Wil Herrington of Hawkinsville, GA will ride into North Alabama Speedway this Sunday afternoon with a 124-point lead in the National Touring point standings over Cruz Skinner of Oxford, AL. In the first 13 races of the 2020 season, Herrington has 1,194 points after four wins, ten top five finishes, 11 top ten finishes, and three Boyd Built Fabricators Fast Time Awards.

Skinner is in a tight battle for the second spot in the standings with Corey Dunn of Milledgeville, GA. Skinner, with 1,070 points, has an eight-point advantage over Dunn, who has 1,062 points. Skinner has on win, seven top five finishes and ten top ten finishes in 12 races.

Dunn has one win, three top five finishes, ten top ten finishes and two Boyd Built Fabricators Fast Time Awards in 13 races. Dunn is also the Cruise With The Champions Rookie of the Year point leader. T.J. Brittain of Centre, AL is fourth in the National standings with 1,016 points, and Jody Knowles of Tyrone, GA is fifth with 968 points.

There will also be a couple of other point battles within a point battle this Sunday afternoon at North Alabama Speedway. Drivers 18 years of age and younger will battle for VP Racing Fuels Young Guns Challenge Series points, and with Late Model drivers having the option to earn Touring points or Weekly points, some will choose to race for Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Late Model points.

Trynt Lloyd of Jacksonville, FL is chasing Bryson Mitchell of Russellville, AL for the VP Racing Fuels Young Guns Challenge Series point lead. Lloyd is sixth in the Touring points, and second in the Young Guns points. Mitchell leads the Young Guns points with an 83-point advantage over Lloyd.

Mitchell, who is a regular at North Alabama Speedway in Weekly Racing Series action, is third in the Crate Racin’ USA Weekly Racing Series Late Model points, nine points behind the point leader, 2019 National Champion Shannon Lee of Lumberton, MS, and three points behind the second-place driver, Oakley Johns of Hohenwald, TN.

The gates at North Alabama Speedway will open on October 18 at 12:30 p.m. Central Time, with Newsome Raceway Parts Crate Racin; USA Dirt Late Model Series Pre-Race Registration and Technical Inspection from 12:30 p.m. until the start of the Drivers Meeting at 1:45 p.m. Hot Laps are scheduled for 2 p.m. with racing to follow.

KING OF THE CRATES RACE AT NAS POSTPONED UNTIL OCTOBER 18

ADAIRSVILLE, GA – Crate Racin’ USA and North Alabama Speedway officials have announced that Saturday’s $3,000-to-win 4th Annual King of the Crates Race for the Newsome Raceway Parts Dirt Late Model Series has been postponed due to the forecasted path remnants of Hurricane Delta will be taking this weekend. The race has been rescheduled for Sunday, October 18.

“We rescheduled the race on a Sunday to avoid scheduling conflicts with other tracks, events in the area, and other events,” Crate Racin’ USA Director Adam Stewart said. “It is our hope to have the show completed and have everyone on the road home by 5 p.m.”

This is the second postponement of the King of the Crates Race, as it was rained out just before Boyd Built Fabricators Group Qualifying on September 12. It will also be the second time the race has been contested on a Sunday afternoon.

The 2019 National Champion Jake Knowles was ordained as King Jake II on Sunday afternoon, September 30, 2018. The track took rubber from top to bottom under the sun but did not lock down and provided the fans and competitors with some great racing action.

Joey Coulter Claims SMART Modified Win In Florence Debut

For Immediate Release

TIMMONSVILLE, SC (October 17) – Former NASCAR Truck Series winner Joey Coulter made his Modified debut Saturday night at Florence Motor Speedway setting a new track record and taking the Southern Modified Auto Racing Teams (SMART) win in the Smart Chevrolet 99.

“I told Randy [Renfrow] to tell me what pace to go and when to go and then I’ll give you what I’ve got,” said Coulter afterwards. “When he turned me loose I knew it was the right time to go. What an awesome car, awesome night, awesome weekend.”

Coulter set a new track record in qualifying with a fast lap of 16.956 seconds, but would start ninth after the redraw. That put Caraway winner, Brian Loftin, on the pole, alongside two-time SMRS Modified champion, Jeremy Gerstner.

Gerstner would get the lead at the start of the race, but would be bypassed early on by NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour race winner, James Civali. The two would set a torrid early pace, putting several cars a lap down, including 10-time Bowman Gray Speedway champion, Tim Brown, who spun on lap 18 to bring out the night’s first caution.

Gerstner would go back out front on the restart, but Civali again would move by to take the lead on lap 25. Former NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour champion, Jamie Tomaino, ran as high as third, but spun exiting turn four on lap 26. Following a competition caution on lap 30, Gerstner would again go back out front and would lead until being passed by Tom Buzze on lap 52. Unfortunately for Gerstner, his chances at winning ended a lap later when the lapped machine of Carlos Gray spun in turn three and collected him and Jason Myers.

Tire strategy was now coming into play as Burt Myers assumed the lead from Buzze on the restart. Now back on the lead lap, Tim Brown and B. Myers ran side-by-side for several laps as they battled for the lead, until the caution waved with 31 laps to go for a spin by Civali on the backstretch. B. Myers and several lead lap cars pitted, putting Brown into the lead until Coulter moved by with 25 laps to go. Coulter led the rest of the way to take his first career SMART Modified win over B. Myers, Brian Loftin, John Smith, and Brown.

Averitt Lucas took the lead from Perry Patino on lap 6 and never looked back to take his second straight Limited Late Model win at Florence. Polesitter Casey Kelley dropped back to fifth in the early going, but was making his way back to the front before tangling with Robert Powell for second with 15 laps to go. Following Lucas at the checkered flag were Isabella Robusto, Clay Thomas, Anthony Miller, and Kevin Parsons.

Veterans Strom Altman and Jody Measamer had a heated battle for the lead throughout the night before Altman was able to take command with 8 laps to go and get the win in SuperTrucks. Willie Grainger took a wild ride off the back straightaway with 26 laps to go, which would eventually lead to the end of his night. Behind Altman at the finish were Cody Kelley, Measamer, Adam McCumbee, and Jacob Lewis.

Brandon Johnson passed Matt Briggs with 7 laps to go to take the Mini Stock win. Rounding out the top five were Connor Lee, Will Bruorton, and Drake Williamson.

The next event at Florence Motor Speedway will be the Charlie Powell Memorial weekends in November. The South Carolina 250 will be on Saturday, November 14 for the Limited Late Models, SuperTrucks, and Mini Stocks. The following weekend will be the South Carolina 400 featuring Late Model Stocks and Tour-Type Modifieds.

BLAIR BECOMES 1ST PACE RUSH LATE MODEL TOUR REPEAT WINNER OF 2020 WITH 3RD "STEEL CITY STAMPEDE" VICTORY AT LERNERVILLE; 1ST 2020 EQUIPMENT RENTAL OPTIONS RUSH SPRINT WIN FOR RUTH; WOLBERT CAPS OFF HOVIS RUSH SPORTSMAN MOD WEEKLY TITLE WITH WIN

(Sarver, PA)...The Pace Performance RUSH Racing Series together with Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC once again participated in the "Steel City Stampede" finale at Lernerville Speedway this past weekend. The 12th edition saw three of RUSH's classes spotlighted with Max Blair capturing the Pace Late Model Touring Series victory, while Gale Ruth, Jr. copped the Equipment Rental Options Sprint Car Weekly Series special, and Chas Wolbert claimed the Hovis Auto & Truck Supply Sportsman Modified Weekly Series special on Saturday night. In addition, Zach Kane closed out the 13-division racing program winning the RUSH Late Model Non-Qualifier.

For the first 10 years of the "Steel City Stampede", there had never been a repeat winner in the Crate Late Model division. Last year, Max Blair ended a seven-year drought between "Steel City Stampede" victories, and on Saturday night Blair led all 25 laps for his second consecutive event win and third of his career. Blair, who opened the 2020 Pace RUSH Late Model Touring Series with a victory at Lernerville in the $10,000 to-win "Bill Emig Memorial", ended the season by becoming the first repeat winner of 2020. Blair had to fend off challenges by Joe Martin on several late race restarts for the $2,000 victory.

"This place is tough on restarts especially when you don't race here all the time," acknowledged the 30-year-old Centerville, Pa. standout. "I didn't know which lane to protect. I tried the top, then I took the bottom and felt like I got a little better start. Joe (Martin) was trying to lag back and really get a run on me so I tried to lag back and whoever was behind me kind of picked me up a bit. I didn't take off as good and thought it might have lost me the race, but we got back out in front of him down here (turns one and two). Joe is one of my good friends. We help each other a lot when we race together so it's always fun to race with him."

After winning the dash on Friday night to earn the pole position, Blair took off in the lead at the start of the 25-lap feature over Tommy Schirnhofer, Jr. and Tour regulars Joe Martin, Ryan Frazee, and Michael Duritsky, Jr. On lap two, Martin put a big slide job on Schirnhofer in turn four to grab second. After falling out of the top five early, Colton Flinner raced into fourth on lap six then put a slider on Schirnhofer for third on lap eight. Flinner, who was driving one of his old cars recently purchased by Bob Bentz, closed in on Martin on lap nine; however, his shot at capturing the Touring Series Car Owner Championship for Bentz ended when he slipped over the cushion in turn four to bring out the caution with 13 laps scored.

Tour regular Logan Zarin had raced from seventh to third with five laps to go before getting tangled up in an accident. The man on the move was 14th starting Chad Homan. The Penfield, New York driver, who finished fifth in the 2019 Pace RUSH Weekly Series points, was making his 2020 RUSH debut and worked his way up to third by lap 21. Homan was right there in the battle for the lead as him and Martin were trying everything they could to overtake Blair.

Martin was all over Blair in the final four laps following the last restart, but just was unable to make the pass as Blair's Murphy's Logging/C&J Dairy/Previty's Auto Wrecking/Specialty Products/Moody & Son Welding/Upstate Auto-sponsored #111 would take the checkered flag first by a winning margin of only 0.690 of a second for his all-time leading 29th career RUSH Tour victory.

Martin's $1,000 runner-up effort was his best Tour finish of 2020 eclipsing his third on July 18 at Pittsburgh as he earned second place in the Tour Driver points. Homan's third place was his best Tour finish since a third place run more than two years ago on July 18, 2018 at Outlaw Speedway in his home state.

Jeremy Wonderling finished fourth to earn his third straight Tour title and continues to lead the National Weekly Series Championship, but it was an eventful weekend to say the least. Wonderling discovered motor issues on Friday and borrowed a motor from Tour regular Logan Zarin on Saturday. Wonderling went out and won the first B main and raced from 21st to battle for a top five before jumping the cushion and falling deep back through the field. Wonderling though wasn't done as he charged back up to fourth place to secure the Tour Owner Championship over Bentz. It was Wonderling's fourth fourth place finish in six starts as he failed to finish worse than sixth in any Tour race.

Jason Knowles, who had a great season at New York's Woodhull Raceway winning five features and the track championship, made his first Tour start of the 2020 season. The third place Weekly Series point man had a solid effort finishing fifth after starting 12th for the former longtime Tour regular. Schirnhofer dropped to sixth. Flinner worked his way back up to seventh. RUSH rookie Josh Ferry was eighth as he locked up third place in the Tour Driver points. Two other New York racers in Clayton Tarabori and Brian Knowles also made their first Tour starts of 2020 and finished ninth and tenth respectively.

Zach Kane had planned on competing in his own #10 car, but discovered a broken rear end prior to race day on Friday. Kane decided to hook up with Joe and Andrew Squatriglia and bring their #15X car to Lernerville on Saturday where Kane tagged the first B main and missed the transfer spot by one. That earned Kane the pole position for the Non-Qualifier, which he went out and dominated for the $200 victory. The 28-year-old Washington, Pa. driver became the 43rd different winner in 52 races run all-time. Fifth starting D.J. Nakutis was second. After spinning out on lap four, Jason Harmon came back to finish third in his first Tour start in more than two years. Denny Nakutis and Jacob Peterson were fourth and fifth.

Rookie racer Kassidy Kamicker finished sixth in the Non-Qualifier to earn the "Wheelman" Bonus Event Challenge Series Championship, worth $300. The 17-year-old Aliquippa, Pa. go-kart graduate also finished second in the "Futures Cup" points and 10th in Tour Driver points!

Frazee set fast time in FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock" Qualifying for the first time in his career with a lap of 17.039 over the 33-car field on Friday night to earn $100. Picking up heat race wins on Friday night were Frazee, Flinner, Ferry, and Blair to add $25 from FK Rod Ends. Saturday's last chance B mains were copped by Wonderling and Khole Wanzer.

Making just his third start aboard the new #24 team owned by Rich and Melinda McConnell, Gale Ruth, Jr. went out and dominated the caution-free RUSH Sprint Car feature. Ruth led all 20 laps ending a 50-month plus winless drought as he earned the $800 Equipment Rental Options Weekly Series special victory in the 2020 finale. Ruth also became the third different "Steel City Stampede" winner in as many years.

"Man you don't know what this means to me," expressed the 42-year-old Pleasantville, Pa. driver. "The Lord has been so good to me this last year. I can't thank the McConnell Family enough to get an opportunity to drive a car like this; without them along with Brian Steinman and George Frederick none of this would be possible. It's amazing to be as blessed as I am to do this. It means a lot to win here, but it means so much to win for Rich (McConnell). Him and I have been friends for so long. This is just a dream come true to do this for him. I have to thank Don Blackshear for getting this motor put together so soon; it was a last minute deal and we weren't even supposed to race this year. I also want to thank my dad and everyone watching at home on DIRTVision- I really appreciate it."

While Ruth raced to the early lead, Brian Woodhall passed Zach Morrow for second on the opening lap. Brian Ruhlman then passed Morrow for third on lap three. Morrow stayed with Ruhlman and a great battle ensued for third, while Ruth began to check out from the field on lap five. By lap nine, Steve Pedley joined the battle for third. Ruhlman finally broke free of Morrow and Pedley as he closed in on Woodhall on lap 13. Ruhlman made the pass for second on lap 15.

By the time Ruhlman got to second, Ruth had a solid straightaway lead. Ruth went unchallenged in the Rustler Sales & Service-sponsored #24 taking his first win since August 15, 2018 by 4.515 seconds. Ruth's fourth career Lernerville win was the sixth of his RUSH career overall. Ruhlman has now finished runner-up at the "Steel City Stampede" in all three years for the RUSH Sprint Cars!

Woodhall, Morrow, and Pedley were third through fifth. Andy Feil went ninth to sixth as Brian Hartzell, Rick Regalski, Jr., Jack Sodeman, Jr., and rookie Brandon Shughart completed the top 10. Heat winners on Friday night over the 17-car field were Morrow and Ruhlman. Though he wasn't in competition for the final two races, Jeremy Weaver captured his first Equipment Rental Options Weekly Series Championship driving the Cal and Ted Hull-owned #41.

Despite COVID-19 delaying the start, it's been a dream season for Chas Wolbert in the Pace RUSH Sportsman Modifieds. On Saturday night, Wolbert put the icing on the cake of his first Hovis Auto & Truck Supply Weekly Series Championship by winning the $800 caution-free feature. Wolbert passed early leader Josh Deems on lap five and held off a valiant charge by two-time champion Garrett Krummert to become the amazing seventh different "Steel City Stampede" winner in as many years!

"This is awesome," expressed the 26-year-old Warren, Ohio racer. "My goal was obviously to win a championship and finish decent in this race. We've never won the 'Stampede'. We hit all of our goals tonight. We've been blessed to still race when we can with COVID. We've had a great car all year against great competition. I've been four years at this and have come up short every year by just a few points. I have great people around me. When you put yourself to something and get the reward back out of it- you can't complain at all."

Deems, who always excels at Lernerville, took off in the lead over Tony Tatgenhorst in search of his first win of 2020. Wolbert started fifth, was up to fourth after one lap, and then drove under Krummert and Tatgenhorst for second on lap two. Wolbert caught Deems on lap three and two laps later snuck under him racing off turn four for the lead.

Krummert, who was also the 2020 Lernerville Big-Block Modified Champion for the first time in his career, passed good friend, Tatgenhorst, for third on lap four then drove past Deems with the benefit of the lapped car of Joe Gibson going down the backstretch on lap 13. Wolbert was mired in lapped traffic allowing Krummert to close in on lap 16. Krummert was all over Wolbert in the final laps, but Wolbert's Alcon Mechanical/Dunkin Donuts of Warren, OH/C.T. Wolbert Trucking/Walters Building Co./Ohio Intra Express/Russ King Racing/Sawtelle Tree-sponsored #c3 held on by just 0.293 of a second for his 11th overall win of 2020 and 33rd of his career in the division.

Deems was a solid third over Tatgenhorst. Rob Kristyak, who won the Wedge Motorsports "Route 7 Rumble" Series Championship finished fifth. Completing the top 10 were Clayton Deems, 14th starting Jacob Wolfe, Kole Holden, Jacob Jordan, and Steve Slater. Heat winners on Friday night were Krummert and Tatgenhorst.

Other than a pair of RUSH Late Model Weekly Series specials the next two weekends at Delaware International and Georgetown Speedways, the 2020 season for all of the RUSH Racing Series divisions are now completed. The 2020 RUSH Awards Banquet & Dinner will be on Saturday, January 17 at Gatherings Banquet & Event Center in Edinburg, Pa.

MARYLAND TEEN LEVI CROWL SLAYS "THE MONSTER HALF-MILE" WITH 1ST CAREER RUSH LATE MODEL TOUR WIN WORTH $3100 IN NIGHT 2 OF THE "BILL HENDREN MEMORIAL" PRESENTED BY FK ROD ENDS & PRO FAB AT PITTSBURGH

(Imperial, PA)...The Pace Performance RUSH Dirt Late Model Touring Series together with Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC returned to Pittsburgh's PA Motor Speedway on Saturday for night two of the 10th annual "Bill Hendren Memorial" presented by FK Rod Ends together with Pro Fabrication as part of the "Pittsburgher 100" weekend with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series.

Third year RUSH Late Model teenage racer Levi Crowl pulled off one of the biggest upset wins in Pace Performance Touring Series history on Saturday night. Crowl charged from the seventh starting spot to pass Kyle Lukon, winner of four of the last six Tour races at Pittsburgh, with seven laps to go then fended off challenges from two-time Tour champion Jeremy Wonderling and track regular Jake Gunn to capture the popular victory. In addition to the $3,100 payday, Crowl received a free wrap for the 2021 season from Dirtwrap valued at $800! Crowl became the fifth different Tour winner in five races in 2020 and third different driver to earn his first career Tour win!

Prior to 2020, Crowl made three Tour appearances at Pittsburgh failing to qualify for the feature each night; in fact, Crowl had competed in the "One to Remember" Non-Winners race each of the past two years during the "Pittsburgher". This year, Crowl scored the first two RUSH wins of his career coming at his home track, Winchester Speedway, in Weekly Series competition. Crowl didn't give up and returned to Pittsburgh on August 8 qualifying for the "Jook George Steel City Classic" with a 10th place finish and followed that up with a 16th place effort on Friday night. Persistence then paid off on Saturday night as Crowl was able to slay the "Monster Half-Mile"!

"It's extremely hard to win at this track," acknowledged the 19-year-old Clear Spring, MD racer. "Last year at this time we were running the Non-Qualifier race running third, fourth, and fifth- this is insane! I have no idea how this happened to be honest. I watched the Lucas Oil guys run the bottom. I knew it was rubbered up down there. I watched Lukon and some other guys try and run the top in traffic so I just stuck true to the bottom. It was bad fast, I persevered, and this is awesome. Everyone that comes here is the best of the best in the East Coast. I knew once I slipped up it wasn't going to be good; Lukon, Wonderling- someone was going to go under me. I regrouped, hit my marks in (turns) one and two, and three and four and we came away with the win!"

"It means everything to win here- I'm ecstatic," continued Crowl. "It's a true testament to my guys and how hard they work. We dream big. We come here and want to make the feature and from there we want to run top 10, but to come away with a win is unreal especially against these guys and this caliber of competition. It shows when the time came we can compete with these guys. My dad has been my best friend and crew chief since day one in Quarter-Midgets. I have to thank all of my sponsors and everyone that helps; definitely want to thank RUSH for putting this together. I wish we could have done 'Battle of the Bay' this year, but to be able to come here and get one is awesome."

Lukon picked up where he left off after winning Friday night's $3,100 Tour feature by setting fast time, winning his heat race, and the dash on Saturday night. Most figured Lukon would cruise to another $3,100 payday as he took off in the lead at the start of the feature, which followed the 100-lap Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series main event. Wonderling drove under and by Charlier for second on lap two. By lap five, Lukon and Wonderling began to distance themselves from the field, while the battle was on for third between Charlier and Logan Zarin. On lap six, Zarin put a slider on Charlier to take over the third, which was where he finished on Friday night for his best career Tour effort.

Chub Frank slowed on lap nine with a flat tire to bring out the night's first caution. That caution may have been what changed the night for Crowl. Crowl started seventh, but had fell back to ninth early on before getting back up to seventh when the caution was displayed. When racing resumed on lap 10, Crowl worked his way into fourth. The following lap, Crowl passed Zarin for third. Another driver making his way forward was Jake Gunn. Gunn started back in 11th and cracked the top five on lap 11 taking the spot from John Mollick then passed Zarin one lap later for fourth.

As the laps ticked off without another caution, Lukon caught lapped traffic on lap 20. Crowl meanwhile ran down Wonderling and made the pass for second on lap 21 in traffic. Crowl had the bottom working to perfection, and while Lukon struggled in traffic, Crowl pulled even and made the winning pass off the bottom of turn four on lap 23. Wonderling and Gunn though didn't go away as they both passed Lukon for second and third respectively on lap 25.

It looked like Crowl was well on his way to victory, but the teenager missed his mark in turn four coming to the white flag as his lead disappeared. Wonderling tried to use lapped traffic to his advantage racing to the outside of Crowl in turn one, but Crowl had the grip on the inside as Wonderling lost traction yielding second to Gunn. It was then a race to the checkered flag with Crowl running a perfect final lap to win by 0.778 of a second in his Drydene/Wrenches & Wreckers/Noel's Fire Protection/MS Shock Therapy.TW Vance Trucking-sponsored #5.

What a run for Gunn advancing nine spots for a career best Tour runner-up finish worth $1,500. Gunn has made select RUSH Tour starts each of the past eight years, but prior to Saturday night his best career finish was a ninth on two different occasions back in 2018 and 2015. It was a good weekend for the Gunn Family as Jake's younger brother Zach not only qualified for the feature both nights, but also finished second in the "One to Remember" Non-Winners race on Friday night.

Wonderling's third place finish was his career best at Pittsburgh as prior to Saturday night he had three fourth place efforts at the track including Friday night. Wonderling has now finished in the top six in all five Tour events this season including four top fours as he looks to nail down his third straight RUSH Tour Championship.

Kentucky's Grant Garrison had a career best Pittsburgh and RUSH Tour run finish by going 15th to fourth beating his best prior finish of fifth in 2018. After leading the first 22 laps, Lukon dropped to fifth at the finish. After Alex Ferree finished second on Friday night driving the Bob Bentz #60M, John Mollick was back behind the wheel of the #60M on Saturday night and finished sixth to stay in the hunt for the RUSH Tour Car Owner Championship.

Tommy Schirnhofer, Jr. was seventh over Charlier, who dropped to eighth. After going 23rd to sixth on Friday night, Josh Ferry had another good run finishing ninth from the 13th starting spot. Jacob Hawkins was aboard Chad Sines' #15 that competes on the RUSH Tour and raced from 23rd to 10th after failing to qualify for the feature on Friday night.

RUSH rookie Cole Petrelle led all 10 laps of the Non-Qualifier race to close out the "Bill Hendren Memorial" weekend and earned $500. After a caution for Josh Stoica and Kassidy Kamicker before one lap was scored, Petrelle was never challenged crossing the checkered flag first by an impressive 4.001 seconds. The 36-year-old Follansbee, WV driver became the 42nd different winner in 51 Non-Qualifier races run all-time in his Quick Time Suspension/Tye Twarog Racing-sponsored #184.

Maryland's Chuck Bowie raced from fifth to finish second. Colby Beighey was third edging out Kamicker by just 0.032 of a second. Kamicker came back through the pack after her early spin to finish fourth, which moved her into second place in the "Wheelman" Bonus Event Challenge Series point standings. Big-Block Modified veteran and part-time RUSH Sportsman Modified driver, Jim Rasey, who has taken over the seat of Jim Wrightsman's #21J, was fifth.

Lukon beat out Christian Schneider by just 0.016 of a second to earn the $100 FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock" Qualifying fast qualifier honors over the 34-car field. Lukon, Schneider, Mollick, and Zarin added $25 FK Rod Ends heat race victories. Four round of warmups, qualifying, four heat races, two last chance B mains, a dash, 30-lap feature, and 10-lap non-qualifier were contested with a total of two caution flags!

In addition to cash bonuses, the second through fifth place finishers in the features both nights and Friday's "One to Remember" received $250 off a Wrap N' Wear Package from Dirtwrap and Dirtink. CrateInsider.com gave away two GoPro Hero 8 and accessories valued at $480 to both Friday's "One to Remember" winner and a random draw on Saturday night which went to Denny Nakutis.

The 2020 RUSH Touring Series season will wrap up with its traditional finale at Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pa. for the "Steel City Stampede" on October 15-17. Thursday night will include an open practice with FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock" Qualifying, heat races, and the dash on Friday night. Saturday night will conclude the season with last chance B mains, the championship feature event, and the non-qualifier. Rain date is Sunday (October 18).

KYLE LUKON TOPS 41-CAR RUSH LATE MODEL TOUR FIELD FROM 8 STATES TO WIN NIGHT 1 OF "BILL HENDREN MEMORIAL" PRESENTED BY FK ROD ENDS & PRO FAB AT PITTSBURGH; TEAMMATE LEVI SPINNEWEBER CAPTURES $1000 PACE PERFORMANCE "ONE TO REMEMBER" NON-WINNERS RACE

(Imperial, PA)...The Pace Performance RUSH Dirt Late Model Touring Series together with Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC returned to Pittsburgh's PA Motor Speedway on Friday night for night one of the 10th annual "Bill Hendren Memorial" presented by FK Rod Ends together with Pro Fabrication as part of the "Pittsburgher 100" weekend. Capturing wins were Kyle Lukon in the main event and teammate Levi Spinneweber in the "One to Remember" Non-Winners race presented by Pace Performance. Forty-one cars from eight different states participated as all three Tour shows to date at PPMS have attracted over 40 cars. The following helped make the "Bill Hendren Memorial" the richest to date: FK Rod Ends, Pro Fabrication, Pace Performance, Miley Motor Sports, Hendren Racing Engines, CrateInsider.com, Dirtwrap, Zarin Truck & Auto, Branden Lockwich, and the RUSH Racing Series.

Kyle Lukon became the fourth different RUSH Touring Series winner in as many 2020 races by winning his second straight "Bill Hendren Memorial" in night one of the "Pittsburgher 100" weekend. Lukon, who on all three 2019 Tour events at Pittsburgh for $18,800, led all 30 laps in Friday night's feature for a $3,100 payday and received a free wrap for the 2021 season from Dirtwrap valued at $800.

"It's pretty incredible to win this Hendren race," acknowledged the 30-year-old racer of nearby Burgettstown, Pa. "The last two years just about every race I've won has been a memorial; all these people were the pioneers of what we're doing now. To be able to win memorial races named after the likes of Red Miley, Jook George, and Hendren twice now means so much; without those people a lot of this wouldn't be possible."

"The race track was awesome tonight," continued Lukon. "After I came in from the dash, dad said I think you screwed up because up to that point it was a pretty top dominant race track. I got by Tommy (Schirnhofer) on the bottom, but I was a little worried he may get the jump on me on the start. The car was awesome. Levi (Spinneweber) and his guys pitched in and helped. It's awesome to hear he ran pretty decent for only his second time in a crate and fourth time in a big car all together. Last year at the Pittsburgher, Alex (Ferree) and I finished one-two in my cars and for us to finish one-two again is pretty sweet, but I'm glad I'm on the good end of it!"

After going fourth to first in the dash to earn the feature pole, Lukon jumped into the lead at the start of the 30-lap feature event with Tommy Schirnhofer, Jr. in tow. Logan Zarin, sixth starting Kyle Hardy, and eighth starting Alex Ferree moved up into positions three through five after the opening lap. After falling out of the top five on lap one, Garret Paugh, raced past Ferree and Hardy for fourth on lap two.

Lukon quickly began to check out on the field as the battle heated up for second. Zarin dropped Schirnhofer back to third on lap three. Paugh, who won his first career Tour race on July 18 at Pittsburgh, then took over third from Schirnhofer on lap five. By the time Lukon caught traffic on lap 10, he had built a half-straightaway lead on Zarin at the "Monster Half-Mile". A little further back, a great battle was taking place for fifth as Super Late Model standouts Ferree and Hardy were trading the position back and forth numerous times until Hardy slowed with a flat tire to bring out the event's first caution with 13 laps completed.

When racing resumed on lap 14, Ferree and 15th starting Jeremy Wonderling moved past Paugh for the third and fourth spots respectively. Ferree, who was making his debut in Bob Bentz's #60M subbing for John Mollick looked strong as he continued to make his way to the front driving around Zarin for second on lap 17 before a caution for Justin Lamb, Matt Latta, and Zach Gunn, who tangled between turns and two.

Back under green for the final time as the last 13 laps went green-to-checkered, it was three-wide in turn one for the lead but Lukon was able to maintain over Ferree, Zarin, and Wonderling. While Lukon pulled away, the battle was on for second and on back. At one point, Wonderling got up to P2 from his 15th starting spot past Zarin and Ferree with even Spinneweber advancing up to fourth before things shook back out to how they were when racing resumed on lap 18.

After ending a six-year winless drought between RUSH Tour wins last year, Lukon has now won four of the last six Tour events at Pittsburgh giving him five for his career and bumping his all-time win total at the "Monster Half-Mile" to an impressive 39 in his Race 1/Tru Form Racing Products/Frankland Racing Supply/Rocket/Lukon's Reb-Fab-sponsored #184.

Ferree was 4.212 seconds behind Lukon in his 2020 RUSH debut and earned $1,500. Last year, Zarin followed the Touring Series in his second year of racing finishing sixth in points and winning the "One to Remember" race. This year, the 18-year-old from nearby Moon Township, Pa. has two Pace Weekly Series wins at Pittsburgh and on Friday night not only recorded his first career Tour top five finish but ended up on the podium with an impressive third place effort!

Wonderling, who is going after his third straight Tour championship and first National Weekly Series Championship, record his third fourth place finish in four Tour races to maintain his points lead. Spinneweber's fifth came in just his second career RUSH start. After making a late race pass to get the final transfer spot in last chance B main 1, Late Model rookie Josh Ferry had a great run going 23rd to sixth in the feature. Schirnhofer dropped back to seventh. Kentucky's Grant Garrison made his 2020 RUSH debut and raced from 14th to eighth. After getting as high as third early, Paugh faded to ninth over Jake Gunn.

Levi Spinneweber rounded out an excellent night for Phil Lukon's race team. After Kyle Lukon pocketed $3,100 in the night's main event and Spinneweber finished fifth for $525, Spinneweber followed it up by out-dueling Zach Gunn to win the Pace Performance "One to Remember" Non-Winners race. Spinneweber, who has had success in the small car divisions of Mod Lites and Super Six Late Models, captured his first full-size car win in the 20-lap event. In addition to the $1,000 cash, Spinneweber received a GoPro Hero 8 camera, SD card, waterproof case, and a JOES GoPro Mount from CrateInsider.com valued at $480 and a wrap for the 2021 season from Dirtwrap valued at $800!

"I can't thank Phil and Kyle enough for even being silly enough to put me in a race car," stated the 35-year-old Butler, Pa. driver. "It's a true blessing and honor to be able to drive for someone like Phil that has been racing in western Pa. for 35 years. We cut our teeth at Mercer Raceway Park when it was owned by Vicki Emig- the owner of the RUSH Racing Series. I've always appreciated her support of support divisions. It grew guys like me up by giving us a place to race and sharpen our talent. To be able to come on a big stage at PPMS and get a RUSH win makes me ecstatic and at a loss of words to be honest. The race car was way better than the driver in the first race. I don't know if it was jitters or what, but I finally got in a rhythm and we started going back forward. I think we had a top three car, but the driver left a little on the table, but we'll go to work and make this thing better for tomorrow night."

Gunn took off in the lead from the outside pole with Spinneweber passing Bill Kessler for second. Spinneweber moved into the lead on lap two before a pair of cautions with four laps completed slowed action. When racing resumed on lap five, Gunn again used the outside to regain the lead. Seventh starting Dan Lepro entered contention as he passed Tony White for third on lap seven before Andrew Squatriglia brought out the caution.

Back under green on lap eight, Spinneweber made the winning move driving under Gunn and pulled away at the halfway point. A spin by Josh Stoica gave Gunn one more chance at Spinneweber, but Spinneweber would maintain the top spot over the final seven laps to take the checkered flag first by 1.717 seconds over Gunn in the Race 1/Tru Form Racing Products/Frankland Racing Supply/Rocket/Lukon's Reb-Fab-sponsored #184X. Lepro was a distant third over pole-sitter Kessler. Stoica charged back through the field after his spin in the final seven laps to finish fifth. White, Eric Hamilton, Jr., Denny Nakutis, Zach Kane, and Squatriglia completed the top 10.

Ben Policz set fast time overall in FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock" Qualifying to earn $100 with a lap of 19.000 not far off Mike Pegher, Jr's 18.849 track record set eight years. Winning the $25 FK Rod Ends heat races were Zarin, Ferree, Paugh, and Lukon. Zach Gunn and Levi Crowl won the last chance B mains.

The RUSH Touring Series will be right back in action tonight (Saturday) for night two of the "Bill Hendren Memorial" with $3,100 again on the line again at Pittsburgh. There will also be a $500 to-win, $150 to-start Non-Qualifier. Warmups begin at 6 p.m. followed by qualifying and racing with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series.

Dillinger claims 2020 FASTRAK VP Racing Fuels National Weekly Championship

Braeden Dillinger has claimed the 2020 FASTRAK VP Racing Fuels National Weekly Championship after his fourth-place finish at Latrobe Speedway on Saturday night. Andrew Koenig picked up his first career late model win at Latrobe Speedway. Justin Hudspeth was the winner at Friendship Motor Speedway.

While Dillinger has mathematically claimed the title, the full standings are still pending the completion of Saturday night’s feature at Elkins Raceway. Heavy fog postponed the feature to September 19, with the full 24-car field line upset after the completion of heat races. Drivers who were at Elkins and made the feature will have their points counted once the program is completed on September 19.

The FASTRAK VP Racing Fuels National Weekly Championship will pay the top 30 drivers in points, after the elimination of FASTRAK Divisional points in 2020. A full season wrap-up will be released once the points are finalized.

PACE PERFORMANCE RUSH RACING SERIES TO CLOSE OUT 2020 SEASON THIS WEEKEND AT LERNERVILLE'S "STEEL CITY STAMPEDE" WITH LATE MODEL TOUR PLUS SPORTSMAN MODS & SPRINTS

(Sarver, PA)...The Pace Performance RUSH Racing Series together with Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC will have a tripleheader of action this weekend (October 15-17) at Lernerville Speedway for the "Steel City Stampede". The RUSH Late Model Tour finale will lead the way, while the RUSH Sportsman Modifieds will battle in a Hovis Auto & Truck Supply Weekly Series special, and the RUSH Sprint Cars in an Equipment Rental Options Weekly Series special. Practice will be held Thursday night (October 15) with heat races for all divisions on Friday night followed by the conclusion of the events on Saturday. Group qualifying for the RUSH Late Models will be at 7 p.m. on Friday followed by racing at 7:30. On Saturday, racing will begin early at 4 p.m. The rain date is Sunday.

"This is always a great way to end our season," stated RUSH Director Vicki Emig. "The RUSH championships annually comes down to this event. Our Late Model racers are always excited to get the chance to compete at Lernerville. The car counts have always been strong and the racing at Lernerville is always some of the best of the season. The Sportsman Modifieds have been given the opportunity to race numerous times over the past seven seasons at Lernerville. Lernerville was a very important part of getting our RUSH Sprint division off the ground in 2018, and their races this year at the track have been tremendous."

This year's "Steel City Stampede" will be the 12th edition of this huge event that includes most of the region's racing divisions all showcased in this end of the season blowout for the region. There has only been one repeat RUSH Late Model winner and it took until last year for that to happen; past winners include Josh Holtgraver (2009), Bryan Force (2010), Butch Lambert (2011), Max Blair (2012 & 2019), Dennis Lunger, Jr. (2013), Chad Ruhlman (2014), Jacob Hawkins (2015), John Mollick (2016), John Waters (2017), and Colton Flinner (2018).

Saturday's event will pay $2,000 to-win. There will also be a $200 to-win, $150 to-start non-qualifier. The RUSH Late Models are coming off a very successful record-setting "Bill Hendren Memorial" event presented by FK Rod Ends in conjunction with Pro Fabrication as part of the "Pittsburgher 100" at Pittsburgh's PA Motor Speedway two weeks ago.

There has yet to be a repeat winning on the 2020 RUSH Late Model Tour. The season got underway at Lernerville on June 27 when Blair won the $10,000 "Bill Emig Memorial" for the second straight year. Since then, Garret Paugh, Michael Norris, Kyle Lukon and Levi Crowl have been victorious at Pittsburgh. Will there be a sixth different winner in six events this weekend!?

One driver looking for his first Tour win of 2020 is Jeremy Wonderling. The Wellsville, NY driver enters the weekend as the points leader in both the Pace National Weekly Series and Touring Series Championships. Wonderling has never won the Weekly title; however, is poised for his third consecutive Tour title. Wonderling hasn't finished worse than sixth in any Tour race this year. While Wonderling has all but locked up the Tour Driver Championship, his lead is only 14 on the Bob Bentz-owned #60M in the Tour Car Owner Championship. Alex Ferree raced the #60M to a runner-up finish on October 2, while John Mollick was chasing after a Lernerville Big-Block Modified Championship. Completing the top 10 in Driver points are Joe Martin, Josh Ferry, Michael Duritsky, Jr., Ryan Frazee, Bill Kessler, Tony White, Mollick, and Kassidy Kamicker.

FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock Qualifying and Beat the Heat" will be utilized on Friday night for the Late Models meaning the fastest qualifier will receive $100 and all heat race winners will earn $25. The pole position dash will also be run on Friday night.

Meanwhile, the RUSH Sportsman Modifieds will join the "Steel City Stampede" for the seventh consecutive year in an $800 to-win event. Greg Martin won the inaugural race in 2014, while Nick Ritchey won his first ever at Lernerville in 2015. Rocky Kugel topped what was at the time in 2016 was a record field of 29 cars. Steve Slater won the 2017 show, while teen Blaze Myers scored a popular first Tour win in 2018 after coming out of the B main to also win the "Futures Cup" title. Last year, Eric Gabany became the sixth different "Steel City Stampede" winner in as many years. Interestingly, three of the top RUSH Sportsman Mod winners in recent years, Garrett Krummert, Chas Wolbert, and Rob Kristyak, have yet to win a "Steel City Stampede" belt buckle.

The RUSH Sportsman Mods have made one visit this season to Lernerville this year on July 24 for the "RUSH Summer Showcase" when Wolbert topped a 23-car field. Wolbert has already clinched his first Hovis Weekly Series title. Kristyak, who won the Wedge Motorsports "Route 7 Rumble" Series title, has locked up second in points. Kole Holden, Tony Tatgenhorst, and Kyle Martell sit third through fifth in points. Ayden Cipriano, who clinched the Hovis "Futures Cup" Championship, is sixth in points.

The RUSH Sprints will wrap up their third season this weekend racing for $800 to-win, $160 to-start. In their two prior Lernerville appearances this year, Jeremy Weaver won on July 24 and Jack Sodeman, Jr. won on October 2 in his RUSH Sprint Car debut. Weaver has already clinched the Equipment Rental Options Weekly Series point championship in the Hull Racing #41.

By virtue of his third consecutive Pittsburgh win this season last Saturday night, Zach Morrow vaulted to second in the Equipment Rental Options Weekly Series points. Morrow won twice at Lernerville each of the past two seasons, and would love to end 2020 victorious to clinch the runner-up spot in points for the second straight year. Steve Pedley, Andy Feil, and Brian Hartzell are third through fifth in points. Pedley won his first career feature earlier this season at Sharon Speedway.
