2024 Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals

Pierce Collects $50,000 for First Career Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals

KNOXVILLE, IA (September 21, 2024) - Bobby Pierce made history by becoming the 15th different driver to win the Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals presented by Your Life Iowa. He claimed the $50,000 top prize on Saturday night in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series-sanctioned event.

 

Pierce led 67 of the 75 laps to earn his 34th feature win of the 2024 season. Brian Shirley, who won the 2006 Late Model Knoxville Nationals, came from the 15th starting position to finish in the runner-up spot. Devin Moran rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third. Garrett Alberson came from 12th to take fourth and Tim McCreadie finished fifth to earn the final spot in the Big River Steel Chase for the Championship presented by ARP.

 

In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the sixth time this season and for the 23rd time in his career, Pierce survived a red flag with 15 laps to go for a near half-hour rain delay after he had regained the lead from Hudson O’Neal on lap 43.

 

Pierce and Jonathan Davenport started on the front row. Pierce grabbed the early lead on the first circuit, while Moran, who started third, quickly made his way into second. While Pierce was stretching his lead out over the field, Moran held the second position until Davenport took the spot on lap 19.

 

O’Neal then began a charge to the front. After starting in fifth, he climbed to second place by lap 20. He then stalked Pierce until he took over the lead from Pierce after a lap 35 restart. O’Neal then battled with Pierce for the top spot until lap 43, when Pierce regained a lead he would never relinquish.

 

O’Neal stayed in second as he appeared to be headed for the Big Steel Big Four playoff spot, but after a lap 55 caution, he was never the same. He fell through the field, eventually pitting before the rain delay on lap 60. He finished 15th.

 

On the restart after the rain delay, Pierce would hold a steady lead as McCreadie would get by Shirley on lap 61, but Shirley returned the favor, reclaiming second on lap 63. Shirley then tried to track down Pierce but fell short of his second win at Knoxville.

 

“That was the problem being first on the restart,” said Pierce, who saw O’Neal grab the lead on a lap 35 restart after a caution for Dillon McCowan. “The track was going through a transition there; if you go to the top, you might get passed on the bottom or vice versa. Hudson got by me, but it looked like he was struggling; he was laid over in the corners. I could tell I could stay with him in the corners, and whenever you can be that close to somebody on this big of a track, you know you have a good car that’s probably better than theirs,” said the Oakwood, Illinois native.

 

“He [O’Neal] got a little tight of four, and I had a good slider there in one, and from then on, it was just nerve-racking hanging on to the lead, don’t jump the cushion. Back with Dunn-Benson in 2018, you know, racing for them, I think I slid Jimmy [Owens] for the lead, and I jumped the cushion, and I ended up not winning that race because of it. The last time I was here two years ago, I had some mechanical issues that took me out of the race while I was leading. It feels great to win this race. It’s an awesome place. It’s such a unique track; everything about this place is very unique. It really doesn’t race like anywhere else. It’s a lot of fun out there. I am glad to have a fast race car to win tonight.”

 

Shirley, who won the race 18 years ago after spinning early in that race, came from 31st place to win. This time, he came up 1.178 seconds short at the finish.

 

“I felt like my car was good. It was just one of those things on that restart the motor was laying down. There are not many times you can get a restart that could be that phenomenal. It’s pretty cool; it’s two of my kids’ birthday today. I wish it could have been a little different at the end. We’ll keep fighting, though.”

 

Moran recorded his best career finish in the crown jewel event, coming home third.

 

“That’s the Knoxville we come to race for. They did a great job on the track with the weather. I am glad it rained there a little, I think it made the track even better. I am glad to get out of here in one piece, and I’m ready to come next year.”

Pierce Holds Off Sheppard and Blair to Win Friday Prelim at Knoxville

KNOXVILLE, IA (September 20, 2024) – Bobby Pierce led all but two laps of the Friday preliminary feature at Knoxville Raceway. He captured the 25-lap $7,000-to-win main event for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series during night two of the 20th Annual Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals presented by Your Life Iowa.

 

Pierce reclaimed the lead in the race on lap 18 after Max Blair, who had just taken the top spot on lap 17, slipped up in turn two. This allowed Pierce to regain the lead for good, as he led the last eight laps to secure his 33rd feature win of 2024.

 

Brandon Sheppard advanced from ninth to claim second place, overtaking Blair on lap 18. Blair finished third, followed by Devin Moran and Daulton Wilson.

 

Wilson led the opening lap from his pole starting position, but by the second lap, Pierce, who had started alongside Wilson on the front row, had taken over the lead.

 

Pierce then pulled out to what appeared to be a healthy lead until he started to pick up the tail end of the field which allowed Blair and Sheppard to gain considerable ground on him.

 

Blair made a power move to take over the lead from Pierce on lap 18, but he couldn't hold his line on the bottom coming off turn number two. Pierce was able to slip back by him and regain the lead for good in the caution-free race.

 

In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the fifth time this season, Pierce returned to Knoxville Victory Lane for the first time since 2022.

 

“I was a little tight even on the top; the car was laid over a little bit so I really couldn’t get around there quite like I wanted to, but I can’t thank my guys enough for all their hard work and their support and all of these fans for coming out and watching us. We wanted to play that invert all night after yesterday. My one goal was to start up front and not row four. We got lucky with the qualifying and the heat race, too. What an awesome night for us.”

 

“That one instance when he [Blair] got the lead, sometimes you don’t know how hard it is to charge the next corner. I think he went in there a little hot and shoved. I luckily was in the right spot at the right time and got under him, and then when we went down the backstretch there, it was just a drag race to get back to that turn three corner on the bottom.”

 

Sheppard, who started on the inside of row five, came up just 0.390 seconds behind Pierce at the finish line.

 

“I think I had a shot [at the win] there for a bit. We had a really good car, it was very maneuverable, it was a lot better than yesterday. I couldn’t even make it around the track yesterday, but the guys went to work today and gave me a pretty good piece. I am happy with our turnaround. I think we have a good feature car for tomorrow night. It could drive straight through the corner, and I could put in anywhere I wanted to, so we are looking forward to tomorrow.”

 

Blair, who had come from seventh to grab the lead momentarily, was disappointed he could not hold the top spot as he was seeking his first-ever win at Knoxville.

 

“I just screwed up, man. I cleared him [Pierce], and I was like, man, I just won this race. But I drove into one a little easier than I should have, and I got tight, and I pushed. I gave that one away. I think we had a car definitely capable of winning the race and you don’t get too many opportunities like that at a place like this. We finally put a whole night together. We qualified well, and we were really good at the feature.”

Daniel Hilsabeck, Jonathan Davenport, Garrett Smith, Hudson O’Neal, and Garrett Alberson completed the top ten.

Davenport Dominates Opening Night of Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals

KNOXVILLE, IA (September 19, 2024) – Jonathan Davenport led all 25 laps on Thursday night at Knoxville Raceway to win the opening night main event for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, earning $7,000. It marked Davenport’s fifth career victory at Knoxville.

 

Davenport’s win was the 82nd of his Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series career, which ties him for second place on the all-time win list with Jimmy Owens. Bobby Pierce, who started eighth, raced his way to second place at the finish line, falling 1.470 seconds behind the winner. Hudson O’Neal finished third, followed by Devin Moran and Tim McCreadie.

 

In a race slowed by just one caution flag (on lap 14), Davenport’s only concerns were traffic and Pierce moving to second on the lap 15 restart. Still, the Blairsville, Georgia native was up to the task as he will be looking to add a second Knoxville crown jewel win to his resume on Saturday night to accompany his triumph in 2022.

 

In Lucas Oil Victory Lane for the eighth time this season, Davenport, who won the last Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series race at Port Royal in August, rolled from the outside of the front row to lead wire-to-wire.

 

“The car actually felt pretty good. I was happy we started out front. My guys gave me a great piece. We tried a few different things there and they seemed to really work. Pierce, obviously, he’s got the best car, I think. He waxed us qualifying and drove up through there in the heat. Unless I messed up it was going to be hard for him [Pierce] to pass me. You want to start up towards the front of the pack here. It’s important to start the weekend right like we did tonight.”

 

Pierce, who was seeking his 33rd feature win of 2024, charged from the outside of row number four to end his evening with a good points night by taking the runner-up spot.

 

“The inverts created some good racing. We got up through there, and he [Davenport] was really good; whenever I got close to him, my front end would take off or get loose. Maybe tomorrow it will be a little less hammer down. It would mean everything to get our first Knoxville title, and that’s why we are here this weekend. We could have taken off, but we’re trying to get that win. There’s a lot of money on the line, and hopefully, we can make it to Saturday and race for that $50,000. I love coming to Knoxville to race; it’s a very unique racetrack; there’s not a lot of places like it.”   

 

O’Neal, whose father Don won the Knoxville Late Model Nationals in 2011, is seeking his first trip to Victory Lane in the 20th running of the race on Saturday night, rounded out the Big River Steel Podium in third.

 

“I don’t know. It took me a while to get to second there, and it just worked out there where I could make up some ground getting into three on that bottom. I knew that whenever we had that restart, Bobby was going to be tough. I got clear of him down in one, and I messed up and just slid a little too hard down there and let him back get under me. All-in-all, I think we had a good piece, and it’s something to work on. Everybody had a little different tires on than we did, except for Jonathan. It’s going to be a fun week. I love this place.”

 

The winner’s Lance and Darla Landers, Double L Motorsports, Longhorn Chassis is powered by a Clements Racing Engine and sponsored by Nutrien Ag Solutions, Dyna Gro Seed, Bob Cat of Batesville, Lucas Oil Products, Bilstein Shocks, ASC Warranty, Mark Martin Automotive, Mega Plumbing of the Carolinas, VP Fuels, and Midwest Sheet Metal.

 

Dillon McCowan, Tyler Erb, Ryan Gustin, Brian Shirley, and Carson Ferguson completed the top ten.
