Big car counts and some of the best racing in the country were the highlight of the Pro Late Model events.
With 4 wins and 5 top 5 finishes, Lawrenceville, Georgia’s Casey Roderick piloting the Ronnie Sanders / Pit Boxes Inc. #18 took home the hardware which included a custom champions ring and the big check for winning the 2016 “Show me the MONEY” points battle. In second place with 1 win and 5 top 5 finishes was #30 Bobby Knox Jr. Third with 1 win and 4 top 5 finishes was #43/#21 Justin South.
