Bring Dad to the Races Night at MMS

A full night of racing for “Bring Dad to the Races Night” featured the Show me the Money Pro Late Models, Blacksheep Woodlands Late Model Sportsman, Shelby Concrete Street Stocks, Impact zone photos Outlaw Late Model and a special visit from the Grand National Super Series with twin 50 lap features.

Grand National Super Series

The first division to hit the track at Montgomery on Saturday, June 17th was the Grand National Super Series. This series had two separate features, both scheduled to be 50 laps like every other GNSS event. 5 time NASCAR Cup Series winner Jeremy Mayfield would go on to win GNSS Feature 1 of the night, and A.J. Henriksen would hold off Jeremy Mayfield to claim the win for the GNSS Feature 2.

Show me the MONEY Pro Late Models

The main show of the night, the Show Me The Money Pro Late Models, held their 100-lapper feature as the second race of the night. Due to qualifying being rained out, the series points would dictate the starting order. 25 pro late models would start the 100 lap feature after 2 pro late models did not start. Points leader, Bryson Shaffer #12s would start on the pole and lead until the first caution before surrendering the lead to Christopher Tullis #12t. Hunter Robbins #18 worked his way through the field, and as the sun set, his car got better and better. Hunter Robbins would claim victory, with Chris Tullis in 2nd and Augie Grill in 3rd.

Blacksheep Woodlands Late Model Sportsman

The Late Model Sportsman cars were the first local division to hit the track at MMS on Saturday. The dice roll would result in a top 2 invert, meaning that Jason Furrow and Billy Melvin would start on the front row. Melvin would get out to an early lead, as he was on an absolute tear. However, after a pair of cautions, Perry Patino would take the lead and never look back. Patino would see the checkered flag first, with Jake Daniels finishing in 2nd and Billy Melvin having to settle for 3rd place.

Impact Zone Photos Outlaws

Outlaws hit the track next, and their race was full of drama and action. John Heil and Chad Chaffin would start on the front row after an invert of the top 4 from qualifying. Among other wrecks, the most notable was an incident between the two leaders. With 9 to go, Chaffin was all over the bumper of Heil, and in the middle of turns 1 and 2, contact from Chaffin’s car spun both drivers around. After that incident, Ryan Arms would find his way to the front, and he would take home the victory in his first trip to Montgomery Motor Speedway. After all the drama between Heil and Chaffin, they would both still finish in 2nd and 3rd respectively. Tempers flared between both crews after the race, but that’s just a part of short track racing.
