FloRacing Night in America Thunders into Bulls Gap THIS Thursday!!
A tight point battle for the FloRacing Night in America championship thunders into Volunteer Speedway (Bulls Gap, Tenn.) this Thursday night.
Round #8 of the miniseries boasts a $20,000-to-win / $1,000-to-start Super Late Model feature event with a total Super Late Model purse in excess of $68,000. But an even bigger payday hangs in the balance as competitors are down to the final three events of the season in pursuit of the $75,000 check that comes with a perfect attendance title.
Heading into Thursday’s event Brandon Sheppard holds a 21-marker advantage over Hudson O’Neal for the top spot in the standings with Devin Moran just 39 points removed from the lead in third.
Riding recent momentum, Bobby Pierce is on the move in the standings and is up to fourth, just 78 points of the lead. Meanwhile, Nick Hoffman, Tyler Erb, Ricky Thornton Jr., Kyle Bronson, Dennis Erb Jr., and Dan Ebert round out the Top 10 in the latest series standings.
More shakeups likely sit on the horizon in the series standings with only a driver’s best eight finishes counting toward the series title. Beginning with the final two rounds at Senoia (Ga.) Raceway on November 13-14 drivers will be eligible to drop their lowest two scores of their 10 finishes this season.
