LAS VEGAS, Nevada -- It was an exciting night of racing at the Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Saturday night with twin 30-lap Super Late Model features during the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series
Super Late Model driver Spencer Clark qualified first for the first of two 30-lap feature events. He started second after a two car invert in the 30-car field.
Scott Gafforini started on the pole and led the entire race taking his second checkered flag of the season.
“That was a great race,” said Gafforini. “Spencer Clark was great too. This is what I do for a living.”
In the second Super Late Model event, Mike Cofer started on the pole based on a four-car invert. Spencer Clark took the lead on the first lap 11 and maintained his position to collect his fourth checkered flag of the season. Thane Alderman took second place. Finishing third and fourth were Tom Lovelady and Scott Gafforini.
“We had a problem during the first race but we got it fixed,” said Clark. “The car will be even better next week. I want to thank my father and all of the fathers in the stands that came out tonight.”
Jonathan Mawhinney was the top qualifier in the Delta Gunite Legends Semi-Pro division. Mawhinney, Bear Rzesnowiecky and Johnny Morrissey exchanged the top-3 positions throughout the race.
