Billy Moyer Charges Late for CCSDS Steve Rushin Memorial Opener Win at Batesville
Action Continues on Saturday at Batesville with Another $5,000-to-Win Event

LOCUST GROVE, Ark. (09/21/24) – National Dirt Late Model Hall of Famer, Billy Moyer powered past race-long leader Jon Mitchell to take the lead on lap 31 of Friday’s 35-lap COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) Super Late Models event at Batesville Motor Speedway (Locust Grove, Ark.).

The hometown favorite paced the final five circuits of the opening round of the inaugural Steve Rushin Memorial to score the $5,000 win, which marked his first triumph of the year with the tour and the 14th of his career.

The win came aboard a Lance Landers prepared Longhorn Race Car with a Cornett Racing Engine.

“It was pretty gnarly out there for sure, with the holes and stuff going on, it’d give you a workout,” Moyer said in Victory Lane. “Steve (Rushin) was a great guy, I always got along with him real well and he helped me, I helped him through the racing times that we needed to use something he had, or I had. Just an all around great guy, ya know and I’m glad I could win that for him and my uncle Karl, he’s not doing real well right now either.”

Mitchell slipped to third in the closing laps behind eighth-starting Mason Oberkramer with Jamie Elam and 11th-starting B.J. Robinson rounding out the Top-5 finishers.

Billy Moyer made a clean sweep of the night by setting fast time in Mark Martin Automotive Group qualifying followed by a heat race win and ultimately the feature win.

Tyler Stevens was the MD3 Five Star Bodies Hard Charger recipient for his 17th-to-sixth performance.

The event salutes long-time racer, sponsor and car owner, Steve Rushin. The Poplar Bluff, Missouri native passed away on Sept. 9, 2023 at the age of 57.
