Brandon Sheppard and Rocket1 Racing Repeat in Fairbury’s One For The Road
Knoxville Late Model Nationals on Tap this Weekend

SHINNSTON, W.Va. (09/14/21) – Registering his 15th win of the year, Brandon Sheppard piloted the Rocket1 Racing / Valvoline No. 1 Seubert Calf Ranches / Durham Racing Engines-powered XR1 Rocket Chassis Super Late Model to the $15,000 victory in Monday night’s One For the Road event at Fairbury Speedway.

The victory marked Sheppard’s second-straight in the event, and came after the team fell short of their goal of claiming their first World 100 win.

“We didn’t have the World 100 weekend that we hoped for. We just weren’t where we needed to be with the car on Thursday night in the 51st World 100, and then on Saturday night in the 50th World 100 we had a really good car, but a flat tire near the race’s midway point hampered our efforts,” Sheppard shared. “We rolled into Fairbury (Speedway) on Monday night, and got to the lead around lap 20 and never looked back. It’s always special to win at Fairbury, and this was a great win for our team.”

Rocket1 Racing and Brandon Sheppard visited the famed Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, Ohio) on Wednesday afternoon to enter preliminary action for the 51st annual World 100. With the 80-car field divided into two groups, Sheppard clocked in ninth-fastest in his group before picking up a heat race win. Starting the $10,000-to-win preliminary feature in fifth, Brandon improved two spots in the 25-lapper to finish third. He followed Johnny Scott and Nick Hoffman across the line with Bobby Pierce and Jonathan Davenport rounding out the Top-5.

Earning the fifth-starting position for his heat race on Thursday, Brandon edged his way into the $54,000-to-win World 100 with the third-and-final transfer spot. Starting in 16th, Sheppard faded two spots in the 100-lap affair to record an 18th-place outing.

For the 50th annual World 100 on Friday evening, Sheppard’s third-place finish in his heat race placed him fourth on the starting grid for the feature. With $10,000 on the line, Brandon clawed forward one spot to register a third-place finish. He trailed Gregg Satterlee and Bobby Pierce to the checkers with Nick Hoffman and Tim McCreadie completing the Top-5 finishers.

On Saturday, Brandon went from third-to-first in his heat race, which positioned him fifth on the starting grid for the $53,000-to-win finale. After pitting on lap 49 to replace a flat left-rear tire, Sheppard charged from the tail to finish sixth in the 100-lap affair.

Monday night found the team at Fairbury (Ill.) Speedway, where they entered the second annual One For The Road presented by I-Beam Sliding Doors. The $15,000-to-win Castrol FloRacing Night in America event drew a field of 31 entries to the ¼-mile oval. Brandon qualified sixth fastest in time trials before winning his heat race to earn the third-starting spot for the night’s 50-lap feature.

Sheppard worked his way to the lead on a lap 20 restart, and once out front never looked back on his way to his second-straight triumph in the event and his 15th overall win of the season. Tanner English, Bobby Pierce, Mike Spatola, and Gordy Gundaker completed the Top-5 finishers.

ULMS Double Dip at Thunder Mountain Speedway Up Next

INDIANA, Pa. (09/14/21) – Friday night found Gregg Satterlee visiting Eldora Speedway’s Victory Lane for the second time in 2021 in his Satterlee Motorsports No. 22 Keyser Manufacturing/ Valvoline/ Classic Ink/ XR1 Rocket Chassis / Clements Racing Engine Super Late Model.

Holding off a hard-charging Bobby Pierce, Satterlee claimed a $10,000 victory in preliminary action for the 50th World 100 to push his 2021-win total to 10. The Pennsylvania racer picked up his first-career Eldora Speedway win back in June during the Dirt Late Model Dream.

"I was a little worried. I know he's (Bobby Pierce) really good here. I was glad to see the checkered flag fly," Satterlee said while picking up his $10,000 paycheck in Eldora’s famed Victory Lane. "Nothing's for sure at these races, but it's fun getting up on this stage. It's awesome to see a huge crowd ... there's nothing like this place. I've gotta thank crew chief Robby Allen. We were working really hard at making this race car faster, and we wound up and swung for the fence in this feature, and I think we definitely got ahold of something."

Gregg Satterlee trekked to Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, Ohio) on Wednesday afternoon to compete in preliminary action for the 51st annual World 100. With the 80-car field split into two groups, Gregg laid down the 10th-fastest time in his group before placing second in his heat race. Slipping six spots in the 30-lap preliminary feature, Satterlee recorded an eighth-place finish.

Earning the second-starting position for his heat race on Thursday, Satterlee outran Chris Ferguson to pick up the 20-lap victory. Starting the $54,000-to-win World 100 in sixth, Gregg dropped three spots in the 100-lap affair to place ninth.

On Friday afternoon as the 50th annual World 100 got underway, Gregg’s second-place finish in his heat race placed him on the pole for his preliminary feature. Leading wire-to-wire in the 25-lap affair, Satterlee raced to his 10th win of the season, which came over Bobby Pierce, Brandon Sheppard, Nick Hoffman, and Tim McCreadie. He earned $10,000 for the triumph.

Rolling off third in his heat race on Saturday, Satterlee came one spot shy of a transfer position with a fourth-place finish, sending him into the B-Main. Recording a second-place finish, Gregg locked into the 24th-starting position for the 50th annual World 100. With $53,000 on the line, Satterlee was an early retiree from the 100-lapper on the 28th circuit. He was credited with a 25th-place finish.

Johnny Scott Bags First-Career Eldora Victory During World 100 Weekend
Scott Brothers Racing Prepares for Texas Dirt Nationals

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (09/14/21) – Johnny Scott claimed the biggest win of his young career on Wednesday night with a $10,000 triumph during the opening round of the 51st World 100 at Eldora Speedway.

Scott’s first triumph of 2021 came behind the wheel of his Rancho Milagro Racing No. 1st Mesilla Valley Transportation/ Longhorn Chassis/ Clements Racing Engines Super Late Model.

"This is crazy. It definitely exceeded my expectations for sure. Last time we came here to the double Dreams we didn't make either big race," Scott said in Thursday night’s Victory Lane, recounting his summer difficulties and crediting his crew during his season of part-time Late Model action. "It's been a long road, man. A couple of weeks ago I wanted to go back home. I was over it. These guys talked me into staying out and keep doing it.

“This is huge. If you ask anybody here in the pits, when you come here to Eldora, it a whole another animal. Honestly, I didn't think I was ever going to win here. So, this is unreal. I'm really at a loss for words."

Both Johnny and Stormy Scott were back behind the wheel of their Rancho Milagro Racing entries on Wednesday evening at Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, Ohio) as preliminary action kicked off for the 51st annual World 100.

With the massive 80-car field split into two groups, Johnny secured his spot into the A-Main with a second-place finish in his heat race while Stormy finished sixth. Stormy went on to pick up a 12-lap consolation victory before placing 18th in the main event.

Johnny led flag-to-flag in the 25-lap feature to capture his first win of the season and a $10,000 payday for his first-career Eldora Speedway victory. He finished ahead of Nick Hoffman, Brandon Sheppard, Bobby Pierce, and Jonathan Davenport.

On Thursday evening, Johnny was running fourth in his heat race, when he slowed with mechanical issues that eventually sidelined him for the remainder of the evening. Stormy followed up an eighth-place finish in his heat with a ninth-place outing in his B-Main as his night too came to an early end.

The following night as the 50th annual World 100 got underway, Johnny locked his spot into the $10,000-to-win preliminary feature with a third-place finish in his heat race, while Stormy grabbed the fifth-and-final transfer spot in his heat. In the night’s 25-lap features, Johnny finished 17th and Stormy placed 20th.

On Saturday evening, Johnny's convincing 20-lap heat race victory positioned him third on the starting grid for $53,000-to-win finale. Meanwhile, Stormy was collected in a tangle in his heat that brought a disappointing early end to his weekend.

In the mega finale, Johnny led laps 19-41 in the 100-lapper but tagged the wall on lap 61, ending his night.

For full results from these events, please visit www.EldoraSpeedway.com .

This Friday and Saturday, September 17-18 both Johnny and Stormy Scott will be in action at the Texas Dirt Nationals at The Dirt Track at Texas Motor Speedway. A $10,000 top prize is on the line for Friday night’s program, and a $50,000 winner’s check is up for grabs on Saturday evening.

Brandon Overton Bests Field in 51st Annual World 100
Adds $10,000 Prelim Win in 50th Annual World 100

EVANS, Ga. (09/14/21) – Last weekend at Eldora Speedway Brandon Overton added a coveted World 100 title to his resume. The Georgia racer streaked to the $54,000 triumph in the 51st running of the event on Thursday night. With the victory he became only the eighth driver in history to win both the Dirt Late Model Dream and the World 100.

Additionally, he won a $10,000 prelim on Friday night, and led laps in Saturday’s 50th annual World 100 finale before finishing third in his Wells & Sons Motorsports No. 76 Crossfit Overton / Allstar Concrete/ Longhorn Chassis by Wells Motorsports/ Clements Racing Engines Inc.-powered Super Late Model.

For Overton it was a dream come true, several years in the making.

“Me and Heather (Brandon’s fiancée) used to sit up there (in the stands), when, hell, I couldn’t event make the race and she used to tell me, ‘Don’t worry about it, we’re going to get ‘em one day’. Tonight we did it, and it means everything to have her here with me to enjoy this one,” Overton said in Victory Lane Friday night as his eyes filled with tears. “This car has been so good, and even when Dale (McDowell) passed me in the feature, I knew we could get back to the lead, so I didn’t panic.

“It obviously means a lot to me to win this race, but even more to be able to win it for David and Eric (Wells), that’s really a great feeling. Those guys have given me everything I need to be successful. I thank them and everyone who supports this team.”

Bringing to life the 51st annual World 100, Wells Motorsports and Brandon Overton visited the famed Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, Ohio) on Wednesday afternoon as the two-day show came to life with a pair of $10,000-to-win preliminary features.

With a stacked field of 80 Late Models jammed into the pit area, Brandon’s third-place finish in his heat race pinned him 12th on the starting grid for the A-Main. Coming one spot shy of a Top 5, Overton charged forward six spots in the 25-lapper to register a sixth-place finish.

With preliminary results from Wednesday setting the grid for heat races on Thursday, Overton outdueled fellow-front row starter Scott Bloomquist in the 15-lapper to pick up the win.

Earning the third-starting position for the 100-lap main event, Brandon began challenging early pacesetter Ricky Thornton Jr. on the 20th circuit and eventually stole the top spot four laps later. Setting the pace for the next 45 circuits, Overton briefly lost the lead to a charging Dale McDowell on lap 70 but regained the top spot on the ensuing circuit. He held off Tim McCreadie’s late-race charge to capture his 23rd win of the season and a $54,000 prize. McCreadie, McDowell, Hudson O’Neal, and Jonathan Davenport completed the Top-5 finishers.

Another round of preliminary features were on the docket on Friday night as the 50th annual World 100 kicked off. Overton gained three spots in his heat race to register a second-place finish. Leading flag-to-flag in the 25-lap feature, Brandon cruised to his 24th win of the season, which came ahead of Jimmy Owens, Kyle Bronson, Ricky Thornton Jr., and Dale McDowell. He won by a 3.734 second margin to claim the $10,000.

Rolling off second in his heat race on Saturday evening, Brandon streaked to a convincing 20-lap victory, which positioned him fourth on the starting grid for the $53,000-to-win main event. After leading laps 40-55, Overton was unable to hold off Jonathan Davenport in the 100-lapper. He followed Davenport and Mike Marlar across the line with Tim McCreadie and Chris Ferguson rounding out the Top-5.

"First off, congrats to J.D. (Jonathan Davenport) and Mikey (Marlar). They did a good job. We was alright until the brown (patches on the surface) left, then I just got way too tight. I couldn't turn. It is what it is. Hell, I can't win 'em all, you know?" Overton said after Saturday’s finale. "It's an unreal feeling to be here all week knowing you've gotta chance to win both these things, and I said I'll come back and get 'em again."

This weekend – September 17-18 – Brandon and Wells Motorsports will roll into The Dirt Track at Texas Motor Speedway (Justin, Texas) for the Texas Dirt Nationals. The program posts a $10,000 winner’s check on Friday and a $50,000 top prize on Saturday.
