Ricky Weiss Makes Maiden Trip to Victory Lane with Sniper Chassis
Pockets $5,000 for ULTIMATE Shamrock Victory at Boyds
HEADINGLEY, MANITOBA, Canada (03/21/22) – Ricky Weiss recorded an emotional victory on Saturday night at Boyd’s Speedway during the 2022 edition of the Shamrock.
For the first time, he parked his self-built Drydene Performance Products No. 7 J&C Properties / G-Style Transport/ Sniper Chassis / Vic Hill Racing Engine Super Late Model in victory lane.
The win was one that the Canadian driver will not soon forget.
The experience of building our own chassis has been humbling to say the least, but last night all of our long nights and hard work paid off!” Weiss shared less than 24 hours after his first victory since May 2020. “I’m hoping we can carry this momentum onto Bristol Motor Speedway the next two weeks for the Bristol Dirt Nationals.
“So many great folks have supported me through the thick and thin of developing this new car, and I thank them all from the bottom of my heart. I truly believe we are onto something big here, and hopefully this is the first of many wins to come this year.”
On Saturday evening, Ricky Weiss visited Boyd’s Speedway (Ringgold, Ga.), where he entered his Derrick’s Sandblasting No. 7 Turk Enterprises Sniper Chassis Super Late Model into battle for the Ultimate Southeast Series-sanctioned Shamrock.
With his 14.927-second lap in time trials placing him on the front row for the feature, Weiss outran polesitter Payton Freeman in the 40-lapper to capture his first win of the season and a $5,000 payday. He finished 0.888 seconds ahead of Freeman, with Jimmy Owens, Cory Hedgecock, and Cameron Weaver rounding out the Top-5.

This Friday and Saturday marks the first two $50,000-to-win programs with two more mega paydays on the line on April 1-2.

Gregg Satterlee Visits Victory Lane at Williams Grove in 2022 Lid Lifter
ULMS Doubleheader at Williams Grove and Port Royal Up Next
INDIANA, Pa. (03/21/22) – Gregg Satterlee kicked off his 2022 season in fine style by piloting his Satterlee Motorsports No. 22 Keyser Manufacturing/ Valvoline/ Classic Ink/ XR1 Rocket Chassis / Clements Racing Engine Super Late Model to a $3,500 triumph.
The victory came in Zimmer’s United Late Model Series action at the famed Williams Grove Speedway.
“That was kind of a crazy race,” Satterlee said. “I got a really bad start and was just trying to be patient and not get too excited in the holes down here. I was able to get up to second and was feeling really good, then the rain came and we come back out and I felt really good right off the bat. (When) Kyle (Hardy) broke, I was just fortunate for both of us I didn’t hit him when his driveshaft broke.
“Then on Sunday at Port (Royal Speedway) we weren’t quite good enough to get the win, but still came away with a runner-up finish. Overall, we were really pleased with how our season-opening weekend went.”
Gregg Satterlee invaded Williams Grove Speedway (Mechanicsburg, Pa.) on Friday afternoon to kick off his 2022 season in the Zimmer’s United Late Model Series (ULMS) event. After topping the 21-car field in time trials, Satterlee dashed to a heat race win, sending him to the redraw. Receiving the sixth-starting position for the finale, Gregg gained ground early until a small rain shower delayed the feature on the sixth lap.
Shortly after action resumed Satterlee inheriting the lead from Kyle Hardy after he lost a driveshaft on lap 9. From that point Satterlee soared to his first win of the season in the rain-shortened 20-lapper. He claimed a $3,500 payday ahead of Rick Eckert, Jason Covert, Gene Knaub, and Andy Haus.
After Mother Nature won Saturday’s event, Gregg returned to Port Royal (Pa.) Speedway on Sunday for the $3,500-to-win Zimmer’s ULMS event. Earning the third-starting position for the A-Main via preliminary results, Satterlee clawed forward one spot in the 30-lapper to register a runner-up finish. He trailed Colton Flinner to the checkers with Jared Miley, Michael Norris, and Rick Eckert rounding out the Top-5.

The upcoming weekend has Satterlee eyeing another Zimmer’s ULMS doubleheader. Action opens on Friday at Williams Grove Speedway before moving to Port Royal Speedway on Saturday.
Both programs post a $3,500 winner’s check.

He also added a runner-up finish in Friday night’s program.
“We had a great weekend in Texas. B.J.

We need more special events for Super Late Models in our region, so hopefully this deal continues to grow.
“We’re looking forward to heading to Davenport (Speedway) this weekend, and hopefully we can come back with a couple of big checks to hang on the wall. Thanks so much to everyone on our racecar for making this all possible.”

Robinson and Timothy Culp in the feature, Cade claimed his first win of the season and a $5,000 prize.

Joseph Joiner Survives Late-Race Chaos for XR Southern All Star Win
Bristol Dirt Nationals on Deck Next for Florida Racer
MILTON, Fla. (03/21/22) – Not even a flat tire with five laps remaining could slow down Joseph Joiner on Saturday night at Southern Raceway (Milton, Fla.) in the finale of the Bash at the Beach.
He survived the challenge of an airless right rear tire to pilot his Base Racing Fuel No. 10 Langenfelder Mechanical Contractors / Three Trade Consultants / Capital Race Car Late Model to the $5,000 triumph with the XR Southern All Star Dirt Racing Series at his home track.
“I seen the board there was five laps left when I felt it start going down, and I’m like, ‘There ain’t no way,’” Joiner said. “I knew the tire wear wasn’t gonna be bad enough for it to be wore out … I didn’t know why I was having a flat. I honestly can not believe it rode around there for five more laps — and literally, right here at the checkered flag, it blew up. Luck was on our side tonight, so we’ll definitely take it. Thanks so much to everyone, who supports our program and makes it possible. We’re excited to head to Bristol (Motor Speedway) for the next two weekends.”
Joseph made a clean sweep of the night by setting fast time in qualifying with a 14.988-second lap to lock into the pole position for the feature. Late in the race Joiner held a half-track advantage when his right-rear tire began going flat. He was able to limp his car home to the victory, which came over Billy Franklin, Ryan Crane, Austin Franklin, and Ryan Wilson.
Friday’s opening round of the Bash at the Beach fell victim to rain.
Full event results are available at www.SASdirt.com .
The team now turns their attention to the second annual Karl Kustoms Bristol Dirt Nationals. The event which spans this weekend and next, includes four $50,000-to-win Super Late Model events. The first two XR Super Series Super Late Model programs will be held this Friday and Saturday.
