HEAT RACE RESULTS

Connor would roll off from the 3rd starting position in his 8-lap heat race at The Dirt Track at Charlotte against some of the best 358 Small Blocks in the division!
He would hold strong in 3rd until he got a little too high on the track with 3 laps to go. (No top yet, Kid Cushion! 😉😂) That little slip would cost him a position, dropping him back to 4th.

Connor would hang on to bring the 711X home with a 4th-place finish!
ALL cars transfer to tomorrow's feature!

Another race in the books as Connor continues getting comfortable behind the wheel of his 358 Small Block Modified!

Thank you to everyone who made this possible and supports us!
Stay tuned for more updates from Charlotte tomorrow as tomorrow is Feature Saturday!

🏁 15-Lap Championship Feature:

Congratulations Billy Dunn on your win!

Connor rolled off from the 10th starting position for tonight's 15-lap Championship Feature and wasted no time getting to work! By lap 4, he had worked his way up to the 6th position before slipping back a spot to bring home a 7th-place finish!
