JOE MARTIN SWEEPS THE NIGHT AT OUTLAW FOR 1ST HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL FLYNN’S TIRE TOUR WIN OF 2023; SETS NTR IN QUALIFYING, WINS HIS HEAT, DASH & $3,000 “GARY MONTGOMERY MEMORIAL” FEATURE

By Mike Leone May 26, 2023

(Dundee, NY)...After two weeks off, the Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Late Model Flynn’s Tire Touring Series returned to action on Friday night at Outlaw Speedway kicking off a three-race weekend over the Memorial Day holiday. The event was the first Flynn’s Tire Tour event in four years at the fast Dundee, NY facility following a COVID-19 cancellation in 2020 and rain outs each of the past two years. It was the fourth annual “Gary Montgomery Memorial”, which honored a man that was synonymous with racing all over the Upstate New York State Region. After a long and courageous battle with cancer, Montgomery passed away in November 2016.

Joe Martin certainly hadn’t gotten off to the start of the season that he had hoped for. Martin entered 2023 finishing runner-up in Flynn’s Tire Touring Series points each of the last three seasons, but had only been able to record two top five finishes in the first six races. That changed after a clean sweep of the night at Outlaw. Martin set a new track record in qualifying, won his FK Rod Ends heat race, won the Sunoco Dash, and then led every lap of the 30-lap feature holding off a valiant effort by Mike Wonderling for the $3,000 feature victory. It could be a good omen for Martin as each of the first three winners of the “Gary Montgomery Memorial” have gone on to win the Tour title!

$6000+ HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL WEEKEND SWEEP FOR JEREMY WONDERLING AS SUNDAY'S VICTORY IS HIS 1ST AT ERIEZ IN FLYNN'S TIRE TOURING SERIES COMPETITION

By Mike Leone May 14, 2023

(Erie, PA)...The Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Series presented by Born2Run Lubricants opened the 2023 season at Eriez Speedway on a chilly Sunday evening in the first of two appearances for the Flynn's Tire Touring Series at the northwest Pennsylvania dirt track owned by the Alexander Family. A solid field of 37 cars turned out for the Mother's Day special with six new cars that didn't compete on Saturday at Stateline bringing the two-night car count total to 48 competitors.

Last September 23-24 at Genesee Speedway, Jeremy Wonderling swept the weekend for more than $6,000 during his four-race Flynn's Tire Touring Series win streak. On Sunday night, Wonderling capped off another $6,000+ weekend sweep leading from green-to-checkered for his first career Touring Series victory at Eriez, which came one night after his fourth "Bill Law Memorial" win in six tries at Stateline Speedway.

JEREMY WONDERLING BECOMES A 4-TIME WINNER OF THE “BILL LAW MEMORIAL” IN 6 TRIES AT STATELINE FOR HIS 1ST HOVIS RUSH LATE MODEL FLYNN’S TIRE TOUR WIN OF 2023

By Mike Leone May 13, 2023

(Busti, NY)...After a month off following a successful 3C Graphix “Battle of the Bay” Speedweek, the Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Series presented by Born2Run Lubricants headed north to Stateline Speedway for Flynn’s Tire Touring Series race #5 of the 2023 season. The event paid tribute to the late Law, who had the first Crate Late Model in the Northeast more than 16 years ago. Law was a huge supporter of racing in the region and helped kick-start the racing career of his grandson, Kyle Murray, who currently competes in a RUSH Late Model. The 42 cars on hand missed the all-time record high car count at Stateline by just one, which occurred in the 2021 event.

Jeremy Wonderling has taken quite the liking to the “Bill Law Memorial”. Wonderling started third, passed Joe Martin on lap 11 in lapped traffic, and pulled away late to capture the event win for the fourth time in six tries! Wonderling’s first Flynn’s Tire Tour win of the season propelled the three-time champion into the points lead for the first time since his last championship in 2020. The 30-lap event went caution-free in 9:23.661.

By Mike Leone April 15, 2023

(Winchester, VA)...The Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Series presented by Born2Run Lubricants headed to Winchester Speedway on Saturday as 42 cars were on hand for the final night of the fifth annual “Battle of the Bay” Speedweek presented by 3C Graphix. Several rain showers throughout the afternoon and early evening tried to put a damper on the event, but track owner Greg Gunter pushed on and had the track ready to go about four after the scheduled start time. Fifteen new cars on Saturday night brought the total count to 61 different cars from seven states plus Ontario, Canada that competed in Speedweek. It was the first time since the inaugural Speedweek that all four nights were completed. Winchester has completed their Speedweek event all five years with 41 or more cars.

Charlie Sandercock has won Flynn’s Tire Touring Series events in two Canadian provinces, but had never won one across the border in the United States. That changed on Saturday night as Sandercock passed Bryce Davis on lap four and survived several restarts throughout the 30-lap event to become the first Canadian to ever win a feature in the 88 years at the historic Winchester Speedway! Sandercock’s fourth career Tour victory at four different speedways was worth $3,000; meanwhile, after mechanical gremlins in his heat race, Kyle Hardy charged from 23rd to third to earn his second $1,000 3C Graphix “Battle of the Bay” Speedweek title in three years!

Four new drivers brought the number to 46 different competitors in the first three nights of Speedweek.

Mid-Atlantic Late Model standout Kyle Hardy celebrated career win #100 after a charge from the seventh starting spot taking the lead on lap 12 from Trevor Collins and then kept him at bay throughout the remainder of the 30-lap feature. Hardy’s $3,000 victory was his second in three nights on the “Battle of the Bay” Speedweek and five for his career tying him with Logan Roberson for most all-time. The win also upped Hardy’s all-time win total to 10 on the Flynn’s Tire Touring Series for the 2021 champion.
