Tyler Millwood
Scores "Jack Starrette Memorial" Victory At Modoc
Modoc, South Carolina (4/28/18) - 2017 Ultimate
Super Late Model Series Champion Tyler Millwood from
Kingston, Georgia held off a late race charge from
Ross Bailes to capture the 8th Annual "Jack
Starrette Memorial" Race at the Modoc Raceway in
McCormick County community along the Savannah Lakes
Region of South Carolina. Millwood had never
experienced victory but took the checkered after
surviving a lap 45 tangle after racing with Ross
Bailes in lapped traffic. Millwood lost a portion of
his nosepiece which found its way onto the
backstretch forcing a caution, negating the pass
from Ross Bailes who led entering the third turn.
However, the caution put Millwood back in front,
after a near disaster where he crashed into spinning
cars of Jeff Smith and David Yandle after the
caution had been waved. Brett Hamm was among the
early hard chargers who while challenging for the
lead made hard contact with a barrier tire along the
inside of the racing surface, which caused major
damage to the front of the #18, ending his bid for
his second Modoc win.
Cla Knight was the Parks Heating and Cooling Fastest
Qualifier and was among the top five for most of the
event.
Michael Brown had problems in qualifying and started
on the final row for the feature. He would race his
way into the 10th position earning the Speed51.com
Hard Charger of the Race and the $51 bonus for his
efforts. Brown continues to lead the Carolina Clash
point standings now over Ross Bailes, who with a
strong second place finish sits in second.
