Chris Madden Picks the Cotton at Magnolia Motor Speedway

Columbus, Mississippi (09/24/16) – Chris Madden added his name to an elite group on Saturday night by taking the $20,000 top prize in the 2016 running of the Magnolia State Cotton Pickin’ 100 presented by Country Pleasin’ Sausage at Magnolia Motor Speedway.

“I knew we had a really good hot rod tonight, and I just had to bide my time early,” said Madden. “Once we got to the lead our car just kept getting better, and we were able to get the win.”

Moments after picking the ceremonious cotton in victory lane Madden concluded by saying, “It means a lot to win this race in only our second time to come here. We’ll take this $20,000 tonight and hopefully win one at East Alabama Motor Speedway on the way home tomorrow. There’s so many sponsors that help make this possible, and I want to thank them all for getting me to victory lane tonight.”

Shane Clanton and Garrett Alberson brought the field to the green flag for the 100-lap affair. Clanton shot to the lead as the race went green with Kyle Bronson, Alberson, and Jack Sullivan in tow.

By lap 2 Sullivan moved up to the runner-up position as he set his sights on Clanton.

The first of five cautions in the finale fell on lap 7 for Brandon Overton, who slowed with mechanical issues. He would duck into the pits before rejoining the tail of the field.

The restart found the front runners dicing things up as Clanton continued to set the pace.

Lapped traffic became a factor on lap 20 as Jack Sullivan kept Clanton within striking distance for the lead. Lap 25 found Sullivan and Clanton going door-to-door for the top spot. Sullivan would pull alongside of Clanton on multiple occasions but was unable to complete the pass.

A lap 28 restart saw 12th-starting Chris Madden on the move as he raced into the 3rd position behind Clanton and Sullivan. Action got exciting at the front of the pack over the next several laps with Sullivan initially challenging Clanton for the lead before Madden overtook Sullivan on lap 34.

Following a lap 35 caution Kyle Bronson catapulted into the 2nd position and four laps later he executed a crossover move on Shane Clanton to take the lead entering turn 1.

Bronson held the lead until lap 52, when Chris Madden took control at the front of the pack. Madden would become the third and final leader of the event.

Madden quickly extended his advantage at the front of the field, and not even a caution with just fourteen laps remaining could keep him out of victory lane at the 3/8-mile oval. He crossed the finish line 1.434 seconds ahead of his nearest challenger.

10th-starting Dale McDowell moved into the 2nd spot late in the race with Mississippi’s David Breazeale scoring a career-best 3rd place finish in the crown jewel. Billy Moyer and Morgan Bagley completed the Top 5 finishers.

Heath Beard only led one lap but it was the most important one in the Factory Stock feature. Logan Lux led from the drop of the green flag, but a late-race caution set up a two-lap dash to the checkers. Heading down the backstretch on the final lap Heath Beard shot past for the lead with Jason Byrd in tow. Beard led the final lap to take the victory over Byrd, Lux, Lewis and Carl Kilgore.

The NeSmith Chevrolet Crate Late Model feature featured fast and furious action in the opening laps. Scott Dedwylder jumped to the lead from the pole position and led the first two laps before Kyle Bronson took control on lap 2, when Dedwylder slipped high exiting turn 4.

Bronson, Justin McRee, and Dedwylder battled for the top spot over the next several laps. McCree Led lap 13 with a slider but Bronson took over entering turn 1. Bad luck bit McRee on lap 14, when contact with an infield tire ripped part of the nose off his car and allowed Dedwylder to retake the runner-up spot. McRee would continue with noticeable front-end damage.

Dedwylder took the lead from Bronson just past the halfway mark before Bronson reclaimed the lead on lap 35. Hunter Carroll moved up to 2nd in the closing laps but couldn’t catch Bronson as the Brandon, Florida driver took the $3,000 top prize. Carroll, Jeremy Shaw, Scott Dedwylder, and Josh Banes completed the Top 5 finishers.

The Mississippi Street Stock Series feature went caution, and 15-year-old Spencer Hughes wired the field in the caution-free event to claim the $2,000 victory. Rodney Wing, Johnny Stokes, Lee Ray, and Michael Blade completed the Top 5 finishers.

Magnolia Motor Speedway will return to action on October 6-8 with the annual Fall 40, which will be highlighted by a $5,000-to-win affair. For more information, please visit www.MagnoliaDirt.com .

Over 160 Entries Take Part in Preliminary Action

Columbus, Mississippi (09/22/16) – On Friday evening over 160 race cars participated in preliminary action for 2016 edition of the Magnolia State Cotton Pickin’ 100 presented by Country Pleasin’ Sausage.

With 62 Super Late Models signed in for competition and a total of 65 entries in the division for the weekend, Shane Clanton received a $100 bonus from George Sisson, “The Outlaw,” for topping Super Late Model qualifying with a 13.427 second lap. Garrett Alberson topped his group with a 13.713 second lap around the 3/8-mile oval.

Shane Clanton outdueled Billy Moyer in lapped traffic to win Super Late Model Heat Race #1 with David Breazeale outrunning a hard-charging Josh Putnam for the third and final, transfer spot.

Heat Race #2 found Florida’s Kyle Bronson setting sail at the drop of the green flag and never looking back. Chandler Petty ran 2nd early, while Billy Moyer Jr. and Morgan Bagley waged a great battle for the final transfer spot for the first half of the race before Moyer Jr. got over the cushion in turn 1 on lap 9 and slammed the wall. The lap-9 restart found Bagley taking the runner-up position, and he would finish there behind Bronson with Petty taking the final transfer spot.

Talented, young racers Austin Smith and Timothy Culp brought the field to the green flag in Heat Race #3. Austin Smith led early with Timothy Culp in the second spot. Dylan Ames overtook Kyle Beard for the third position with some contact near the race’s midway point. In the closing laps Culp and Ames caught Smith with Culp taking the lead with two laps to go on his way to the win. Culp was followed across the finish line by Smith and Ames.

Heat race #4 found Garrett Alberson dominating early before Mike Marlar and Wendell Wallace closed the gap in the final five laps. The leaders caught heavy lapped traffic with 3 circuits remaining. Marlar pressured Alberson to the checkered flag with Alberson taking the narrow win over Marlar and Wallace.

Heat race #5 found Jack Sullivan taking advantage of a Dale McDowell bobble in turns 1 and 2 on the fourth circuit to take the lead. Sullivan dominated the rest of the heat with McDowell in second. Eric Wells survived a last-lap slider from Hunter Rasdon to take the final transfer spot.

The final heat race of the night saw Georgia’s Brandon Overton wire in the field in the 15-lap affair with Chris Madden finishing in the second spot. Jesse Stovall and Super Late Model rookie, Michael Arnold had a spirited battle for the third spot early in the race before Stovall took sole possession of the final transfer spot.

Forty-eight NeSmith Chevrolet Crate Late Models entered the program and fast qualifier Scott Dedwylder won the first heat race with Tyler Burgess, Kyle Bronson, and Jeremy Shaw also scoring heat race wins.

Corinth, Mississippi’s Ronald Dunn set fast and won the first heat race with the Mississippi Street Stock Series. 15-year-old Spencer Hughes and Rodney Wing won the other two heats. Thirty-one entries took part in preliminary action for the division.

Magnolia State Cotton Pickin’ 100 Moves to September

Columbus, Mississippi (05/25/16) – The 2016 edition of the Magnolia State Cotton Pickin’ 100 at Magnolia Motor Speedway is moving from early October to September 22-24.

“For whatever reason it just seems like this year that everybody in the Dirt Late Model world wants to have a big show the weekend of October 7-8, so we decided to take the show to a new weekend,” said Magnolia Motor Speedway promoter, Johnny Stokes. “The September 22-24 weekend looks much more friendly for racers and fans, especially in the South where there a ton of races that weekend. Plus the Mississippi State University football team will be playing on the road that weekend, so that frees up the hotels in the area that weekend, which is always a big challenge.”

The mega event, which is headlined by a $20,000-to-win/$1,200-to-start event for Super Late Models, will now open on Thursday, September 22 with an open practice session. Friday evening will find qualifying and heat races contested before Saturday night plays host to B-Mains and the 100 lap finale atop the “Black Ice” at the state-of-the-art, 3/8-mile oval. The purse for the Super Late Model portion of the event alone exceeds $70,000.

Also taking center stage throughout the weekend at the event will be the Mississippi Street Stock Series battling for $2,000-to-win, the NeSmith Weekly Late Models racing for $3,000-to-win, and Factory Stocks will also race on Saturday night.

More details will be released in the coming weeks.

With the move of the Magnolia State Cotton Pickin’ 100, there’s also been a move of the 2nd Annual Fall 40 Street Stock Championship. The event originally slated for September 22-24 at Magnolia Motor Speedway will now be held October 6-8.

“I honestly think that moving the 2nd Annual Fall 40 Street Stock Championship to October will help that event as several tracks will be finished racing for the year by then,” noted Stokes. “That event has become one of my favorite races because there’s so much parity in the Street Stock class and the racing is just awesome. I hope fans will make plans to attend it as well.”

The 2nd Annual Fall 40 Street Stock Championship includes a $5,000-to-win/$400-to-start finale for the Street Stock division.

This Sunday, May 29 Magnolia Motor Speedway will host a program that features the NeSmith Late Model National Touring Series battling for $2,000-To-Win PLUS the RockAuto.Com Super Late Models, NeSmith Street Stocks, 602 Late Model Stocks and Factory Stocks will be action as well. 

On Sunday, May 29 the pit gate opens at 3pm with the grandstand gates opening at 5pm.  The driver’s meeting is slated for 6:30pm with racing action at 7:30pm. Grandstand Admission is $15.00 for Adults.

Veterans and Active Military will receive a $5.00 discount in grandstands only. Kids 10 and under are Free.  Pit Admission is $35.00 for Adults, Kids 6-10 $25.00 and Kids 5 and under Free.
