William Thomas Tames Talladega for $3,500 Win
Phenix City, Alabama (05/08/12) - William Thomas piloted his #22 Zaxby's Extreme Power Sports/Barry Wright Super Late Model to the $3,500 victory on Saturday night at Talladega Short Track (Eastaboga, Alabama).
Saturday night found the team in action at Talladega Short Track (Eastaboga, Alabama) with the Southern All Stars Super Late Model tour. With a $3,500 check on the line thirty-four competitors took part in the program. After arriving at the track late Thomas qualified fastest overall to earn the pole position for the feature event with Brandon Kinzer joining him on the front row. Thomas grabbed the lead at the drop of the green flag and went on to lead every lap on his way to the win, which came over Jake Knowles, Brandon Kinzer, Todd Morrow, and Riley Hickman. The win was his first Super Late Model triumph of the 2012 campaign and his third win overall. Full results are available at www.SouthernAllStarsRacingSeries.com .
On Friday night William went into action with the Southern Regional Racing Series (SRRS) Super Late Model tour at Boyds Speedway (Ringgold, Georgia) in a $3,000-to-win event. Twenty-seven entries registered for action as Thomas piloted the #A19 Austin Trucking entry. He started his night by qualifying third overall, but with a loaded group he was only third fastest in his group. With only the top two cars locking into the feature he was forced to run a b-main, where he finished second to lock into the tenth starting spot for the 50 lap feature. During the course of the feature he would fail to make up much ground as he crossed the finish line in the 12th position. Full results are available at www.SouthernRegionalRacingSeries.com .
This Saturday the team will go for another win as they travel to Cleveland Speedway (Cleveland, Tennessee) for the 35th Annual Tennessee Memorial Race. The program will be sanctioned by the Southern All Stars Racing Series and will be headlined by a $3,500-to-win/$300-to-start feature. Full results are available at www.SouthernAllStarsRacingSeries.com.
