Dylan Ames Registers Runner-Up Finish at Winterfest

Harvest, Alabama (02/24/16) – Dylan Ames lifted the lid on his 2016 season behind the wheel of his Ames Land & Cattle Company #77 Capital Race Car/Jay D ickens Racing Engine Super Late Model on Saturday afternoon during the Winterfest at Winchester Speedway, where he registered a runner-up finish.

Dylan Ames made the trip to Winchester Speedway (Winchester, Tennessee) on Saturday debuting his brand-new #77 Capital Race Car in the unsanctioned WinterFest. After registering the 4th fastest time in the 31-car field in qualifying, Ames secured the 4th-starting spot for the $3,000-to-win, main event.

As the race went green, Dylan quickly worked his way into the 2nd spot. He looked to be a contender for the win before heavy contact from another competitor caused him to slip back a few spots. Throughout the remainder of the 40-lap event he rebounded to finish in the runner-up position behind race winner, John Owenby. Riley Hickman, Jason Hiett, and David Brannon rounded out the top five.

“This new Capital Race Car was awesome from the moment we unloaded it,” noted Ames. “It’s unfortunate that we basically got run over by another driver early there in the feature because I truly believe we had the car to beat. It goes that way sometimes though, so we’ll just look ahead to the next race.”
