Riley Hickman Takes 2016 Win Tally to 17; Gobbler Next

Cleveland, Tennessee (11/16/16) – Riley Hickman increased his 2016-win tally to 17 on Saturday night with a triumph at Senoia Raceway in his Hickman Manufacturing #R1 CVR Crate Late Model.

“Our Crate Late Model was good from the time that we unloaded it, and it ran flawlessly in the feature,” said Hickman. “We had a real good car in the Super Late Model class too, but just got crossed-up on a restart there late in the feature. Otherwise we would’ve had a Top-5 run and maybe even a podium finish.”

On Friday night Riley Hickman visited Senoia Raceway (Senoia, Georgia) competing in two separate divisions for the opening round of the Showdown at Senoia. With 34 Super Late Models registered for the Southern Nationals Bonus Series sanctioned event, Hickman followed up the 2nd fastest time in his qualifying group with a heat race victory.

Rolling off 4th for the $10,000-to-win A-Main, Riley was battling in a podium spot until getting spun by another competitor. He rejoined the tail of the field before rebounding to a 9th-place finish when the checkers flew.
In the Crate Late Model division, Riley Hickman earned the outside-front-row starting spot for the feature via preliminary action. He grabbed the lead early in the event and would go on to reel in his 17th victory of the season.

This weekend, November 18-19 will take Hickman Motorsports to Boyd’s Speedway (Ringgold, Georgia) to compete in the annual Gobbler. The event is headlined by a $10,000-to-win program that will be sanctioned by the Southern Nationals Bonus Series. Riley will also compete in the $2,500-to-win Crate Late Model event.
