Cla Knight Finishes 5th at Modoc; Cherokee Next

North Augusta, South Carolina (03/21/17) – North Augusta, South Carolina's Cla Knight powered his Augusta Aquatics #42 E-Z-GO Golf Carts Longhorn Crate Late Model to a Top-5 finish in Saturday night’s $5,000-to-win Modoc 100.

“We had a really good car from the time we unloaded,” said Knight. “In fact, I think we had an even better car than we showed in the feature, but passing was kind of difficult. Even at that, with the struggles we’ve had early in the year, I’m definitely pleased with our performance. We’ll head onto Cherokee and try to get our first win of the season.”

With 33 entries on hand for the 9th annual Modoc 100 at Modoc Raceway (Modoc, South Carolina), Cla qualified fourth fastest overall in time trials to lock into the 6th-starting spot for the 50 lap finale. He jumped to the 5th position on the opening circuit. From that point the bottom groove would be dominant, and Knight rode in line to a 5th-place finish.

Next on tap for the team is a trip to Cherokee Speedway (Gaffney, South Carolina) this weekend for the Bill Hendren Memorial. The $5,000-to-win event will be sanctioned by the South Eastern Crate Association (SECA). For more information on the event, please visit www.CherokeeSpeedwaySC.com .
