Tyler Millwood Scores Top 5 at VMS; Takes ULTIMATE Point Lead

Kingston, Georgia (06/06/17) – Tyler Millwood made the trek to Virginia Motor Speedway on Saturday night to compete in the annual USA 100 in his Millwood Plumbing #31 Longhorn Chassis Super Late Model. The night would produce a Top-5 finish, and even better, he would take over the point’s lead with the tour.

Following the ULTIMATE Super Late Model Series, Tyler Millwood headed to Virginia Motor Speedway (Jamaica, Virginia) on Saturday night for the USA 100. With 23 cars on hand, Millwood followed up the second fastest time in his group – behind Dale McDowell – with a 3rd-place finish in his heat race.

Earning the 9th-starting spot for the $20,000-to-win A-Main, Tyler advanced through the field five spots, reeling in a 4th-place finish behind Scott Bloomquist, Earl Pearson Jr., and Dale McDowell with Kenny Moreland coming in 5th.

“Apart from us getting the win, I don’t think Saturday night could’ve gone much better,” Millwood noted. “We set out this year with the hopes of winning the Rookie of the Year title and getting a Top-3 finish in the points. To be leading both right now is just awesome. There’s still a long way to go in this season, but I couldn’t be more proud of how our team is performing.”

Tyler has taken over the lead in the ULTIMATE Series point standings by 8 markers. For full results from the event plus the latest series standings, please visit www.ULTIMATESupers.com .
