Chuck Bowie Scores Pro Late Model Victory at Virginia Motor Speedway; Lipscombe, Harris, and Maxey also Visit Victory Lane

Jamaica, VA – Chuck Bowie of Welcome, MD drove a perfect race, taking the lead on lap three from leader Vaughan Haywood and then held off Defending Champion Justin Williams to score his career first Victory Lap Pro Late Model victory at Virginia Motor Speedway. On the drop of the green flag, Bowie followed Haywood into second. Bowie got his chance to grab the lead with an inside move on Haywood in turn three on lap three. Once out front, Bowie would work traffic to perfection to keep Williams behind him in second. Several cautions were the only time Williams would have a chance to take the top spot from Bowie. “It wasn’t as easy as it looked; when you have Justin Williams behind you, you have to be smooth. I can’t thank my wife enough for giving me an amazing car tonight; we have been close this year, and to finally get the win is amazing. Especially with the caliber of talent, we have here,” commented winner Chuck Bowie in WhosYourDriver.org victory lane. Rounding out the top five were Justin Williams, Ray Love Jr., Matt Glanden, and Jeremy Pilkerton. In other action, Davis Lipscombe of Mechanicsville, VA, made it two in a row in the Truckin Thunder Sportsman division, taking the lead from fast qualifier Kacey Gordon of Fredericksburg, VA, on lap 11 and go on to the win.

And in the Collision One Limited Stock Cars, Brian Maxey of Fredericksburg, VA, grabbed the lead from Ryan Hutchens on lap ten and then went on to his second win in a row. Jeff Solinger and Josh Harris led the Budweiser Modifieds to the green flag, with Harris leading the first lapped, followed by Brandon Galloway. Teammates Harris and Galloway would pull away from the field with Solinger, Chase Butler, defending champion Hunter McClendon, and Lance Grady, all in the battle for third. By lap 15, Grady had closed to within a couple of car lengths. On lap 16, Harris would make contact with a lapped car but kept his advantage over Grady. With 2 to go, Grady would make one last push to grab the top spot, but Harris was up to the task and went on to score the win. Rounding out the top five were Grady, Solinger, Butler, and Bret Hamilton. Davis Lipscombe of Mechanicsville, VA, has returned to the Truckin Thunder Sportsman division with a vengeance. After convincingly taking the week one win and having to wait an extra week due to a rainout, he returned and scored yet another convincing win. Lipscombe would work his way to the front by lap 8. Lipscombe went to work on Kacey Gordon for second; the two would get together on the front stretch with Gordon holding the spot. Ahead of them, leader Tyler Shipp would get out of shape out of turn 2, allowing Gordon to take the lead with Lipscombe following to second. As the two raced down the backstretch, they split a slower car with Lipscombe using the high side to take the lead. Once out front Lipscombe would stretch out his lead and go on to the win. Rounding the top five were Kacey Gordon, Tyler Shipp, Steve Causey, and Tim Shelton. Brian Maxey took over the top spot from Ryan Hutchens on lap ten after making several attempts. Once out front, Maxey worked traffic to perfection to go on to take his second win in a row. Rounding out the top five were Hutchens, Cory Bradley, Jay Seward, and Brandon Bowler.
