Billy Moyer Jr. Breaks Through with CCSDS Triumph at Crawford County

Van Buren, AR (05/12/12) – 2009 Series Champion, Billy Moyer Jr., ended his 2012 winless streak by claiming the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) feature win on Saturday night at Crawford County Speedway (Van Buren, Arkansas).

After winning the first heat race Moyer Jr. was the New Vision Graphics Pole Qualifier for the 35 lap, $2,000-to-win event.  He was joined on the front row by Jack Sullivan, and as the green flag waved on the event Moyer Jr. bolted to the top spot with Sullivan, Jon Kirby, Brandon Smith, and Kyle Beard in pursuit.  With a bottom-groove, dominant track passing would be difficult, and despite four cautions to regroup the field nobody would have anything for the leader, Moyer Jr. 

Jack Sullivan held down the second position until a tight race car allowed Kirby to slip by for the spot with a couple of laps remaining.  Billy Moyer Jr. claimed the win over Kirby, Sullivan, Smith, and Beard.  Moyer Jr. now has eight career wins on the CCSDS tour, and is tied for second on the series all-time win list with Bill Frye.  Wallace leads the record books with twelve, career triumphs.

GRT Race Cars Heat Race #1 was won by Billy Moyer Jr. with Jack Sullivan winning NEA Super Gas/Killer Coatings Heat Race #2 and RiceTec Heat Race #3 being claimed by Kyle Beard.

Johnny Virden earned the Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger Award for passing five cars in the feature event.  The Quarter Master Hard Luck Award went to Keith Lawson, who saw a top ten run come to an end after a lap 27 tangle with lap traffic.

The COMP Cams Super Dirt Series now takes off the rest of May before resuming the 2012 campaign on Saturday, June 2nd at Riverside International Speedway (West Memphis, Arkansas) in the $2,000-to-win/$400-to-start, Bartlett Hardwood Floor Service 35.  For more information on the event, please visit www.RiversideInternationalSpeedway.com.

Jesse Stovall Claims COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Checkers at Thunderbird

Muskogee, Oklahoma (05/11/12) – The COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) Super Late Model invaded the historic, 1/2 mile oval at Thunderbird Speedway (Muskogee, Oklahoma) on Friday night, and it was Jesse Stovall, who topped a field of 31 competitors to register the $2,000 victory.

Despite threatening conditions the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series was able to host its sixth event of the 2012 season, and by the time that the checkered flag dropped, the tour had seen its fifth different winner of the year.

Via preliminary action Jesse Stovall earned the New Vision Graphics Pole Position for the 30 lap feature with Terry Phillips joining him on the front row. As the race went green Phillips would jump to the lead over Stovall with Phillips leading the first lap before Stovall inched ahead to lead the second lap. By lap three Phillips was back to the lead, when the caution flew for Johnny Virden, Dewaine Hottinger, and Larry Campbell, who all tangled.

On the ensuing restart Phillips would motor back to the lead with Stovall, Ronny Lee Hollingsworth, Justin Asplin, and Curtis Cook in pursuit. Phillips would maintain the top spot until a series of cautions slowed the action on lap 23. The first caution saw Jon Kirby spinning as he collected Kyle Beard. The second caution would see third running Ronny Lee Hollingsworth slow with mechanical issues, ending his night.

When the green flag flew again it would be leader, Terry Phillips, who would experience his own mechanical issues as he slowed to the infield, allowing Stovall to inherit the lead. Jesse Stovall went on to lead the last six laps on his way to his first CCSDS tour win of 2012 and the fifth of his career. He was followed across the finish line by Justin Asplin, Curtis Cook, Robert Baker, and Jon Mitchell

GRT Race Cars Heat Race #1 was won by Ronny Lee Hollingsworth, while Jesse Stovall won NEA Super Gas/Killer Coatings Heat Race #2. RiceTec Heat Race #3 was claimed by Curtis Cook, while Terry Phillips was the victor in Racing Head Service Heat Race #4.

The Boston's Sports Bar & Restaurant B-mains were won by Jack Sullivan and RC Whitwell. Jack Sullivan earned the Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger Award for passing ten cars in the feature event. The Quarter Master Hard Luck Award went to Larry Campbell for being an innocent victim of the lap 2 caution.

On Saturday night, May 12th the action moves to Crawford County Speedway (Van Buren, Arkansas) for a $2,000-to-win/$400-to-start event. A full complement of local divisions will also be on the card with racing action slated for 7:30pm. For more information on the event please visit www.CrawfordCountySpeedway.net .

Morgan Bagley Wires COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Foes

Vivian, Louisiana (05/05/12) – Morgan Bagley led flag-to-flag in Saturday night's caution free, COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) Super Late Model feature at Ark-La-Tex Speedway (Vivian, Louisiana) to claim his third career triumph with the tour to the tune of $2,000.

A stacked, regional field of 36 competitors were on hand for the tour's only appearance at the 1/4 mile oval in 2012. Rob Litton led the way in preliminary action by advancing from his ninth starting position to claim his heat race win, which locked him into the JFR Graphics Pole Position for the 35 lap feature. He was joined on the front row by Morgan Bagley, and when the green flag dropped it was Bagley, who took command of the lead with Litton in pursuit.

While Bagley slowly inched away from the pack a great battle raged behind him for the second spot as Litton, Kyle Cummings, and Chris Wall diced for position. As that trio battled for the runner-up spot around the racy oval, a driver on the move was 12th starting Billy Moyer Jr, who found himself into the top five by the race's midway point. He would go on to race his way into the second spot, but would be unable to catch the leader as Morgan Bagley went on to claim the win. He was followed across the line by Moyer Jr., Cummings, Wall, and Litton.

GRT Race Cars Heat Race #1 was won by Morgan Bagley with Trey Beene winning NEA Super Gas/Killer Coatings Heat Race #2. RiceTec Heat Race #3 saw Rob Litton charge from his ninth starting position to claim the victory, while Chris Wall won Racing Head Service Heat Race #4.

The Boston's Sports Bar & Restaurants b-mains were won by Kevin Sitton and Johnny Virden.

The Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger was Billy Moyer Jr., who advanced ten spots to a 2nd place finish in the main event, and Kyle Beard received the Quarter Master Hard Luck Award after seeing his powerplant expire in heat race action, ending his night early.

Next weekend, May 11th-12th, the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series thunders into Thunderbird Speedway (Muskogee, Oklahoma) on Friday night before moving to Crawford County Speedway (Van Buren, Arkansas) on Saturday evening.

Robert Baker No Rookie in COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Victory

Nashville, Arkansas (04/14/12) – The COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) hosted a $2,000-to-win event at Diamond Park Speedway (Nashville, Arkansas) on Saturday night, and for the second time in the early part of the season a rookie candidate claimed the win as Robert Baker scored the victory.

Twenty-four cars took part in the event in front of a capacity crowd, and it was Minden, Louisiana's Jeff Chandler, who set on the pole for the main event with defending, series' champion, Brandon Smith, joining him on the front row.

Chandler broke to the lead at the drop of the green flag in the caution-plagued event, and would quickly build solid leads.  While he was on cruise control early, a great battle waged behind him for the second spot between Smith, RC Whitwell, and Larry Campbell.  Meanwhile, Robert Baker, who started 15th on the grid was the man on the move.  He was into the top ten just a few laps into the race, and by the time the caution flag flew on lap 30 he was into the top three. 

On the ensuing restart Baker would blast the cushion to take the lead from Chandler, who saw his tires seal over during the lengthy caution.  The Bryant, Arkansas' driver, Baker, drove away from the pack over the last five laps to claim the win, which came over Jeff Chandler, Brandon Smith, Kyle Beard, and Trey Beene

GRT Heat Race #1 was won by Brandon Smith with RC Whitwell winning NEA Super Gas/Killer Coatings Heat Race #2, while Jeff Chandler won Racing Head Service Heat Race #3.

The Boston's Sports Bar & Restaurants b-main was topped by Robert Baker.

The Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger was Kyle Beard, who advanced fifteen spots to a 4th place finish after taking a provisional in the main event to start 19th.

The scariest moment of the event came on lap 28 of the feature, when Clay Fisher received contact that sent hit flying off the backstretch through the corner of a building, and into the base of the pit grandstands.  Clay nor any spectators were injured, but his car was totaled.  For the bad luck he received the Quarter Master Hard Luck award.

The tour will be in action again next weekend April 20th-21st, with another doubleheader in the Razorback state.  On Friday, April 13th a $2,000-to-win/$300-to-start event will be held at Beebe Speedway (Beebe, Arkansas) before moving onto Riverside International Speedway (West Memphis, Arkansas) on Saturday, April 21st for the tour's debut at the facility.  For more information on the events, please visit www.BeebeSpeedway.net and www.RiversideInternationalSpeedway.com .

Billy Moyer Dominates COMP Cams Super Dirt Series at Batesville


(Woody Hampton Photo)

Batesville, Arkansas (04/13/12) – Billy Moyer is a threat to win at any track in the nation, but when he enters an event at his home track, Batesville Motor Speedway (Locust Grove, Arkansas) he is more than an odds-on favorite.  On Friday evening he dominated the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) sanctioned event at the 3/8 mile oval by leading flag-to-flag to claim the victory in the $2,000-to-win event.

Twenty-nine Super Late Models entered the event, and after a dominating charge from last to first in his heat race Moyer earned the JFR Graphics Pole for the 30 lap feature.  He was joined on the front row by RC Whitwell and as the race went green the field flared two and three wide into turn one.  Before a lap could be completed the caution flag flew for Kuntz & Co. Rookie of the Year candidate, Chandler Petty, who jumped the cushion exiting turn two, making hard contact with the wall.

The field was lined up again for what would be the only restart of the night.  As the green flag flew it was Moyer, who bolted to the lead.  Over the course of the 30 lap feature he would drive away from the competition, lapping up to the seventh position on his way to his second CCSDS win a row.  He was followed across the finish line by RC Whitwell, Billy Moyer Jr., Robert Baker, and Brandon Smith.

GRT Heat Race #1 was won by Brian Ritchie with RC Whitwell winning NEA Super Gas/Killer Coatings Heat Race #2.  RiceTec Heat Race #3 saw Billy Moyer victorious, while Robert Baker won Racing Head Service Heat Race #4.
The Boston's Sports Bar & Restaurants b-mains were won by Johnny Virden and Todd Hall.

Johnny Virden was the recipient of the Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger Award after advancing from his 15th starting spot to a seventh place finish.

The Quarter Master Hard Luck Award went to Chandler Petty for his bad luck on the opening lap of the feature.

The COMP Cams Super Dirt Series will conclude their weekend on Saturday night with a $2,000 to win/$400 to start event at Diamond Park Speedway (Nashville, Arkansas).  For more information on the event, please visit www.DiamondParkSpeedway.com.

Billy Moyer Scores COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Win at I-30


Woody Hampton Photo

Little Rock, Arkansas (03/24/12) – Billy Moyer topped a field of 32 competitors to score his fifth career, COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) Super Late Model win on Saturday night in a $2,000-to-win event at I-30 Speedway (Little Rock, Arkansas).

In heat race action, Dirt Late Model Hall of Famer, Billy Moyer, stormed from his fifth starting spot to a second place finish to lock into the JFR Graphics Pole Position for the 35 lap feature.  He was joined on the front row by Clarksdale, Mississippi's Ross Camponovo.  After the completion of driver introductions track promoter, Tracey Clay, issued a challenge to either of the front row drivers to draw a card that would result in them starting on the third, fourth, or fifth row.  If either driver could win the challenge, they would get a $1,000 bonus, and just for taking the challenge, the driver would automatically get an extra $500.  While Billy Moyer pondered on the challenge before opting against it, Camponovo announced to an approving crowd that he would give it a shot.  He would pull the three card, and elected to start outside of row three, which moved Broken Bow, Oklahoma competitor, Gary Christian, up to the front row alongside Moyer.

As the green flag flew it was Moyer, who bolted to the lead with Christian, Morgan Bagley, Stacey Taylor, and Billy Moyer Jr. in tow.  While Moyer would jump out to a straightaway lead early in the event, Moyer Jr. would race into the second spot by lap seven.  Lap eight saw the leaders in heavy traffic, and the younger Moyer closed in to within three car lengths of his Father.  However, a few laps later the elder Moyer would begin to stretch his lead as Moyer Jr. settled into the second spot.

While the top spot was not in question, incredible racing raged in positions five through eleven as drivers battled three and even four wide through lap traffic.  Two drivers on the move were b-main winners, Kyle Beard and Ray Moore, who by the race's midway point had advanced into the top ten to battle with Jack Sullivan, Stacey Taylor, Clay Fisher, Ross Camponovo, and Jon Mitchell.

The race would go on to be caution free, and when the checkered flag fell it was Billy Moyer, who claimed the win over Billy Moyer Jr., Morgan Bagley, Gary Christian, and Jeff Chandler.

In victory lane Moyer had a moment of second thoughts about not taking the challenge.  He laughed, "We had a lot of experimental stuff on this car here tonight, and if I had known it was going to be this good, I just might have taken the challenge.  Either way it's been almost a decade since I've raced here, so it feels really good to pick up a win in front of the home state fans.

GRT Heat Race #1 was won by Gary Christian with Ross Camponovo winning NEA Super Gas/Killer Coatings Heat Race #2.  RiceTec Heat Race #3 saw Billy Moyer Jr. victorious, while Morgan Bagley won Racing Head Service Heat Race #4.

The Boston's Sports Bar & Restaurants b-mains were won by Kyle Beard and Ray Moore.

The Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger was Jack Sullivan, who advanced eight spots to a 6th place finish in the main event, and Clay Fisher received the Quarter Master Hard Luck award after seeing a top ten run in the feature go away with belt issues on his entry late in the race.

The tour will now take a two week break before returning to action on April 13th-14th, with a doubleheader in the Razorback state.  On Friday, April 13th a $2,000-to-win/$300-to-start event will be held at Batesville Motor Speedway (Locust Grove, Arkansas) before moving onto Diamond Park Speedway (Nashville, Arkansas) on Saturday, April 14th for the tour's debut at the facility.  For more information on the events, please visit www.BatesvilleMotorSpeedway.net and www.DiamondParkSpeedway.com .

Smith's fellow competitors were also recognized for their achievements including the top ten finishers in the final series' standings, which included runner-up, Kyle Beard, Jon Mitchell, Jon Kirby, Curtis Cook, Johnny Virden, Shane Harris, Ian Samuals, Dewaine Hottinger, and Keith Lawson.

Wendell Wallace Claims COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Finale


Wendell Wallace in Victory Lane at Riverside Speedway (Woody Hampton Photo)

West Memphis, Arkansas (10/08/11) – Wendell Wallace became the first two-time winner of the Bartlett Hardwood Floor Service Midsouth Dirt Track Championship by topping the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) event at Riverside International Speedway (West Memphis, Arkansas) on Saturday night.

Thirty-five Super Late Models, representing six states, entered the $2,000-to-win finale for the CCSDS on Saturday night at Riverside International Speedway, and it was Wallace, who despite not competing at the oval in over 20 years started the night by setting fast time around the 1/4 mile oval with a 14.612 second lap.

Heat race action would see Dewaine Kiefer and Tanner English earn front row starting spots for the 35 lap feature. However, before the green flag could ever drop English would retire pit side with a broken rocker arm, which moved Jon Kirby up to the outside front row. As the field took the green and went into turn one Jon Kirby would get sideways in front of the field resulting in a six car pileup, which caused blocked track and an ensuing red flag. Curtis Cook and Mike Carr would get the worst of the damage, seeing their nights come to an early end.

The next attempt at a start would be successful as Kiefer jumped to the top spot with Wallace and Hall in pursuit. Kiefer would lead the first three laps before Hall made a strong move exiting turn two to take the lead on the fourth circuit, but the caution flag would wave before a lap could be completed, and Kiefer was reinstated as the leader.

The ensuing double file restart would see Wallace charge the high-side of the track in turns one and two as he rocketed to the lead as the field completed lap four. Once out front Wallace would begin to creep away from the field as behind him drivers were on the move. As Kiefer and Hall continued to run second and third, respectively, Shane Harris had advanced from 13th to the fourth spot and Kyle Beard had advanced from 14th to the fifth spot by lap 10.

Lap 11 would see bad luck strike for the third-running, Hall as he spun entering turn one to bring out the caution. As the race went green again, Wallace would continue to drive away from the pack as the race enjoyed a long, green flag run. The caution wouldn't wave again until lap 28, when championship contender, Kyle Beard, saw his season of bad luck continue as a blown motor forced him to relinquish his third running position.

The green flag would wave for the final time after the Beard caution, and from that point it would be Wallace running away from the field to claim the $2,000 win over Shane Harris, Jamie Dacus (started 11th), Dewayne Kiefer, and Clay Fisher.

Brandon Smith overcame having to utilize a provisional to advance from the 19th starting spot to an 8th place finish. The performance secured him as the 2011 COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Champion. Kyle Beard, Jon MItchell, Jon Kirby, and Curtis Cook rounded out the top five in the final series' standings.

Rocket Chassis Heat Race #1 was won by Dewayne Kiefer with Todd Hall winning RacingJunk.com Heat Race #2. Woodco Inc. Heat Race #3 was topped by Tanner English, while Quarter Master Heat Race #4 was claimed by Jon Kirby

The Boston’s Sports Bars & Restaurants B-Mains were topped by Shane Harris, Kyle Beard, Mike Bilbro.

Shane Harris was the recipient of the Larry Shaw Race Cars Hard Charger Award after charging from his 13th starting spot to an 2nd place finish.

The Quarter Master Hard Luck Award went to Kyle Beard.

Mike Bilbro received a $600 bonus for being the top finishing Crate Late Model. The bonus money was posted by Huffman Motorsports, Matt Martin, Bobby Martin, and Tri State Truck & Trailer Repair.

The COMP Cams Super Dirt Series would like to thank all of the sponsors, racers, and fans, who supported the tour in 2011, and the series now looks ahead to the 2012 season. Stay tuned into www.COMPDirt.com for the latest news.
