team wrapped up the 2024 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series campaign
on October 18-19 in the 44th Annual 'Dirt Track World Championship'

early in the distance before giving way to Tim McCreadie.
The Blairsville, Georgia standout then passed "T-Mac"
to regain the point on lap 64, but terminal engine woes the very
next lap forced the #49 pitside for the remainder of the 100-lapper.

and officially placed third in the final version of the LOLMDS point
standings behind only champion Ricky Thornton, Jr. and series runner-up
Devin Moran. Full results from the entire DTWC weekend can be accessed
