Top Five
for Davenport in High Bank Heist Opener
(May
17, 2026) The #49 team was in the pit area at Eagle
Raceway in Eagle, Nebraska from May 14-16 for the Malvern Bank 'High
Bank Heist,' which was sanctioned by the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt
Series. Unfortunately, Mother Nature took home a pair of victories
and only the $10,000 to win weekend lid lifter escaped inclement
weather.

in Group B during qualifying prior to placing second in his heat
race. After rolling off from the outside of the third row in the
40-lap main event, JD vaulted up to as high as second before a late
race restart shuffled him back to fifth at the checkered flag behind
only victor Hudson O'Neal, Ricky Thornton, Jr., Brandon Sheppard,
and Max Blair. Full results from the soggy weekend at Eagle Raceway
