What won the race: Polesitter Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., capped off a successful three-day stay at Tri-City Speedway with a victory in Saturday night's 30-lap UMP DIRTcar Late Model feature. The $2,000 score gave him two wins sandwiching a runner-up finish in the full-fender portion of the 3/8-mile track's Summit Modified Nationals.
Key notes: Sheppard reached the finish line ahead of Oakwood, Ill.'s Bobby Pierce, who went winless during the tripleheader but left Tri-City with the 2014 UMP DIRTcar Late Model national title secured. ... Thursday's race drew 42 entrants and 50 competed on Friday, but Saturday's field was down to 31. ... UMP Super Late Models served as the support division this weekend for Tri-City's Modified Mania. ... Saturday's UMP modified feature paid $5,000 to the winner.
On the move: Pierce started eighth and finished second.
Winner's sponsors: Sheppard's Rocket Chassis has a Pro Power engine and is sponsored by Valvoline, Kid's Castle Learning Center, Petroff Towing and Keyser Mfg.
