Jonathan Davenport drove Donald Bradsher's No. 93 to victory.
What won the race: Second-starting Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga., led all in the way in his Donald Bradsher-borrowed ride for a $20,000 victory in the Turkey 100 at the Swainsboro Raceway. The Crate Late Model victory gave Davenport his 23rd victory in his 60th start during a Lucas Oil title season that saw him earn nearly $700,000 in purse and points earnings.
Quotable: "I don't anybody could've dreamed a season like this. This is a career season really," Davenport said in victory lane. "Everything we've accomplished start to finish has just been phenomenal."
Key notes: Polesitter Ross Bailes and Brandon Overton split time in the second spot with Bailes slipping to fourth with about 30 laps to go before regaining the runner-up spot late. ... Thirteen of 26 starters completed 100 laps. ... Among early retirees was Casey Roberts, who was caught up in a lap-59 accident while driving Ahnna Parkhurst's Team Dillon Racing entry. ... Chip Brindle ran among the top five but exited on lap 71. ... Along with the $20,000 purse, Davenport picked up $1,000 for leading four bonus laps worth $250 apiece. ... The Turkey 100 is among the richest Crate Late Model races of the season. ... World of Outlaws Late Model Series Rookie of the Year Brandon Overton is piloting the Kar House No. 54.
On the move: Dennis Franklin of Gaffney, S.C., advanced from his ninth starting position to finish fourth.
Winner's sponsors: The No. 93 Paylor's Motorsports Longhorn Chassis is sponsored by Mega Plumbing, Mega Electrical Services, and Bobby Taylor Oil Co.
