Brandon Overton won the richest one-day prize in dirt late model racing history on Sunday night.
The 27-year-old Evans, Georgia racer captured the General Tire Hillbilly Hundred for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series at Tyler County Speedway in Middlebourne, West Virginia.
Overton took the lead from home-state favorite Jared Hawkins on lap 70 and led the rest of the way to the $50,000 payday. Hawkins managed to hold off Mason Zeigler for second. Zeigler came home in third with Jimmy Owens and Gregg Satterlee completing the top five drivers.
Overton received congratulations from his crew after a hard-earned victory as he entered Victory Lane.
“I can’t quite shaking,” he said. “We just had the worst two nights of racing I think I have ever had. Last week at Mansfield we didn’t even make the race. It’s just a miserable feeling. We ran some regional races and did pretty good and we thought we were going to come up here and show everybody what we are made of. We got beat down pretty quick. There are just different parts of the country where you need to race different. Last night we were about to get lapped and to come back tonight and win, this is great.”
Tyler Erb, Jonathan Davenport, Scott Bloomquist, Don O’Neal and Dennis Erb, Jr. rounded out the top ten.
