Josh Berry said last week Martinsville Speedway could be a frustrating place after he’s come so close to winning there before.
Now he has a reason to celebrate – 44,000 reasons to be exact.
Berry started from the pole, led every lap and won both stages to take home a record-setting payday of $44,000 and the famous Grandfather Clock after dominating the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 Saturday.
Berry was able to pull away late and hold off Lee Pulliam and Timothy Peters who finished second and third, respectively.
“I learned a lot last year here at Martinsville,” said Berry, who was competing in the prestigious Late Model race for the eighth time. “We were fortunate enough to build a gap with the two racing behind us there at the end.
“This is a great day and I’m so happy to give Dale (Earnhardt) Jr., Kelly Earnhardt-Miller and everyone at JR Motorsports their first win in this prestigious race.”
