Turner, Ray winners at Southern New Mexico Speedway

LAS CRUCES, N.M.—It was a special night at the Southern New Mexico Speedway on Saturday as we went racing for Josh Jackson. Jackson is recovering like the true champion he is and is now in Denver for rehab. Everything the track made tonight is going straight to the Jackson family. We love you buddy and your presence is missed around here at the track. Remain #37STRONG and we will all be right there with you.

USRA B-Mods rumbling out now as these dirt dogs are going 25 laps tonight. The 3 Gregory Gorham fends off a fight from the 15x early and will lead the first 5 laps way out! Jammin Jimmy Ray is on a rail and coming hard but a big distance with 19 to go. We got bumpin and bangin, fender-bending action in the pack for 6th and caution will come out for the 5x and 94 getting together. Back to green and the 3 like a rocket away from the field! 14 to go and Jimmy Ray is back on the gas and headed toward the front but the 7c of John Carney Sr. and 52 Paddy Rush have come to play. The 9 is going low in 3 and out of 4 it’s Jammin Jimmy Ray with an incredible move and to the lead at the line! The 7c is going to work on the 3 for second but they will both need a caution if there is any hopes of catching Jimmy Ray tonight! 10 to go and miracle for the field as we have a caution. Bunch them together and Jimmy Ray has to give up that big lead. 9 to go and Jimmy Ray leads the 7c and 3 but Fireball Donovan Flores is working high and low into 4th! 52tx Paddy Rush isn’t going to give up that easily and we got a battle for 4th as he darts back around into 4th. 5 to go and Jimmy Ray in his own zip code tonight. A clean last 4 laps and it’s the 9 of Jammin' Jimmy Ray taking a solid win tonight and sweeping the weekend in the USRA B-Mods. John Carney Sr. holds onto second again after fighting off a hard charging Gregory Gorham in third.

USRA Stock Cars with a big A Main tonight as we will give these guys 25 laps. We are about to go green and its time to fins out if these guys can even go 25 laps without killing each other. The 13 of Victor Colorbio will be quick on the start but the 0 of Lloyd Turner has the speed tonight. Unluckily for the 0 because as he makes the pass we got caution and it’ll be a complete restart. Seems like everyone took some notes from that first start because this one has a little different results as the 5x of Rick Boelter leading lap 1. We got 2 complete and the 0 is there for the lead again. The 5x and 0 going nose and tail all the way around. 3 complete and big wreck front stretch. The 11 and the 00ET getting together hard but everyone ok as we sit under red. 22 to go on this restart and the 5x is going way out again. 19 to go and the 3H of Noah Hollingshead is in third and charging but caution again. This time for the 42. The 5x is starting good again but now Hollingshead into second! The 3H will have to do it again though because it’s a caution before they complete that lap. Hollingshead will do it again on the restart but still 19 to go. Boelter leading still but 17 to go and the 3H is closing. The battle for third between the 0 and 74J Jason Josselyn is heating up and now they are catching the leaders to make this fun. 12 to go and Hollingshead gaining speed into turn 1 but no drive off. The top 3 running within a second of each other but the 5x is giving it throttle now. Lappers in the way but Boelter around easily and gaining a little more room on the 3H now. 6 to go and Boelter has pulled again as Turner pushes that 0 machine hard around the outside! They are battling hard and loosing the leader but 5 to go and caution comes out. The 5x will have to gain that big lead again but Hollingshead and Turner are coming and not backing down. 3 to go and Lloyd Turner around the 3H in the middle while Hollingshead is down low. At the stripe it’s Hollingshead coming back even and into turn 1 they will have crazy speed and they split the 5x for the lead!! The 0 will come out of the battle in 4 with the white flag lead but Hollingshead gonna dive low into 4 and give it one last attempt! It won’t stick tonight and at the checkered flag it’s the 0 of Lloyd Turner with an amazing 3 wide pass for the win! The 3H will finish a strong second tonight and the 5x coming home with third.

Don’t miss next weekend as we go racing all over again. Gates open and 5:30 with racing starting at 7:45 for the normal weekly racing. See you there.
