Mario Gresham
Double Duty in Southern Heritage Classic at Needmore Speedway
After taking a month off, Mario Gresham returned to the driver's seat of both his 604 and 602 Late Model at Needmore Speedway (Norman Park, Ga.) on Friday afternoon for the Southern Heritage Classic.
Out of 41 Crate Racin' USA entries, Gresham qualified eighth in his group before making up two spots in his heat to finish sixth. Finishing one spot out of a transfer in his B-Main, Mario took a provisional starting spot for Saturday's $10,000-to-win main event and gained five positions to record an 18th-place finish.
With a stout field of 40 602 Late Models also on hand, Gresham started outside pole of his heat race before a mechanical failure resulted in a DNF. Winning his B-Main on Saturday, Mario started 18th in the feature and finished just outside the Top-10 in 11th.
