Benoit shines in star studded field at The Outlaw Track

Benoit shines in star studded field at The Outlaw Track

(CENTERVILLE, AR) May 27, 2022 – Cody Benoit continued his winning ways this time, not in Florida, but in Arkansas at the Centerville Super Speedway. Benoit picked up the cool $1,000 payday amongst racing 4 of the top 10 in national IMCA STARS Mod Lite point standings in the first annual ‘Prelude to the Madness’.

Benoit won his heat race but passing points had him starting on the outside of row 2 for the 20 lap A Main. Nashville, Arkansas’ Jace Reid had his B’s Quick Stop/BBR #45 on the pole alongside him was the 9 of Riley Clem from Bakersfield, CA. Clem had to get a push start from the grid and would have started tailback, due to IMCA rules, but was never able to get it fired. That bumped up the outside row and Benoit was able to get out in front and paced the field.

Reid challenged early and pulled to the infield with fuel problems around lap 9 and only two cautions marred the (20) lapper. The race hard charger was definitely the 43 of Matthew Bauldwin from Little Rock, AR, he drove from the last row starting spot and needed a caution to give him a shot but he was able to snatch the runner up finish. Darrick Hubbard, Jr, and national IMCA STARS points leader, #29A Gary DeWitt from Mesa, Arizona finished fourth. Moving up 5 spots to finish fifth was the #94PK of Paul McCollett. McCollet is driving the #94PK in honor of his son, Caleb, a mod lite driver, who tragically lost his life last year.

Overall, (17) cars checked in to the event and all are expected to head South tonight, joined by a slew of others, to the qualifying night of the first annual Mod Lite Mayhem at Diamond Park Speedway paying $3,000 to win and $300 to start the Sunday (30) lap A Main.
