Moran Sweeps Weekend;
Pockets $20,000 in Home State!!!
(July
25, 2021) Getting retribution from last weekend's bad
luck, Devin Moran swept a pair of Super Late Model specials in
his home state of Ohio on July 23-24 to pocket $20,000 in winnings!
On Friday night in the 'Jeff Norris Memorial' at Hilltop Speedway
in Millersburg, Ohio, Devin clicked off the fastest lap overall
during qualifying, won his heat race, and later led all fifty
circuits in the unsanctioned headliner to claim the $10,000 top
prize ahead of Tyler Carpenter, Jacob Hawkins, Freddy Carpenter,
and Dave Hess, Jr.
At Muskingum County Speedway in Zanesville, Ohio on Saturday
evening, the annual 'Jim Dunn Memorial' was on tap and Devin once
again set Fast Time in qualifying before securing a heat race
triumph. The nearby Dresden, Ohio star then wired the Valvoline
Iron-Man Late Model Series field in the 40-lap feature to bag
another $10,000 ahead of a top five that consisted of runner-up
Jacob Hawkins, Gregg Satterlee, Mason Zeigler, and Jared Hawkins.
