Runner-up finish in Mike Duvall Memorial at Cherokee

Continuing on his pursuit for the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series title, Brandon Sheppard and Rocket1 Racing visited Cherokee Speedway (Gaffney, S.C.) on Friday for the Mike Duvall Memorial. With 29 Late Models on hand, Sheppard’s 10-lap heat win promoted him into the redraw. Rolling off fourth for the feature, Brandon gained two spots in the 40-lapper to register a second-place finish. He trailed Brandon Overton across the line with Daulton Wilson, Chris Ferguson, and Chris Madden rounding out the Top-5.

The following night at Senoia Raceway (Senoia, Ga.), Sheppard edged his way into the finale with the fourth-and-final transfer spot in his heat. With $10,000 on the line, Brandon passed seven cars in the 40-lap affair to place sixth.

After his performances over the weekend, Sheppard has mathematically clinched the World of Outlaws points title heading into the World Finals on November 5th & 6th.
