Timothy Culp Lands First World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series Win - Devin Moran Claims Best Finish of Season

 

KILGORE, TX- March 26, 2017- Timothy "Hollywood" Culp etched his name in the book of World of Outlaws Craftsman® Late Model Series Winners with his victory at LoneStar Speedway. Of the six races this season, the Series has seen six different drivers win.

 

Culp got a taste of Victory Lane two nights earlier at Whytnot Motorsports Park where he finished second behind Brandon Sheppard.

 

The Rocket Chassis that took him to Victory Lane in Texas has only hit the track three-times. Culp and his new ride have found their way to the podium all three times, racking up one second-place finish and two wins.

 

"Wow is all I can say," said Culp. "To be able to run with these guys is amazing let alone win. It's exceeded all of my expectations. As soon as we unloaded [this car] brand new it's been a rocket. It's lived up to its name. It's been unreal really, for a guy like me to come out here and be able to run with the Outlaws. A World of Outlaws win is crazy. It's going to take a few days for this one to sink in."

 

Culp didn't have a smooth sail to Victory Lane, as 2017 Rookie of the Year contender Devin Moran held on to the lead from green until lap 25 of the 40 lap Feature. Moran had the best run of his Outlaw career tonight at LoneStar Speedway as he won his heat, pulled the pole position, and had the second fastest car of the night during qualifying.

 

"It's awesome to get out here and get a podium finish and hopefully we can keep the ball rolling next week," said Moran. "I wanted [my first win] to be tonight because of where we started but it is what it is."

 

The toughest heartbreak of the night went to Texas-native, Morgan Bagley. Bagley brought out the guns in Texas as he found his way to Sheppard's door during the Feature knocking for the final position on the podium. The pair ran door-to-door for several laps but with only laps six to go Bagley got a left rear flat. He decided that instead of changing his tire, which would cause him to head to the back of the field, that he would stay in fourth and give it a whirl. Come the checkers he had fallen back to the 19th position.

 

With Bagley's hometown being only 15-minutes from LoneStar Speedway there was a fair share of "MoBags" gear in the crowd and he sure put on a show for his fans as he had his best run of the season.

 

Although Bagley gave it his best shot, it was Sheppard who held on tight to the third position. The current points leader couldn't help but smile in Victory Lane as he knew what was in store next for the World of Outlaws. His home track, Farmer City Raceway.

 

The World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series will pack up and hit the road to Illinois for the Illini 100 at Farmer City Raceway on March 31-April 1. Tickets for the event are available online.
