Feathers Dominates in Surprise Limited Late Model Visit to Hagerstown

In little more than a week, Feathers and his team took the bare bones chassis and made it race-ready with a limited engine under the hood.

“The difference from Monday to Saturday was unbelievable.  My guys and sponsors are truly amazing.”, Feathers said of the effort by his team.

Feathers took his McFarland Custom Painting & Wall Coverings, George’s Used Cars, Martin’s Pumping, North River Farm, Feathers & Son’s Roofing, Leggett Engine Research, Coffelt Graphics, Shane McDowell Racing, Fox Racing Shox No.27 to Hagerstown Speedway on Saturday to put it to the test.

You might have noticed the number change from his usual No.20 that adorns the sides of his super late model.

“That’s the number I first started racing with, so I just thought I would bring it back for this car.”, Feathers explained.

Feathers was originally slated to start 7th in his 8-lap heat race but lineup adjustments put him inside row two for the green flag.  From the start it was clear the newly built machine was up to the task.  Feathers drove into 2nd on the opening lap, then on lap six he drove by race-long leader Kyle Lear to take over the lead.  He went on to win by 1.8 seconds.

The Winchester, VA native showed more of the same in the main event.  Once again he took the green from inside row three.  It took him only three laps to claim the top spot and he dominated the rest of the way, winning by 1.96 seconds.
