10:23

Tonight’s race featured two lead changes among two drivers. Augie Grill led laps 1-75. Pollard then paced the field from 76 to 83 and Grill led, albeit it by no more than a carlength, from lap 84 to 125.

10:10

9:53

CHECKERED: Augie Grill somehow, someway holds off Bubba Pollard to win the Southern Super Series 125. Third went to Garvey, fourth to Hemric, fifth to Nasse.

9:53

WHITE: Down to the wire in Montgomery.

9:53

Lap 123: Two to go. Pollard trying outside, now the crossover.

9:52

Lap 122: Three to go. Grill makes a daring three wide move in traffic and buys himself a carlength.

9:52

Lap 121: Grill and Pollard are just bouncing all over each other.

9:52

Lap 120: Five to go. Grill and Pollard lock horns.

9:51

Lap 119: Pollard is able to get to Grill’s left rear quarter panel at corner exit, but nothing more yet.

9:51

Lap 118: Pollard lost a carlength in the traffic but seems to pull up to Grill at will.

9:50

Lap 117: Reuse will also pull over for the leaders.

9:50

9:50

9:48

Lap 107: Bobby Knox by Robbins for sixth.

9:47

Lap 101: In last September’s Super Late Model race at Montgomery, Grill dominated the first half of the race. Pollard then seemed to come on strong at the end of the race. But Pollard and Grill made contact, sending both to the rear and Garvey to the win. An eerie replay may be setting up as Garvey closes on the sparring leaders.

9:45

Lap 100: Twenty-five laps to go. Pollard and Grill are battling to become the first three-time winner in series history

9:45

Lap 99: Grill leads Pollard by the width of a piece of paper. Don’t count out Garvey and Hemric either, they are lurking about half a straight back and are turning in lap times slightly faster than Grill.

9:41

Lap 87: Grissom was the cause of that three-wide action as he is off the pace.

9:41

Lap 86: Garvey to third and we are three-wide in the back.

9:40

RESTART: Grill and Pollard play nice this time, Grill to the lead by a carlength on Pollard.

9:40

Grill and Pollard are obviously trying to make a point with each other, and they both pass the pace car to not give any ground to the other.

9:39

RESTART & YELLOW: Grill either had something happen or Pollard jumped it. Either way, series officials didn’t like the restart and we will double them up and try that again.

9:38

Wilson is also done for the day as we doubled for the restart.

9:21

9:21

Three was the post-break invert. That means it will be Pollard, Garvey, and Grill now leading the field once more.

9:20

Nemechek did not make the cutoff and will go to the rear.

9:20

Spencer Davis will not return for the second half of this race.

9:19

Grissom got rolling, looks like Nemechek may not make it.

9:19

Same for Nemechek, he’s still on jackstands.

9:19

Teams are being told they have thirty seconds left and Kyle Grissom’s team is in a hurry as they may not make the clock.

9:17

Starting to hear the cars refire as the break comes to an end.

It’s a plain dice roll, so 6 is the max, 1 is the min.

9:13

Comment From Donald

What is the most they can invert?

9:11

Of course, we still have 50 laps to go and will have a different running order after the dice roll.

9:11

Yes, Grill entered the race third in points. But Grill thus far stands to make the most sizeable impact.

9:10

Comment From Guest

Isn’t Hemric 2nd in points not Grill??

9:07

Lap 75: Competition break. 10 points will go to Augie Grill, 8 to Mike Garvey, 6 to Bubba Pollard, 4 to Nemechek, and 2 for Hemric.

9:06

Lap 74: One to go to the break. Augie Grill led to the break in the first race here and then survived the invert to claim the victory. Can he make it 2-for-2 in SSS at Montgomery this year?

9:05

Lap 70: Five to go for the break. Augie Grill looks to collect ten bonus points for being the halfway leader. Barring a caution, he will not be challenge before the break.

9:05

TJ Reaid is reporting that a track bar mount broke on the 41 machine. Tough break for a driver who had won in his last two starts.

9:04

9:02

Lap 63: Chet Morrisson and Allen Karnes have lost the lead lap.

9:02

Lap 60: Competition break comes in fifteen laps. Remember, points are awarded for finishing in the top-five, so there is an emphasis to finish there before the break’s invert.

9:01

Lap 57: Garvey tried pushing Nemechek up in the middle of the corner and finally takes P2.

9:00

Lap 56: Garvey draws up to Nemechek’s door for second.

Did the 129 begin the race a lap down or did the leaders catch him that quickly? Sorry if I missed it.

Lap 13: Grill continues to strengthen his hold on the lead. Six carlengths now as Nemechek begins to pressure Reaid for second.

2013 Pro Late Model standout Justin South may be missing a few races in the next few weeks. South had his truck and trailer stolen from Hamner Racing Engines in Alabama last week. The trailer was gutted and then burned, but the truck was taken and has not been recovered as of yet. South lost fire suits, shocks, springs, and racing accessories. South told 51 that basically everything he owned, other then the car in the shop, was stolen. Any information should be reported to Hamner Racing engines as they look to track down the guilty party.

4:57

It appears the second round of practice for the local divisions will be forgone and the track drying is now being done to ensure the scheduled 5:30 PM start of qualifying.

4:51

The quick shower did do enough to dampen the race track so we are into track drying efforts.

4:35

Local practice is being stopped for a moment as a brief sun shower has popped up over the speedway.

4:33

Stephen Nasse says the car is as good as its been here in a while. Nasse ran this car as a back up in May and after working the bugs out its pretty good for tonight.

John Hunter Nemechek has earned the third most points in the last three races and has been getting stronger every week. Nemechek fourth in the overall standings.

Augie Grill won the race here last time out, but we are not sure if he will get to be on track for practice. The 112 rolled in just as the driver’s meeting ended. We’ll see if they can hit the track in the first hour.
