Runner-up finish in LOLMDS opener at Golden Isles Speedway

To kick off the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) slate, Rocket1 Racing and house car pilot Brandon Sheppard traveled to Golden Isles Speedway (Brunswick, Ga.) on Thursday evening for the Super Bowl of Racing. With 47 Late Models entered, Sheppard followed up the third-fastest time in his group with an eight-lap heat win. After sharing the lead with Kyle Larson and Tyler Erb in the first half of the 40-lapper, Brandon gained momentum late in the race through the middle groove to reel in a second-place finish. He followed Devin Moran to the checkers with Larson, Erb, and Tim McCreadie rounding out the Top-5. (Heath Lawson photo)

On Friday, Brandon’s second-place finish in his heat race positioned him eighth on the starting grid for the $12,000-to-win A-Main. Surrendering one spot in the 50-lap affair, Sheppard recorded a ninth-place outing.

For the finale on Saturday, Sheppard laid down the second-fastest lap in his time trial group before placing second in his heat. With $15,000 on the line in the feature, Brandon improved one spot to register a ninth-place finish.
