Albany Motor Speedway

Lloyd grabs season's first NLMS victory

From correspondent reports

ALBANY, Ga. (Aug. 31) — Polesitter Ivedent Lloyd Jr. of Ocala, Fla., led every lap of Saturday’s Hedman Hedders National Late Model Series event at Albany Motor Speedway to earn $3,000 for his first victory of the season on the Georgia-based tour for spec-engine Late Models.

Hometown driver Cale Simons moved from fourth to second early in the 50-lapper but could never seriously challenge the leader. He settled for the runner-up finish after holding off late pressure from Tyler Ivey of Tallahassee, Fla., who finished third.

Kitt Sealy of Moultrie, Ga., was fourth at the finish, while NLMS points leader Jason Fitzgerald, the Jacksonville, Fla., driver who claimed the tour's May 25 program at Albany, settled for fifth as the tour made its second and final visit to Albany’s third-mile oval this season.

Notes: Lloyd’s Snow Bros. Race Car is powered by a United Racing Engine with sponsorship from IBS Machine Products, Augusta Delivery Service, United Racing Supply and Kar-House Radiators. ... Lloyd claimed his third overall victory of the season. ... Daniel Bailey tagged the wall on the 45th lap; Kyle Bridges and Tristan Sealy tangled on the ensuing restart. ... Bridges later spun to draw a yellow on the 31st lap. ... Cody Simons looped his car in turns three and four to bring out a lap-43 yellow. ... Fast qualifier Jay Johnson slowed with a flat tire on lap 17. ... The feature lineup was set directly from qualifying; the top six qualifiers redrew for starting spots with the remaining drivers starting straight up. ... The tour made is its second and final visit of the season to Albany. ... Saturday's event was originally set for July 4, but Mother Nature intervened and postponed the program. ... The series concludes its 2013 campaign Oct. 24-25 at Waycross (Ga.) Motor Speedway.
