BRL Late Model Invitational S28R10 | Hickory Motor Speedway

Stephen Spies and Tre Blohm set the field in motion for Season 28, Round 10 at Hickory Motor Speedway. Spies quickly took off while Blohm cleared the field to secure second place. A battle for third developed between Mark Hertzog and Jeffery Hardin, with Hertzog gaining an advantage on the outside. He then began to challenge Blohm for second but eventually settled into single file along with the top five drivers.

The outside line proved effective for drivers looking to make passes, resulting in some exciting mid-pack racing as competitors advanced. Up front, Hertzog managed to pass Blohm on Lap 22 to take second place. A caution flew on Lap 35, leading to a restart with Spies and Hertzog at the front. Spies launched ahead once again, and Hertzog used the outside momentum to keep 2nd.

Hardin began rolling on the outside, aiming to contest Blohm for third, but a caution on Lap 43 paused the action momentarily. Racing resumed on Lap 48 with Spies and Hertzog leading the field. Spies maintained his lead while Hertzog settled into second place, with Hardin close behind in third.

Another caution occurred on Lap 60. Spies and Hertzog once again restarted the race on Lap 66, with Spies continuing his impressive restarts. Hertzog faced pressure from Hardin but managed to hold onto second place after a strong move on the outside down the backstretch. After a few more cautions, with just ten laps to go, Spies remained in front, followed by Hardin in second and Lowell Jewell in third. They finished the race in that order, with Spies leading from start to finish to secure his victory at Hickory.

Be sure to join us for more exciting racing action as we conclude Season 28 with a race at Five Flags Speedway next Saturday, December 14th, at 7:40 PM ET.
