General Information:

The drivers meeting is slated for 6:30pm with hot laps to follow soon afterward.

Weather is expected to be cool and cloudy.

This race is dubbed the Shamrock.

Earl Pearson, Jr. won this race in 2017. Chris Madden won the inaugural LOLMDS event held at Boyd’s in 2016.

Jonathan Davenport currently leads the Lucas Oil standings over Josh Richards, Kyle Bronson, Earl Pearson, Jr., Brandon Sheppard, Jimmy Owens, Hudson O’Neal, Gregg Satterlee, Tim McCreadie, Dennis Erb, Jr., Brandon Overton, Don O’Neal, Darrell Lanigan, Scott Bloomquist and Bobby Pierce.

This will be the sixth points paying LOLMDS race of 2018. The series has not raced since February 11.

Because of weather related postponements and cancellations, there has yet to be a time this season in which there has been a schedule conflict between the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series and the World of Outlaws Late Model Series. That will continue this weekend in the races set for Boyd’s and East Alabama Motor Speedway.

6:30- Drivers meeting underway.

7:00- Hot laps underway.
