Bailes rounds out podium in Mike Duvall Memorial with AK Race Cars

Pushing the event back to Sunday afternoon with persistent rain showers on Saturday, Ross Bailes was one of 22 Cherokee Chief Late Model entries at Cherokee Speedway (Gaffney, S.C.) on Sunday morning for the Mike Duvall Memorial.

Behind the wheel of the AK Race Cars No. 11 machine, Bailes drove to a runner-up finish in his heat race and started fourth in the $10,000-to-win main event. With the track locking down very early, Ross only made up one spot and landed on the podium in third behind Joseph Joiner and Trent Ivey.
