Todd Morrow Tops Super Late Model Action at Cleveland
Chattanooga, Tennessee (07/15/15) – Todd Morrow enjoyed a great outing at Cleveland Speedway (Cleveland, Tennessee) on Saturday night, where he piloted his brand-new A-Plus Collision Center #T1 Platinum Chassis Super Late Model to the feature win.
“Not only is exciting to visit victory lane again, but it’s especially exciting to do it in this new Platinum Race Car,” said Morrow. “I really think we have something special here with this design, and it means a lot to see all of this hard work culminate with a win.”
On Saturday night Todd made the short trip to Cleveland Speedway (Cleveland, Tennessee), competing in the Super Late Model division. It proved to be a great night for the Chattanooga, Tennessee racer as he captured his 2nd victory of the season in the Late Model Division. Overpowering pole-sitter, Skip Arp early in the race, Morrow went on to score a victory in the 25-lap feature with Arp and Lamar Scoggins rounding out the podium. 

A night earlier Morrow visited Boyd’s Speedway (Ringgold, Georgia) for another United Crate Racing Alliance (UCRA) event. Battling for the $2,500 top prize against a field of 41 Crate Late Models, Todd earned his way into the feature event via preliminary action.  With 24 entries engaged for the UCRA A-Main event, Morrow retired with handling issues to a 21st place finish

Dillard conquering hunger in Hunt for the USMTS Casey's Cup powered by S&S Fishing & Rental
ROBELINE, La.-Cade Dillard of Robeline, La., is one of three United States Modified Touring Series competitors that will comprise the Casey's Crew during this year's Hunt for the USMTS Casey's Cup powered by S&S Fishing & Rental.

Each driver will carry an associate sponsorship from Casey's General Stores during the championship series and primary sponsorship from one of three popular brands available in Casey's General Store locations across America.

Dillard will be looking to satisfy his hunger for the USMTS National Championship with sponsorship from Snickers-the Official Candy Bar of the USMTS.

Snickers is the world's biggest selling candy bar ... simple as that. Crammed with peanuts, caramel and nougat then coated with milk chocolate, Snickers quickly became one of the planet's favorite treats after its introduction in 1930. And it is still at the top, 75 years later. Pick up a Snickers today at Casey's General Stores and visit them online at www.snickers.com to learn more.

Dillard, started racing in 2005 at Sabine (La.) Motor Speedway and won the Rookie of the Year Award and track championship that year. In ten years, he has more than 100 career feature wins, including eight in 2009 driving an asphalt late model. Some of his highlight-reel wins include the $5,000-to-win Deuces Wild, Spooky 50, Fall Southern Showdown, Doris Dowden Memorial and last year's Dirt Track World Championship at the Texas Motor Speedway.

In 2014, he captured the USMTS Rookie of the Year title and notched his career-first USMTS win in November during the USMTS Winter Nationals at the Ark-La-Tex Speedway in Vivian, La. He won his first USMTS Casey's Cup points race earlier this season at the Crawford County Speedway in Denison, Iowa.

Dillard drives the No. 97 LG21 chassis powered by Geddes Racing Engines. Crew members include Dakota Wyatt, Tyler Roark, Will Gunter and Greg Dillard. The team's sponsors include Lonestar Hydro & Maintenance, Fox's Pizza, Zymbom Energy Drink, Nichols Home Decor, Chris Brown Racing and LG21 Racecars, NAPA Auto Parts, Performance Graphix, Scotty Carnline Electric, W.A.R. Shocks, Geddes Racing Engines, Hypercoil Springs and Moran Trucking, with special thanks to his mom and dad, the Gunter family and the Comeaux family. To learn more check out www.cadedillard.com.

A first in motorsports, the unique partnership between the USMTS and Casey's General Stores directly benefits competitors through sponsorship of their teams. Throughout the Hunt for the USMTS Casey's Cup, fans can enjoy appearances by these drivers at local Casey's General Store locations, as well as related branded spin-off merchandise such as apparel, autograph cards and more.

In addition to financial support from each sponsor, all three drivers will utilize a new custom driver suit courtesy of Velocita USA Premium Motorsports Apparel (www.velocita-usa.com) and each racecar will be colorful and professionally detailed with a colorful wrap from Forty9 Designs (www.forty9designs.com) and Performance Graphix (www.performancegfx.com).

Drivers in the Casey's Crew are selected based on several criteria including, but not limited to, accomplishments both inside and outside of the cockpit, popularity among both fans and fellow competitors and the ability to represent themselves, the USMTS and Casey's General Stores and their participating brands in a positive manner.
