November 1, 2019-Dacusville, South Carolina-By Gray Sutherland

The candy toss Friday wasn’t the only treat at Foothills on Friday night as drivers and fans responded to the call for Halloween Havoc. The lineup card at the time of heat races included 23 total classes, 5 of which included double digit fields, 135 entries, and 80 drivers set up for the special themed Michael Myers Halloween checks and plenty of cash prizes on the line. Summer points champions were honored at intermission as well to shine the spotlight on those drivers whose hard work prevailed through the summer. Check out that here. It was a long night but the racing backed up the hype and provided a good show for all. Special guest Michael Myers took a break from his Halloween activities to help out in the flag stand and Malcolm Reynolds took a break from dodging Alliance patrols to take a turn announcing kart races.

Quick Hits

It was another big breakthrough for Jordan White who claimed Junior Predator driving any from Eli Bolding and last time out winner Miyalla Torres. Cole Timms would grab a momentous win by passing Carter Pitts late in Pee Wee B. It was also a good night if you were behind the wheel of the #111 as Tommy Jernigan drove it to the win in Predator 375 and also Predator 325 for the double. Jernigan would fall one spot short of the Predator triple sweep finishing 2nd to Nick McDonald on the #99. The Mohawk was once again a prevalent feature as Summer Champion in Clone 425 and 450, Ernie Bob, won both again for another double. Kamden Bryant in the little mohawk won Pee Wee C for the mohawk trifecta. Over to the Junior classes for a moment and those headlines would be dominated by the #25 of Coletrain Palmer. Palmer also doubled as he included Junior 2 with his Junior 3 victory. Kyle Heitz also returned to victory lane at Foothills claiming the win in an 11 kart field. Out of the Box 375 had the largest field of the night though with 15 karts  on the main event running order.

A Look Ahead

The next confirmed date at Foothills is November 23rd for the first Winter Series Points date. Any schedule updates will come from the official Facebook group @Foothills Speedway.
