Doorcars to the front!

Nick Hastings wins Wednesday's Summit Racing Equipment Triple 50K at the 25th Anniversary of the Mickey Thompson Million Dollar Race.

Nick’s game plan is to pull double-duty at the 25th Annual Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels Million Dollar Race, and that plan is already paying off as the bottom and top bulb racer won Wednesday's Summit Racing Equipment Triple 50 at Montgomery Raceway Park. Nick packaged several great runs in both the bottom-bulb class and top-bulb to land him in the final round against Bailey Ferraro who just came off a fresh win last weekend at Glynn Smith’s Chevrolet Bracket Series.

In the final round, Nick was .013 on the reaction and dead—on, behind the wheel of his unique wheel-standing Pontiac T1000. What's even more impressive is that Hastings was in the final of both bottom-bulb and the main top-bulb class for $50K. As Jared Pennington said, “Hastings definitely earned this win.”

Hastings said "I'm kind of pumped up because I have my boys from back home here watching. It feels really good to win and it's a big deal for me to win here, because it’s my first at this race. It would be nice to carry over some momentum to the big show."

"A lot of help goes into making this happen for me. I just have to hold up my end," Hastings added.

Jeff Ledford was the lone semi-finalist. Brian Whitworth, Britt Cummings, and TJ Pruitt were the quarter-finalists.

Thursday's Summit Racing Equipment Triple 50 kicks off with new entry time runs ‪at 9AM‬ and the Mickey Thompson Million Main Event is on Friday along with the Laris Motorsports Insurance Racer Appreciation Party ‪on Friday night‬.

Racers had the opportunity to watch the race live from the staging lanes thanks to the Glynn Smith Chevrolet jumbotron, everyone at the track and home was able to tune in thanks to Vintage Trailer Sales' Live Feed provided by MotorManiaTV.com.

Bailey Ferraro continues his week long hot streak by winning Thursday’s Summit Racing Equipment Triple 50K at the 25th Anniversary of the Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels Million Dollar Race.

Ferraro has put on an amazing performance so far by making final-round appearances in both of the Summit Triple 50’s. Ferraro's .004 reaction time in the quarter-finals earned him the bye run in the semis. He followed that up with a .000 light on his bye run which gave him lane choice in the final over Josh Burrow. Not wanting to repeat the outcome of yesterday’s final round, Ferraro was successful at sealing the deal in his second final round attempt. Josh Burrow fell short in the final as the winner was decided on the starting line.

Ferraro said "this win feels unreal and it’s hard to believe right now. After racing in the finals last night, it wasn't until 5th or 6th round today where I actually believed that I had another chance to race in another final here. I honestly couldn't believe my win-light came on, I had to look at the timeslip a couple of times. I've have had a rough two months of racing and wasn't sure when things were going to turn around, so this win feels really good. I couldn't do it without my dad and the McCarty family, I can't thank them enough.” Ferraro added.

Dillon Eason was the lone semi-finalist, while Blake Richardson, Nick Folk and Nathan Martin were defeated in the quarter-finals.

Ferraro & Burrow will be entering the main event Million Dollar Race tomorrow where they will be battling for the prestigious victory.

Kevin Brannon wins the 25th Annual Million Dollar Drag Race

The 25th Annual Mickey Thompson Performance Tires and Wheels Million Dollar race is in the books and Kevin Brannon added his name to the list of Million winners in the hall of fame. Brannon marched his Maddox Race Cars dragster into the winner's circle with a perfect reaction time in the final round against veteran racer Tom Dauber. It was an emotional final round win for Brannon who stopped half-way down the track during his return and gave thanks to God by kneeling outside of his car. Brannon then proceeded to his winner-circle celebration.

Brannon said "It feels great. I have to give all the glory to god. I said if I ever win something big like this, I'm going to stop and show him that's he's number one. So, that’s what I did."

"Both Tom and Gary Williams are tough to beat and are racers that I respect. I knew I had to be on my game and be as tough as I could be in both rounds," Brannon added.

Nick Folk and Ricky "Bull Dog" Adkins were the semi-finalists. The quarter-finals included Hayden Smith, Hunter Patton, Tucker Kansellar, and Gary Williams.

Highlights of the 25th Anniversary of the Million Dollar Race include the Laris Motorports Racer Appreciation Dinner and Kenny Dixon won the 2020 golf-cart drawing that was pulled from a random tech card.

Today’s weather forecast (Sunsday) called for no rain and we were eager to conclude our last Summit Racing Equipment 50k. We woke up to gray skies and misting rain, due to these unfortunate circumstances we have made the difficult decision to cancel the last of the Triple 50’s. We apologize for any inconvenience Mother Nature has inflicted. We’d like to thank everyone for their continued support, safe travels home to all.
