Seawright won three of the four UCRA 604/Crate Late Model races this year, beginning back in February pre-COVID19 with the annual BAMA BRAWL. Jimmy Elliott of Cleveland won a Friday nighter in June, which oddly enough helped him collect his second UCRA National Championship (worth $5,000) as he finished sixth Saturday night.

Unofficially Elliott finished three points ahead of Jason Cardwell of Knoxville, whom earned the 2020 Rookie of the Year title. Saturday's runner-up Kasey Hall of Geraldine, AL was 4th over in the National Points standings just behind Kenny Kizzar of Soddy Daisy. Kizzar was fifth in the race Saturday just behind Colten Jackson of Chatsworth and Jason Welshan of Maryville.

Many racers pulled double duty Saturday racing in either Super Late Model or 602/Sportsman. Seawright pocketed $2,000 for the UCRA victory and went on to take the $3,000 SLM money as well. Soddy Daisy's Jordan Rodabaugh was second to Seawright and Welshan was third overall. Seawright overall led 90 laps in the WITCHY FIFTY two races pocketing $5,000 for his efforts.

Fort Payne Motor Speedway will kick back into gear the weekend after the 2021 Daytona 500 for the annual BAMA BRAWL presented by Red Line Synthetic Oil.

Overnight rain in Fyffe, Alabama has left the facility heavily saturated, forcing officials to postpone the event.

As steady rain from the remnants of Hurricane Delta continues, track and series officials have postponed the Larry Kyle Memorial. Officials are evaluating all options for a make-up date. Further details will be released as they become available.

The series will compete for $2,000 to-Win along with FPMS's local division, to be announced at a later date.

A special intermission TRUNK OR TREAT will be hosted by all the racers in attendance for kids of all ages on the front straightaway and the Good Witch of Alabama will be on-hand for special prizes and goodies.
