CARS Tours set for Aaron’s 250 at Florence Motor Speedway
MOORESVILLE, NC – The 2020 Solid Rock Carriers CARS Tour season is winding down as both the Late Model Stock CARS and Super Late Models head to Florence Motor Speedway in Timmonsville, South Carolina for the Aaron’s 250, the penultimate race in the calendar for both divisions.
Many of the Super Late Models will race for the second time in as many weeks after competing in the U.S. Short Track Nationals at Bristol Motor Speedway last Saturday night, while the Late Model Stocks return to action after their most recent race at Carteret County Speedway on Sept. 12. Saturday’s race at Florence is the first time either series has raced in South Carolina in over two years.
Layne Riggs became the first repeat winner in the 2020 LMSC season with his victory at Carteret County. Championship contenders Corey Heim and Jared Fryar finished second and third. Riggs now trails Fryar by seven points in the LMSC points.
In the Super Late Models, defending champion Matt Craig leads by 18 points over Sammy Smith. However, Trevor Noles comes into Florence with the most momentum after winning the U.S. Short Track Nationals at Bristol on Sept. 26.
