Magnolia Rained Out for April 29

With heavy rain already falling and more forecasted for Saturday, Magnolia Motor Speedway has been the decision to cancel the Weekly Racing Series Event scheduled for Saturday, April 29.

We now turn our attention to the Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series versus the Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series Super Late Model doubleheader on May 12-13.

Magnolia’s weekend doubleheader will serve as the second and third rounds of the first-year Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series, which launched April 7 at All-Tech Raceway in Lake City, Fla., with Ricky Thornton Jr. claiming a $20,000 victory. Of the 40 drivers that competed in the tour’s season opener, 20 have indicated they plan to compete for the tour’s 2023 championship.

Wil Herrington of Hawkinsville, Ga., is the early leader in the series title chase with Joseph Joiner of Milton, Fla., second and Payton Freeman of Commerce, Ga., third. Dalton Cook of Columbus, Ga., and Josh Putnam of Florence, Ala., round out the current top five. Trey Mills of St. Augustine, Fla., is the top Aces Renovation Rookie of the Year contender in sixth.

The Governor’s Cup was the first-ever event held at Magnolia when the track opened in 2004. Longtime Mississippi racer Rodney Wing etched his name in the history books by claiming that inaugural event, and in doing so, started a trend of notable drivers winning the Governor’s Cup. Billy Moyer, Chris Wall, Ronnie Johnson, Randy Weaver, Bub McCool, Spencer Hughes, and Riley Hickman are all on the list of past Governor’s Cup winners.

Complete event details for the Governor’s Cup weekend, including support divisions, admission prices, schedule of events, and more, will be announced soon.
