Overton 12th in Sunshine Nationals opener at Volusia
With wet weather and saturated grounds cancelling Thursday’s opener, Brandon Overton and the Riggs Motorsports team joined 56 competitors at Volusia Speedway Park (Barberville, Fla.) on Friday evening for the opening round of the sixth annual Sunshine Nationals.
Aboard the NAPA Auto Parts No. 76 Late Model, Overton outran fellow front-row starter Carson Ferguson in his heat race to pick up the eight-lap victory. However, his pursuit of the $12,000 preliminary payday in Friday’s feature was hampered by motor issues. Despite the setbacks, Brandon managed to salvage a 12th-place finish in the 35-lapper.
On Saturday, Brandon raced into the $20,000-to-win Sunshine Nationals finale with B-Main victory. Pinned on the 10th row, Overton was an early retiree from the 50-lap affair on lap 34.
