Clay Fisher Capitalizes to Win 15th Annual CCSDS Gumbo Nationals Opener
By Ben Shelton (Greenville, MS) -- Capitalizing on Logan Martin’s bad luck in lapped traffic, Clay Fisher inherited the lead on lap 26 and went on to win opener of the 15th annual Gumbo Nationals resumes for the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) presented by Lucas Oil this weekend.
The victory was worth $4,000 for the Dewitt, Arkansas racer.
As the feature, which was postponed on October 1 by rain, went green outside front row starter Logan Martin bolted to the lead with NewVisionCustomShirts.com Pole Sitter, Clay Fisher in tow.
Martin paced the field for the first 25 circuits before cutting down a tire after contact with the wall with just five laps remaining as he battled through lapped traffic.
Fisher inherited the lead and led the way for the final circuits to claim his first series win of the year and the second of his career.
Hunter Rasdon, Kyle Beard, Josh Putnam, and Mike Palasini Jr. completed the Top-5 finishers.
On Friday evening the $4,000-to-win feature will be held with the following line-up:
On Saturday evening a complete $8,000-to-win CCSDS program will be held, which will serve as the 2021 season finale for the tour.
The outcome of the big weekend will determine the 2021 COMP Cams Super Dirt Series Super Late Model Champion. Current Midwest Sheet Metal Marked Man, B.J. Robinson holds a 45-marker advantage over defending CCSDS Champion Logan Martin entering the doubleheader. Kyle Beard is 64 markers back from the top spot with Brian Rickman, Morgan Bagley, Hunter Rasdon, Scott Crigler, Brayden Proctor, and Chad Mallett rounding out the current standings.
Saturday’s program is headlined by a complete $8,000-to-win CCSDS program.
