by Ben Shelton
CLOVER, South Carolina (October 22) – Johnny Pursley entered the final Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series event of the 2013 season on Saturday night in his #09 Pursley Grading/Mastersbilt Super Late Model, and he came away with the $4,000 victory.

Fayetteville Motor Speedway (Fayetteville, North Carolina) played host to the series' final event of the season, and in qualifying for the race Pursley blazed to a lap of 17.431 seconds, which was two tenths faster than any other competitor to lock into the pole position for the 40 lap feature.  He was joined on the front row by Steve Blackburn, and it was Pursley, who bolted to the lead as the event went green.  He would go on to lead every lap of the feature to score his seventh win of 2013!  Blackburn, Dennis Franklin, Scott Shirey, and Dustin Mitchell rounded out the top five finishers.

Johnny finished 2nd in the final series standings behind champion, Dennis Franklin. Full results from the event and the final series' standings are available at www.CarolinaClash.com .

This weekend, October 26th-27th, Pursley will pull double duty at the inaugural King of the Carolinas event at Carolina Speedway (Gastonia, North Carolina).  On Saturday the NDRA Crate Late Models will battle for a $3,000 top prize, while Sunday's event will see Pursley chasing a $2,500 winner's check with the Roush Yates Limited Late Models.  For more information on the event, please visit www.CarolinaSpeedway.net .
