Henry Cooper Races to Top Five Finish in Doyle Lott Memorial

by Ben Shelton
STAR, Mississippi (August 20) – Henry Cooper took his #14 Team Country Pleasin/Black Diamond/Vic Hill Racing Engine Super Late Model into battle on Saturday night at Jackson Motor Speedway (Byram, Mississippi) and came away with a fourth place finish.

The $2,500-to-win, Doyle Lott Memorial was sanctioned by the Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series (MSCCS) Super Late Models and drew a strong field of twenty-three entries to the 1/4 mile, gumbo oval.

Henry qualified fourth in his group during time trials, sending him to the dash to determine the top eight starting spot for the feature. Cooper finish fifth in the dash to lock into the fifth starting spot in the main event. During the course of the feature Henrybattled around the top five throughout the event before crossing the finish line in fourth behind race winner, Chris Wall, David Breazeale, and Chad Thrash.

"We probably had better than a fifth place car, but the driver got tired," laughed Cooper. "All jokes aside this new hot rod is really good, and hopefully some wins are just around the corner."
