Brandon Hightower Launches New Website; Top Five at Springfield
by Ben Shelton
NATCHITOCHES, Louisiana (March 24) – 16-year-old, Brandon Hightower from Natchitoches, Louisiana is the latest addition to the MSR Mafia team. A new website has been launched for the talented young driver at www.BrandonHightower.com .
The 2015 season will see Hightower piloting both the Advanced Motorsports #B52 Rocket by Litton Super Late Model as well as the Mahfouz Motorsports #B52 Express Limited Modified.
After seeing the scheduled races around home get washed away Brandon made the long trek to Springfield Raceway (Springfield, Missouri) to race on Saturday evening.
The $2,000-to-win program, which was sanctioned by the MARS DIRTcar Series, drew a field of thirty Super Late Models to the 1/4-mile oval. With passing points determining the feature line-up, Brandon raced to a fourth place finish in his heat race to lock into the eleventh starting position on the feature grid. Despite heavy and rough track conditions, Hightower marched forward to a fourth place finish behind race winner, Tony Jackson Jr., Jesse Stovall, and Jeremy Payne. Dustin Walker rounded out the top five finishers.
“That was definitely the roughest track I’ve ever seen, but my car handled great,” said Hightower. “It just felt great to finally get to race again.”
Complete results from the event are available at www.MARSRacingSeries.com .
This weekend, March 27th-28th, Hightower is slated to race at Baton Rouge Raceway (Baton Rouge, Louisiana) with the P&W Sales SUPR tour. A pair of $2,000-to-win races will be contested. For more information on the events please visit www.SUPRRacing.com .
