The World of Outlaws Late Model Series kicked off the 2015 season Friday Night in Sylvania, Georgia at the Screven Motorsports Complex.
An exciting night lead to a 50-lap main event, which also got started with a bang. Rodney Sanders flipped his car after catching the cushion on lap four causing a red flag. Sanders fortunately rose from the car to be ok.
Brandon Overton lead the field back to the green flag with Josh Richards getting a great start and challenging for the lead, however a yellow flag flew very shortly after the restart.
Halfway through, Overton was battling Casebolt for first and Richards was taking on Clanton for third.
Another caution came out with 19 to go, making the field come together once more. Casebolt was challenging Overton for the lead, and finally made the move to pass him with four laps to go. He held on to grab the checkered flag and points lead. Casebolt also grabbed a $10,000 prize for the feature win.
