Middleburg, Florida (12/02/13) – Saturday night was a great outing for Big Frog Motorsports as Mark Whitener clinched the 2013 United Dirt Late Model Championship Series (UDLMCS) Championship with a bang by scoring the $3,000 victory in the series’ season finale at North Florida Speedway (Lake City, Florida) in his #58 Big Frog Motorsports/Dave’s Towing/B&B/Barry Wright Produce Late Model!
Via a 2nd place finish in heat race action Whitener moved onto the redraw for the 40 lap, Harvey Jones Memorial feature, where he was the recipient of the 5th starting spot. A series of cautions plagued the initial attempts to get the race underway. However, when the green flag finally waved for good Whitener bolted from his 5th starting spot to the lead on the first lap.
Once out front Mark never looked back on his way to his 12th victory of the 2013 campaign, which was worth $3,000. In addition he claimed his third UDLMCS Championship in the last four seasons and his sixth overall title in four seasons.
“It was just an incredible night for our team,” commented Whitener. “To be able to claim the championship and the win in the same night is just awesome. I can’t thank Big Frog Motorsports and all of our great sponsors and fans enough for their great support!”
