Last time?
Three weeks ago, Josh Berry and Zane Smith stole headlines in the Late Model Stock and Super Late Model divisions respectively. It was the first career CARS Tour victory for both drivers. The championship standings for both tours consolidated considerably as Myatt Snider inched to one point of Brayton Haws in the perimeter rail division while Kyle Grissom got to within eight of Cole Timm in the straight railed machines.
