Hello and happy weekend!
We have four profiles of 2025 pavement Late Model champions' seasons in this Friday Features edition.
Two touring titlists are featured: new Vore's Welding CRA Late Model Sportsman Series champion Cassten Everidge (#63; team photo) and Brady Bill in Wisconsin's second-year All-Star Limited Late Model Challenge. Neither of these two twentysomething-age racers won a feature in their designated tour, although Bill scored three wins outside of the All-Star banner and Everidge had his own (downplayed) highlights.
We're covering the spectrum of experience in California. Eric Schmidt's 2025 Super Late Model title at All American Speedway was his fifth at the Roseville bullring. And James Hamlin, who took the Junior Late Model crown at Madera Speedway, wasn't born when Schmidt scored his SRL Southwest Tour title in 2006.
Scroll down to the large-type underlined link near the bottom of this email to read this week's Friday Features! We will have some tidbits from last weekend's Chilly Willy 150 at Tucson Speedway in next Friday's release, perhaps with a note or two from this weekend's season opener at the Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
We hope everyone has a safe and happy weekend, especially those who are in the path of this weekend's winter storm. Since the ice-affected travel issues forced the postponement of SpeedFest at Cordele Motor Speedway, we'll have one more week of 2025 champion stories.
To continue seeing LMD releases (other than the Monday Digest) in your email box after next week, you'll need to subscribe at a cost of $30 per year. Any subscriptions taken for the rest of January (and for those who have already signed up) will be extended through the end of January in 2027.
The cost winds up being about 27-28 cents per release. And once you subscribe, we encourage suggestions from subscribers on topics for Thursday Throwback and Friday Features articles (Wednesday Winners subjects are more obvious).
Those wishing to subscribe may send checks to the address at the bottom of this email. We are also set up on Zelle and Venmo; please contact me for that information at this email address, jimcarsonlmd@gmail.com. PayPal is also an option but we'd have to email you an invoice. We will do our best to make it worth the $30 per year for the subscription.
Thank you for your support of Late Model Digest!
