Late season success
in the Southern Tier
MAC Motorsports
found late season success this weekend at a new track for driver
Mike McCollum. McCollum drove the #2 358 Modified from his
18th place starting position to a strong 5th place finish in a
feature full of cautions.
Thanks to support
from a fellow racer and friend, Jim Corcoran, Mike McCollum was
able to resurrect his racing program for the end of the
season. Corcoran, owner of Corcoran Motorsports, provided
one of his Wally Feihl powered small blocks to the MAC
Motorsports team for racing until the motor is sold.
For a change of pace
and venue, McCollum traveled north to the Southern Tier's
Woodhull Raceway Big Block/ Small Block Shootout on October
4th. Starting deep in the heat, McCollum survived several
incidents to take the last transfer spot on the last lap.
At feature time, the
#2 Modified rolled off 18th and worked in between multiple
cautions to gain positions up through the field. The
Corocoran Motorsports engine was strong and McCollum's car was
handling well as it navigated the high banks at Woodhull.
After a frustrating and abrupt end to his regular season at Penn
Can Speedway due to engine woes, McCollum and his MAC
Motorsports team enjoyed his first top 5 of the season.
As the week
progresses, McCollum may make back to back appearances at
Woodhull depending upon the sale of the Corocoran Motorsports
engine. If you are interested in inquiring about the motor
and other equipment for sale from Corcoran Motorsports, please
contact Mike McCollum at 570-470-2523 for details and contact
information.
See you at the
track!
