Racers Collect Checks During Cupid Shuffle Shootout

Alphabetically they may be last, but Womack, Yerger, and Wiggins were top of the line during the Cupid Shuffle Shootout Practice Tree Spectacular.

BENSON, NC – Forget expensive dinners, roses, and chocolates. What better way to spend Valentine’s Day weekend than winning cash and race entries during the Cupid Shuffle Shootout Practice Tree Spectacular?

Event creators Anthony Walton and Clayton Roberts kept racers out of the doghouse seeing as the event was Friday and Saturday only, leaving Sunday for date night. Nick Womack, Brian Yerger Jr, and Dawson Wiggins took home big wins over the weekend!

Friday Night Warmup

Friday’s warmup race saw Nick Womack earn the $3,000 win over Matt Edwards who claimed $750 for his runner up efforts.

Saturday Shootouts

In the Bottom Bulb Shootout, Dawson Wiggins took the win over last year’s main event winner, Jonathon McCandless. McCandless earned $200 cash while Wiggins picked up a weekend entry into Loose Rocker’s St. Patrick’s Footbrake Triple 10’s.

In the Top Bulb Shootout final, Nick Womack claims another win this time over Stevie Dustin. Dustin gets the $200 runner up prize, while Womack earns a weekend entry into Loose Rocker’s Colonial Super Pro Triple 10’s.

“The Heartbreaker” Main Event Saturday

Stevie “Sidewinder” Dustin returns to the final round and claims a $1,500 runner up beside Brian Yerger, Jr. It’s impressive to note that Dustin has earned five checks in the two year history of the Cupid Shuffle Shootout.

Yerger earns $7,500 for his win, and since he was leaving off the bottom bulb he also won an entry into Loose Rocker’s ATI Bigfoot $75K. Both of these young men have been faithful competitors in the Corona Lockdown Online Practice Tree Challenge.

An Extra Surprise

In a generous and unannounced shootout, one lucky winner would walk away with a free weekend entry into Loose Rocker’s St. Patrick’s 300 at GALOT Motorsports Park.

Joe Foley earned the entry, which is valued at $2,000, by defeating Shawn Carpenter in the final round.

Anthony Walton extends a special thank you to R3 Ronnie Robert’s Racing and his family for providing an awesome facility for his and Clayton’s event. He also tells us we can expect the Cupid Shuffle Shootout Practice Tree Spectacular to return in 2022, so stay tuned for details.
