Ames Competes in Annual Tennessee Memorial Race
Next
up for the Dylan Ames Racing team was a trip to the historic
Cleveland Speedway in Cleveland, Tennessee on Saturday night,
May 12 for the 35th Annual 'Tennessee Memorial Race.' The Southern
All Stars Dirt Racing Series (SAS) presided over the $3,500
to win program, which drew a healthy 27 car field. Dylan Ames
laid down the fourteenth quickest lap in SAS qualifying and
later finished second in his B-Main to transfer into the 40-lap
main event. During the course of the caution-free 'Tennessee
Memorial Race,' Dylan lacked some forward drive and side bite
on the slick track condition and posted a sixteenth place effort.

Ames Battles Back to Earn Top Ten in $3k at Moulton
Dylan
Ames, of Harvest, Alabama, once again invaded the Moulton Speedway
in Moulton, Alabama on Saturday evening, April 28. A strong
field of competitors converged on Moulton for the $3,000 to
win, unsanctioned program. Dylan was very impressive during
the qualifying session, as he posted the second fastest time
in his group, which locked him into the outside of the second
row in the A-Main. On a very rough racetrack, Dylan ran fourth
early in the race, but unfortunately hooked a rut and was slung
off of the backstretch. He resumed the race at the tail end
of the field and stormed back towards the front to salvage a
ninth place performance. Complete results can be accessed online

Ames Tackles Two-Day Spring Throw Down at Magnolia
Dylan Ames and the #77a team returned to action over the April
13-14 weekend at the Magnolia Motor Speedway in Columbus, Mississippi.
The two-day 'Spring Throw Down' drew a healthy field of Super
Late Models to "The Mag." On Friday night, Dylan timed
in ninth fastest in his group during qualifying and ran fifth
in his B-Main to earn the twenty-fourth starting spot in the
$2,000 to win feature event. The Harvest, Alabama native was
then able to drive past eight competitors during the A-Main
to score a sixteenth place effort.
Night two of the 'Spring Throw Down' drew several
more heavy-hitters and all eyes were fixated on the $8,000 payday.
Dylan finished seventh in both his heat race and his B-Main,
which narrowly kept him out of the 50-lap main event. Complete

Dylan Ames Starts Season with Top Five Finishes!!!
The Dylan Ames Racing team kicked off their 2012 racing season
on March 31-April 1 in Columbus, Mississippi. On Saturday night
at the Columbus Speedway, Dylan Ames qualified fifth fastest
of the twelve car field and later rolled off from the inside
of the third row in the 25-lap main event. The Harvest, Alabama
hotshoe ran amongst the leaders throughout the entire distance
and eventually landed a strong fourth place performance at the
track deemed as the "Baddest Bullring in the South."
On Sunday, the #77a team traveled across town
to the Magnolia Motor Speedway for another weekly Super Late
Model event. Dylan laid down the second quickest lap of the
twenty-two entrants during the qualifying session, but later
cut down a left rear tire in the dash. After starting the 25-lapper
from the sixth spot, Dylan picked off two competitors en route
to another solid fourth place showing. The team is very happy
with their new Rocket Chassis by GW Performance and is looking
forward to the rest of the 2012 campaign!
