After a night filled with money-hungry racing and Mother Nature joining the fun, the 2023 Volusia Speedway Park season opener was full of excitement.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After five Features, Dustin Carter, Chris Olmstead, Jimmy Wagner, Tommy Hill, and Chuck Frater went to Volusia Speedway Park Victory Lane for the first time in the 2023 season.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

604 Late Models<\/b><\/p>\n

Dustin Carter\u2019s victory Saturday night marked a special moment for the Decatur, GA driver.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He scored his first Volusia 604 Late Model win after a 25-lap, $2,000 to win Feature and dedicated it to his close friend, Gary Terry, who passed away eight years ago on April 12.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThis one means a lot,\u201d Carter said. \u201cIt\u2019s been eight years since (Gary) passed, and we always do a Coors Light and a shot of Fireball, and I didn\u2019t get a chance to yet because I wasn\u2019t feeling to well, but I\u2019ll make sure I get one in tonight. I\u2019m gonna saver this one a little bit, and I gotta dedicate this one to (Gary).\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Carter started on the outside of the front row in the Feature and jumped to the lead off Turn 2 on the first lap. From that point on, Carter had to manage lap traffic, a two-lap shootout, and a closing Derike Bennett en route to being the first winner in the inaugural Volusia Month of Money.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe didn\u2019t get a good pill draw tonight,\u201d Carter pointed out. \u201cStarted fifth (in the Heat Race), drove to second, and finally got lucky on the invert so we started outside pole. Good clean racing for everybody and I\u2019m going to savor this one a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jacksonville, FL\u2019s Derike Bennett finished second after racing close behind Carter for all 25 laps. 2022 Volusia 604 Late Model champion Joe Kump completed the podium after starting the Feature in sixth place. Deland, FL\u2019s Tuck Trentham finished fourth, giving him a well-earned top-five finish to start the season. Rounding out the top five in the Feature was Glen St. Mary, FL\u2019s Brandon Wells.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    3\/4 Modifieds<\/b><\/p>\n

    Chris Olmstead also saw his fight through adversities pay off Saturday night by winning his first points paying race.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The Deland, FL driver, who won his first race at last December\u2019s Battle in Barberville, started the race in fourth. Slowly making up ground towards the lead, he battled with Orange City, FL\u2019s Wade Olmsted for the top spot, eventually grabbing it after multiple laps of side-by-side action.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    From that point on, Olmstead set sail with clear dirt ahead of him, besting Wade and a hard-charging Dustin Peterson to win the 3\/4 Modified Feature.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \u201cI really wanted to get this win with the first race in the books,\u201d Olmstead said. \u201c(I wanted) a good start in the points because it will be a long season and you have to grind it out.\u201d<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Seventeen cars made the trip to Volusia Speedway Park on Saturday, marking it as the most attended race in the division\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \u201cThis class is really stout,\u201d Olmstead said. \u201cBefore the first race, I was saying that we could have eight or nine drivers winning every week, and it was so much fun out there. Racing with Wade (Olmsted) was fun, and I could hear Dustin (Peterson) closing in the whole race. Thanks to Flying Hilbilly Racing, Tad and Wade (Olmsted), my wife for helping make all this come true and everyone that puts a part to make this happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Peterson, from DeLeon Springs, FL, took home second place after making his way up the field from a ninth-place starting spot. Wade Olmsted grabbed third after fiercely competing with Olmstead and Peterson throughout the night. Port Orange, FL\u2019s Jesse Powers was the hard charger of the Feature, going from last to fourth in the Feature. Orange City, FL\u2019s Rusty Young completed the top five in what was an eventful Feature to kick off the 3\/4 Modifieds season.<\/p>\n

      Pick Your Part Street Stocks<\/b><\/p>\n

      Saturday began a new era for the Street Stocks, with Pick Your Part joining as the title sponsor for the division in 2023.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Dade City, FL\u2019s Jimmy Wagner led from the start to the finish of the 20-lap Feature, earning his second win at Volusia Speedway Park in 2023.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      The driver of the #17W had an emotional Victory Lane, dedicating the win to a close friend who had passed away the day before.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      \u201cI had a good buddy of mine pass away yesterday,\u201d Wagner said. \u201cI told his son when I found out that I was going to win (this Feature) for him. I know he\u2019s up there looking down, and I drove with a mission tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

      Second place went to Palatka, FL\u2019s Jerrid Bennett, who stayed close behind Wagner throughout the Feature. Third place belonged to Miami, FL\u2019s Bruce Griffin, the 2022 Volusia Pick Your Part Street Stocks champion. Completing the top five was Okeechobee, FL\u2019s David McCormack, and Ft. Lauderdale, FL\u2019s Rick O\u2019Steen.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Thunder Stocks<\/b><\/p>\n

        New season, new challengers. That would be the motto to describe the 20-lap Thunder Stocks Feature from Saturday night.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Tommy Hill, making his first start at Volusia Speedway Park, won his first Feature in exciting fashion.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Hill, hailing from Clewiston, FL, started from the outside of the front row, grabbing the lead by the end of the first lap. From then on, he had to fend off familiar faces like Tanner Thomas, Ron Adams, and Travis Staats to earn his place in Victory Lane.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        \u201cI\u2019ve came here maybe 20 years,\u201d Hill said. \u201cHaven\u2019t got a lot of laps here and a lot more heartbreak than anything else. Led laps, won Heats, but never a Feature. I\u2019m four hours from (Volusia) and this (win) made it all worthwhile.\u201d<\/p>\n

        \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

        Oviedo, FL\u2019s Tanner Thomas finished a close second place after battling Hill for the top spot for the entire Feature. Thomas lurked behind, waiting for his prey to fumble. That would never come to be.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Daytona Beach, FL\u2019s Adams finished third after having to fend for his position throughout the Feature. A podium will make a good start for a championship run if he continues to be a threat like he was on Saturday. Fourth went to Umatilla, FL\u2019s Staats, who drove in his father, Charlie Staats\u2019, #9AR Thunder Stock. Geneva, FL\u2019s Charles King, made up the top five with his fifth-place finish.<\/p>\n

          Gladiators<\/b><\/p>\n

          The return of the Gladiators was worth the wait as the 15-lap Feature became a paint-trading brawl across the field.<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          In the end, St. Augustine, FL\u2019s Chuck Frater returned to Victory Lane after competing for the win with Brandon Gaither and a hornets\u2019 nest of Gladiators around him to the end.<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          \u201cWe just got this (Gladiator) together this week,\u201d Frater said. \u201cIt was a lot of fun, we were getting together with (Gaither), so I was more upset with our new car being doored, but I don\u2019t think he meant to do it on purpose. It was good, fun racing, and thanks to everyone that helps out with me and this team.\u201d<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          The driver Frater mentioned, New Symrna Beach, FL\u2019s Brandon Gaither, was the one that had him running for his money, racing side-by-side and tapping doors while fighting for the win. Gaither blew a tire on the last lap, but a third-place finish and his competitive efforts made the Gladiators Feature worth the return.<\/p>\n

          \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

          Finishing second was Pierson, FL\u2019s Nathan Rhoades, who competed close by Frater and Gaither when the racing got close. Completing the night\u2019s top five were Orange City, FL\u2019s CJ Creech, and Hudson, FL\u2019s Mike Budka Jr.<\/p>\n
