NeSmith Chevrolet Weekly Racing Series 2017 Week 21 Round Up

(August 14, 2017 - Cartersville, GA) - Jeremy Shaw has positioned himself atop the National Point standings at the end of Week 21 for the NeSmith Weekly Racing Series season. He holds a narrow two-point lead over Nebraska driver Josh Leonard, who is competing for his first season in NeSmith Late Model competition at both Junction Motor Speedway and Lexington Speedway in Nebraska. Both drivers will be in search of more wins during the remaining weeks to hopefully take command of the lead and land the $10,000 payday that goes to the National Champion.
