Jacob Allen Nets $20K in Exciting Deuces Wild Duel at Golden Isles




It doesn't matter if you're a Sprint Car fan, Late Model fan, or NASCAR fan, you had to enjoy Saturday's High Limit Racing A-Main at Golden Isles Speedway.


In a non-stop 25-lapper that took 6 minutes and 37 seconds, Jacob Allen outran Tyler Courtney and Justin Peck after multiple lead changes through lap traffic to score a $20,000 payday in the Deuces Wild finale.


Starting from the pole and chasing his third-straight High Limit Racing win, many considered "Sunshine" Tyler Courtney to be the heavy favorite when the lineup dropped, but the dynamic quickly changed when the green flag flew as third-starting Allen and second-starting Peck both drove by him on Lap 1.


What ensued was a 25-lap game of cat and mouse as the trio of High Limit full-timers chases each other through traffic all while battling a technical 4/10-mile surface at Golden Isles Speedway.


Officially, Allen led the opening 10 laps with Peck controlling laps 11-19, and Allen getting back by him to lead laps 20-25 as the Shark Racing pilot and son of National Sprint Car Hall of Famer, Bobby Allen, earned his first-career High Limit Racing victory to the tune of a cool $20,000. Fans at the track and at-home watching on FloRacing rejoiced as any Allen win is always a popular one.


Tyler Courtney's hat trick fell one spot short as the Clauson-Marshall Racing, NOS Energy Drink #7BC finished P2 at the checkered flag for an $8,000 runner-up. He'll enjoy the month-off in March with an 18-point lead in the High Limit Racing championship.


After a rough go in the season-opening show at East Bay Raceway Park, Justin Peck recovered nicely with back-to-back podium finishes at Golden Isles Speedway. The Buch Motorsports #13 finished P3 both nights and has now found his way into the top-10 of the point standings.


Rico Abreu earned his season-best finish with a P4 result for the #24, while Spencer Bayston made it four-for-four top-10 runs and back-to-back top-five finishes for the CJB Motorsports #5.


THE ALL-IN NOTEBOOK (2/24/24) Golden Isles Speedway (Waynesville, GA)

By virtue of a podium finish in Thursday's preliminary A-Main, Tyler Courtney (1st), Brent Marks (2nd), and Justin Peck (3rd) were already locked-in to Saturday's Heat Races and forewent Qualifying. Marks was fastest in Dirt Draft Hot Laps at 13.152 seconds.


Spencer Bayston, of Lebanon, IN, earned the Capitol Renegade QuickTime Award. He circled the Golden Isles 4/10-mile in 13.025 seconds aboard his CJB Motorsports, TrueTimber #5. Bayston backed that up by fending off Brad Sweet to win TJ Forged Heat One. Fellow Indiana native, Parker Price-Miller of Kokomo, IN, followed him by taking DMI Heat Two over Rico Abreu. Jacob Allen rallied from behind to beat Anthony Macri in the third and final BR Motorsports Heat Three. After drawing the ace in the redraw, Tyler Courtney won his second-straight FK Rod Ends Dash to earn the pole position.
