Spencer Hughes sweeps MSCCS weekend at Magnolia Motor Speedway
For the third time early into the 2024 campaign, Spencer Hughes visited Victory Lane with the JCM Motorsports / Yellow Hammer Design & Construction No. 19m Dread River Distilling Co. / Cliburn Tank Lines / Neon Bubbles Car Wash / XR1 Rocket Chassis / Durham Racing Engine Super Late Model in Victory Lane.
His latest trip to the Winner’s Circle was worth $3,000 and came on Saturday evening at Johnny Stokes’ Magnolia Motor Speedway.
“Magnolia (Motor Speedway) is a place that’ll always be special to me. I’ve won races there in multiple divisions, but it’s the place I got my first big Super Late Model win back in 2017 (with the Southern All-Stars),” Hughes said. “We were fast off the trailer and carried speed the whole night. I can’t say enough about JCM Motorsports and this awesome car they give me every night. I’m grateful to be the guy, who gets to sit in the driver’s seat.”
Getting some notes for the track's Clash at the Mag event in June, Spencer Hughes and the JCM Motorsports team joined the Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series at Magnolia Motor Speedway (Columbus, Miss.) on Saturday afternoon.
With 29 Late Models register for battle, Hughes was the overall fast qualifier and dominated the dash to earn the pole position for the 40-lap main event. With $3,000 on the line, Spencer dominated the feature and led all 40-laps en route to his third victory of the season.
Hughes topped Chad Thrash and Oakley Johns who joined him on the podium.

The week kicks off on Wednesday and Thursday with $20,000-to-win Castrol FloRacing Night in America presented by Kubota events at Spoon River Speedway (Banner, Ill.) and Lincoln (Ill.) Speedway.
