Nearly 60 Super Late Model race teams entered night #1 of the Wild West Shootout at Arizona Speedway Saturday for the $5,000 feature to kick start the 2021 season. Jonathan Davenport (# 49) of Blairsville, Georgia held off Ricky Thornton Jr. (# 20) for the first victory of the week of races.

If Davenport or any other racer put together consecutive victories while racing in the desert of Arizona, they could earn up to a quarter of a million dollars in bonus prize money.

Sunday's feature again pays $5,000 to the victor, heading towards next Saturday's $25,000-to-Win finale of the six-race mini series.
