Riley Hickman Earns Richest Payday at Duck River!

It was a memorable weekend for Riley Hickman and his #R1 team as he claimed the richest payday of his career in the annual Deep Fried 75 at Duck River Raceway Park (Wheel, Tennessee).
A cold November weekend saw thirty-three Super Late Models converged on the 1/4 mile oval for the event, which was sanctioned by the Southern Nationals Bonus Series. Hickman posted the quickest lap in his group during time trials on Friday evening to lock into the pole position for his heat race. Unfortunately, freezing track conditions would force the scheduled heat races to be moved to Saturday afternoon.

When racing resumed on Saturday, Riley charged to a convincing heat race victory, earning him the outside-front-row starting spot alongside Ray Cook for the 75 lap finale. When the race went green, Hickman assumed the point and never looked back, leading flag-to-flag to bag the $11,000 payday over Dale McDowell, Steve Casebolt, Josh Putnam and Anthony Burroughs.
