2 min read
The 2022 Zimmer’s Service Center ULMS Late Model Series season came to an end Saturday night at Lernerville Speedway with the 14th annual Steel City Stampede. Michael Norris picked up his second consecutive ULMS Steel City Stampede victory.
Multi-time Lernerville Track Champion, Michael Norris led 29 of 30 laps in the ULMS sanctioned Late Model feature to capture the $3,500 winner’s check. Norris held off a hard charging Jared Miley who closed the gap on the leader as the laps wound down and was scored the leader on lap 27 of the 30-lap feature. But Norris quickly regained the lead as the duo came out of turn two and pulled away to a .565 second advantage at the checkered flag giving Norris his third overall Stampede Belt Buckle. Miley was second and was officially crowned the 2022 Zimmer’s Service Center ULMS Champion for the second time in his career, he was followed by Matt Lux in third, Ryan Montgomery was fourth after restarting the race from the tail as Logan Zarin completed the top-five.
‘We haven’t had the results to show it, but we’ve had a pretty solid year, and this is a good way to cap it off,’ Norris said in victory lane. ‘This car has been really good to me, but I feel like lately it’s been letting me down, I think it finally got its monkey off its back.’
